Tubal Reversal Surgery in Mexico was the worst experience of my entire life.
A new member of the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center Message Board shares her "horrible experience" and poor outcome after traveling to Mexico to have tubal reversal surgery. At the time she was motivated by the lower fees she saw advertised, but found that the experience with the other doctor to be a bad one and not worth the savings. She has now chosen Dr. Gary Berger as her tubal reversal surgeon and plans to travel to North Carolina for a repeat repair and a second chance to have a baby with her partner.

Good afternoon! I am writing to let everyone know about what happened to me when I had tubal reversal surgery in Mexico this past January. It was the WORST experience of my entire life!!!!!!! I investigated tubal reversal very well, at least I thought I did. My boyfriend and I decided to go to Mexico because it was half the cost of having tubal reversal in the United States. I took a loan out of my pension, and we scrimped and saved for the remainder of the money.When I arrived in Mexico, I was told via translation from a co-worker of my boyfriend, because the nurses didn't speak English AT ALL! I was informed that I was to have surgery in a half hour. I wasn't prepared at all. I was scheduled to have it the next morning. But, three hours of surgery, it was to take an hour, I was wheeled back to my room. I was in MAJOR pain!!!!!!!!!
Long story short, I arrived back into the states and was in the emergency room in Philadelphia. I was then in the emergency room of my local hospital two days later because my physician thought that I had complications from the surgery. Two months ago I had an HSG done and was told that the surgery didn't work. I have 5cm of tubes on both sides, and my insurance company won't cover my infertility treatments or anything because I had my tubes reversed. However, if I did get pregnant they would cover me.I am now divorced, and almost 42 years old. I've been with my boyfriend for 1 1/2 years. We DESPERATELY want to have children.
I found Dr. Berger's web site and spoke to the RN, who was very nice and kind. I can have the tubal reversal redone by Dr. Berger. The problem is now having to come up with the money again. My boyfriend refuses to take out a loan for the surgery. I am not able to take out another loan on my pension. I had a horrible outcome from it. We really want a child, and are very mad that we didn't just save up more money and go to Dr. Berger in the first place.
Please pray for us that we are able to come up with the money to have Dr. Berger help us. WE DESPERATELY WANT TO HAVE A CHILD TOGETHER!!!!!!
God Bless!

Dear Browneyedangel:
I am so sorry your experience at the other facility was not a good one and look forward to having you here for a re-reversal with Dr. Berger in the future. However, please remember that our rules for posting strictly prohibit name calling or negative comments about other doctors. For that reason, I have edited your post so that names have been removed. It is fine to write generically about your experiences, but flaming or criticizing other doctors is not allowed.
Thanks! We will look forward to meeting you! Please let us know if you have questions.
