Pregnancy - Here Comes the Family

Every year in the U.S. alone hundreds of thousands of women are persuaded to undergo tubal ligation surgery. The number varies depending upon the source but of those women who do this, many will decide they want to reverse the surgery. The premiere place to do so is the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.

Among the many other positives about the center, one of the best is the level of expertise brought on by the fact that tubal reversals are all that is done there. You won’t find in vitro fertilization. You won’t find vasectomy reversals being done or any other kind of surgery. What is done is only tubal ligation reversals. This means the staff is second to none in regards to experience with the procedure. Their time is not taken up with other types of procedures. No one can match their expertise.

Perhaps what makes this center the premiere place begins with Dr. Gary Berger. No one has the education, training or medical background that Dr. Berger has in this specialized field. For more detailed information about his background, please check out the pages on drbergertubal.com. Add his background to the fact that tubal reversals are all he does and that he does them four times a day, five days a week, and you have experience that no one else can match.

The surgical staff of technologists at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center are second to none. These are the people who make sure everything within the operating room is as it should be. You may not ever see their faces behind their surgical masks but they are the ones that make sure all equipment works as it should, that the operating room is meticulous and all is sterile for your surgery. Dr. Berger’s first assistant has been with him for 18 years. If she doesn’t know the drill by now, you sure won’t find it elsewhere. Among doctors who use staff at whatever hospital they work with, the surgical staff can change from time to time, especially since most other surgeons perform tubal reversal much less often than Dr. Berger.

Long term staff goes for the Director of Anesthesia at the center as well. Dr. Caryn Hertz has worked at the center since 1995 following her five year stint at Duke University Medical Center. That she worked at Duke and now works with the staff at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal should show what a top notch doctor she is. Again, this long term association with the team will mean your surgery is in great hands. No wondering just how much experience the anesthesiologist that your luck of the draw at some hospital will pull up.

Looking at the nursing staff next will again show you the quality of the people who work at CHTRC. Some have been there long term as well. What really matters is how much they really care for the women who come to the center looking for a second chance at having a baby. Most likely it’s the nursing staff who will talk to you and answer your questions. You can even talk to them via the message board at forums.tubal-reversal.net.

Maybe what I should mention next is the message board that allows all the ladies who are thinking about having a tubal reversal talk to all the ones who have had the surgery. It forms the basis of a type of support group though it is not officially one. Not only that but you can get your questions answered there by the staff as well. Sometimes even Dr. Berger will drop in and answer questions. You will find the latest pregnancy announcements,too.

And what other surgeon or center do you know of that follows up past the six week in office check up? At the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center, they contact you at six months and again at one year after your reversal surgery. Dr. Berger and his staff have even had contact with some ladies years after their surgery when they needed advice on fertility issues. Using the information collected post operation and what was collected before, the center maintains a database that allows them to answer the question women will ask prior to their surgery - What are the success rates? You will know the statistics for this center specifically and not some general statistics for all doctors.
