Lawrenceville & Braselton · Erectile Dysfunction
How does a penile implant work?
Good news for south Hall: our Mundy Mill Road office in Oakwood opens soon. For now, our Braselton team is glad to book your visit, while procedures take place at our Lawrenceville Clinic & Surgery Center.

What's the short answer?
An inflatable implant is made of two cylinders that sit in the penis, a pump tucked in the scrotum, and a small reservoir.
Squeezing the pump fills the cylinders for a firm erection, and a release button deflates them.
Everything is inside the body.
It's a reliable option when other treatments haven't worked.
When should you see a urologist about this?
Get checked if ED pills, injections, or a vacuum device haven't worked for you.
What happens at your Crown Pointe Way appointment?
Visits for this topic usually happen at the Lawrenceville Clinic & Surgery Center, 501 Crown Pointe Way, or at our Braselton clinic. Expect our Gwinnett team to hear the whole story first, examine you briefly, then send any urine, blood or imaging orders down the hall. You leave knowing what was found and what the plan is.
How do our Lawrenceville urologists approach this?
Erection and testosterone concerns are handled privately and without judgment. Our urologists check for causes such as diabetes, heart risk and hormone levels, then talk through tablets, shockwave sessions, vacuum devices, injections, implants or testosterone therapy.
How should you get ready for Crown Pointe Way?
Note when it began, what eases or worsens it, and each medicine or supplement on your list. Carry your insurance card and photo ID, plus results from outside labs or scans. If someone helps you remember details, they are welcome in the room at Crown Pointe Way.
When should you phone us?
Call (678) 344-8900 if symptoms are changing, if a new result worries you, or if a treatment is not doing what you hoped. Crown Pointe Way schedulers will book you with a urologist or physician assistant who sees this concern often.
What should you read next?
What else do patients ask?
My stream slowed down years ago. Is it too late to treat?
No. Crown Pointe Way sees men who waited a decade before asking. We measure how well the bladder empties today and build a plan from medicines through UroLift, Aquablation, HoLEP or TURP around what we find.
