Symptoms & Diagnosis
Introduction: What Is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) — sometimes called impotence — is the persistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. While it’s common for most men to experience occasional difficulty, ongoing problems with erections can signal an underlying medical or psychological issue. ED is not simply a natural part of aging; it’s often a symptom of something deeper, such as vascular disease, hormonal imbalance, or stress-related factors. The good news is that Erectile Dysfunction is highly treatable, and with the right evaluation and care, nearly every man can regain healthy sexual function and confidence.
Common Symptoms of Erectile Dysfunction
- Difficulty achieving an erection during sexual activity
- Trouble maintaining an erection long enough for intercourse
- Erections that are less firm than usual
- Reduced sexual desire or libido
- Inconsistent or absent morning (nocturnal) erections
- Anxiety or stress related to sexual performance
- Decreased confidence or avoidance of sexual intimacy
- Difficulty ejaculating or changes in ejaculation patterns
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to speak with a specialist. At Maze Men’s Health, we identify the underlying causes and develop a personalized, effective treatment plan to restore both function and confidence.
Oral Treatments Options for ED
Viagra works quickly and powerfully, Cialis offers up to 36 hours of effectiveness, Levitra provides consistent results with minimal side effects, and Stendra acts within 15 minutes for maximum spontaneity. Guided by Michael A. Werner, MD, our specialists customize the right medication, dosage, and timing for each patient. With affordable generic options and advanced alternatives like shockwave therapy, PRP, and penile injections, Maze helps men across Westchester, NYC, Connecticut, and New Jersey restore confidence, vitality, and lasting sexual health.
Penile Injection Therapy for ED
For men who can’t take or don’t respond to oral Erectile Dysfunction (ED) medications, penile injection therapy offers a fast, reliable alternative. At Maze Men’s Health, this treatment uses a tiny, nearly painless injection of medication—such as prostaglandin E1, Bimix, or Trimix—to increase blood flow and produce a natural erection within minutes. Guided by Michael A. Werner, MD, patients are carefully trained to use the injections safely and confidently. With expert dosing and support, more than 90% of men achieve strong, lasting erections, even after failing other ED treatments. Penile injections are safe, effective, and proven to restore performance and confidence for men across Westchester, NYC, Connecticut, and New Jersey.
Shockwave Therapy/Pressurewave Therapy
LI-ESWT (Low Intensity- Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy) is a relatively new, painless method for treatment of ED. It has been proven, in the past 10 years, to be extremely effective, in improving ED in most men.
The extraordinary feature of LI-ESWT is that it is the first potential non-surgical curative treatment for ED. Current treatment of ED, using pills or injections, is extremely successful, but they have always relied on ongoing management of the condition. That is, anyone using pills or other treatments must plan to use them before each sexual activity. LI-ESWT treatment potentially improves a man’s sexual functioning whenever he is sexually active. This may allow him to get and maintain a good erection without requiring an immediate intervention, or improve his function so that he can use a less powerful method to be successful (i.e., function with using pills as opposed to injections.)
Penile Botox Injection for ED
When a man is getting an erection, the smooth muscle in his penis relaxes, dilating up the arteries and letting more blood flow in more quickly, while simultaneously activating the trapping mechanism, which keeps the blood from escaping. More blood in and less blood out is what gives a man an erection.
Botox causes the smooth muscle in the penis, which is chronically contracted, to relax by paralyzing it. When a man is excited, he sends signals to cause additional smooth muscle relaxation. The combination of the chronic smooth muscle relaxation from the Botox and the immediate smooth relaxation from the man’s sexual excitement give him a good erection.
Regenerative Cell Therapy
Regain spontaneity with Regenerative Cell Therapy
Our proprietary treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED) uses your body’s own healing and regenerative cells to increase blood flow to your penis and improve sexual function. The primary benefit of this treatment is that it may help you get and maintain a good erection without advanced planning, or with a less invasive method (e.g., only pills, without injections).
Excellent new research shows that this healing and regenerative cell treatment improves erectile dysfunction in men with mild to moderate ED. We’ve waited to offer this ED treatment to our patients until we felt the evidence for a specific protocol, with specific equipment, was found to be convincingly effective from a science-based perspective.

