How are you? Hypospadia is usually repaired during the first 18 months of life. Surgical treatment brings about reconstructing the missing urethra, correcting the penis curvature and creating an aesthetical appearance of the penis, the glans and the meatus similar to normal. For completion surgery on hypospadia, the most appropriate doctor to go to for consultation are pediatric surgeons. This link may be of help: http://www.urethralsurgery.com/hypospadia.asp

Take care and keep us posted.
