New patients may want to learn about the relationship between A Personal Choice and Chapel Hill Surgical Center. They are interrelated health care organizations exclusively for the benefit of patients undergoing tubal reversal surgery.
A Personal Choice
A Personal Choice is the name of my private practice. It is located on the second floor of a 2 story building at 109 Conner Drive in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Prior to 1997, A Personal Choice was known as Chapel Hill Fertility Center. During earlier years, complete diagnostic and treatment services were provided for all causes of infertility. Because it has always been my primary interest and special skill, I decided to limit my practice to tubal reparative surgery. I am the the only reproductive surgeon who performs tubal reversal surgery exclusively.
Chapel Hill Surgical Center
Chapel Hill Surgical Center is a licensed ambulatory surgical facility that occupies the first floor of 109 Conner Drive in Chapel Hill. This is where the tubal reversal procedures are performed. The facility has 3 operating rooms, a two-stage recovery room, and is staffed by a team of anesthesiologists, a nurse anesthetist, operating room nurses, recovery room nurses, surgical technologists, and an administrative staff. In the past, it was operated as a general ambulatory surgical center that included other doctors from many other surgical specialties. The facility was reorganized to provide tubal reconstructive surgery alone to allow all of the professional staff to concentrate on tubal reversal patients. This has led to the best medical care for women having a tubal reversal procedure.
A Unique Medical Organization
As the Medical Director of both facilities, I am assisted by a dedicated and highly trained staff of over 20 people who devote all of their efforts to caring for 4 couples a day having tubal reversal surgery. The staff to patient ratio (5:1) is higher than found in any other surgical center or hospital. This permits the most attentive and personalized medical care possible. There is no other medical organization like this anywhere else. Most patients learn about us from the A Personal Choice website, while others are referred by their doctors or previous patients. Couples come here from all 50 states in the US and from every continent around the world.
Our Mission
We take pride in being the premier medical facility for tubal ligation reversal. Our mission for 2008 is to restore hope, fertility, and the opportunity to have children for 800 more couples, as we have done each year in the past.
