Frequently Asked Questions

For your convenience, below are answers to some Frequently Asked Questions. For more information, please call us toll free at 518-262-3341.

Can all vasectomies be reversed?

Almost all vasectomies can be reversed, however, if the repair was performed during the repair of an inguinal hernia, there may be much more difficulty reconnecting the ends of the vas deferens. In similar fashion, mesh-type hernia repairs may also make vasectomy reversal much more difficult.

How do I prevent kidney stones?

A good first step for you for stone prevention is to drink more liquids. Water is best and intake of greater than 2 quarts per day is best. If you tend to form stones, you should drink enough liquids throughout the day to produce at least 2 quarts of urine in every 24 hour period.
