Dr. Mark Hickman Says a Vasectomy Can Be Reversed and Offers Two Affordable Options
Dr. Mark Hickman, MD, FACS, a surgeon in New Braunfels, TX, wants to inform those who are still not aware that vasectomy can be reversed and that he is even offering two affordable options. A typical misunderstanding is that after a period of time, a vasectomy can no longer be reversed. Dr. Hickman, who is an expert in microsurgery and laparoscopic procedures, will apply his expertise to reconnect the vas deferens and allow the semen ejaculated during sex to contain sperm again and enable the patient to regain the ability to father a child.
Dr. Hickman says, “Vasectomy reversal is not just for my male patients seeking an addition to their family. It is now being used to combat the onset of male depression following the original procedure. Many patients have seen a return to their more virile days and a lifting of the ‘male fog.’ An active member of my church I became involved with and passionate about the Men’s ACTS Retreat Ministry and currently serve on the Apostolate Board of the North American Province of the Missionaries of the Holy Family. I also currently serve on the Board of Directors of TIPHER (The Institute for Public Education, Health, and Research).”
It has been observed that up to six percent of men, or around 30,000 men every year, regret their previous decision and want to be able to father children again. Some of them might even develop mental depression, perhaps due to idea that they have made an error and nothing can be done about it. For some, they might be thinking that the price of a vasectomy reversal is too high.
Dr. Hickman has good news for those who think the procedure could be too expensive. He is offering two affordable all-inclusive options. One is priced at $3,300 and includes the use of an oral sedative and local anesthesia. The second option is available at $4,200 and includes IV sedation that is administered by a board certified anesthesiologist. It is important to note that these prices are “all-inclusive,” which means that there will be no additional costs and no surprises when it is time to pay the bill.
Dr. Hickman takes pride in his high success rate when performing vasectomy reversal. The procedure that he follows involves finding the two ends of the vas deferens and rejoining them using fine nylon suture. After locating the ends of the vas, he will free them from the surrounding scar tissue and use a powerful microscope to carefully align the two ends and join them together using a watertight enclosure. Before joining the two ends, he will take a sample fluid from the testicular end of the vas deferens and check for the presence of sperm using a laboratory microscope.
When there is no sperm in the sample fluid, it indicates an epididymal blowout, which implies there is an obstruction that is preventing the sperm from getting through. In this situation, Dr. Hickman will also need to perform a vasoepididymostomy, in addition to the vasovasostomy. But there will be no additional cost for the patient because the price quoted is all-inclusive.
Started in 1988, Microsurgical Vasectomy Reversals by Dr. Mark Hickman is a practice where he employs his pioneering techniques for performing minimally invasive surgery specifically for reversing a vasectomy. It was during his general surgery residency training at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio that he learned about the microsurgery methods that were then being used in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Realizing how microsurgery can provide a better experience for his patients, he decided to specialize microsurgery techniques and even invented a number of surgical instruments. At present, he has already completed thousands of successful vasectomy reversals, and he expects to continue to assist more men in recovering their ability to father a child and even discourage men who thinking of a vasectomy.
