Annual Preventive Care Visit: What to Expect

We know that visiting a new practice for the first time can cause significant anxiety and stress. The following is what you can expect from your visit.

First Visit Components

Sexual History

Prior to your first visit, we will set up a comprehensive intake with Matthew Phillips, our gay sex therapist. He will take a thorough sexual history in preparation for your first in-person visit. He will also be available for further evaluation and/or therapy as needed.

Comprehensive History and Physical Examination

In preparation for your first visit, you will fill out a series of questionnaires. It may feel onerous, but trust us, we will use all of this information to comprehensively address any issues you are having.

Upon arriving at your first appointment, you will meet with our nurse practitioner. He will review your full medical and sexual history with you. He will also screen for and discuss symptoms of low testosterone, anxiety, and depression, and screen for erection, ejaculation, sleep, and urination issues.

After reviewing your sexual and medical history, you will then receive a full medical exam, including an anal PAP smear.

Lab Testing

For gay and bisexual men, standard and additional testing is indicated. One of the aspects of our care that men appreciate most is that all of your samples will be collected on site, and then testing will either be performed at Maze or sent out to the appropriate lab that participates with your plan.

You will have a full set of blood work drawn, including hormones, complete blood count, electrolytes, and lipids.

We will also do indicated STD testing, which may include blood work, urine testing, and both throat and rectal swabs. Additionally, we will perform an anal pap on all men who have a history of anal sex. Find out more on why an anal pap is so important.

Based on your history we will consider starting, renewing, or changing your PrEP and or beginning your HPV vaccine series.

Second Appointment

You will be scheduled for a second appointment, approximately two weeks after your first appointment. At this appointment, we will review the results of all of your testing. Then together with Dr. Werner, we will review everything we’ve learned, and develop a comprehensive treatment and follow-up plan.

Matthew Phillips, LCSW, MED

As a licensed clinical social worker, sex therapist, and gay man myself, I am well-positioned to support the mental health needs of my community. I have over fifteen years of clinical experience, which enables me to provide assessments and therapy that emphasize sexual identity and functioning as critical components of a balanced life. I practice from a social justice perspective and actively work to affirm people of diverse experiences and relationship models.

Anthony Angeloni, PA-C

Throughout my clinical training in both primary care and specialized settings, I noticed a distinct separation between the patients’ physical complaints, mental well-being, and their own personal lives. As a provider at Maze Health, I assess all of these factors to ensure each patient receives a plan of care most appropriate to their needs. With an emphasis on care regarding sexual identity, I address the concerns and distinct needs of gay and bisexual men that are often overlooked in medicine. 

I am currently an NCCPA board-certified physician assistant at Maze Men’s Health. I graduated from DeSales University as part of an accelerated program where I received both a Bachelor of Science in Medical Studies and Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies over the course of five years.

Michael A. Werner, MD, FACS, Medical Director/Founder

I am the proud member of an astoundingly queer family. Our son, Adam Eli, is a gay activist, writer and community organizer. My wife and I (though mostly my wife) cofounded Mosaic of Westchester, which has focused on integrating Westchester’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning Jews into the fabric of Jewish life, thus enriching the entire Westchester Jewish community.

Since the founding of Maze in 1994, I have been committed to being inclusive and welcoming to the LGBTQ community. With this gay/bisexual unit, I am hoping to offer even more services that are specifically needed by our patients, utilizing primarily LGBTQ providers.

Patient Stories

Our deepest thanks for your support in our fertility journey

We want to express our deepest thanks for your support in our fertility journey.

We are still very much in the throes of our family building story, but as we reflect back on the last year, the moment we stepped into your office is one of our biggest turning points. We were terrified, and your guidance, reassurance, and compassion during a time of extreme uncertainty for us meant more than words can express. That moment when you let us know that having biological children would be a possibility for us will hold a special place in our hearts for the rest of our lives.

Your ability to create an atmosphere of comfort and understanding sets a benchmark in patient care that is truly unparalleled.

I deeply appreciate the efforts you and your staff have made...

Maze has created an experience of gaining insight and comfort with and acceptance of, my post surgical sexual self.

Based on my experience with Maze, I would highly recommend you, your clinicians and staff, to others — your approach and quality of concern and support (and determination!) have been hugely valuable.

I have been a patient for almost 10 years...

If you want to go to an office where everyone there is encouraging, helpful, and sincere then Dr. Werner and staff is the place for you. I have been a patient for almost 10 years and never did I think it was about money for his operation.
They have always gave me clear information and guided me through any procedure or process I was working through. I would recommend this office to anyone that needs help!

