Erectile dysfunction is one of the most common reasons men see a urologist — and one of the most treatable. For men across Beverly Hills, the obstacle is rarely a lack of options; it’s finding a specialist who treats ED discreetly, thoroughly, and with the full range of modern solutions. At his Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Justin Houman does exactly that, beginning with the underlying cause rather than a quick prescription.
Dr. Houman is a board-certified urologist and Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, fellowship-trained in male reproductive and sexual medicine at UCLA and an Assistant Professor of Urology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His Beverly Hills practice holds a Center of Excellence designation for inflatable penile implant surgery, and as a member of the Sexual Medicine Society of North America, he offers patients the complete spectrum of ED care — from first-line medication to advanced surgical solutions.
Dr Justin Houman is a wonderful guy. Go to him and feel confident in his care. He is easy to talk to about topics that are not easy. Hes funny, knowledgeable, reassuring, open to questions, nonjudgmental. Really feels like hes on your side. He also listened to me about a symptom another doc downplayed, and ended up solving the problem. I cant recommend this kind man highly enough!
What Is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction is the persistent difficulty getting or keeping an erection firm enough for satisfying sex. An occasional off night is normal, but a consistent pattern is a legitimate medical condition worth addressing. Because erections rely on the coordinated function of blood vessels, nerves, hormones, and mood, ED can stem from a single factor or several at once — which is why pinpointing the cause comes before any prescription.
Treatment Options in Beverly Hills
The right treatment depends entirely on what’s driving the problem, and Dr. Houman offers the full range:
- Lifestyle and Medical Management: Improving cardiovascular and metabolic health, and adjusting contributing medications, often forms the foundation.
- Oral Medications: FDA-approved PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil and tadalafil remain the most common first-line option.
- Testosterone Optimization: When low testosterone contributes, restoring healthy levels can improve desire and function.
- Penis Pump Therapy: A vacuum erection device offers a non-invasive, drug-free alternative.
- Penile Implant Surgery: For severe or treatment-resistant ED, an inflatable penile implant provides a discreet, reliable long-term solution.
- Emerging Therapies: Shockwave therapy, Botox for ED, and exosome therapy are newer, regenerative-style approaches some men explore.
It’s worth knowing that these newer options — low-intensity shockwave therapy, Botox, and exosome or platelet-rich plasma treatments — are currently considered investigational or experimental for erectile dysfunction and are not FDA-approved for this purpose. Dr. Houman reviews the current evidence candidly so you can decide whether an emerging therapy makes sense for you.

Meet Dr. Houman
Expert in Men’s Health with Tower Urology and Cedars Sinai
Dr. Justin Houman, MD, FACS is a board-certified urologist and fellowship-trained microsurgeon at Tower Urology, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. His subspecialty training in male reproductive medicine and microsurgery is held by fewer than 2% of practicing urologists in the United States.
His clinical focus is narrow by design. Varicoceles, chronic testicular pain, male infertility, vasectomy, testosterone optimization, erectile dysfunction, penile implant surgery, and Peyronie’s disease are not add-on services here. They are the practice. Patients travel from across the country and internationally for procedures, particularly microsurgical varicocelectomy, spermatic cord denervation, and inflatable penile implant surgery, that require a level of subspecialty training and surgical volume most urology practices do not have.
