Dr. Steven Wilson

Steven K. Wilson, MD, FACS, FRCS, was formerly Professor of Urology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock, Arkansas. The Steven K. Wilson Chair of Prosthetic Urology was endowed at this University in 2007. Through 46 years of practice and over 11,000 implants, he has performed urologic surgery in 53 countries and has been a visiting professor at several American training programs and numerous foreign centers. He is the author or co-author of over 200 peer-reviewed publications, editorials, invited commentaries and abstracts, as well as 19 textbook chapters, countless surgical videos, and 5 prosthetic urology textbooks. He was the 2010 recipient of the St Paul’s Medal of the British Association of Urologic Surgeons, which is given yearly to a single urologist outside of the United Kingdom that has contributed significantly to world urology. In 2013, the F. Brantley Scott Award of Excellence was designated to Wilson. In 2017, he received the inaugural “Living Legend Award” of the Society of Urologic Prosthetic Surgeons. He has also been awarded lifetime achievement awards by the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society, the AR Urologic Society, the Southeastern Section of the AUA, and the North Rhein-Westfalia Section of the German Urologic Society. He founded and remains Editor-in-Chief of the successful International Society of Sexual Medicine’s Video Journal of Prosthetic Urology. Wilson is most recognized for his innovation of new surgical techniques, which have made the complex implantation of penile implants and sphincters minimally invasive. His notable literature contributions include strategies for infection and biofilm in penile prosthetics, the modeling procedure for Peyronie’s Disease, the single scrotal incision implantation of urinary sphincters, and the implantation of both IPP and AUS through a single scrotal incision and the ectopic placement of implant reservoirs. His current practice in La Quinta, California, is limited to prosthetic urology, and he continues to travel and teach others his techniques.
