Rick Humphrey

Rick Humphrey is a patient who had a prostatectomy to treat his prostate cancer.
==History==
Rick was in the hospital with prostate cancer. When Izzie went into his room to do a pre-operative exam, he kicked her out after recognizing her as the model in a lingerie ad he had used as a masturbatory aid. He refused to let her touch him.
When a biopsy revealed that the cancer was localized to his prostate, his surgeon planned a radical prostatectomy, giving him a high chance of being completely cured. However, it would involve severing the nerves, including those used to derive sexual pleasure. Izzie, with Bailey's help, convinced Dr. Victor to do a longer surgery that didn't involve severing the nerves, which would allow Rick to have a more normal sex life after his surgery.
