The doctor was great, really explained everything as much as he could and helped loads
For anyone considering this procedure, my experience was a mixed bag, but the medical care itself was solid. My surgeon performed a vasovasostomy and was very honest about success chances, especially given my original vasectomy was 5–10 years ago. The doctor was great, really explained everything as much as he could and helped loads. Staff were good and very attentive also. I’m feeling about as expected in my recovery and the clinic gave me a clear aftercare guide. The main issue was the catering. Honestly, the food, it was boring or disgusting not good. There was no choice of meals or drinks for me or my partner. It's my one big piece of advice for others: bring plenty of your own food and drink for your stay.

The food, it was boring or disgusting not good. There was no choice of meals, snacks or even drinks before, during or after surgery and my same for my partner. Nobody questioned why we hadnt eaten any of the food either.

The English coordinators were amazing, very helpful and a joy to work with
The English coordinators were amazing, very helpful and a joy to work with. They made the process so much easier. I'm very grateful for them. Apart from one incident where a nurse ignored my four requests for pain medication while I was unwell on the ward, my experience with staff was generally good. My surgeon was direct about a realistic final cup size and carefully explained the anchor incision technique and scar placement, marking me meticulously before surgery. Since the procedure, the clinic has stayed in touch, providing a clear aftercare guide and being easy to reach. I did have some additional expenses for take-home medication and an extra night at the hotel. My advice is to do your research and communicate concerns like my medication sensitivity beforehand. Also, be prepared that you might not like the hospital food.

Apart from one incident of a nurse ignoring me and not wanting ro give me pain medication while in pain and unwell after asking her 4 times on the ward, I had a good experience with staff in general.
