Low-cost Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil) are available to our patients.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n New York Urology Specialists is one of the first urology practices to offer low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy<\/strong> for ED (ESWT) in the US. <\/p>\n Studies have found that shockwave therapy can induce improvement in vascular function<\/strong> of the blood vessels that supply blood to the penis.<\/p>\n Shockwave therapy<\/strong><\/a> has a good record of treating many medical conditions including kidney stones<\/a><\/strong> and tendinitis, with a good safety record.<\/p>\n Because erectile dysfunction is most commonly caused by vascular disease<\/a><\/strong> or abnormal function of the arteries and arterioles that bring blood to the penis, penile shockwave therapy can be an effective treatment option for men with vascular erectile dysfunction. In particular men with high blood pressure<\/a>, diabetes <\/a>and obesity <\/a>often have vascular ED and can benefit.<\/strong><\/p>\n Shockwave treatment of erectile dysfunction has a very good safety record<\/strong>. It has been used worldwide for a few years now and thousands of men have been treated successfully for erectile dysfunction<\/strong> with low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy<\/strong>. All treatments are associated with some risks. Relative to other treatment options, it appears that shockwave for ED<\/a> <\/strong>is relatively safe with no long-term side effects<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Shock wave therapy induces changes in the blood vessels<\/a><\/strong> to make them more responsive to sexual stimulation and also stimulates angiogenesis, the formation of tiny microscopic new blood vessels in the penis<\/strong>. Shockwave helps blood vessels to have a more normal response to hormones and nerve stimulation<\/a>.<\/strong> The effect of the shockwave is partially similar to the effect that medications such as Viagra and Cialis create in the penis.<\/p>\n This leads to improved blood flow to the penis. The result is that men are able to obtain erections more normally. Some men are able to get better erections without medications<\/strong>, other men are able to get better erections with the same or lower dose of medications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer specialized treatment for ED for men<\/strong>. Same-day appointments are available. New York Urology Specialists has the most effective shockwave therapy program<\/a><\/strong>, proven to work in randomized controlled studies. <\/p>\n Call\/text today: 1-646-663-5211<\/span><\/a><\/span> <\/span><\/strong>or <\/span>make an appointment<\/span><\/a> online. <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n We treat sexual and erection problems<\/a><\/strong> and offer comprehensive STD testing<\/a><\/strong> for infections. We treat penile problems in men<\/a><\/strong>, including phimosis, balanitis, penile irritation, and penile redness. We perform a no-scalpel vasectomy<\/strong>, vasectomy reversal, cosmetic circumcision<\/strong><\/a>, circumcision revision<\/a><\/strong>, penile frenuloplasty. We offer confidential<\/strong> appointments.<\/p>\n Our prices are ED treatment prices<\/a> are affordable with or without insurance<\/strong>. Low-cost<\/strong> Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil) are available to our patients. We offer free insurance verification<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Schedule an appointment<\/a> <\/strong>with our board-certified urologists to see if shockwave therapy for ED is a good option for you. To schedule a consultation<\/a>, please <\/a>contact us<\/a> or call\/text: 1-646-663-5211<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n With shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction, there is no need for lifelong treatment<\/strong>. Often 1 course of treatment spaced over a 3 month period will lead to long-term improvement in erectile function, in some patients for up to 2 years. However, studies show that continuous treatment helps to maintain the benefit of treatment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Periodic maintenance retreatment as part of maintenance therapy is beneficial<\/strong>. New York Urology Specialists<\/a><\/strong> evidence-based protocol for shockwave therapy for ED is associated with superior success rates<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n The number of treatments (induction therapy) and maintenance therapy is individualized to each patient based on the severity of underlying erectile dysfunction as well as vascular risk factors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Our protocol for low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy<\/strong> for ED<\/a> (ESWT) has proven to have over 80% effectiveness for patients who are good candidates for shockwave therapy.