Similar to others, received a referral to this clinic and they've informed me they're no longer accepting MSP. Two-tiered healthcare is antithetical to a physically and socially healthy society. Physicians who decide to opt out and push us toward a private pay model should be ashamed and shunned.
My procedure was relatively pain-free with a short recovery time and zero complications.

Great experience for what it is! No pain, relaxing environment with some nice background music. Dr. Follows was easy to talk to and was there when I needed to call post vasectomy.

Maybe even compression shorts the week after if you go back to a physical job. Good luck!!!
