- Step 5 — Remote follow-up. Virtual visits at 6 weeks and 3 months — no return travel needed.
Why men travel to Dr. Gheiler
Volume and focus. More than 400 inflatable penile implant procedures a year, performed through his Concealed-Scar Scrotal Technique™, with a strict infection-prevention protocol on every case.
Revision expertise. Complex and re-do surgery is a sub-specialty — Dr. Gheiler repairs implants placed elsewhere, so patients who travel to him are cared for by the surgeon other urologists refer their hardest cases to.
Follow-up that travels with you. Recovery is managed to a clear plan (see the week-by-week timeline) with scheduled virtual check-ins after you are home.
Bilingual care. The whole team works in English and Spanish (Hebrew available) — nothing is lost in translation at any step.
Frequently asked questions
How do I start if I don't live in Miami?
With a confidential virtual consultation. Dr. Gheiler reviews your history and any prior surgical records, examines your case by video, and gives you a clear surgical plan and cost/coverage picture before you book any travel.
How long do I need to stay in Miami?
Plan on 5 to 7 days around surgery. Surgery is outpatient; partner hotels sit within 10 minutes of the office, and you have your post-operative visit before you fly home.
What about follow-up after I fly home?
Follow-up continues remotely: virtual visits at the 6-week and 3-month marks, so you do not need to fly back. Dr. Gheiler's team stays reachable for questions throughout your recovery.
Why travel to a high-volume US surgeon?
Experience and continuity: Dr. Gheiler performs more than 400 penile implant procedures a year with a strict infection-prevention protocol, personally manages your follow-up, and — because revision and complex re-do surgery are a sub-specialty — he also repairs implants placed elsewhere.
Can everything be done in Spanish?
Yes. The entire process — virtual consultation, paperwork, surgery, and follow-up — is available in Spanish (and Hebrew). Visit our Spanish-language site at www.urofeliz.com.
