Dr John Faulkner is a highly skilled urology surgeon @Eisenhower Specialty Clinic. He is respectful about your questions listens to what you say and gives recommendations about your health care. I have OAB and do not want to take meds that abuse my health. Dr Faulkner suggested PTNS therapy which is done weekly in his office for 30 minutes. The easy treatment has put me in control of my bladder. I am free of any symptoms I had before I started. Freedom at last with PTNS. It’s a l life changer for me! Dr Faulkner deserves 10 stars he’s the best. His staff are all professional and accommodating with your care.

I had my first visit with Dr. Faulkner. He was easy to talk to, answered questions and explained options clearly. He took his time with me. It almost seemed like I was having a conversation with a friend. I am grateful that I found him.

Today he completed the second stage surgery to implant a Medtronic Estim unit, which stimulates the bladder muscle and stops night leakage as well as sprints to public toilets in stores - which are always a football length away. In a few weeks I will know more about the success of this FDA approved unit. He also happens to be the NICEST Dr. I have ever met!

I WANNA KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN. This guy treats people younger than him like garbage and then when I asked if he would treat me this way if I was 40 he said "Well..." yea nice I can't believe I just swallowed this guy's garbage because he's the only one with medication. Next time I'm crossing the border and not dealing with this nonsense. Thinks I'm scared just because I'm nice, wow, it wasn't too long ago I mutilated this tall guy's face and that's when I still had low t.