I could not recommend Dr. Werner and his great team more highly!

I have been seeing Dr. Werner and his fine staff for a few years now and simply put-its the best medical care I’ve ever experienced. Due in large part to the guidance and healthcare I’ve experienced here I feel like the best version of myself at age 41. I could not recommend this Dr. Werner and his great team more highly! Thank you all for what you do!!

A, NY, Age 44

To state that Dr. Werner saved my life, would be an understatement!

I have been under his care for almost a decade during which he guided me through successful Peyronies treatment, a penile fracture, erectile dysfunction, and in the end, a life beyond my wildest dreams. Dr. Werner, Nick, Paul, Rima, and his entire staff, have spent so much time investing in my physical health, in an effort to not only solve medical problems, but to maximize my overall quality of life.

Dr. Werner is beyond a great practitioner. He’s a great man. His balance of exemplary knowledge, comprehensive treatment, humor, and individualized patient care, has far exceeded any expectation that I have ever had for a doctor. This is to say that Dr. Werner has always treated me as a human being, first. Therefore, his understanding of the person whom he treats, in addition to only the most sound scientific research, makes his work life-altering.

Over the past 10 years, I have continually peppered his staff with questions and concerns, as I have always felt the need to stay educated. Backed by tremendous patience and humility, Dr. Werner has never made me feel like a number. I feel grateful that I found his office, years ago. To that end, I no longer consider him, Nick, or Paul, mere practitioners, but dear friends. I owe much, if not all of my progress over the last few years, to MAZE MENS HEALTH.

Alix B, NJ, Age 51

Dr. Werner and team are knowledgeable, confident and really care about you as an individual!

My first impressions of Dr. Werner: smart, caring, confident, warm. He really listened to me and demonstrated a high level of confidence that he could help me. He understood the impact my symptoms were having on my life and didn’t minimize them. Paul (therapist) and Kristy (exercise physiologist) were also professional and inspired both calm and confidence.

I was initially referred to Dr. Werner for ED and began using a combination of medication and penile injections. Once Dr. Werner found the right dose for me, I was able to get the best erection I had had in over six months. I later developed Peyronie’s Disease as well. I was fortunate that Dr. Werner had significant experience treating Peyronie’s Disease, as he was able to assess me and recommend Xiaflex injections. While treating my Peyronie’s, Dr. Werner also suggested I begin Shockwave Therapy to further help my ED. Since completing both treatments, not only has my Peyronie’s seen dramatic improvement, but my ability to get an erection has improved 95%!

I feel very positive about my experience with Dr. Werner and Maze. These are good people and they are good at what they do. They understand the problem, treat you with respect and take your concerns seriously. I can’t imagine there’s any sexual health issue Dr. Werner would not be able to help you with! If you do consider coming to Maze, it’s important to stick with it and remember that these are medical issues and results do not happen overnight. I was incredibly nervous when I came in for my first appointment, but Dr. Werner has created an environment and a team at Maze that will immediately put you at ease.

Additionally, you and your partner must be on the same page since treatment is a process and requires both patience and good communication. I’m happy to say my wife and I have seen tremendous benefits, becoming even more communicative and closer as a couple throughout this process. Two years ago, I never would have believed coming in for treatment would have changed our relationship so positively.

Bottom line is that Dr. Werner and all the staff were wonderful!

Very impressive and professional medical practice. Top staff, rigorous process, timely service and excellent follow-up. There is also a positive and vibrant demeanor projected by everyone in the office that I have not seen in other places. There is extensive testing that can get pricey for out of network patients, but cannot argue with the treatment process, quality and results. Bottom line is that Dr. Werner and all the staff are wonderful!

AP, NY,  Age 63

The word I would use for Dr. Werner is “thorough."

In 2009, I came to see Dr. Werner for erectile dysfunction, but I was having symptoms for ten years before I got here! I had seen many other urologists, but they just couldn’t figure it out. When I found Dr. Werner, all that changed.

I was very impressed with the caring and knowledge he possesses. He really went out of his way to find out everything that was a piece of my issues. The word I would use for Dr. Werner is “thorough.”

He discovered that I had low testosterone as well as erectile dysfunction. Once I started treatment he had me come in every 4-6 months to check my numbers and regulate me. Together, we found the right treatment cocktail, and my issues were resolved within 4-6 weeks!*

If you ever feel, at any point in your life, that there is a problem, seek help immediately!

Dr. Werner helped us start a family. We will always be extremely thankful.

How are you, Bat Sheva, and Dr. Werner? We hope all of you are doing well and I’m sure helping people move towards sexual wholeness.

