Dr. Mark Hickman Offers Expertise to Reverse a Vasectomy

Dr. Mark Hickman, MD, FACS, a surgeon in New Braunfels, TX, is pleased to announce that he is offering his expertise in a minimally invasive procedure to reverse a vasectomy to men who want to have the ability to procreate again. He is especially keen on informing men about the negative experiences of men who had a vasectomy, such as chronic pain or increased sensitivity in their testicles and the feeling that they have lost something important in their lives. He is highly skilled and experienced in microsurgery, which he has been using for the successful reversal of vasectomies during a period of over 26 years, resulting into thousands of births.

He obtained his medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, TX, at the age of 23. Next, he received extensive training during his general surgery residency at the University of Texas during a period of five years. And it was during his residency that he was introduced to microsurgery that is performed by plastic and reconstructive surgeons. He soon realized the many benefits provided by microsurgery, particularly in minimizing the impact of a procedure on the patient. After this residency, Dr. Hickman established his private practice in New Braunfels in 1988 and he soon earned the reputation of being one of the pioneers in laparoscopic surgery. He also taught about minimally invasive surgery methods to other upcoming surgeons.

Dr. Hickman is also involved in vasectomy reversal ministries where he is focused on discouraging men from undergoing vasectomy. He believes that the procedure of blocking the tubes where the sperm goes through for the process of procreation is artificial and contradicts God’s purpose for human sexuality and fertility. He will also relate stories about men who got encouraged to have sexual relationships with women other than their wife because they no longer have to worry about getting another women pregnant. While there may be good reasons for a married couple to stop having children, there are natural family planning techniques that don’t have the negative effects of having a vasectomy. He is an active member of his church and he is involved in the Men’s ACTS Retreat Ministry and he is a part of the Apostolate Board for the North American Province of the Missionaries of the Holy Family. And he wants those who have undergone vasectomy to know that it is not yet too late because he can use his expertise in performing a microsurgical repair of the vas deferens.

He offers the vasectomy reversal procedure for an all-inclusive fee, which means patients are assured that there will be no surprises, such as hidden fees. He has also made it easier to men from other places who just want to go to New Braunfels to undergo the procedure. He offers two options. One option is priced at $3,300 and this includes the use of an oral sedative and oral anesthesia. The other option is priced at $4,200 and includes IV sedation that is done by a board-certified anesthesiologist. And for out-of-town patients, he has signed special accommodation deals with local hotels to allow patients to enjoy as much as 50 percent off their hotel rates.

Dr. Hickman has more than 26 years of experience and in that time, he had earned the reputation of being on of the top minimally invasive surgeons. Having done over 1,300 vasectomy reversals, he truly deserves his reputation. In addition, he has also ‘corrected’ a number of vasectomy reversals done by other providers. And he is also committed to offering affordable all-inclusive vasectomy reversal options. And he wants to emphasize that vasectomy reversal is not just for men who want to be able to procreate again but it may also help in preventing male depression in men who had vasectomy, especially those who were only pressured into undergoing the procedure.
