The Turek Clinic - San Francisco, United States

Dr. Turek posted a video on YouTube claiming to be an expert in testicular implants. In the video, he showcased a silicone testicular implant (which he said he helped develop). I was dissatisfied with my previous implant, so I found a local doctor and switched to the model he demonstrated in the video. It felt terrible after the switch. As he mentioned, they were not good, so I changed again. It felt like having a hard object the size of a golf ball stuffed in my scrotum. During sexual encounters (with two different people on separate occasions), the person massaging my sensitive skin immediately noticed my testicle was fake. This ruined the mood, and I gave up on finding a partner for a while. The blow of losing my testicles was already painful enough, and this experience only made it worse. I wish I had never watched that video, because the implants he showcased felt completely off. I really wanted to like them. Dr. Turek deleted my YouTube comment. I also sent a message to his office wanting to talk to Dr. Turek, but they never replied. I wanted to discuss the product I was very satisfied with. Eventually, I found a product called Eurosilicone, manufactured by GC Aesthetics in France (in another country). I love them very much. They are miniaturized, oval-shaped gel-filled breast implants, a type that received FDA approval in the US for women as early as 2012. This product feels so natural that I almost can't tell I have prosthetic testicles. It comes in four different sizes. I regained my confidence in intimate settings, and no one has ever guessed that my scrotum contains fake testicles. The sample might feel a bit soft, but something very magical happens after implantation. The body/scrotum forms a tissue capsule around it, giving it the same firmness as a real testicle while still feeling as soft as a real one to the touch. No one would guess they are fake (and it can even fool many doctors). Even the small tab used to secure the prosthesis grows some tissue around it, feeling just like the epididymis. This product is sold in about 71 countries, has been on the market for over 10 years, and comes with a lifetime replacement warranty. I've seen videos of plastic surgeons driving over gel-filled breast implants without them rupturing. This product is very durable. However, it is not available in the US because, given marketing and financial realities, this French company simply cannot compete with giants like Johnson & Johnson and Allergan in the US market. Big companies make a fortune from women, so they see no need to launch a male-specific product. Urologists like Dr. Turek haven't requested it either. It might be 20 years before this male-specific product is available in the US. Dr. Turek deleted my comment because he doesn't want you to know that such a product exists. He has been involved in developing testicular implants; perhaps he is not as knowledgeable as he claims. The implant technology he provides is outdated, and he should collaborate with major US medical device companies to pursue the use of gel-filled products. To be fair, regarding male testicular implants, the entire country is at least a decade behind the rest of the world. Dr. Turek is unwilling to admit this. Maybe he doesn't realize it himself. But deleting comments about products available in other countries doesn't solve anything.

Dr. Turek exceeded my expectations. He listened carefully to every concern, and the entire process went smoothly. I recently received my test results, and everything is normal. The only discomfort was during the first few weeks after the procedure, which is normal. I would recommend Dr. Turek to everyone!

Honestly, he seemed to know what he was doing until he gave me devastating news: while chewing nuts, he casually told me I would never be able to have children. Full stop.

I am the wife of one of Dr. Turek's patients. We had previously undergone surgery for male infertility. It was initially successful, but unfortunately the results were not ideal. We later found Dr. Turek through Google, and his informative blog posts directly addressed the issue we were facing. With his guidance, we regained hope and tried again—and it worked! We conceived during the first menstrual cycle after the doctor cleared us to try again, and welcomed a healthy baby later that year. This success changed our lives, and I highly recommend Dr. Turek. If you are facing male infertility and want a doctor who inspires confidence, I strongly recommend scheduling a consultation. Absolutely worth the cost!

Dr. Turek is the finest physician in urology. He is at the forefront of research, highly skilled, and excellent at explaining procedures and their scientific basis. People call him the ‘sperm whisperer’ because he can achieve what other urologists cannot. My case was unusual: I had a vasectomy 20 years ago and am now 40. Dr. Turek was confident he could perform a reversal, which we considered, but I ultimately chose a MESA procedure to retrieve sperm directly from my testicle. He successfully retrieved 5 vials, and preoperative medication helped him obtain high-quality sperm. If you want the best, see Dr. Turek.

Dr. Turek performed two surgeries on me. Both were excellent. The experience before and after each surgery was smooth. I highly recommend him, especially after hearing horror stories from friends who tried to save money by choosing less experienced surgeons.

Dr. Turek and his team truly changed our family's life! After struggling with secondary infertility for more than two years and visiting several well-known fertility clinics, we were finally referred to Dr. Turek. After a telehealth consultation, we scheduled an in-person appointment. The physical examination quickly identified a significant issue that may have been the root cause of our fertility problems. Surgery proceeded as scheduled, and within 6 months afterward, following years of failed treatment, we were finally able to conceive. Dr. Turek and his team were outstanding and took excellent care of my family. My only regret is not advocating for a referral several years earlier. As I write this, I am holding my baby boy in my arms—something I never thought possible! Thank you so much, Dr. Turek and team!

I am very grateful for the opportunity to be treated by such an expert. Dr. Paul's deep understanding of my case and his prompt, effective treatment plan truly changed my life. Thanks to him, I can now live a full life, and other areas of my life have also improved significantly. I cannot imagine where I would be without his support. Dr. Paul, thank you from the bottom of my heart. The entire team at the Turek Clinic is also wonderful—they follow up on every detail and make you feel genuinely welcome.

I was nervous throughout, but I knew everything would be fine because they do everything possible to provide professional and comfortable care. It has been almost a week, and there has been hardly any pain afterward. They know what they are doing here.

We are extremely satisfied with the exceptional care we have received at the Turek Clinic. Dr. Turek is, without a doubt, the best urologists in the country. After experiencing multiple misdiagnoses and a devastating failed IVF cycle, we were grateful to find a physician who truly takes the time to understand the root cause of our issues. Dr. Turek is dedicated to uncovering the underlying reasons for medical concerns, rather than simply resorting to surgery or medication. If you are seeking an accurate diagnosis, I highly recommend Dr. Turek. His clinical team and office staff are exceptional as well!
