BALTIMORE CITY, Maryland - Edward Stamper put his manhood in the hands Dr. David Goldstein when he went for a penile dysfunction operation. Following the surgery, however, Stamper believed his penis had been shortened and sued the doctor. Various complications allegedly followed the surgery including the webbing of his penile tissues which caused it to pull toward his pelvis thereby cutting the original length in half. A jury in Baltimore City awarded the patient $1 million for the pain and suffering he endured, and perhaps for grief counseling. Wife Oma Gay Stamper received her own sum of $500,000 for the estimated effect on their marriage.
