Men's health specialists
We offer care for a wide range of men's problems. They include low testosterone, erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, incontinence, benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatitis.
What we care for
Low testosterone
Testosterone is the male sex hormone made in the testicles. During puberty, testosterone helps boys grow facial hair, build muscle and develop a deeper voice. It’s also needed to make sperm.
Some men have low testosterone levels. This is called testosterone deficiency syndrome (TD) or low testosterone (low-T).

Peyronie’s disease
Peyronie’s disease is when the penis is damaged or hurt. When that happens, a scar forms. The scar can sometimes change the shape of the penis. The penis may curve, indent or become shorter. It can make it difficult to have sex.

Premature ejaculation
Premature ejaculation (PE) happens when a man ejaculates too quickly. A number of things can cause PE. There may be issues with the brain signals that rule sexual excitement. PE can happen with age. But age is not a direct cause of it.
You can get help for PE. Be honest with your doctor about symptoms so you can get the care you need.
Male incontinence
Male incontinence happens when a man can’t control when he pees. This causes him to leak urine. Millions of American men suffer from it.
Urinary incontinence isn’t a disease. It’s a symptom of a wide range of health problems.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an enlarged prostate. It’s not cancer and it doesn’t cause or lead to cancer. However, BPH and cancer can happen at the same time. BPH is common. Half of men between the ages of 51 and 60 in the United States have it.

Elevated prostate-specific antigen
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is made by the prostate gland. PSA tests are often used to check PSA levels in a man’s blood and screen for prostate cancer.
If the blood test comes back abnormal, your doctor may want to do a prostate biopsy. This will give your doctor more information and help determine if you need care.

Prostatitis
Prostatitis happens to the prostate. The prostate is a small gland in the male reproductive system. Its main job is to help make fluid to protect and feed sperm.
Prostatitis happens when a man has pain in and around the pelvis. It doesn’t always have a direct cause. But there are things that can raise your chances of having it.

Varicocele
Varicocele can happen in the male scrotum. A group of veins inside the scrotum can get bigger due to poor blood flow. Most of the time, this doesn’t cause problems. However, sometimes varicocele can cause pain or problems with fertility. In young boys, it can slow testicle growth.