Patient Stories
Shockwave Therapy for ED
I found myself taking more and more Cialis about three years ago and decided to try Shockwave Therapy. About a month after the first treatment, I was taking much less Cialis and my erections were way better. I no longer had any side effects from the medicine because of the lower dose. I still go back every year or so for a boost and I am extremely happy to have this option.

Erectile Dysfunction after prostate issues.
I came to Dr. Werner after having a prostate issue that caused Erectile Dysfunction. I had it for at least four years, and was given Viagra, which just wasn’t doing it for me. I wanted my mojo back! I found Dr. Werner on the internet, and came in to see him. That was the best decision I ever made.
My first appointment was surprising; it was really great. It was such a pleasant experience, and seeing Dr. Werner continued to be pleasant. It’s better than any other practice.* Now, sex is very enjoyable again – my anxiety is gone, and my youth and vigor are back. Dr. Werner resolved my issues quickly, and I didn’t have to keep trying to explain what was going on with me, because he had already figured it out.
It’s ok to take care of yourself. You become a better human when you take care of your own issues.

Erectile Dysfunction isn't "all in your head."
Around 20 years ago, I experienced an abrupt drop off in my sexual ability. I had a brief illness on antibiotics and thought that was the cause. After my recovery things got a little better but not enough. I thought that maybe I’d injured myself in the gym, perhaps on the stationary bike.
Through the following years I went to three or four urologists but unfortunately these were the “Dark Ages.” By that I mean if your hormone levels were ok and you had a pulse in your leg it was “all in your head.” They were more interested in how you peed and putting probes up you. Just too clinical: no help. I tried the pills with little success but I wasn’t happy at all.
Last year I did an internet search and came across Dr. Werner’s name. After a little hemming and hawing, I decided to call for prices for the testing as my insurance did not cover. I was particularly interested in the ultrasound testing, so I made the appointment.
Dr. Werner was totally upbeat guy, and easy to talk to. He explained what we were going to do. What impressed me was he said, in effect, “We’re going to fix this.”*
We started the test program, which consisted of thorough blood work, nocturnal monitoring and ultrasound blood flow monitoring. The nocturnal test was a bit uncomfortable but it showed I had less than normal intensity in my erections during sleep. Now came the ultrasound. This was a bit scary, consisting of an injection in the side of the penis. I thought it was really going to hurt! Dr. Werner said it would feel like a rubber band snap.
That was it, absolutely no pain at all!!!* The test showed a decrease in blood flow and I thought: now we’re getting somewhere, it’s not all in my head!
Dr. Werner recommended a treatment using a painless injection technique where the needle is hidden (which was good since I’m afraid of needles) and where you can actually go through a few dry runs.* Finally I pressed the button on my own – no pain at all!!!* The side effects are minor (you may experience an erection of more than an hour, but it does subside)*.
Within a period of about three weeks, things were getting back to normal and my confidence was up*.
You do have to follow a specific protocol which takes a little of the spontaneity away.
The most important lesson is that you do not have to suffer with this if you deal with a specialist in the field, NOT strictly a Urologist, but someone who’s trained and practiced for years in this area. Dr. Werner was that specialist for me.

I felt like I was 20 years old again.
When I first came to Dr. Werner, I was having trouble with erections and used Viagra which worked poorly. I would get an erection, but the erection would not last very long. I then used Levitra, but the same thing happened and some psychological stuff was going on too, where I would think about it, whether I was going to get an erection or think about how long I was going to stay erect, and that had an effect on how long I could keep an erection. The more concentration it took, the less I was able to perform without just enjoying it.
I was hesitant to go to a doctor and deal with this, but I eventually went through with it and called Dr. Werner. He was not surprised — like he hears this all the time — and he explained how injections worked, and he helped me understand how to use it on my own. As soon as I started using the injector, all problems went away*. The erection lasts for an hour or two and I have not had this much function since I was 20 years old. The treatment has been successful for me, and Dr. Werner’s manner made it easier to seek help than I thought it would be.
