32 and impotent - Two urologists refused me the implant. feeling very depressed..

vincentmh, first, really sorry to hear about your situation especially at your age. A question about your comment below -- who is them ? Meaning, is it the urologist that has the final say/approval for an implant, or, is it a hard rule in the health system that patients under a specific age can't get an implant ? That seems to be a big fork in the road.

absolutely, but i still give myself until end of 2026 to convince them.

Hi, ''them'' is the two urologists i saw (from the public system). private is out of my budget.

i dont know if its an ''hard rule'' but i know he told me he never implanted a patient as young as me. they are wayyy more conservative here.
I have another meeting in 6 months. i will try to push it more.

Sorry to hear you have to deal with so much on this. I went through my share of doctors and uros prior to mine. Keep up the fight till you find the one. Search and ask questions, call patients if you can before seeing your next. Hell as long as it takes to get into seeing a doc make an appointment for three of them.
You already have an unsatisfactory Doppler so ask that question about whether the doc has a problem doing surgery due to your age.
Carry on don’t stop.

that's the thing, the doctor who did my doppler said my result were fine and no venous leak or arterial problem detected. i was like ''man i did not even get an erection from the shot''.. and he is a reputed urologist in Montreal..

vincentmh, seems like I saw a list of Canadian urologists who are implant friendly on Franktalk not too long ago.

Anyone remember that list ?
