Among all the tubal reversal doctors that say they will do your tubal ligation reversal surgery, how do you know which is the right one to choose? In the rest of this article, I hope you will learn about some of the information you should ask any potential surgeon to find out if he or she will be right for you. After all, whether it is to have another child or for relief of post tubal ligation syndrome, you are putting so much of your future into this person’s hands. You want to make the right choice.

Let’s begin with the surgeon’s background. Where did he go to school? This includes his or her undergraduate schooling as well as the medical school. Was it pretty exclusive and were they top ranking schools? How about where he did his internship and residency? Were these done at notable institutions? What sort of tubal reversal training did he receive during this time? Did he even get to see even one tubal ligation reversal being done during this time? Because this is considered an elective surgery and most insurance won’t pay for it, it doesn’t get done in hospitals where most doctors are trained.

Now, let’s ask about their experience. What kind of experience do any of the tubal reversal doctors you are looking at have in actually performing the surgery? How many times a year do the surgeons you are looking at actually perform this operation? Many doctors who are happy to perform the operation for you do this as a sometimes occurrence. Does the doctor you are looking at perform this operation every working day of the year, except for vacation and holidays? Or has he maybe done three in the last four years or some other ridiculous statistic? Is this all your doctor does or is this a very sometime thing that he does now and then in addition to doing lots of other things? How well can he possibly do the surgery if he doesn’t keep in practice?

Your tubal reversal doctor’s technique for carrying out the surgery is the next thing we look at in this article. How does he actually do the surgery? Does he do it through very small incisions? How does he make sure the tubes are aligned? How does he test to be sure the tubes are not blocked? It would be a shame to pay for the surgery, and go through it only to find out there is a blockage.

How about his communications? Does he provide lines of communication to answer all your questions? How easy is it to talk to him or his staff? Do you feel you are being heard and listened to? Can you get into contact with any of his previous tubal reversal patients to get a recommendation? What do others, including his patients, say about him?

Cost - Even if the result of your tubal reversal is priceless, whether it’s that new baby you want so much or the relief from your post tubal ligation syndrome symptoms, cost is still a factor. Unless you are very fortunate with your health insurance for tubal reversal, chance are you will have to pay for the surgery yourself one way or another. Prices vary widely for this surgery from a few thousand up to and beyond $20,000. So how much will your surgeon cost you?

How about the statistics surrounding this doctor’s success rates to reverse tubal ligation? Does he even collect the information? What kind? Can you look at it to find what chances your tube length or age or even the tubal procedure you had done will give you with him? I’m not talking about statistics for all tubal reversals done around the world or just in your country. I mean his specific stats that will let you know how well he does at this. Of course, if he hasn’t done more than a few, it won’t do you much good to have the information any way.

The above factors will give you a good start to narrowing down that list of tubal reversal doctors. They will help you pick the one surgeon who will give you the best chance to achieve your purpose in having this procedure done. Sure, there are more things to consider including information about the surgical facility but these will give you a good start.