<\/p>\n For many men, shockwave treatment for impotence is as effective as medical treatment with medications<\/strong> such as Viagra (sildenafil), Cialis, Levitra (vardenafil), and Stendra. Many men treated with shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction find that they no longer need medications<\/strong> (Viagra, Cialis, Stendra, Levitra<\/a>, etc) to obtain and maintain an adequate erection. Other men find that they can get a better erection with medications after treatment with shockwave therapy<\/strong><\/a> then they could get with medications alone.<\/p>\n It is important to understand that not every man is a candidate for shockwave therapy<\/strong><\/a> and not every man will benefit from it.<\/p>\n For many men, shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction can be as effective or more effective than medications<\/strong> typically used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction<\/a><\/strong>. Unlike medications, with shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction there is no need to time sexual activity to medication use and sex can be more natural and spontaneous<\/strong>.<\/p>\n It is important to know that shockwave therapy works only for men who have an underlying vascular disease<\/strong>. For men who have erection problems as a result of nervous system dysfunction (anxiety, depression, multiple sclerosis), shockwave therapy will not work.<\/p>\n Most men report no side effects<\/strong> with low-energy shockwave therapy for ED. Occasional side effects of shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction include mild discomfort (tingling sensation<\/strong>) in the penis that may occur during treatment, usually during the first session. <\/p>\n For men who are not candidates for shockwave treatment or if shockwave therapy does not provide adequate improvement, other treatments for ED<\/a> are available.<\/p>\n While shockwave therapy for ED can help many men get better erections<\/strong>, it is not for everyone. A thorough evaluation is necessary to determine the causes of ED<\/a><\/strong> and to decide on treatment options<\/a><\/strong> which may include shockwave therapy for ED.<\/p>\n Shockwave therapy for ED<\/a><\/strong> is likely to work for men with high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and heart disease<\/strong>. It is less likely to be appropriate for younger healthy men<\/strong> unless they have vascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes or obesity. <\/p>\n Men with veno-occlusive insufficiency or venous leak<\/a><\/strong> do not benefit from shockwave therapy unless the problem is mild and can be compensated with improved arterial blood inflow. At New York Urology Specialists, we perform testing on all men who are interested in shockwave therapy<\/a><\/strong> for ED to make sure that their ED is not caused by a venous leak. This avoids unnecessary costs of doing shockwave therapy<\/strong> and time commitment for men for whom shockwave is very unlikely to work.<\/p>\n Shockwave therapy for ED works best for men who have mild to moderate ED<\/strong>, which usually means that oral medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), Cialis, Levitra, and Stendra work well or at least help somewhat. For these men, as many as 80%<\/strong> can stop taking oral medications, may get better erection quality with medications, or may require a lower dose of medications.<\/p>\n Our experience demonstrates that even with men with moderate-to-severe ED, shockwave therapy can be effective for many men<\/strong>. As many as 60-70% of men are able to get spontaneous erections with better erection quality, usually in combination with medications such as sildenafil, and tadalafil.<\/p>\n Treatments with shockwave therapy such as Storz, Renova, and Medispec are less likely to work if erectile dysfunction is severe and oral medications do not work at all<\/strong>. For men for whom oral medications such as Viagra do not work, the success rate of treatments such as Storz, Renova and Medispec shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction is 30-50%. We first attempt to optimize the patient’s condition prior to initiating shockwave therapy in a situation where the problem is severe and the shockwave is unlikely to work. In addition, we offer other very effective treatment options for ED such as penile injections with Trimix<\/a><\/strong> and penile implant<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n We offer ED treatment to patients within driving distance to our offices as well as from other states and countries. Our patients come from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, and over 30 countries worldwide.<\/p>\n You can find pictures of penile problems including before and after treatment images in our image gallery<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you have any questions, to schedule a consultation<\/a>, please <\/a>contact us<\/a> or call\/text: <\/strong>1-646-663-5211<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n We have excellent reviews from patients <\/a><\/strong>and their partners.
