December 2023

I don't think I ever wrote to update Mr. Swinn after my reversal operation. However now I have just realised this, I can report that on literally our first 'try', 2.5 weeks after the operation, my wife conceived! We were very surprised as based on the advice at the time of the operation we thought it would take months for things to heal and work properly.
 
We had a healthy baby boy who has now just turned one year old 😁

Last sunday she gave birth to our healthy beautiful  daughter.  We would  like to take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your help and expertise in making this happen.

I am contacting you in regards to a vasectomy reversal procedure that you performed on me in May 2022.  With no other medical intervention, my wife is now 9 weeks pregnant! 
 
On behalf of my wife and I, Thank you! Your care and attention before, during, and after the procedure has led to this amazing outcome.  I know the prognosis post surgery wasn't that great for me, but things seemed to have worked out.

I have been meaning to email for a little while. I visited for a reversal procedure in October 2022, 7.5 years post vasectomy. 

I am delighted to confirm that my wife was confirmed as pregnant in March with a baby boy now due in November.

I would like to place on record, my gratitude to all involved. From the moment of enquiry right the way through the procedure, it was fantastic. 

Thank you for allowing us what we so desperately craved together.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________May 2023

Last year around June/July I booked in to have a vasectomy reversal, I decided that Mr Swinn was the man I wanted to carry out this procedure. 

I was told that it went well and that if my sperm count was good then It would be successful between 12-18 months after surgery. 

A few weeks ago my partner was very late and was starting to feel ill at the slightest smells and we decided to take a pregnancy test. 8 months after the surgery we were shocked and very happy to see that we are expecting our beautiful baby which is due in December. 

I’m absolutely over the moon that I have been given this chance to become a father again and feel really emotional that it was a success. 

I never got round to doing the sample as I was in the mind frame of what will be will be and I was scared to hear bad news. I am so very grateful to Mr Swinn for what he has done for both me and my partner. She does not have children so this is the best news and for her to finally be able to have a chance at being a mother has completely changed my life. Thank you so much, you don’t know how much this has changed our lives for the better. 

My partner is almost 12 weeks pregnant and we had a welfare scan last week where we were told the heart beat was perfect and the size of the baby is also where it should be. 

Once again from the bottom of my heart thank you Mr Swinn. 

I will be sure to write a review on the website over the next few weeks but I just wanted to reach out and share this news with the man who made it a possibility.

 I am emailing with some wonderful news. On 30th September, my husband and I welcomed our little girl  to the world. 
 
My husband had his reversal at Gatwick Spire in December 2020. 
 
It took a whole year and was about to start fertility testing, when I fell pregnant naturally in January 2022. 
 
Thank-you so much.

We are delighted to report that ... has fallen pregnant in only the second cycle after the operation :)
 
While its still very early days for this pregnancy (about 5 weeks) it's an amazing success for the procedure I had and I wanted to report this to Mr Swinn and thank him so much for the hope this has brought to us. Will keep you up to date and however things turn out we are truly grateful.
 
I have to confess that I totally failed to arrange the test that is due now in all the emotion of the last few weeks.
 
I do still intend to do it, and I will get it sorted after Easter.

February 2022 

Please convey our good news to Mr Swinn.

He reversed my vasectomy in 2019.

This was successful and, whilst we needed IVF, this was accomplished with ejaculated rather than surgically retrieved sperm – thus Mr Swinn’s operation was successful.

Our first pregnancy sadly miscarried, but we are ecstatic that a second one carried to term and a baby girl was born on 7/2/22.

We cannot thank you and your team enough.

February 2022

I had a reversal vasectomy about 10 years ago in your spire hospital with Mr Swinn. Mr Swinn said it was a success but after testing for over two years they still showed low sperm or none. I drank alot and smoked but in the last 2 years I am in a new relationship and i have turned vegan stopped smoking and drinking and go the gym regularly. I just found out my new partner is pregnant, I am  over the moon and obviously its a shock to both of us as i thought i was infertile. If you can pass this great news to Mr Swinn and if you want to ask anymore questions please don't hesitate to contact me.

February 2021

Six months today, Mr Swinn turned my life back round for me, and I can’t begin to express how grateful I am to him, and everyone involved in my care. 
 
It seems incredible now to imagine the state I was in, having endured pain continuously since end July 2019 after the vasectomy. My whole being was governed by pain, I struggled with every day routine, work was severely impacted, and my mood swings awful, then there was the terrible impact this was having on my wife. I was at the lowest point possible, I didn’t see a way out of this having had follow up procedures with little relief. My prospects were grim. 
 
