Dr Christopher Love graduated from Monash University, Australia, in 1978. He spent his early training years in Melbourne before moving to Sydney to commence training as a Urology Register. He completed his Urology training in Melbourne in 1986, and then went to UCSF in San Francisco in an observing role.
He became involved in Male Health in 1987 and has been a major penile implant surgeon in Australia since that time and is now the highest volume implant surgeon in that country. Dr. Love treats patients from all parts of Australia, and from overseas, and his experience leads him to be being highly regarded amongst peers and patients, and to be acknowledged as one of Australia’s experts in penile implant surgery, and other forms of prosthetic urology.
He is also the most experienced Australian surgeon in Peyronie’s disease, and the only surgeon in the country doing length and girth restoration surgery, with penile implantation, for this condition. Dr. Love also continues to treat all aspects of general urology.
He has multiple publications on urology topics and has given numerous lectures and presentations to patient groups, urologists and primary care physicians, as well as demonstrating and teaching aspects of urologic prosthetic surgery, both nationally and internationally.
He is on the international prosthetic surgical training panel for Coloplast and Rigicon.
He is a member of Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand (USANZ), and an international member of the American Urologic Association (AUA), the Sexual Medicine Society of North America (SMSNA) and the Society of Urologic Prosthetic Surgeons (SUPS), and he maintains close ties and association with many of the leading prosthetic urologists in North America.
He is also a member of the SIU and the International Society of Sexual Medicine (ISSM).
He is a regular faculty member at the Surgical Masterclasses for Serious Implanters, run by Prof. David Ralph in London UK, and is the organiser and facilitator of biennial Australasian Surgical Masterclasses for Serious Implanters.
Dr. Love is actively involved in clinical research with male health and has been an investigator on a wide range of clinical trials within the area.
He is in private urologic surgery practice at Restore Urology at Holmesglen Private Hospital in Melbourne, Australia, and was, for many years, the senior urologist at Monash Medical Centre, Melbourne.
