TOPIC: Dr. Elist woes

Just wish it would stop hurting by the Circumcision area...

When my implant suddenly became infected, I had to travel from Tokyo to LA literally the next day. Dr. Elist took the implant out for free, but he performed the surgery in his examination room with his nurse as an assistant (unprofessional to say the least). . To minimize the pain, I believe he gave me opiates in some tea..oh yes...his secretary/nurse acted as his assistant during the procedure. It (of course) hurt like hell.

He gave me a battery operated Penis Pump at the end of the procedure to use... But charged me $700.00 for it. It\'s retail price (I later found out) was $150.00. What an asshole.

As I mentioned in my previous post, after the Removal of the implant, my penis retracted 2 inches (I was incredibly distraught over this), but after 3 months of stretching, pumping, and Hanging I was able to gain back 3 inches...So in the end my length increased one Inch over my Pre implant length...What\'s more, the remaining \"capsule\" (scar tissue) left me with an extra 3/4 inches over my Pre implant Girth.

Though I went through hell, I ended up an Inch longer and 3/4 of an Inch thicker with the implant removed..
I know first-hand how distraught and depressed you must feel right now, but I really believe that this will eventually be taken care of successfully, and you will
be able to get on with your life. Try to remain positive....

I will try thank you. I will follow his direction until I have no other choice but to remove it (not that having it in is making it any better). How long was your recovery after the Removal? Did you need a drainage bag again? I\'ll have to fly back into LA to have it removed but I\'m just worried about timing.

It took the wound (where the implant perforated the skin) about 6 weeks to heal...Then I started stretching, Hanging, and pumping) and the length came right back. I was one of the lucky ones.
I live in Tokyo and work over 60 hours a week and I found time to take care of this issue in California....
I did have another drainage back when he removed it....
Remember to be direct and strong with Dr. Elist. He backs down with assertiveness, but he\'ll bully you if you are over compromising.
Also, mention that you are posting your progress on the Internet...This magically makes him more agreeable and eager to help.

Welcome to the board. I\'ve noticed that, in the 3hrs that you\'ve been a member, your activities have been limited to finding Elist-related threads and posting dissenting warnings about Elist. While I, and I\'m sure most of us, would agree with your sentiments, I\'m curious about what has prompted these posts. Have you had any personal experience with Elist? Did he operate on you, or a partner?
