    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.

    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.

    What to Do Before Getting SimpleVas Vasectomy Services

    A growing number of men are getting SimpleVas Vasectomy Services and other similar procedures, finding it is a great option for their reproductive needs. However, it is important to be fully prepared for these processes and fully understand their potential health impact. Doing so will ensure that you don’t run into any personal confusion or complications after treatment.

    Prepare Yourself Emotionally

    A typical SimpleVas Vasectomy Services is by no means a difficult or complex process. Most men will be in and out of the office in less than 45 minutes, with the procedure taking less than 10-30 minutes. However, this procedure is something that you need to be fully prepared to handle emotionally. You’ll be cutting yourself off from a big part of your life and may not fully expect the emotional backlash.

    Most of the time, men who get this procedure have no difficulties with this adjustment and feel happy with its results. By getting this process done, they can enjoy romance with their partner without worrying about pregnancy. Often, men who have already had children and who no longer want any find this procedure helps to give them peace of mind and comfort that they couldn’t get otherwise.

    That said, some men who have never had children may find themselves suddenly regretting the decision and wishing that they hadn’t done it. Thankfully, it can be reversed but requires a separate procedure. So make sure you sit down with yourself and make sure you are fully prepared for the lifestyle changes that this simple and effective operation will provide for you as a person.

    Prepare a Medication List

    The next thing you need to do is write down all of the medications that you take daily and make sure that the list is as complete as possible. If you don’t let your surgeons know about your medications and create a list in this way, they may give you something that may complicate your procedure. We particularly mean any applications to which you may be allergic.

    Most of the time, this list is used for reference and physicians will change their procedure based on how it may impact the process. Thankfully, most medications are quite harmless to SimpleVas Vasectomy Services and don’t cause any complications at all. However, it is best to be safe rather than sorry even in a process as simple as this, and doing so will help to keep you safe and healthy from various issues.

    Just as importantly, you need to make sure that you don’t take any Aspirin, Naproxen, or Ibuprofen within 48 hours of your procedure. These medications may help with many types of aches and pains but they can thin your blood and cause complications. Though this process is quite safe and minimally bloody, there’s no reason to take this risk if you can easily avoid it by grinning and bearing a headache.

    Wear a Jockstrap

    This step may sound comical but it is one of the most beneficial things you can do when getting SimpleVas Vasectomy Services as a man. If you wore a jockstrap in high school or college for sports, you may even have one lying around. Some men may even have one for their current sports competition. Most of the time, though, your surgeon will provide one if you have none.

    Why in the world should you wear a jockstrap to your procedure when they aren’t exactly comfortable? Typically, they help to keep your genitals properly positioned and comfortable during this procedure. Though it doesn’t take long to perform, having them snugly fit and in an easy-to-access area streamlines the surgery process and helps to cut back on any discomfort you may experience.

    In fact, you should extend this process to the week after your surgery, as well. Though you may not be excessively sore, letting your genitals hang too loose may put a strain on the surgery area. Using a jockstrap provides maximum support and ensures everything heals nicely. Don’t worry – you can take it off after a week but should wear it when you’re at work or doing any difficult exercises.

    Keep the Area Clean

    Have you gotten into the recent trend of manscaping that seems to have swept the internet in recent years? It seems that a growing number of men are trimming their public hair to create a more attractive and cleaner look. Even if you normally don’t enjoy this process, you should do it before SimpleVas Vasectomy Services, as this can help to streamline your procedure and make it easier to handle.

    Typically, you’re going to cut away all the hair around your genitals – or at least trim it to a very short level – with a pair of trimmers designed explicitly for this purpose. A pair of scissors may do if you are very, very careful but are perhaps a bit too dangerous to handle on your own. After you have trimmed the hair, make sure to apply a lotion to cut back on dry skin and redness after the trim.

    And make sure that you take a good shower just before your surgery or at least carefully wash this area with a rag and soap before you come to the doctor’s office. This process not only eliminates smells and potential stains that are embarrassing (and which might cause the doctor to gag) but also helps to prevent infections that may otherwise occur. Cleanliness is next to godliness in all surgeries.
