Parrish Healthcare offers region's first men's reproductive health program

Parrish Medical Group (PMG) in Titusville has established the region’s only medical practice focusing on men’s reproductive health.

Prostate health, male fertility, vasectomy reversal, erectile dysfunction, and incontinence are treated at PMG by Dr. Mark Licht, a board-certified and fellowship-trained urologist.

Dr. Licht says that men’s urology issues are very common, but most men avoid talking about them, and worse, hesitate or fail to seek treatment.

“I want every man to know that most male urology problems are almost always treatable,” says Dr. Licht. “The reason I focus on this area of medicine is seeing men who thought there was no hope, or no chance for improvement or recovery feel as if they have been given a new life.”

Patients are traveling from Miami, Jacksonville, and other Florida communities to seek treatment from Dr. Licht. One patient, from Boca Raton, says Dr. Licht is a life-changer.

“Dr. Licht enabled me to get my confidence back as a man,” the patient said. “I traveled to see Dr. Licht from Boca and I am so glad I did.”

Dr. Licht received his medical education and specialty training at Columbia University, Cleveland Clinic Foundation.

“These important clinical services for men, provided by a physician who is an acknowledged medical authority in these areas, comes out of our continuing assessment of community needs,” says George Mikitarian, Parrish Healthcare President and CEO. “It’s another component of Parrish Healthcare’s integrated care program that provides healing experiences for everyone all the time.”​

An estimated 30 million men in the U.S. suffer from prostate conditions that if left untreated can become major health issues. In the U.S., one in five men is diagnosed with prostate cancer. It is the second leading cause of cancer deaths for men. Approximately 50% of men experience erectile dysfunction at some point in their lives, and another 10% deal with bladder control issues. About 9% of men in the United States struggle with infertility.

Dr. Licht is recognized as an expert on men’s urology and microsurgery and is invited to speak regularly at conferences nationally and internationally. Among the professional acknowledgments, Dr. Licht has earned are Most Recommended Physicians in Florida in 2011, Best Doctors in America by Best Doctors in 2001-2016, and Top Doctors in America by U.S. News & World Report in 2016.

Dr. Licht and Parrish Medical Group are accepting new patients. Dr. Licht is located at 825 Century Medical Drive, Suite B in Titusville.
