Reliable Vasectomy Reversal at Accessible Cost Earns Dr. Mark Hickman Another Five Star Review

Dr. Mark Hickman, MD, FACS, a vasectomy reversal surgeron based in New Braunfels, TX, takes pride in announcing a new five star review from a former patient who praised “his excellent pricing and excellent service.” Currently, Dr. Hickman has an overall rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars on Google. He is offering the vasectomy reversal procedure at two all-inclusive options. The first option is at $3,300 for the procedure with an oral sedative and local anesthesia. The second all-inclusive option is priced at $4,200 where the patient will be under IV sedation that will be administered by a board certified anesthesiologist.

In the above-mentioned five star review, AshandDan R. said, “Professional meets personal meets passion. If I was Michael Scott, I’d come back to Hickman’s office every time. Fortunately for me I think this will be my only time. But if it weren’t for Hickman and his excellent pricing and excellent service, I would be stuck with my foolish vasectomy choice from my younger years.”

Dr. Hickman has gained the reputation of being a highly skilled microsurgical surgeon on a mission of allowing men who have realized getting a vasectomy was a mistake to regain their ability to father a child. He has more than 26 years of experience and has already completed over 1,300 vasectomy reversals. He also has experience in “correcting” some vasectomy reversals that have been done by other providers but somehow had failed.

To reverse a vasectomy, he makes use of laparoscopy, which is a surgery method that uses smaller incisions to perform a procedure that offers the benefit of being less invasive with smaller scars, less pain, and much quicker healing. Instead of the typical six- to 12-inch-long incisions used in regular surgery, the laparoscopic procedure only needs small incisions about a half-inch long. This is possible because of the laparoscope, which is a device consisting of a small tube with a tiny video camera at one end. This camera is connected to a video monitor, which allows the surgeon to see what he is working on.

In the vasectomy reversal procedure, Dr. Hickman searches for the two ends of the vas deferens and frees them from the surrounding scar tissue. He will join the two ends using fine nylon suture and an operating microscope, carefully ensuring that the lumen of the two ends of the vas are properly aligned and that a watertight closure is provided. However, before joining the two ends together, he will get a sample fluid from the testicular end and examine it under a microscope. If there is no sperm or sperm parts in the fluid, this indicates the presence of an obstruction, which is called an epididymal blowout. This is due to a rupture in the epididymis and Dr. Hickman will have to perform a vasoepididymostomy in addition to the vasovasostomy to have a higher chance of success. Nevertheless, the patient need not worry because there will be no additional charges since the price quoted is all-inclusive.

Established in 1988, Microsurgical Vasectomy Reversals by Dr. Mark Hickman is a practice where he applies his pioneering microsurgical and minimally invasive techniques for reversing a vasectomy. Dr. Hickman learned about the microsurgery techniques being applied then in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery when he underwent general surgery residence training at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Realizing how microsurgery can offer a much better experience for his patients, he decided to use such microsurgery methods for his vasectomy reversal practice and even developed a number of surgical instruments for the minimally invasive approach. He has already completed thousands of successful vasectomy reversals resulting in new babies for happy parents.
