If there's one thing you can count on in life, it's that your body will change over time. Many men in their early 20s feel bulletproof and ready to take on the world. But it's only a matter of time before age starts to play a part in day-to-day life. Injuries take a longer time to heal, hangovers seem to last longer than ever, and aches and pains become part of normal life. For many men approaching middle age, something more concerning than backaches begins to happen: their ability to be intimate becomes more difficult. If you find that your love life is becoming or has become compromised, you're not alone - more than 18 million men are affected by erectile dysfunction in the U.S.
While it's completely normal to have trouble in the bedroom as you get older, that doesn't mean you have to settle for it. Unfortunately, in the past, men were taught to just “suck it up” and deal with their problems in private. Thankfully, those days are long gone. If you're ready to fight back against ED and regain your lost passion, Alpha Med Group has the erectile dysfunction treatment in Cityname, State, you've been looking for.

We know it can be tempting to give up and accept the dull new life ahead of you. But we're here to tell you there is a better way to age. If you're ready to live as you did in your prime, our integrative aging services will help you meet your goals and enjoy life with more energy, youth, and passion.
At Alpha Med Group, our doctors focus on an integrative health approach. We use multimodal strategies to help you take control of your health through quality healthcare, positive life choices, proper diet, and staying active. When combined with the latest research in anti-aging and regenerative medicine, our patients benefit from a fully personalized approach. Unlike other health clinics, our programs target the root causes of our patient's symptoms. That way, they can enjoy a healthy, fulfilling life in public and also in the bedroom.
We're proud to have everything you need to improve your health and achieve your goals. Our providers will expertly handle your nuanced health challenges using advanced therapies like GAINSWave treatments to achieve a results-based outcome you'll love.
Some of the most common conditions we treat at Alpha Med Group include:
When it comes to male health, talking about sex can still feel a little taboo, even in today's modern times. That's especially true when there are deficiencies or performance concerns at play. If you're a man reading this and you're nodding your head in agreement, we know how you're feeling. Thankfully, you don't have to be angry or embarrassed about your performance for much longer.
While your primary care doctor might start you off with ED medications, such options don't really offer real solutions to your problem. Plus, they can cause concerning side effects. Thankfully there's a new, revolutionary therapy on the market called GAINSWave, and we'd be willing to bet it's unlike anything you've tried before.
Unlike most ED options, GAINSWave doesn't require drugs or surgery. Instead, it uses innovative acoustic waves to boost blood flow and stimulate tissues in your penis while also breaking up micro plaques. That means you can say goodbye to the days of sketchy blue pills and painful surgeries.
GAINSWave offers the first non-surgical ED option that helps with Peyronie's Disease and premature ejaculation as well. Alpha Med Group's GAINSWave treatments are painless and safe for most men suffering from erectile dysfunction. If you're looking for a no-nonsense, discreet way to enhance your sexual performance and achieve more substantial erections, GAINSWave is the long-term solution you need. Some benefits of GAINSWave treatments include:
You're probably thinking to yourself, “This all sounds great, but how does it work?” Don't worry; we've got you covered.
GAINSWave might sound too good to be true on the surface. However, this type of erectile dysfunction treatment in Clearwater uses science-based, research-backed applications and technologies that have been proven to be effective.
GAINSWave works by targeting the underlying issue of ED: blood flow. Continuous blood flow is critical in maintaining an erection. As men age, blood vessels in their penis break down and fill up with micro plaques, further reducing blood flow. GAINSWave treatment addresses this issue using low-intensity shockwaves or acoustic pulses to re-open closed blood vessels and help form new ones simultaneously. This increased blood flow essentially eliminates the symptoms of erectile dysfunction, letting men across the country gain a new lease on life.
Because this procedure is drug, surgery, and needle-free, most men won't have to stress about costly insurance claims or ugly scarring. All you need to think about is enjoying life with a new pep in your step, whether you're headed to work or spending time with your spouse in the bedroom.
Alpha Med Group's patients love that GAINSWave is quick, effective, and gets right to the root cause of their issues. Our GAINSWave treatments yield long-term results with optimized sexual performance and even treat other issues like Peyronie's disease.
Any man older than 30 can enjoy the benefits of GAINSWave therapy. Men with or without erectile dysfunction use GAINSWave to reshape their sex lives without resorting to over-the-counter pills and prescriptions like Cialis. While it's true that the “blue pill” can temporarily relieve ED, that relief is short-lived because pills don't address the root cause of the issue. To make matters worse, many drugs have unwanted and unsafe side effects. GAINSWave represents a much safer, more effective solution for men who are sick and tired of the stress and embarrassment associated with ED.
Whether you're dealing with severe erectile dysfunction or you simply want a little more spark with your partner, GAINSWave is the surgery-free, drug-free alternative you can rely on.
