Book a visit
Request a visit at Advanced Urology to go over your options.
Call 678-344-8900Book onlineWhat should I ask?
- Do I have diabetes, high blood pressure or blood vessel disease?
- Which medicines do I take, and do I smoke?
Your visit
Expect questions about heart health, blood sugar, medicines, smoking and stress, plus a short exam. Blood tests for testosterone, sugar and cholesterol help our urologists see which causes apply to you.
When to call
Call us if erections have changed, even if you feel well otherwise, or if ED treatments you tried before didn’t work. A visit is also a chance to look at heart and blood vessel health, which is closely tied to erections.
Our approach
Our urologists treat the causes they find, which can mean medicine, shockwave therapy, injections, a vacuum device or an implant. If low testosterone is part of the picture, that can be treated too. Quitting smoking, regular exercise and less alcohol help erections as well.
