II was able to confirm today that my insurance will cover 90% of my implant surgery. After several months of reading all the posts on FT, I am reading to get the surgery. I am deciding between 3 surgeons (I have done phone calls with 2 out of 3 so far), and I feel I can't go wrong with any of them: Dr. Clavell, Dr. Kohler, and Dr. Levine. Please share any feedback or experience you may have with these surgeons.
The biggest concern now is deciding when to travel during the surge of COVID.

Re: Ready to become bionic brother......Choosing Surgeon and timing.
Where are you from? I just got surgery from Dr Tariq Hakky yesterday in Atlanta (will write a detailed post soon), and he did an amazing job. No pain except the burning sensation when I pee. He was able to fit a bigger implant (Titan 22cm) than what I was expecting. Very pleased with how it turned out so far. Have follow up on Monday.
A young guy in his early 30s from South Asia. Implanted Titan 22cm by Dr. Tariq Hakky in Atlanta (Dec 2020). Amazing doctor! No pain during recovery. My size is 5.75” x 4.6” which is better than pre-OP size of 5.6” x 4.5”. Hoping to gain more in future.

Congrats. Fun times ahead.
Read through some of my posts referencing Levine, use the search function and keyword. Short version: He's an absolute pro, a passionate technician with IPP, and an intensely good listener. Give me a holler on PM if you'd like to dig in more or even chat by phone, no problem.
54 yrs. Blessed with highly sexual 52 yr old wife. Pills 10 years, then 9 yrs Trimix. 28 cm Titan Touch XL 2019, Laurence Levine, Rush Univ Med Ctr, Chicago. Implant = nonstop fun. Hypogonadal, so also 10+ years testosterone replacement.

I am in Minnesota. I am planning to travel regardless of who I just choose. Thanks for the info on Dr. Hakky, I will check it out.
