About Dr. Samuel Hakim
Dr. Samuel Hakim cares for adults’ general urologic concerns and focuses on minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotically assisted surgeries. He also specializes in performing vasectomy reversals using a surgical technique that he helped pioneer.
He joined Urology San Antonio in August 2009 after concluding 24 years of service in the U.S. Air Force Medical Corps. Prior to his military retirement, Dr. Hakim was a lieutenant colonel and the urology flight commander at Wilford Hall Medical Center.
When he retired from the military in 2009, Dr. Hakim entered private practice with Urology San Antonio and helped the practice open a location in the Westover Hills area where he continues to see patients. Additionally, he spearheaded an initiative to make the practice one of the first civilian clinics in the United States offering couples the fibrin glue vasectomy reversal technique.
When he is not working in the clinic or the operating room, Dr. Hakim enjoys being physically active. In 2004, he completed the Ironman Florida Triathlon. He also enjoys the more leisurely sport of golf. Dr. Hakim and his wife Toni are blessed with three children.

What his patients say
“I am completely satisfied with the entire staff, the location, and Dr. Hakim. He cured my bladder cancer. He is my hero!”
“My wife was diagnosed…with bladder cancer. Doctor’s Haverkorn and Hakim, of Urology San Antonio, counseled us at that time …Dr. Hakim did the surgery today at the Pasteur Plaza Surgery Center and all went well. Dr. Hakim is an excellent surgeon and a gentleman who really cares…and trust me I’d know, having spent 9 years in the Army as an operating room technician. He explained everything in layman’s terms so my wife fully understood the risks and the benefits. I will happily recommend Urology San Antonio, Dr. Hakim, Dr. Haverkorn and the Pasteur Plaza Surgery Center to anyone who needs this type of medical care. It has become obvious to me they all truly do “care”! As my brother often observes, “the key to any successful business is to make each person feel like he or she is the only reason they opened their doors today”. This is exactly how Dr. Hakim, Dr. Haverkorn and the entire staff at Pasteur Plaza Surgery Center made me, my wife and each and every one of their patients feel. Amazing!”
