    Dr. G is by far the best physician I have ever dealt with, and it’s not even close. He explains everything very thoroughly and in a way that is easily understood. He also very clearly cares about his patients in a way that is non-existent in modern healthcare. Would highly recommend!

    February I had a vasectomy performed by Dr. G, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I walked into his office, Dr. G was incredibly personable and comforting. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure and answer all of my questions, which really helped to ease any anxiety I had. The actual procedure was quick and efficient, and Dr. G’s professional and reassuring demeanor made a significant difference. I felt well taken care of throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Dr. G to anyone considering this procedure!

    16 years ago I had a vasectomy, and 8 years later (2015) I had it reversed because I wanted another son. In 2024 I decided I have plenty of kids and Dr. G performed the procedure. Dr. G did an excellent job start to finish and even with follow up calls. I didn’t feel any pain under Dr. G’s care. This really was a very fast painless procedure. The cost of the procedure is very fair considering everything he does for you. Great Job Doc!

    I drove 4 hours from Illinois to get a vasectomy done here, I do not regret it. Very professional doctor who was also able to distract me by talking to me for the full duration of the very short procedure. It was 5 days ago and I already feel almost completely fine. My insurance was not supported, but I feel that it was worth the total exact cost of $699 to get this done in a way that even someone like me who really hates needles can tolerate. Thank you doctor G. :)

    I recently had my surgery done and couldn't be happier with the experience! Dr. G is a phenomenal doctor and id recommend him to anyone. I was very tense but he helped me through the whole process. I was able to return to work 4 days later with no complications or pain. Thanks again Dr G

    10 stars! Dr. G is incredible. I'm about an hour past the procedure and all I'm experiencing right now is the expected minimal abdominal discomfort, which I would compare to minor indigestion. Dr. G and I talked during the whole procedure- amazing bedside manner- and my wife was by my side holding my hand, and I didn't feel any pain. First- no needle used for numbing! The jet applicator tool for numbing truly doesn't hurt. It's like a super weak rubber band snap on the skin for a millisecond- didn't hurt. And then I was numb right where I needed to be. For just a moment, I felt something that was almost leading to some minor pain towards the end of the procedure, and Dr. G was keenly aware, asked me, then paused, and got me some more numbing and then after it took effect in just a minute, he completed the procedure pain-free. Dr. G- thank you. You are doing an incredible service for men, with a benefit for women not having to do a more invasive tubal ligation, and that you made the whole process so easy and pleasant. THANK YOU!

    Dr G made this process very simple. Online scheduling. Pre procedure phone call from him and several reminder text messages. My procedure was a little more difficult because of my nerves but he stuck with it and accommodated me later in the same day.

    Jeff A.

    It’s almost 36 hours after the vasectomy and I am in no pain, have not been in any pain. No significant swelling, nothing. Dr G was great. He is very personable. His techniques and processes are cutting edge. There is nothing bad that I can say about my experience.

    Darryl B.

    I’ve been to numerous doctors from routine check ups, to broken bones, ACL surgery, and Dr. G is HANDS down the best doctor I have ever encountered. From the cost, to the reminders, the prompt email responses, the personal calls he gives you before and after the procedure, the explanation and his ability to make you feel like more than another “customer”, Dr G and everyone else involved made this procedure easy, SIMPLE, and make you understand that you are truly doing something that will be of benefit. Before the procedure I told my wife how much I was a fan of Dr. G, and after we left the quick and easy procedure, she was a fan, maybe even more than me. If you’re thinking about using these guys, don’t hesitate…the entire experience was easy, and also the procedure was essentially pain free. Thanks Dr. G!!!

    Derek W.

    Hi there!! I’m giving doctor G and his staff 5 stars because he went far and beyond my expectations before and after the procedure, he addressed all my concerns explaining in detail about the procedure making me feel so comfortable putting aside al my concerns. and even after the procedure he makes sure to follow up with you to answer any questions. So I highly recommend Dr. G for your vasectomy needs.

    Saul

    It was quick and easy. Dr. G took the time to answer all my questions. In fact, he spent more time answering my questions than the actual procedure took. If you have been thinking about it call Dr. G and get the facts you need to make an informed decision.

    Steve S.

    I have to say that from start to finish of the whole process Dr. G was professional, provided personal attention, and eased all the questions I had. He was very accommodating and informative and made me feel comfortable and in good hands. He and the actual facility blew me away. All things immaculate and proper. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I especially appreciated his demonstration of a couple of the tools, as I had an interest in them prior. Also his “bedside manner” put me to ease and relaxed me. Which is saying a lot given what was occurring. I highly recommend his practice for anyone in the market. The process was clear, well thought-out, and you can tell his heart is in his business with how everything is presented- from initial supplies shipment to after procedure care.

    Tressel L.

    Dr G. made me feel comfortable through out the procedure. He has a great bedside manor. He answered all my questions. The procedure was not painful at all and Dr. G makes sure that his patients have little to no discomfort at all. I would highly recommend Dr. G to anyone looking to get a vasectomy.

    Andrew M.

    Dr. G is incredibly good at what he does - not only regarding the procedure, but the way he talks with the customer before, during, and after the procedure to make sure they are comfortable. I was pretty nervous going in, but he managed to make the experience quick, easy, and painless. He's the kind of guy you'd want to get a beer with. Highly recommend giving Dr. G a call if you are remotely interested in getting a vasectomy. It took 10 minutes and I didn't feel a thing.

