Comprehensive Sexual and Reproductive Health for Men

I was very nervous about my appointment since we were trying to understand the causes of my male infertility and figure out a way for my wife and I to get pregnant. He put me at ease right away. No matter how embarrassing the topic or the examinations, he made me feel comfortable and always made me feel like I was his number one priority. He frequently called me directly to follow up and always explained everything in an easy to understand manner. He was terrific. So good that I still see him to treat my low testosterone and drive over an hour each way for the appointments.

We have been trying to conceive for over ten years now and honestly we were close to the end of the road before we came to Maze. I have done sperm analysis’s over fifteen times in four different countries. All with the same disappointing result; azoospermia. After every test I took I would wish for at least one sperm to be found just as a sign of hope but I was always told there is nothing. I have been to the top urologist in this country and their only solution would be a surgery. My wife and I were against the surgery unless we have exhausted all other options.

I say faith brought us to you. I did the test in the morning in Manhattan and was expecting a call the next day or two as usual with the usual disappointing news of azoospermia. I remember getting a call later that evening from a New York number and did not even think it was you. I answered that call that changed our life for the better. I remember you telling me that, “I have good news for you we were able to freeze over 40 sperm.” and I could not believe my ears. I remember asking you if you’re sure you called the right person!!! It was the greatest news I had ever received in my life to say the least. I did a few more tests with positive results to ensure we have enough just as a safety net even though you told me it’s enough to conceive.

I’m glad to announce that this year we had a beautiful baby boy after a few failed IVF procedures who is the center of our lives now. I ultimately hope that you are able reach as many people as possible with your innovative techniques and dedication to your skills. Your emotional support was beyond what we expected and much appreciated. This is only a fraction of our gratitude for you and your facility for everything you have done for my family.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts…

My wife and I have been going through fertility issues due to a medical procedure conducted on me at a young age. We had been going through several years of disappointments and possible alternative means to obtain a positive pregnancy test. With the kind help of Dr. Werner and Dr. Keltz a procedure was conducted on me which allowed us to produce a positive specimen. We are currently waiting for our results but I can’t stress enough how wonderful and positive Dr. Werner has been. He is informative, patient, with a great sense of humor. He truly made this such a wonderful experience, I would recommend him to anyone. His intellect is in a class of his own and his ability to relate to his patient really made this such a wonderful experience. I would like to formally thank Dr. Werner for all he has done for us. My wife and I wish he reached out to all practices because his professionalism and know how of his area of expertise is one in a million. Thank you for taking the time to read this as it’s truly well deserved. #Wifecosignedthis

I just wanted to check in and let you know that thanks to you, my wife and I are currently 16 weeks pregnant with a healthy, growing baby boy.…I just wanted to personally thank you for your research and your efforts. We are so grateful. Thank you again!

When we first came to see Dr. Werner a couple of years ago, we were worried and anxious and frustrated — unsure if we’d be able to have the family that we had dreamed of.

Now Charlotte is a very warm & loving two-year old, and Ellie is now just learning to smile back at us at two months old.

Thank you, Dr. Werner, for your welcoming office, your encouraging words, and everything you have done to help us be the family that we knew we could be.

I was told I was azoospermic after going to several well-known fertility centers in the tri-state area. I then came to Maze Laboratories for a standard semen analysis, which also showed zero sperm count. However, after having Maze’s ESSM lab test, 42 sperm were recovered and safely stored. In collaboration with the IVF lab, my wife and I are happy to say that 7 healthy embryos were developed!

Thank you Dr. Werner for the important role you played in bringing this joyful, curious, loving little person into the world! Your support, advice and encouragement was critical to our journey — we are so grateful and we couldn’t have made it through all those tough years without you. Without a doubt, it was worth it. Our beautiful Emelia makes our family complete!

It’s hard to believe almost 15 years have passed since we first met Dr. Werner. Our beautiful miracle is now 14 years old and has started high school.

Thank you again for making our dream come true! You will never be forgotten and are always in our prayers!

In the Fall of 2009, my wife and I wanted very much to have a child together. This being my second marriage 18 years after my divorce, I was ready to encounter this. I was referred to Dr. Werner through a close friend and met him for a consultation.

The problem was that I had a vasectomy in 1999, and I knew there were few options. Dr. Werner told me of three which all seemed too extreme and I began to re-consider. After all, the thought of cutting into my testicles to withdraw sperm was frightening and I was very nervous.

However the comfort level and attention that Dr. Werner gave to my situation gave new life to what I was previously told (by a prior physician) was a near impossible resolution.

I can boldly state that Dr. Werner and his team were so amazing during this procedure and it was with minimal pain (which was only for about 8 hours) after the procedure*. In fact I am so satisfied that Dr. Werner recommended this procedure and basically erased all of the fears I had in having this procedure done.

I would highly recommend this procedure for any man considering fatherhood after a vasectomy. Dr. Werner and his staff are professional, courteous, and very sensitive to each personal situation.

The results speak highly for Dr. Werner — My wife and I are expecting twins in November 2010.

Many thanks again Dr. Werner!

I had been suffering from PE for many years and had become so frustrated and depressed about sex. Finally, I decided I needed to seek treatment. I was referred to Dr. Werner by my doctor and after my first appointment, I was prescribed a regimen of medication and cream.

The treatment plan worked! Dr. Werner and the Maze team have helped me gain back my confidence and reduce my anxiety. They’ve changed my life. I would highly recommend Maze to anyone experiencing PE.

The experience at Maze provided an excellent baseline on my current fitness, a deeper understanding of the physiological aspects of exercise, and a beneficial formation of a plan to achieve my goals.

In a professional environment, I felt very comfortable from the outset.  The physiologist patiently explained each test, its purpose, and the significance of the results.  Beyond simple ‘numbers’, I gained better insight into their meaning and impact on my health.  I look forward to returning to Maze, and would recommend them to both exercise enthusiasts as well as serious athletes.

I was interested in Maze Exercise Physiology Lab because I wanted to find out how my general health was, but more importantly I wanted to know my exact VO2 max number to train via a heart rate monitor for better race day performance.

This was my first testing program of this nature. My first reaction to Mike was a lasting impression — friendly, professional, informative and genuinely interested in the metrics he was sharing with me. The testing helped me to understand more about my training program, and I now know the heart rate zones I should be training in. I’ve taken the guess work out and put real information in!

Since my testing, I’ve become more diligent about training in various heart rate zones depending on my goal for that workout, whether a temp run, intervals or an easy run. I not only gauge the workout via perceived exertion, but I back it up with the heart rate zones determined by my testing program with Michael.

My training program feels fresh and new — I have a new focus on what numbers to hit after years of the same type of training. The most important thing I learned was my resting metabolic rate! Instead of using a generic internet calculator, I now know definitively the calorie intake I require each day and can adjust it.

In order to train efficiently we each need to know and listen to our bodies better. This is just one step further in that ideology: to know and understand the numbers Michael provided which takes the guess work and assumptions out of my training regimen.

I contacted Dr. Werner regarding Peyronie’s disease treatment and he has provided truly exceptional care. Many doctors approach men’s health problems mechanically, but Dr. Werner tries to understand the patient’s entire situation in order to provide the best possible treatment. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
