Professional Qualifications and Background

Exciting breakthroughs for impotence provide men many ways to lead normal, fulfilling, sexually active lives. More and more men are speaking freely about sexual problems. People now recognize that it is no longer necessary to give up sexual pleasure just because they are getting older. Impotence or Erectile Dysfunction can be treated in a variety of ways: drug therapy, hormone therapy, external medical devices, and the Internal Penile PumpTM. My goal is to help my patients feel as normal as possible, with the treatment options available. Treatment is a success when patients and their partners regain the intimacy lost through sexual dysfunction and begin again to enjoy their normal, sexually active lives.