    Shane W.

    Dr. Guarin was incredibly professional, and answered all of my questions in depth before the procedure. Everything from scheduling all the way through to the post procedure follow up was simple. Pain was minimal, and I can't recommend the procedure enough. Get snipped.

    Timothy S.

    Scheduling was very easy and the website provided all the information that i needed to make my decision. The procedure was quick and Dr. Guarin is skilled and very personable. Along with being nearly pain free post procedure, this the best option for men who are considering a vasectomy.

    Shawn B.

    Wow I'm literally amazed! Dr Guarin is absolutely spot on with this procedure. 36 hours after this procedure and I'm still pain free. Dr Guarin's professionalism and expertise in truly astounding. I'm still questioning why anyone would still have a traditional vasectomy (needle and scalpel)!? Thanks again Dr Guarin!

    Adam H.

    I was very concerned about having the procedure. The doctor himself called me to discuss my questions. The surgery was simple and quick. I had no issues. Highly recommended.

    Juan A.

    Dr. G was kind, professional, and reassuring at every step. The arrangements, procedure, and recovery were easy and virtually painless. The cost is totally reasonable. Esgar is a vasectomist activist around the world, and I'm so pleased with my decision and the experience that I tell people about it every chance I get. I almost wish I could do it again! Almost.

    Simple Vasectomy for Men: Listing All the Sexual Reproductive Health Benefits

    In recent years, a simple vasectomy for men has become a popular way to decrease pregnancy risks. And there are many reasons why it has become so popular. Fully understanding these reasons can help you and your partner decide which option you want to take. That said, we find that this choice is almost always a better one than long-term female sterilization or monthly birth control procedures that can be quite expensive in comparison or somewhat inconsistent when compared to this treatment option.

    Fairly Inexpensive

    A simple vasectomy for men is a surprisingly inexpensive surgery that may cost as little as $2,000 to $5,000 per treatment. That may seem rather high to some people but contrast that with the costs of lifetime birth control costs. Women may spend $30-100 per month on their birth control, costing them potentially as much as $1,200 per year if they are not fully insured. A box of condoms can cost $10-20 or more – a sexually active man may go through one each month. That averages out to around $120 to $240 per year which, over a lifetime, easily exceeds the cost of a vasectomy. And if a man has insurance that will cover this process, the costs are even lower, providing even more financial benefits to those who want to prevent pregnancies.

    Even if a man ends up becoming inactive sexually or leaves his partner, this process is still cheaper than getting a woman back on birth control or buying boxes of condoms again. In this way, a man who doesn’t want children can get the best bang for their buck, keeping themselves safe while cutting back on their financial impact at the same time – that’s a big win-win for all parties involved here.

    Very Dependable

    Although you may think that condoms and female birth control combine to be 100 percent effective, that isn’t quite the case. Though both do heavily decrease your chances of causing a pregnancy, a small risk is still present with both. In some cases, it is very possible that both options could fail at the wrong time and trigger a pregnancy. Though rare, this situation has happened more than once.

    However, a simple vasectomy for men is the most effective way of stopping a pregnancy that your money can buy. Even though there are a few risks that this process could backfire, a lot of tests are done on your semen before you have unprotected sex. Once it is verified that you no longer ejaculate sperm, you can safely have sex and never anticipate getting your partner pregnant at the same time.

    This process is even more efficient than most female sterilization procedures and much safer. A vasectomy will take no more than 10-30 minutes and will cause very little pain and suffering on a man. By contrast, most female sterilization procedures are very painful and require a lot of recovery time. Just as importantly: a vasectomy is much easier to reverse should you and your partner change your minds.

    Eliminates Many Risks

    Another major benefit of a vasectomy is its relatively risk-free nature. Though some men may experience pain and discomfort for a few weeks after surgery, these side effects are minimal compared to other birth control methods. It is especially safer when compared to long-term female sterilization procedures, as these are often quite painful and may be a much higher risk of side effects.

    For example, birth control pills mess with a woman’s hormones and can cause side effects that may be very uncomfortable. Some women experience mood swings on birth control that can be very hard to control. Other women may gain weight or experience other side effects. These problems simply aren’t there with a simple vasectomy for men: the most side effects experienced is a little discomfort.

    Even better, this process is also much safer than shots because it only needs to be done once. Just as importantly, it protects a woman from the infections that may occur with IUD. Simply put, there’s no better way to stop pregnancy and protect a woman’s health at the same time. The simplicity of this procedure and its ease of recovery make it the best option for men who want to keep their partners safe.

    Lasts for a Long Time

    The best thing about vasectomy is that it will last much longer than other types of anti-pregnancy techniques. When done properly, a good vasectomy will last a man’s full life. There are no other treatments that provide this type of long-lasting benefit. Sure, female sterilization may provide a similar benefit for a couple but is much more expensive and more likely to be painful or even fail.

    Just as importantly, this type of procedure requires no updates or checkups after it is done. You need no follow-up process unless your semen test reveals you still ejaculate sperm. Instead, you can begin having sex fairly shortly after the process is over. And once your semen has been confirmed sperm-free, you can stop using all other methods of birth control and have fun and safe sex with your partner.

    And remember – a simple vasectomy for men is usually reversible with a few simple steps. Though this separate procedure may take a little bit of time to execute properly when compared to the first surgery, it usually takes a very short time and is effective after one treatment. So if you ever change your mind and want children, you can get this process reversed and start trying with your partner ASAP.