To help you get a better understanding of Alpha Med Group's GAINSWave therapy, consider these quick facts:
In today's day and age, products that promise quick results and convenience are king. It makes sense, then, that many men want the fastest solution to their ED problem. While it's easy to pop a “little blue pill,” doing so can come with consequences that you don't get with GAINSWave treatment. And when it comes to sketchy over-the-counter options that you can buy at your local gas station, the risks are quite concerning. Before you re-up your prescription or head to the gas station, consider these side effects:
If you're one of the many men who settled for strange side effects just to regain confidence in the bedroom, it's time to celebrate. Rather than relying on prescriptions or a la carte options, health-conscious men are using GAINSWave treatments for a safer, natural solution with no side effects.
Despite the fact that millions of men around the country suffer from erectile dysfunction, most males won't talk about it. Maybe it's because they're embarrassed. Maybe it's because they simply don't understand what's going on. However, ignoring the issue can have long-term consequences and may result in problems like Peyronie's disease.
Peyronie's disease, which affects about 9% of men, can occur at any age. It is most often characterized by a curve or bend in the penis, caused by fibrous scar tissue proliferating under the penis' surface. If the scar tissue isn't treated correctly, it can make achieving an erection difficult, creating a painful curve that makes sex almost impossible. Sometimes, symptoms of Peyronie's disease can work themselves out but most often, men need treatment to regain a healthy sex life.
While having a curve in your penis is relatively normal, having pain and discomfort with an erection most certainly is not, and a good sign that you need help. Fortunately, GAINSWave therapy has helped many men regain their sexual performance by reducing the curvature of the penis caused by Peyronie's disease.
Men suffering from Peyronie's disease may notice an array of symptoms, which may manifest quickly or slowly. Some of the most common symptoms include:
Severe Bend of Penis: One of the most common symptoms of Peyronie's disease is significant bending of the penis in a certain direction, with or without achieving an erection.
If you're one of the many American men who has lost hope because of Peyronie's disease, there is a new reason to be hopeful. Peyronie's disease is treatable, and you don't have to rely on surgery, vacuum devices, or a wait-and-see approach to get results.
If you're a man searching for a safe, non-invasive, natural treatment option for Peyronie's disease, GAINSWave therapy is the way to go. GAINSWave incorporates premium low-intensity, high-frequency shockwaves that break down plaque (or scar tissue) while opening and creating new blood vessels. When blood flow is increased, the penis curvature associated with Peyronie's disease is often reduced, giving men a new chance to enjoy a healthy sex life.
In today's modern world, with health-centric social influencers and body biohackers around every corner, the bar is high for body optimization. Peak performance in the bedroom is no exception. Men of all ages across the nation are searching for a certain edge in the bedroom. They want longer endurance, stronger erections, and a more enhanced sexual experience with partners.
Even men in their 20s and 30s, with no medical conditions, are trying gas station erection pills, injections, penis pumps, and other dangerous products to supercharge their penis and performance. Luckily for them (and you), GAINSWave can provide a natural, long-term solution that adds extra spice to your sex life.
Many men find short-term satisfaction in taking pills for better erections, but the truth is, these drugs are harmful when used frequently or recreationally. Males who take these pills risk becoming psychologically dependent and unable to perform when they're not around. In fact, men without medical conditions who rely on “little blue pills” for sexual enhancement may not be able to achieve a normal erection with their partner.
If you want to enhance your sex life and improve your erection quality, it's time to consider a long-term, natural solution like GAINSWave from Alpha Med Group.
For strong erections, you need to have blood flow to your penis. There are plenty of natural ways you can boost blood flow and improve your sexual performance. Some options include exercising, eating healthy, and managing stress in productive ways. Foods that help increase blood flow can also help reduce inflammation in your body too. If you're a smoker, try lowering your daily cigarette intake and add supplements to your diet, like vitamin D.
But if you're looking to take things up a notch in the bedroom, GAINSWave is the way to go. This proven, non-invasive treatment helps produce better erections and boost libido by increasing blood flow to your penis and stimulating the growth of new nerve tissue and blood vessels.
At Alpha Med Group, our focus is on your goals, your results, and your experience. We firmly believe that your story matters and our team is ready and waiting to listen. We provide functional, personalized, regenerative medicines that address root causes, coupled with an industry-leading, progressive care strategy that is centered around our patients.

Whether you need help with embarrassing symptoms related to erectile dysfunction or you're looking to revive your sex life with a natural solution, we're here for you.

OLDSMAR, Fla. — An Oldsmar city computer reportedly visited a website hosting malicious code that targeted water utilities in the hours leading up to the city’s water treatment plan being hacked, a new report from the security firm Dragos said.
