Georgia No Scalpel Vasectomy Overview: Thank you for your interest in our practice regarding a no scalpel vasectomy. Dr. McHugh is Georgia’s most experienced board certified urologist performing both vasectomies and microscopic vasectomy reversals.
Although a vasectomy can be performed most any day of the week, our most common day is Friday. Scheduling a vasectomy is usually not a problem, as Friday is reserved all most exclusively for performing vasectomies. Dr. McHugh performs between 20-30 vasectomy a month, several hundred a year, and has done thousands during his career.
We accept most insurances and your cost is based on the allowable for your particular plan. We will assist in you estimating that amount before the procedure.
Our all-inclusive price for self pay patients is $950.00. (Consultation and the procedure.) For self pay patients preferring conscious sedation in our on site accredited surgery center, the all inclusive fee is $1300.00. This is done with a board certified anesthesiologist.
For patients who may prefer some level of anesthesia we offer affordable anesthesia which is matched to the level of anxiety. The “No I.V.” nitrous is recommended for patients that have some anxiousness but don’t feel they have to be asleep.
Conscious sedation is recommended for patients with significant anxiety about having a vasectomy. The anesthesia option is available on Thursdays.
We have certified anesthesia, an accredited surgery center and can assure you a safe, pain free and anxiety free experience. The level of anxiety and the anesthesia chosen is determined by consultation with each patient.
Our goal is to offer anesthesia that targeted to you. Our fee for this service is billed directly to the patient and priced to encourage the patient who feels he needs it can have it at reasonable cost.

Casey Emmett2024-05-08Dr. McHugh and his team are superb. Easier than going to the dentist. I highly recommend him. With a procedure like this, you really want someone who knows what they’re doing and in that regard Dr. McHugh is the best.

Abby Holst2024-03-07Dr. McHugh and his staff truly go above and beyond for every patient that walks through the door. Dr. McHugh made sure to explain everything and answer all of our questions, which put my very nervous husband at ease. My husband was comfortable throughout the whole process, including the procedure. We have nothing but great things to say when it comes to Dr. McHugh and his staff. They do not make you feel like a patient…they make you feel like family.
Jeff Henke2024-02-19Dr. McHugh and his staff are all excellent! Best experience ever with them all. They were very patient and knowledgeable with all of my concerns and questions before the vasectomy. If you are thinking about using him don't think about it any longer, just book the appointment and be happy that you did. I give him and his staff an 11 out of 10 and have zero regrets in my decision to use his services!
Mitch Rider2024-02-17Dr. Mchugh and ALL of his staff were amazing. This experience could not have been any better. The pre/post op nurse was super friendly and helpful making sure all questions were answered and my wife and I were comfortable. The nurses who were with me during the procedure had great patient care and talked me through everything as it happened. The Anesthesia Nurse was also very reassuring and helpful. I was awake the whole time but felt nothing. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Sperm are produced in the testicles. Sperm ducts then carry the sperm to mix with fluids from the seminal vesicle and the prostate to form semen. The semen passes through the urethra and is ejaculated during sexual intercourse (Figure 1). A vasectomy prevents sperm from mixing with semen
A vasectomy only takes about 15-30 minutes. First, a local anesthetic will be applied to your scrotal area. You may also be given a mild sedative to help you relax. Then either one or two small incisions (cuts) are made in the scrotum (Figure 2). These incisions are so small that stitches may not be needed. If stitches are used, they will dissolve by themselves.
After making the incisions, the doctor will cut the sperm ducts, removing about one-half inch to one inch of each duct. This is done to reduce the possibility of the sperm ducts rejoining (Figure 3).
