I can’t say enough great things about this place! 100% make sure you choose the nitrous oxide to help. Truly painless and the nitrous oxide put me at a level of peace I had never felt before.
Thanks for everything!

If you’re looking for a vasectomy, look no further. There is a reason for all the five star reviews. Dr. McHugh and his team were as good as you could ask for. Very professional and took excellent care of me. 10/10 experience for something that has the potential to be very stressful.

Highly recommend Dr. McHugh. He was very thorough on explaining the procedure. His team was also very transparent on my options of paying for the procedure and what they would be.

After 5 years of having a vasectomy. My husband and I wanted to give our daughter a sibling. We drove 2 hours to have Dr. McHugh and his team give us a chance at growing our family again. They were informative and the overall surgery was handled smoothly leaving us with high hopes. 7 months later and we were expecting our second daughter. We cannot thank the practice enough and highly recommend them.

Dr was awesome, staff was all amazingly positive and easy going which made the entire experience a breeze. Even had Slipknot jamming in the room for me during the procedure which was so quick. 10/10 I would recommend anybody to them for their vasectomy needs.