The Oldsmar water hack saw someone try to poison the water supply with lye, but it was discovered before any damage could be done. While the website ultimately didn’t play a role in the hack of the water supply system in Oldsmar, Dragos said the overall incident shined a light on IT security in the infrastructure in the United States.
The report, released Tuesday, found the website hosting the code was a Florida water utility contractor site. Dragos labeled the attack as a “watering hole attack.” According to the Computer Security Resource Center, a watering hole attack features an attacker “compromising a site likely to be visited by a particular group, rather than attacking the target group directly.”
In the case of the Oldsmar attack, Dragos found damaging code “inserted into the footer of a WordPress-based site associated with a Florida water infrastructure constructions company.” Dragos speculated the code was inserted through vulnerable WordPress plugins. Once the code was inserted into the legitimate site, the attackers began collecting information.
According to the Dragos report, the hack of the site started on December 20, 2020, and was on there until February 16, 2021. While the malicious code was live, the site interacted with “computers from municipal water utility customers, state and local government agencies, various water industry-related private companies, and normal internet bot and website crawler traffic.” Dragos said that over “1,000 end-user computers were profiled by the code” with most being in the U.S. and in the state of Florida.
For the Oldsmar attack, Dragos found a computer on a network belonging to the city went to the infected site at 9:49 a.m. on February 5, 2021. Dragos said the same network from the city was where an unknown actor, likely separate from the criminals who put the malicious code on the website, “reportedly compromised a water treatment control plant computer on the morning of February 5th and attempted to poison the water supply…”
As Dragos investigated, it was able to determine the malicious was able to gather more than 100 pieces of data about the visitors including: operating system and CPU, browser-type, touchpoints, input methods, presence of camera, microphone, video card display adapter details, video codecs, and more. The code led Dragos to a “Dark Market” online, but also exposed what Dragos felt was the true nature of the malicious code.
“Dragos’ best assessment is that an actor deployed the watering hole on the water infrastructure construction company site to collect legitimate browser data for the purpose of improving the botnet malware’s ability to impersonate legitimate web browser activity,” Dragos’ report found.
“We have medium confidence it (malicious code) did not directly compromise any organization,” the report said. “But it does represent an exposure risk to the water industry and highlights the importance of controlling access to untrusted websites, especially for Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control System (ICS) environments.”
The criminals who accessed the Oldsmar site did so due to lax security and shared passwords.. Specifically, the FBI said, “the cyber actors likely accessed the system by exploiting cybersecurity weaknesses including poor password security, and an outdated Windows 7 operating system to compromise software used to remotely manage water treatment. The actor also likely used the desktop sharing software TeamViewer to gain unauthorized access to the system.”
Experts say some small cities, both Florida and nationally — as well as their utilities — lack proper cybersecurity.A year after a cyberattack on the city of Oldsmar’s water system last year, experts are reflecting on the state of security for utilities around Florida.The cyber breach of the water treatment plant, which took place on Feb. 5, 2021, raised concerns, as a hacke...
A year after a cyberattack on the city of Oldsmar’s water system last year, experts are reflecting on the state of security for utilities around Florida.
The cyber breach of the water treatment plant, which took place on Feb. 5, 2021, raised concerns, as a hacker tried to poison the city’s water supply by increasing sodium hydroxide levels.
The next month, the head of Florida’s Department of Law Enforcement said that the water plant’s security was “extremely lax.”
Rick Swearingen said that a lack of security features such as two factor authorization and stronger firewalls made the water system’s technology vulnerable to attack.
A year later, many experts still feel the same way.
In an email, Tufts University computer security professor Ming Chow said he has “no confidence that utilities are doing anything to protect themselves.”
Among the problems he mentioned are weak passwords, and web infrastructure that continues to be used despite having problems “year after year.”
An additional shortcoming for utilities, according to another expert, is the size of the cybersecurity workforce.
“The cybersecurity industry is suffering from a talent deficit. There is a huge talent gap between supply and demand,” said Ron Sanders, staff director for the Florida Center for Cybersecurity.
Sanders added that these smaller cities and counties have a more difficult time competing for skilled cybersecurity workers. On top of that, employees at smaller water treatment plants and similar utilities simply don’t know cybersecurity best practices.
Some of these “cyber hygiene” practices include stronger passwords, identity management, and multiple factor authorization.
Sanders also highlighted a new initiative from the White House to combat these issues. In a Jan. 27 announcement, the administration said the Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Cybersecurity Initiative will be extended to the water sector.
This involves developing and encouraging technologies that will help “monitor their systems and provide near real-time situational awareness and warnings.”
