Vasectomies

Since I get a stomach ache when I think about vasectomies, is there anyone willing to take up the job of coordinating vasectomies (and any other family med procedures) you can think of? Andrew did it last year.

I'm sure we could get you a title (i.e. desired infertility chief) if you do it.

details:
We are in the process of making more vasectomy procedures available to residents. Dr. Harman (now ????) performs the majority of vasectomies at the Northwest clinic. Likewise, Dr. Robelia does the majority of them at the Northeast clinic. Dr. Merry does them at the Baldwin Clinic (?). They are excellent educators and are interested in letting us assist them. Also, the two of them have very different styles with which they perform the procedure.

Monday of each week, an eMail will be sent out with available vasectomy opportunities for that week. They will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Please take into account that these are "extra curricular," and will not be scheduled instead of required activities (rotation, Kasson, FMPC, etc.). That means that you’ll have to do them post-call, on a day off, or wherever you can fit one in.

Also remember that there are vasectomy opportunities with Drs. Bernard, Billings, and Adamson that occur throughout residency.
