Every year in the U.S. alone hundreds of thousands of women are persuaded to undergo tubal ligation surgery. The number varies depending upon the source but of those women who do this, many will decide they want to reverse the surgery. The premiere place to do so is the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.

Among the many other positives about the center, one of the best is the level of expertise brought on by the fact that tubal reversals are all that is done there. You won’t find in vitro fertilization. You won’t find vasectomy reversals being done or any other kind of surgery. What is done is only tubal ligation reversals. This means the staff is second to none in regards to experience with the procedure. Their time is not taken up with other types of procedures. No one can match their expertise.

The head surgeon of the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is Dr. Gary Berger. You will not find anyone else that has the background, education and training that he has within the tubal reversal field. As Dr. Berger performs the tubal reversal microsurgery four times a day, five days a week, no one can begin to match the number of reversed tubes he has repaired. He even trained under Dr. Winston. Check out his background on drbergertubal.com yourself and see no one can match it.

The surgical staff of technologists at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center are second to none. These are the people who make sure everything within the operating room is as it should be. You may not ever see their faces behind their surgical masks but they are the ones that make sure all equipment works as it should, that the operating room is meticulous and all is sterile for your surgery. Dr. Berger’s first assistant has been with him for 18 years. If she doesn’t know the drill by now, you sure won’t find it elsewhere. Among doctors who use staff at whatever hospital they work with, the surgical staff can change from time to time, especially since most other surgeons perform tubal reversal much less often than Dr. Berger.

Not only has the first assistant surgical technologist been there long term, so has the Director of Anesthesia. She is Dr. Caryn Hertz and has worked with Dr. Berger since 1995. Before that she was at the Duke University Medical Center which just goes to show what type of qualities she has. Sure beats wondering who you would pull going into some hospital for the surgery.

Looking at the nursing staff next will again show you the quality of the people who work at CHTRC. Some have been there long term as well. What really matters is how much they really care for the women who come to the center looking for a second chance at having a baby. Most likely it’s the nursing staff who will talk to you and answer your questions. You can even talk to them via the message board at forums.tubal-reversal.net.

Maybe what I should mention next is the message board that allows all the ladies who are thinking about having a tubal reversal talk to all the ones who have had the surgery. It forms the basis of a type of support group though it is not officially one. Not only that but you can get your questions answered there by the staff as well. Sometimes even Dr. Berger will drop in and answer questions. You will find the latest pregnancy announcements,too.

Another thing about CHTRC is that they will follow up with you for up to one year. They will make phone contact to talk to you and see how things are going. They do this at six months as well and a few other times more closely to the actual surgery as well. Using what they learn from you, and all the other women, they are able to provide statistics about the success rates to other women who are looking at the surgery as well. But forget about those statistics. How many surgeons do you know that has someone following up with their patients up to a year after surgery just to know what is going on? That’s just another mark of the care and professionalism you will encounter at the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.