Sanders feels that the “silver lining” behind the Oldsmar water hack was the national spotlight it put on water treatment facilities and their computer security. He feels that a national plan like the ICS Initiative is a step in the right direction.
“That's one of the things that the government can and will do is identify and distribute those best practices and provide technical assistance to jurisdictions so that they can adopt and adapt those best practices to their own local circumstances,” he said.
Creating uniform government or cyber insurance requirements with some of these best practices, Sanders added, would also bolster the security of these utilities.
In addition, “cyber pooling,” or putting skilled cybersecurity workers in charge of multiple jurisdictions and pooling jurisdictions’ resources to finance it, is another option.
But the good news from all of this, according to Sanders is that “so many of these attacks can be easily thwarted.”
He said that with proper “cyber hygiene” practices, such as taking extra care when clicking on links, watching out for phishing attacks, and keeping password information secure, can help prevent almost 80% of attacks.

OLDSMAR — The four candidates vying for two open Oldsmar City Council seats on March 15 faced each other for the first time during a candidates’ forum hosted by the League of Women Voters of Pinellas County and the Upper Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce on Jan. 27.
The event was nearly canceled due to COVID and other concerns, forcing organizers to switch to a virtual session hosted by last-minute replacement former Clearwater City Council member Bill Jonson. Each candidate — Doug Bevis and Jarrod Buchman for Seat 2 and incumbent Eric Seidel and challenger Dan Saracki for mayor — expounded on key campaign issues, namely the downtown development project.
The question of whether the council should allow a bonus density increase that could pave the way for a mixed-use residential and retail complex on a 10-acre lot next to City Hall has become the hot button issue of this campaign season, and none of the contenders shied away from the subject when asked.
“Let me clarify something — we’re not changing the density from 30 to 65 (units per acre),” Seidel said. “What we’re doing is creating an incentive.”
Seidel, who is seeking a second term after promising to get the long-gestating downtown revitalization project off the ground during his first campaign, argued that by having the incentive in place the city could control the makeup of the development, as current zoning allows for five-story parking garages and six-story structures featuring apartment and office space.
“What we’re saying is that we want to create an incentive that we go to the developer and say, ‘Listen, we don’t want all that office space,” he explained. ‘“What we’d rather have is more residential space and if you’ll build it this way, retail on the bottom and go up, we’ll grant you that opportunity.’”
Saracki, the current Seat 2 holder who was first elected in 2015, made it clear he is vehemently opposed to the proposed density bonus.
“As the mayor just said, we are zoned currently right now for six stories and 150 apartments,” he said. “They want to change the density so they can build over 317 apartments on the property right next door here to City Hall. That. Is. Disastrous.”
Saracki said the group of residents opposed to the proposed increase “want to keep our hometown feel here in Oldsmar. We don’t need to increase the density. We can build a downtown that the people will love … without increasing the density. I am totally against the increase of the density.”
Bevis, a former mayor and council member who worked to develop the downtown during his tenure, noted in his opening remarks that while he’s in support of the downtown development, “lately it has sucked a lot of the oxygen out of the room,” adding there are a lot of options for the property. “I hope we get to talk more about it and specifically the density increase,” he said.
Meanwhile, Buchman, a political newcomer who has served on several civic boards, said he’s in favor of a walkable downtown, though, like Saracki, he is adamantly opposed to the density increase.
“As most people know, I’ve taken a strong issue against the proposed density increase,” Buchman said, adding he’ll “continue to maintain that position until I see something that makes sense to me. But I don’t think the process has been given the proper vetting.”
Indeed, on the equally divisive subject of allowing more resident input on major projects in the form of town hall meetings, the opponents once again stood on opposite sides of the issue, with Saracki and Buchman voicing support for additional public forums while Seidel and Bevis said there are plenty of opportunities to speak on important issues during the regular council meetings and other workshops.
“Whether you call it a public hearing or whether you call it a town hall meeting, the formats are the same,” Seidel said. “Everyone has an opportunity to speak.”
Due to the similar formats, however, Seidel proposed having “show and tell” sessions between officials and residents. “But we need to have something in front of us that we can show and tell about,” he said.
Jonson also asked the candidates questions related to sea level rise, infrastructure, transportation, and goals should they be elected; when he asked how Oldsmar can maintain its small-town feel, Bevis had a reply that seemed to strike at the heart of the development/density issue.
“I’m not sure we are a small town,” Bevis said. “We’re not a Waldo, Florida. That’s a small town. We have a small-town feel and we never, ever forget that. But we have some modern, great things, like the reverse osmosis plant. So, we’re not really a small town. We’re a vibrant, live energetic town, but not necessarily a small town. We’re a transit corridor that has more cars going up and down Tampa Road than you have going over the Courtney Campbell Causeway. That doesn’t really happen in a small town.”
