Philosophy:
I am board-certified urologist and microsurgeon who specializes in sexual and reproductive medicine and surgery. As part of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer CenterâÂÂs Survivorship Initiative, we have established a Male Sexual & Reproductive Medicine Program, which is devoted entirely to the care of men who have suffered sexual difficulties or fertility problems as a result of their cancer or cancer treatment. On the sexual and reproductive medicine team, I am joined by a nurse practitioner, a nurse, and a psychologist.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared that every human has the unalienable right to sexual health. At Memorial Sloan-Kettering, we recognize the importance of sexual function and fertility, and our goal is to permit men and couples to resume satisfactory sexual relations or preserve their fertility potential irrespective of their diagnosis or kinds of treatment they have received. We see more than 2,100 patients each year and specialize in the management of erectile dysfunction, Peyronie's disease, disorders of ejaculation and orgasm, low testosterone levels, male infertility, sperm extraction before and after cancer treatment, and penile implant, varicocele and penile reconstructive surgery.
We have a well-established penile rehabilitation program for men who have had radical pelvic surgery (radical prostatectomy, cystectomy, or rectal surgery) or pelvic radiation. This program is designed to minimize the negative impact these treatments have on a manâÂÂs long-term sexual function. In our fertility preservation program, we focus on educating men of reproductive age to bank sperm prior to chemotherapy. When this is not feasible, we perform sperm extraction from the testicle to maximize a manâÂÂs chance of being capable of fathering a child once his cancer is cured.
