Closest Tubal Reversal Center?
Have you wondered where the closest tubal reversal center is to you? Do you think North Carolina is too far away from you? Would you travel over 8,000 miles for the best tubal reversal center?
Carmen and Ariel traveled all the way from United States island territory of Guam to have her tubal reversal done in North Carolina! Carmen traveled over 8,803 miles to have her tubal ligation reversed at our reversal center.
Carmen an Ariel believed their best chances for tubal reversal were on the United States mainland.
They decided the best and closest tubal reversal center was our our center previously located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
In the Spring of 2013, they traveled to have tubal reversal at A Personal Choice, formerly known as Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.
Carmen agreed to be featured in a previous blog article and if you would like to read her full story it can be found here: All the way from Guam for tubal ligation reversal surgery
Carmen and Ariel enjoyed their trip to North Carolina so much they decided to relocate to the South Carolina for better jobs and economic opportunity than could be found on the small island of Guam in the South Pacific.
Do You Think We Are Too Far From You?
I am constantly contacted by potential patients asking us if we have an office near them or is there a tubal reversal specialist in South Dakota or West Virginia?
I do understand the desire to have surgery close at home. It is preferable to be near your home, children, and family when having a medical procedure and who likes to travel after surgery?
What many should realize is most doctors have never been exposed to tubal reversal surgery. Many doctors who perform tubal reversal do a small number of surgeries and may not have the expertise to reverse more difficult types of tubal ligations. With declining health care reimbursements many doctors are now offering tubal reversal surgery with very little exposure or training to the surgical techniques required for these delicate surgeries.
You may only have once chance to get it right…so consider going to a place with an experienced and dedicated staff.

Although we may not be the closest tubal reversal center to many patients, we exclusively specialize in tubal reversal and vasectomy reversal surgery.
We have a dedicated tubal reversal staff. We work in a facility dedicated to tubal reversal and vasectomy reversal and we are an AAHC Accredited Tubal Reversal Surgical Center. In many ways we are an international center for tubal ligation reversal surgery.
