Qualifications

With penile implant surgery that can restore rigidity for intercourse when oral medication and injections are not enough, Özkan Onuk’s practice is built around setting realistic expectations and matching the technique to the patient. As a specialist at the clinic in Istanbul, he works across urology and andrology, combining surgical and non-invasive pathways for conditions such as erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, male infertility, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. His patient-facing materials also describe structured follow-up elements—especially after prosthesis surgery—where rehabilitation includes prosthesis activation training. In the clinic’s approach to ED, penile prosthesis is presented as a third-line option for patients who do not respond to oral drugs and injection therapies, with suitability assessed through guideline-based criteria. When surgery is chosen, the process is explained in practical terms, including how expectations about length and glans firmness relate to the implant’s role in rigidity. For Peyronie’s disease, the clinic outlines risk profiles by technique and emphasizes pre-treatment counseling about outcomes such as residual curvature and the possibility of erectile dysfunction after grafting. Alongside sexual medicine, Onuk also treats urological conditions with endoscopic and operative options described on the clinic’s pages, including TURBT and cystectomy pathways for bladder cancer, and TUR-P and HoLEP for prostate surgery. For kidney cancer surgery, the clinic materials highlight kidney-sparing goals such as partial nephrectomy when appropriate and explain how prognosis varies by tumor stage and margin status.