That first call with you and then Mr Swinn phoned straight back that same afternoon, with encouraging prospects and being able to help me was immense, and gave me hope.
 
On the 1st August, Mr Swinn worked magic on me, putting me firmly on the road to recovery. 
 
My recovery has been steady, it took two to three months before I felt I was well on the mend, with month four being the real marker. Now at six months on, I am doing very well indeed. I have occasional discomfort if I over exert myself, biking is still no go, but I accept that happily knowing I’m improving all the time.
 
Please pass on our thanks to Mr Swinn, he has saved us, and I’m so grateful.

We are pleased to inform you that .... was born on the 19/01/2020 at 16.28 weighing 5lb 13 oz. As you will know the time that had passed since my vasectomy in the last 90's did reduce our chances and to be honest we thought that it wasn't going to happen after a couple of years since the reversal, despite monitoring ovulation. Nevertheless, we found that we were pregnant in April 2019!

Just wanted to let you know and thank you for your skill in helping us achieve our dreams.

Kind Regards and thank you.

January 2020. 

My partner and I came to you for a vasectomy reversal (I think) in 2013. After having his vasectomy nearly 10 years prior when in a previous relationship...we decided that we would would like to try to children in the future. The NHS wouldn’t help us with a reversal so with the support of my family, we found you; and based on your experience and success rate, you were our obvious choice. 

After a consultation, ... had the operation in the March and 3 months later had a positive result (sperm present), although mobility was low. We were told that this could increase in time however. We prayed this was the case. 

We decided that we didn’t want to try for children straight away and continued to save to purchase our first property. After moving into our home in October 2015, we began trying. To our delight and utter amazement, we found out we were expecting our first baby just a month later. After a 4 day labour, our beautiful daughter was born in August, happy and healthy. 

Move forward 2 years...we started trying for our second. Again...1 month later...another positive pregnancy test. Our baby boy was born June 2019. Another happy, healthy baby. On both occasions, we used ovulation kits, which clearly identified the best time to try and with both babies...we did it first time. 

We never expected to fall to quickly. We always talked about it likely taking time to fall pregnant, so to fall pregnant with both our babies in the first months of trying was beyond a miracle to us. 

I wanted to send you this email to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. I honestly cannot thank you enough for the absolute joy you have given us. All parents are grateful for their babies, but to us, they are just that little bit more special. Our little gifts. And for us, these gifts are because of you. 

Dr Swinn...thank you for our miracles. We have the family we always dreamed of because of you.

September 2019

By way of brief reminder, I was a patient of Mr Swinn last April. At that point it had been 16 years since my vasectomy, and I was 47 years of age. You called a few weeks later to let me know the results and they were far better than average and above the WHO averages. 
 
Mr Swinn was very succinct with his synopsis and with my partner being 37 we knew the odds were not the best despite my results.  I am pleased to tell you that at this point in time my partner is 5 months pregnant and carrying a beautiful baby boy. He’s due to be here at the end of jan 2020. 
 
Thank you so much. I wanted to be as sure as we could he before writing.

My husband ... has a reversal done by you back in March 2015. His first results where quite poor but his second that we had done where extremely good and you could only fix one side.  Although we had been trying for some time nothing was happening so I went to a clinic to get myself tested to make sure everything was normal . The consultant there looked at ... sperm results and said she had never seen such good results from a versctomy reversal so when .... told her you could only fox one side she was even more amazed. 
 
However, it still took us time to conceive and I had a miscarriage this time last year but now we have a beautiful baby girl who was born on the 15th of July weighing a healthy 8lb 15oz. So thank you so much because with out your amazing work we wouldn’t have been blessed with our beautiful baby.

You may remember that I had my vasectomy reversal the 2nd of May and I have the great pleasure of informing you that my wife is already 5 weeks pregnant. We did not follow strictly the recommended guideline for abstinence post surgery and we had sex only 10 days after the reversal and she got pregnant as a result. We are extremely happy and can not thank you enough for your talent and surgical skills.  Otherwise I am recovering well, barely had any significant pain or bruising and the scar is very well healed. 

I look forward to seeing you in a couple of months for the follow up appointment.

I am dropping you a quick email to let you know that following my procedure with you on 27th April 2016 my partner has fallen pregnant. She took a test on Friday and the test has indicated that she is 1-2 weeks pregnant. Based on the date of her last cycle the doctor has worked out that she is 3-4 weeks.

Obviously I wanted you to know so that you can update your records and so that your stats can be updated. Secondly it was to thank you so much for what has turned out to be a very successful procedure. We never dreamt of falling pregnant within 6 weeks of the procedure.

As discussed with Lesley I will still be attending an appointment after the 3 months to get my sperm count assessed.