We’re doing really well. Our little miracle from God, Anna Joy, is almost 5 months old now!! She is rolling over, babbles a lot, and has the cutest toothless smile. Stan and I absolutely adore her and marvel every day that God gave us this amazing little girl to take care of. We’re so blessed.

We will never forget how Dr. Bat Sheva, and Dr. Werner played such a vital role in our journey towards parenthood. We will always be extremely thankful to God for you.

Please send our love to them.

Most compassionate, friendly doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr. Werner’s for over 21 years and he is the most compassionate, friendly doctor I have ever met.
I look for his advice even outside of his specialty. The same can be said for Nick and all of the staff at Maze.

A, NY, Age 59

I followed instructions to rest the first two days and had NO pain.

After many conversations with my girlfriend, I decided to take responsibility for our birth control. As a 46 year old divorced medical professional with 4 children and in a long term committed relationship, this was the right decision. I was scared to death to have a vasectomy and in fact I am even afraid of needles for blood work. I made my appointment because I knew that if I didn’t set it up I wouldn’t go through with it.

I was given an appointment within a few days. The office staff was amazing and the surgical coordinator was so helpful with all of my questions. My consult with Dr. Werner could not have been any better. He is so personable and nice, and put my mind at ease promising that he would adjust the medications for me because he could tell how anxious I was.

I then came back a few days later for my pre screening. As I mentioned I am petrified of blood draws. The phlebotomist and medical tech, Ben, drew my blood and I didn’t even feel it. On the day of the procedure I took the medications as prescribed and barely felt or remember a thing. I followed the instructions to rest the first two days and had NO pain! I can honestly say that I would recommend Dr. Werner and his staff to anyone who is ready to have a vasectomy and take on the responsibility of birth control in their relationship.

MO, Age 46

Dr. Werner and his staff are absolutely the best.

Dr. Werner and his staff are absolutely the best. I have been a patient for 2 years and I actually enjoy my appointments because everyone is so nice and knowledgeable. I had a vasectomy and it was an easy procedure at this office with no pain and a very quick recovery. I have no problem recommending to other men that they get this procedure if they have finished having children.

Maze offers other good quality services, such as counseling, fitness testing, testosterone treatment, and sperm banking.

If you’re hesitant about vasectomy procedures or seeking treatment for male issues, I can say that this office makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Not once did I ever feel awkward. Professional and caring, the way a doctor’s office should be.

BR, NY, Age 52

I am in disbelief that I was symptom free all weekend.

I’m just writing in to thank you for such a seamless, painless, and gratifying vasectomy experience last Friday. I am in disbelief that I was symptom free all weekend and cannot visually see any evidence of the procedure!  How is this possible???

R, NYC, Age 48

I felt no pain during or after the procedure!

I went to Maze Men’s Health because I was interested in the needle-less and scalpel-less technique used by Dr. Werner. The staff was great. Very friendly and professional. You felt comfortable and welcome from the moment you stepped inside the office door. Dr. Werner is great. Photos and diagrams were used to thoroughly explain the procedure. And he is an engaging man so you feel he is going to do the best job possible. He treated me as if I were a family friend. The prep for the procedure was quick and the actual operation lasted no more than 20 minutes. During that time Dr. Werner was cracking jokes, we were having a great conversation and the next thing I knew he was finished. I felt no pain during or after the procedure. This is written on day 2 and I have no pain or swelling in the area. I HIGHLY recommend Maze for anyone thinking about a vasectomy or any other services that they provide. Thanks Dr. Werner!!!

A, CT, Age 52

The entire experience was stress-free....and painless.

Before I moved to Westchester, I had decided to undergo a traditional vasectomy but chickened-out at the last minute. Once I moved, I was traveling on the Metro North train and noticed an ad for the no-needle, no-scalpel vasectomy at Maze Men’s Health. I immediately called to find out more information.

From the moment I met Dr. Werner, he made me feel completely at ease in what could potentially have been a very high anxiety situation. Although I was worried about the pain, there was absolutely no pain at all!

I couldn’t believe how easy the process was. From the first call through follow-up after the procedure, the entire experience was stress-free. I would definitely recommend Dr. Werner to anyone considering a vasectomy.

V, NY, Age 43

Dr. Werner and the entire Maze staff was FANTASTIC.

My experience with Dr. Werner and the entire Maze staff was fantastic. From the front desk, to billing, to the clinical staff and right up to Dr. Werner himself, my experience has been excellent. From consultation, pre-op, procedure and post visits everyone has been tremendously professional and great to work with.  Today I’m 1000% healed up and extremely happy I came to see Dr. Werner in the first place.
