I wanted to share this story with other couples so they too may be blessed with a child and share the same joy we have felt. My husband and I were married in 2009. For both of us this was our second marriage. He had three children earlier in his life and therefore had a vasectomy. When we started dating I had expressed my desire to have a child someday. We had agreed we would try a vasectomy reversal. After some research I found Dr. Silber. We later scheduled the surgery to be done.
We had the procedure done in January 2012. We had decided that this was our only chance to conceive. We were not going to pursue any other avenues such as in vitro. We had a friend that had a reversal from another facility who had a low count and did not achieve pregnancy. Thanks to Dr. Silber we conceived first in December 2014. Unfortunately that pregnancy was lost, but we again got pregnant in November 2014. On August 12th 2015 we were blessed to welcome our “Cowboy” to this world. Our entire family couldn’t be more happy and thankful for our little blessing. Everyday he brings smiles and joy into our lives. Without the successful work of Dr. Silber this would not have been possible for us. We truly thank you and God for our child.
Infertile patients cannot afford to wait for treatment while their eggs get older.
Dr. Sherman Silber, Infertility Center of St. Louis, is offering video consultations for patients who need to plan now for their treatment while stay-at-home orders are in place. He is talking to and evaluating patients in their home to comply with social distancing measures.
Dr. Silber is discovering that patients actually prefer this method of telemedicine consultation over the conventional office visit. Patients have conveyed that “it is so much more convenient and less stressful” to have a telemedicine personal consultation than to take a day off from work to travel to the doctor’s office and sit with other nervous patients in the waiting room.
The COVID-19 pandemic is thus changing much of the way we will do things in the future, and for the better. “Our patients are surprisingly much happier with this approach. Of course, at some point we need to perform hands on treatment. But with this new manner of seeing patients, we can come to the right diagnosis and treatment plan for most patients more efficiently, quickly, and painlessly, with no loss of personal one-on-one communication.” This is a very welcome new era of telemedicine that has been forced on us by the current difficult times.
