Quick, Convenient Appointments Austin Vasectomies
Make an appointment that works for your schedule. Fridays are the most popular—you’ll be recovered and back at work on Monday. Bookings are typically available within 1-3 weeks. We can also perform the procedure on the same day as your consultation.
Have a Gas: No Pain, No Stress, No Added Cost
Along with spray-on topical anesthetic, we offer an optional fast acting inhalable solution. The gas has a calming effect, so the procedure passes by without concern. This is available to all vasectomy patients at no additional cost upon request.
Up-Front Pricing, No-Interest Payments Available*
We pride ourselves on transparency and clear expectations. You don’t want surprise expenses any more than you want surprise babies. We’ll check with your insurance and be able to tell you exactly how much you can expect to pay before you even book. Plus, qualifying patients can apply for a 6-month, no-interest payment plan via CareCredit.
Worth the Trip
Patients travel hundreds of miles (or more) to see Dr. Shaw in Austin for a vasectomy. You wouldn’t put your most precious possessions in the hands of just anyone, and that’s never been more true than when considering your vasectomy doctor.
Vasectomies Aren’t Just for Him
There is no “we” in vasectomy, but there should be. Wives love vasectomies almost as much as their husbands. As a far less invasive alternative to tubal ligation, they offer peace of mind for the whole couple. Just listen to this mom who wrote about her Austin vasectomy experience at Austin Urology Institute.
You wouldn’t get a vasectomy if you were the type who likes surprises. So here is the rundown on how we perform vasectomies in our Austin urology clinic.
About 500,000 vasectomies are performed in the US annually, and the numbers are growing. Many men are considering vasectomies as an alternative to the invasive procedure their wives might otherwise undergo, or take lifelong birth control when no longer needed. Plus, sexual function is unchanged after a vasectomy.
Most people have a minimal out-of-pocket or copay, as the vasectomy is typically a procedure that is covered by insurance. For those who pay cash, our rates are the lowest available.
The vast majority of vasectomies are performed in the office. The procedure takes approximately 20 minutes. Fridays are most popular for minimizing time off from work. Most of our patients opt to take a full or half day off on Friday, recover over the weekend, and return to work on Monday.
From Austin urologist and vasectomy specialist Dr. Koushik Shaw
You’re not leaving things to chance, and neither are we. We are proud to offer SpermCheck, a convenient at-home test to determine the success of your vasectomy. This simple, accurate test is done at 90 days after the procedure, and then again the following week, in the privacy of your home, without the need to bring a sample to the lab or office. We will schedule a Telemed follow-up visit with you to ensure both tests are negative.
Virtual Visits Available
We offer both in-clinic and remote telemedicine consultations in Texas.
