Meet Dr. Geo
Hi, I’m Dr. Geovanni Espinosa, though most people call me Dr. Geo or just Geo.
My mission is simple: to help you improve your prostate health, thrive after prostate cancer, and live better with age.
I was born and raised in the Bronx, New York, by Cuban parents, and the vibrant environment shaped my passion for learning. This curiosity led me to study naturopathic and functional medicine, eventually specializing in Urology at Columbia University. Today, I’m proud to serve as a faculty member of the Department of Urology at NYU Langone Health.
I’m deeply passionate about prostate health, testosterone, and erectile function. I use a combination of nutraceuticals—like medicinal herbs, vitamins, and minerals—along with lifestyle practices to help my patients achieve better prostate health and improve outcomes after prostate cancer. I also appreciate the advancements in science around medical treatments for urological issues and judiciously recommend them when appropriate.
Beyond my work, I’m a husband and father of three amazing kids, a deeply cherished role. Raising good children is one of the most important things we can do to create a better world.
When I’m not in the clinic or sharing health insights, I’m strength training or practicing Krav Maga to stay physically and mentally sharp.
Thanks for visiting. I’m here to provide clear, actionable information so you can feel confident about your prostate health, prostate cancer journey, testosterone, and sexual health. Much love!

Medical Philosophy
“Health is the ability to prevent disease, recover effectively when illness arises, and function at one’s best, allowing for more time spent doing what you love.”
– Dr. Geo
Physician as a Partner: Physicians should work alongside patients, understanding their values and priorities to provide tailored solutions for prostate health, including prostate cancer. Decisions are made collaboratively, blending medical expertise with patient preferences.
Address the Root Cause: The focus is on addressing the underlying causes of health issues rather than merely alleviating symptoms.
Whole-Body Treatment: A holistic approach is essential, recognizing the interconnectedness of the body’s systems. Hormones, stress, circulation, and muscle tension all play a role in urological health.
Emphasize Natural Methods: Treatment should prioritize natural, non-invasive approaches—such as lifestyle changes, supplements, balanced diet, exercise, stress management, and quality sleep—as primary options or in conjunction with medical treatments. Natural approaches with minimal side effects are explored first whenever possible.
Blend Evidence with Clinical Experience: Healthcare providers should stay informed on the latest research, listen with empathy, and apply clinical experience to deliver the best possible outcomes.
