about SUPS

Urological Health Care Experts Specializing in Prosthetic Surgery For Men’s Health Issues

Established as an independent organization of urological health care professionals concerned with the surgical practice of prosthetic surgery in the areas of erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence, the Society of Urologic Prosthetic Surgeons strives to:

  • Educate patients, primary care physicians, and non-implanting urologists about the benefits of prosthetic solutions for both erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence.
  • Establish surgical best practices and deliver superior prosthetic outcomes to patients by endowing the study of prosthetic urology through fellowships and partnerships with residency program to develop the next generation of urological prosthetic surgeons.

The SUPS strives to educate and support the highest standards of practice, research, education, and surgical study of anatomy, physiology, pathology, diagnosis and surgical treatment of male erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence and other penile disorders. In addition, the SUPS provides a forum for the free exchange and discussion of new ideas, thoughts and concepts in this field.

"It may be hard for one to believe that over 50 years ago the first, and only, treatment available for patients with erectile dysfunction was a penile implant. Also, please imagine, some 40+ years ago there were academicians who believed that anyone performing a penile implant should have their head examined because “90% of erectile dysfunction is psychogenic”. Today, urologic surgeons have a minimum of 10 years of post-graduate training allowing us the privilege to render aid to men and women seeking treatment for some of our most intimate functions, whether it be voiding or having sex. And, YES, we are still performing penile implants today!

So what does SUPS have to do with the aforementioned history? As a surgeon who deploys any prosthetic device, one must have an on-going dedication to the art whether it be tactile or cerebral. As a patient seeking urologic treatment requiring an implantable material, one must have “the best”. No marketing, no gimmicks, no fluff. Simply THE BEST! Let SUPS help you find the best. This is what we do. "
