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.

Both ....and myself would like to thank you so much for your help. We could not have done this without your wonderful surgical skills.

My husband and I came to you in November 2014 to discuss a vasectomy reversal. .. had had the vasectomy done 11 years prior and after 2 failed rounds of IVF, ... came in for the procedure, which you carried in February 2015.

We were delighted to find out that I fell pregnant in July 2015, I was pregnant before ... results came back to see if the operation had worked!

We welcomed our little girl, into the world on the 2nd March 2016 weighing just 5lb 2.5 oz's, after a slightly rocky start for both ... & I, all is now well and ... is now 12 weeks old and growing rapidly.

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....

March 2016

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.

6.5 years post vasectomy, Surrey

March 2016

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!

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.

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.

April 2015

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.

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,

You will be about as delighted as me to learn that I appear to belong to the 25%ile of men of my age for whom the reversal (you performed) was successful!!! ... (in Kampala) took a pregnancy test followed by a clinic visit only 10 days after conception, and is now not enjoying morning sickness very much!!!

I will go with her for a scan in April/May to check all’s well and that the birth date should indeed be about 18th September.

Many thanks indeed

Please would you pass on mine and ... heart felt joy to Mr Swinn after ... pregnancy was confirmed last Friday.

We realise it's still early days, but at 6 weeks 3 days as of Friday 03 Jan we're over the moon.

My reversal, after 22 years, was in October 2012 and we've been trying since then. 14 months later, married in September 2013 and we're so happy. Everything is crossed that .. goes full term.

Words cannot describe the gratitude we both share.

With kind regards.

Please can you pass on some amazing news, I am delighted to inform Mr Swinn that we are 18 weeks pregnant and after today's scan found out it is a girl. We are due on 25th May 2014.

Mr Swinn has preformed a miracle, after 15 years post vasectomy and only having the reversal in Jan 2013, we fell pregnant very quickly.

We would like to thank the whole team for all their great work and dedication.

Both ... and I are delighted to inform you that she is 21 weeks pregnant now and we have had a scan today revealing that we are expecting what is undoubtedly going to be a beautiful baby girl. She is due on the 2nd April 2014.

Clearly the wonderfully intricate and accurate procedure you performed was highly successful as ... fell pregnant really quickly following the vasectomy reversal in April this year.

We can't thank you enough for your kindness and your continued high success rate enabling us to start a family together. We couldn't be happier and this is as a direct result of your incredible skill.

If you don't mind I will contact you again to inform you of the safe arrival of our little one.

We are so happy and we thank you so much for making this work for us.

.... has had her first dating scan and we can now confirm she is 14 weeks pregnant. Considering the vasectomy reversal was only carried out on the 16th of January 2013 this means that she conceived on or around the 3rd March which indicates that the reversal worked within 6 weeks from the operation being carried out. Amazing!

Considering that I had a vasectomy 16 years ago and being 43 years of age we new the odds were stacked against us so what you have done is nothing short of a miracle.

We are so grateful for all your help and would encourage anyone considering a vasectomy reversal to contact you.
The care and attention received by you and your team was second to none even down to the smallest detail. Please ensure you also thank Lesley for her thorough, informative and caring attitude towards all our questions and concerns.

We will keep you informed of the progress of.... pregnancy.

16 years post vasectomy, Yorkshire

May 2013

I was almost 9 years post-vasectomy. We had viewed the testimonials for Mr Swinn, and others, with a degree of scepticism of the success rates for vasectomy reversal but after thorough research of the subject, including a telephone conversation with Mr Swinn, elected to proceed with Mr Swinn.

The location being only a five minute bus ride from Gatwick was extremely convenient for travelling from abroad. The facilities in the Spire were first class and the medical and nursing care was excellent. On the morning of the procedure we were met by Mr Swinn and the anesthesiologist for a further consultation. The operation was conducted before lunch and the anesthesiologist checked in again later in the evening. Discharge was the following morning and besides the usual grogginess following general anesthetic and some discomfort in the genital area there were no major problems.
For those travelling, and especially flying, I would recommend staying local until the day AFTER discharge.

The testicles were packed in a supportive jock-strap which, in the following week, proved essential. There was a general throbbing in the genital area but nothing that paracetemol wouldn't help with. The only other issue was that when the strapping was removed the testicles and tubes didn't seem to be sitting as they used to do and this felt unusual but after a few walks things found their own resting place and all was fine thereafter.

16 months after Mr Swinn and his team conducted the procedure our miracle baby girl arrived healthy and safe.

In April last year you carried out a very successful reversal procedure on me (you may recall my sperm count test gave a result of 198.5 million/ml!). Toward the end of the year we had it confirmed that a natural pregnancy was underway and I am delighted to report the fantastic new that we are now very proud parents of identical twin boys.

So I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for your amazing work you carried out which has resulted in our wonderful new little family. I honestly wasn't that hopeful this would be possible a few years ago when myself and ... first started looking at the possibility of starting a family together, so to say we are overjoyed is an understatement.

Best wishes to you and all your staff and thank you once again.

On the 15th February this year, I was booked in for a vasectomy reversal re-do. I am delighted to inform you that my wife is now 12 weeks pregnant. We went to the Royal Hampshire County Hospital today for her first scan and everything appears OK.

I couldn't believe it 7 weeks ago when we did the test, I just sat staring at the result, thinking, its worked! I am so grateful for what you have done and for all your support I received at the hospital. I rested as instructed and followed the after care strictly and I'm sure this has made all the difference as well.

Once again, many thanks. I am so glad my wife found you and your procedure on the internet!

Thank you for your letter dated 9th February confirming my recent successful vasectomy reversal.

I am delighted to tell you that .... and I have just done three successful pregnancy tests and cannot believe we have been blessed to fall pregnant so quickly. You may recall we have undergone three unsuccessful IVF cycles and really only came to you as a last resort before we resigned ourselves to the fact we may never have a child together. Words cannot express our gratitude to you for creating this opportunity for us.

We will keep you posted on the progress of the pregnancy and hope this case will give other couples hope when seeking a reversal even after 19 years as in my case.

You do amazing work, thank you once again.

I live in Ireland and attended your clinic for a vasectomy reversal last August. As I don't live in the UK, you guys asked me to send you back some fertility results as soon as I had been tested. Unfortunately, I haven't organised any testing yet but we have recently learned that my partner is four or five weeks pregnant ao I suppose the point is moot.

Hopefully, given both my age, my partner's age and the length of time since my original vasectomy, this should be good news for your statistics!

Many thanks for everything you did. I was very impressed with all of my contact with you and your team at Gatwick Spire and would not hesitate in recommending you to anybody wishing to undergo this procedure.
