Vasectomy Specialist in Asheville, NC
Many men choose vasectomy when they do not want to father children because it is a simple procedure and is less invasive than tubal ligations. They can be performed safely and quickly in our office under local anesthesia and are less risky, with a faster recovery than tubal ligation in women. Furthermore, they are less expensive and have success rates of over 99%.
Vasectomy involves cutting and sealing the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra, preventing sperm from being ejaculated during intercourse. It is a safe and effective form of contraception for men who do not want to have children. When performed by a vasectomy specialist such as Dr. Donaldson, it is a quick, effective, and affordable way of permanent birth control.
