Vasectomy is a quick, 15- 30 minute, surgical procedure performed in the office for permanent sterilization. Many couples choose vasectomy as a birth control option after they have completed their family. The failure rate for vasectomy is 1 in 1000 and is lower than that seen with oral contraceptives and condom usage.

Our Technique
We utilize a “ No Scalpel “ technique that allows for less pain and quicker recovery from the procedure. Patients are provided with an oral pill prior to the procedure that helps decrease anxiety. A local anesthetic is used to decrease pain during the procedure. We take great pride in providing a quick, effective and efficient procedure that is well tolerated.
