Any Bionics from Arizona.

Postby hectorm64 » Sun Jan 24, 2021 8:01 pm

Hey guys;
Thank you so much, for the valuable information, you share in this forum.
You guys inspiring me to make a decision to get an implant. No more embarrassing moment.
I used to have so many questions.It was overwhelming
I have been reading a lot about you guys experiences and reading some articules and Penile implant studies that you guys have recommended.
I feel very well informed, prepared and more important with realistic expectations.
I am missing an important piece "an experienced surgeon in Arizona"
I am wondering, if somebody from Arizona has a very good experience with a penile implant surgeon here at the Valley.
Please any information would be greatly appreciate.

BTW: I have been doing the "Pre-op VED Therapy"

I use Ironwood (no puns) Urology in the Phoenix area and find them competant.
As on my signature, Dr Avila did my surgery.

I had no underlying issues and he did a great job sizing me.
Right at my first activation, I was at my lifelong size.

Two things I didn't like:
1. He refused to install the LGX since he was under the impression that LGX would be floppy at 18CM or longer.
I know we don't have the call for that. The CX is all right, but I believe I would have liked the LGX.

2. I got no follow up instructions but got all the meaningful info here on FT.
I also never got any papers or device ID from him. Also, no surgical notes.

Right now my doc there is Kevin Bigelow and he does inspire confidence.
I think I'd consult with Dr Bigelow.

I really can't comment on Dr Blick, but it sounds like some sort of assembly line practice.
I only base that on my instinct for what that's worth.

I just hit the 2 year mark and things are going very well with no issues.
