Guy's is one the highest volume penile implant centres in London, managing patients with refractory erectile dysfunction and complex Peyronie's disease, and includes an emergency regional implant service for refractory priapism. Our team also provides a regional emergency service for all other aspects of andrological care. Patients are managed in specialist andrology clinics, which include a dedicated andrology MDT with uro-radiological support.

      We also provide a regional service for anterior urethral stricture disease, and run a dedicated specialist urethral clinic and MDT. The Adult Andrology team also supports the Paediatric Urologists at The Evelina Hospital in managing urethral strictures, and colleagues in the Young Onset Urology (YOU) Team, who provide lifelong care for patients who have been treated for paediatric urological conditions.
