Dear Visitor,
Thank you for visiting the Vasectomy Reversal Center of Chicago and for your interest in our practice. The following information will answer most of the commonly asked questions related to vasectomy reversal.

About Us

Our center at 600 Enterprise Drive, Suite 218, Oak Brook IL 60523, is conveniently located about 15 minutes from O'Hare and about 20 minutes from downtown Chicago. Dr. Agha, who will perform your surgery, is a Board-Certified Urologist and has been performing these procedures since 1996. We perform 1-2 reversals per week on average.

The Surgery

The surgery is performed in our office operating room under local anesthesia. We use a high-end Leica operating microscope to perform this microsurgery

The surgery takes approximately 3 hours. After the surgery, you may ride in a car with someone. You may want to take a week off from work. You are advised against strenuous and sexual activity for about 3 weeks after surgery. Dr. Agha will prescribe antibiotics and pain pills for the post-operative period. Also, you will be given an order for semen analysis to be performed at your local hospital or fertility clinic. The results of the semen test can be discussed on the phone or zoom.

Chances of Success

If sperm are detected during the surgery, our success rate is more than 99%. The chances that sperm are found during surgery vary with time since vasectomy (90% between 1-3 years, 80-85% between 4-7 years, and 70-75% between 8-14 years). Pregnancy rates are lower than these numbers as a host of male and female factors come into play even when sperms are present in the semen after the reversal.

How to Proceed

Once you have decided to have a reversal, the following will ensue.
Consultation: Dr. Agha will offer a phone or Zoom consultation on request for any unanswered questions. Those who wish to have an office consultation are also welcome.
Prior to consultation, you will receive a link to fill in the registration form.
A $250.00 fee is charged for consultation. This fee is applied to the total cost of the procedure if the reversal surgery is scheduled and performed with us within 6 months of consultation. This fee is not refundable after the service has been provided.
Scheduling the Procedure: After the consultation, at your convenience, you can call or email us to schedule your procedure. Our reversal coordinator will facilitate the process.

Cost of Reversal

The all-inclusive cost for the procedure is $7,400.00. A deposit of $500.00 is required at the time of scheduling and the balance is due 2 weeks before the surgery in the form of a Certified check payable to Arif Agha, MD. A 3% convenience fee is applicable for all credit card transactions.

Refunds

If after scheduling the procedure, you change your mind, the full fee is refundable until 2 weeks before the scheduled date. If you cancel less than 2 weeks before the scheduled date, the deposit of $500 becomes non-refundable. If you cancel less than 48 hours before surgery, the full fee is non-refundable.

We understand that some questions may not have been answered here. If so, please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-800-92-VASMD and our reversal coordinator will be glad to assist you.

After having 2 healthy boys

After having 2 healthy boys

After having 2 healthy boys with my wife, we decided I would have a vasectomy in April of 2007. But at some point around the vasectomy, my wife had a tubal miscarriage. Fast forward to 2009, We bought a house in November and had placed the first time home buyers credit in our savings account for an emergency. She carried this feeling that our family was incomplete all by herself for 3 years. In October 2010, my wife finally opened up to me about what happened. So we began discussing options of adoption, foster care and reversal surgery. When we found VRCC, my wife felt like an image of a child and the scripture verse that was on their home screen was a comforting “sign” for her. when we saw how much they charged, it was the exact amount we had in our savings account. So we began the process of getting a reversal. I was going to a conference/training retreat in the Chicago area in November, but the website said surgeries were typically scheduled 30 days out. We wanted to keep it a secret from our families in case the reversal was not successful. I called VRCC and asked about the weekend i would be in Chicago. they said that it would work!!!! My wife and I felt like God was really placing things in order for us to have the reversal done. the final straw for us was when I googled the hospital to see when I would have to leave my conference. We discovered that the hospital was only 15-20 minutes away from where we were and I was able to catch a train up to chicago and my wife drove up a couple days later (to be there in time for the surgery). We arrived at the facilities and everyone was very kind and respectful. The Doctor was very informative and gave me updates as the surgery went along. Fast forward again to November 17, 2011 and our 3rd son was born 370 days after I had our reversal. Then on July 17, 2013, our daughter was born. Both are very healthy and we can’t imagine our house without them in it. Periodically, they will be gone with grandparents and the older 2 will be home with us. We normally pause and think how weird it would be without the youngest 2 in our home. My wife has regained the sparkle in her eye and our house has never been noisier. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
