You carried out a vasectomy reversal procedure in 2021 after having a vasectomy 18 years and 9 months early in December 2003. My wife fell pregnant a few months later but unfortunately miscarried twice in the early stages of pregnancy but in January of this year my wife fell pregnant again . 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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