Thank you again on behalf of both myself and my partner.

It seems such a long time ago now but you kindly opened your clinic during the May bank holiday weekend back in 2010 and reversed my vasectomy. The operation was performed at the Gatwick Spire clinic.
 
Well it has been a long road since, which included one failed pregnancy, but I am happy to report that my wife delivered our son  (9 pounds) last Wednesday at the Al Ahli Hospital, Doha, Qatar. Mother and baby are doing well.

April 2016
 
I am writing following my vasectomy reversal operation carried out on 16th December, 2015.
The operation went smoothly and I didn't have much pain after the operation at all.
 
I recently had a sperm test and received a phone call on the 19th of April 2016 to inform myself and my partner that the operation had been successful and that I had a sperm count of 14 million/ml and 24% active swimming sperm which I was really relieved to hear.
 
On Sunday 24th of April my partner did a pregnancy test and we have found out that she is approximately 2 weeks pregnant!  Words cannot express just how happy we both are!  Obviously we are in the very early stages of pregnancy so we are not sharing our news far and wide until further down the line but we are staying positive and will keep you updated of further news.
 
I would like to personally thank Mr Swinn for carrying out a successful operation and to his secretary for always being available and efficient in keeping me informed.  I can honestly say that I was not very optimistic about the chances of success as I am very much a realist but we are both amazed at the success and speed of resulting pregnancy.
This is simply the best news I have ever had and both myself and my partner are hoping to soon be parents in approximately mid January 2017!
 
Thank you so much....you have brought us the best gift we could ever have dreamt of....

We are both so excited  to tell you that after having you carrying out  a vasectomy reversal (post vasectomy 6.5 years)  on the 22nd August 2015 my wife is 8 weeks pregnant. (estimated conceived on the  22nd Jan 2016) . Its an absolute miracle really that  so soon after the procedure and healing period you gave us this chance ! It is  still early days but a recent  early scan showed a standard  foetus development  with heart beat & good circulation. 
The whole process  organised by yourselves and delivered through the hospital staff was exceptional . 
We shall keep you posted on the pregnancy term   but with regards to  your part in this it  was a complete success and for that we are truly grateful.

We thought you might like an update from ... operation in August last year. The 3 month analysis showed occasional non-progressive and immotile sperm, which was in our case better than a zero! The six month analysis we cancelled because I am currently 8 weeks pregnant! Although it is very early stages we thought you would like to know. Although we don't have official numbers ... numbers have been doubling every fours weeks, so the operation was not only a technical success but a pregnancy success, and we cannot thank you enough for your skill involved, we certainly weren't expecting results like this, so it is testament to you.
 
Thank you again for giving us another chance to expand our family, we will be forever grateful.

We just wanted to write to you to say a very big Thank you!  My partner  ....came on the 7th October 2015 to your hospital for a vasectomy reversal! We felt very welcomed and for what it was we had a pleasant experience. The level of care was amazing but most importantly so were your surgical skills! We received a very exciting phone call and letter from yourself 3 months later ( after giving a sample) informing us that the reversal had been a success!! 
We are now delighted to inform you that only 4 months after the operation we are 6 weeks pregnant!!!!! :-) 
We can't honestly thank you enough for everything and for giving us something we only dreamed of!!   You are fantastic and quite literally a miracle worker!

We will keep you posted, all being well and let you know when our little one arrives! 
Thank you again!

My partner and I wanted to pass on our huge thanks after the birth of our beautiful son on 14/12/15, weighing in at 8lb 10 oz. He's a very healthy baby growing very rapidly.  I had the Vasectomy Reversal on 30/07/14, which was 4 years post Vasectomy.  We were so pleased with the support and care offered by Dr Swinn and his team. We feel blessed that we had the opportunity to start a new family together, a little later in life. We also have 4 very happy brothers and sisters who all love and adore their new sibling.
 
Thank you from us all.

Apologise I have not got around to emailing you and your team sooner.
 
You carried out a reversal on my partner  on the 1st August 2012, I remember that you said afterwards that it was a complicated reversal due to how the original vasectomy had been carried out. ... was approx 11 years post vasectomy.
 
In August 2014 we conceived and our gorgeous baby boy was born 17th April 2015. He is so so precious to us and to all of our family and we cant thank you enough for all that you and your team did for us.
 
Couple of pics for you of when he was born and him now!
 
Best Wishes to you and all of your team and thank you again.

We wanted to write to tell you our successful reversal news.

Our daughter turned 1 in November 2015, following my reversal in Feb 2014, yes she was conceived within the first month of my reversal, we actually worked out, it was exactly 2 weeks after my op. We were obviously delighted and a little bit in shock of how quickly it happened, but is a delight to us and her older siblings.

