Free Vasectomy Reversal - Is It Possible?

You had a vasectomy. Now you've changed your mind and want a vasectomy reversal. You've looked around and are astounded at the prices quoted by urologists and infertility specialists. How can they charge so much? Where can you find a free vasectomy reversal?

If you are looking for a free vasectomy reversal you had better have some kind of connection to a doctor to obtain one. You can find free initial consultations and maybe even free second surgeries on a vasectomy reversal if the first operation doesn't succeed. (See our article on Money Back Guarantee Vasectomy Reversal.) But if you think some physician who has years of training is going to give away his work for free, think again.

Look at it this way. You work at a job and presumably have some skill that may have taken you years of schooling and on the job training to gain. If a person off the street asked you to perform work for them, in your field of expertise, for free, simply because you know how to do it, you would most likely say, "No." You use your skill and experience, which has been hard won, to create an income for you to pay for your family, your housing, your transportation, the food you put on the table, your bills, and any extras you may have such as cable television and an Internet connection.

Why then would you think an urologist or fertility specialist should give you a free vasectomy reversal? Most physicians spend much more time in schooling than "regular folks" running up huge education bills. Then there is more training within their specialties and the follow on experience that must be gained by performing the operations. It takes your potential vasectomy reversal surgeon years to gain the skill to perform such delicate surgery. Why should he receive no pay for his work?

Even if you were so lucky as to get a surgeon to waive his own fees, you would still be left with the medical facility fees, initial blood work and testing fees (which just might be paid for by your insurance company), anesthesiologist's fees and any nursing staff's salaries. So the chances that you could find someone to give you a free vasectomy reversal is slim to none.

If you do look around online you will find one such offer of a free vasectomy reversal...at least free of the surgeon's fees. But in his own words, "This sort of offer is rather extraordinary... But in every case it was something I initiated, rather than something the patient asked for. So if you’re out there thinking, "Wow! Free reversal surgery!" — think, David Spade: "No!" The only way you will get a free vasectomy reversal is having someone else pay all your fees. Have a rich uncle?
