The Quest to Get More Balls

I’VE BEEN MEANING TO SEE a urologist since my ill-starred attempt to jump-start my sex life. Now fate—and Esquire magazine—has led me to Harry Fisch, M.D.

I meet Fisch at an Esquire symposium where he’s giving a lecture on men’s health. A prominent urologist—a regular on the Dr. Oz show and author of The Male Biological Clock—he’s six feet tall and has good posture, sharp suits, and a big laugh. He exudes his favorite hormone, testosterone.

After his lecture, I approach Fisch and tell him I’d be interested in coming to see him. Fisch says absolutely.

“When I do a prostate exam, it’s easy. I use one finger. Maybe two if I need a second opinion.”

He unleashes his big laugh. “I love that joke. Heard it from a cabdriver.”