My original vasectomy was just under 3 years prior to my reversal.

We can't thank you enough.

So thank you very much.  His sperm count at 6 months was 9 million but as you said it only takes 1 !!!  Thank you for your help.

We are delighted to report that our much-loved daughter was born at the Royal Sussex Hospital at 00.47 on the 28th November 2015, one year and two days after my vasectomy reversal at Gatwick Spire. .... weighed in at a healthy 8lbs 4oz and has continued to thrive over the last 12 days, passing all relevant tests along the way.
 
To say that we are overjoyed would be an understatement to say the least.
 
Thank you and your staff so much for this life-changing opportunity which we could never have imagined possible, we would certainly recommend your services to anyone we meet.

I was going through some correspondence this morning and found an old letter I received from you back in 2009. It then dawned on me that I had never e-mailed you to thank you so much for our beautiful son who was born nearly three years ago now! (it’s all been a blur)

When I came to you in 2009 I had a vasectomy 8 years earlier, you informed me that there was a 60% chance of the operation working, well work it did. Our son ...  was born on the 25/08/2012.

Sorry I’m so late informing you, we can never thank you enough for your brilliant work.

Kind regards

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be writing this email when I first met you last October…...

Following my Vasectomy reversal at the end of November 2014, I got the results of my sperm test/count from you last month (March 2015) which were amazingly very encouraging; especially considering my age (55), the length of time since my vasectomy (20+ years) and the circumstances under which the original vasectomy was performed (Army field hospital). 

My partner has been using the contraception pill for many years and has just hit the age of 40, and came off it only at the time of the procedure - something else which counted against us having any chance of conceiving.

I/we are really delighted and stunned to inform you that my partner has now fallen pregnant and is considered to be by those in the know, at about the 8 week stage.

We both realise there is a long way with many potential pitfalls to go before being the proud parents we want to be but we thought that you ought to be the first to know (secret to everyone else until at least the 12 week stage). As you advised, I am planning to freeze a sperm sample for future use if necessary.

We cannot thank you enough for your efforts in what was a pain-free, comfortable and astonishing procedure. My treatment from start to finish was first class and all members of staff at the Gatwick Park Hospital should be proud of their attitudes and achievements.

Please feel free to contact me at your convenience should you require any further information or updates.

Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts and we wish you well for the future.

I just wanted to follow up after my reversal operation on the 1st October.  My wife has had two positive pregnancy tests.

Obviously it is still very early days however I just wanted to thank you as it's really a rather brilliant piece of news after a few months of nothing but bad news.  We were not expecting anything to really happen until the new year (after the 3 months) however it would appear things are working.

Thank you for seeing me so quickly after our initial consultation and do pass on my thanks to all the staff there as they were all brilliant.

I'm sure you will be delighted to hear that our absolutely miraculous little daughter has arrived! Baby ... took us a little by surprise and arrived a little early at just over 36 weeks on the 10th March 2014 weighing in at 5lb 15oz. All was very well up until delivery when she decided she would put us through the agony of not responding for a very long six minutes whilst she was resuscitated but eventually decided to give in and utter her first little cry. She has gone from strength to strength and is now 16 days old and a true delight.
 
Both .... and I can't thank you enough for enabling us to have our wonderful little girl. She is our little miracle baby and if it wasn't for your incredible expertise and skill she wouldn't be here.
 
Again, many many thanks and warmest wishes to you.

I was going to come in for a semen analysis 3 months after you operated on me but almost to that date ...  advised me she was pregnant! I was a little disappointed as I had hoped and expected much more "practise" at the conception than just a couple of efforts! Congratulations to you and of course my thanks for getting this old torso to work again. Out son was born two weeks late on 6 March but he is a bonny little chap keeping both mum and dad awake most of the night! We have registered him .... but everybody calls him .... and that seems to have stuck.

It does mean your success graph lifts a notch as at 56 and 15 years since the vasectomy I was an outside bet for success. Thank you so very much and my kindest regards.

I’m writing to you because you have performed a vasectomy reversal to my fiancee SH in July 2012 and asked us to let you know when / if I got pregnant. I am very pleased to say that after 15 months trying naturally I got pregnant, even when my ovarian reserve is much lower than my 39 years of age (as I’ve been told by fertility doctors).

I am now almost 9 weeks pregnant and we have already heard the heartbeat, it all seems to be going very well and I can’t thank you enough for your help. We couldn’t be happier!

Thanks again for the fantastic job you’ve done, this baby means so much to us!

Kind regards,
