Why Leave Nova Scotia for No Scalpel Vasectomy?
No-scalpel vasectomy has become the modern standard for vasectomy. When paired with no-needle anaesthesia the result is a procedure with minimal discomfort and maximum convenience.
This procedure typically has a wait list in Halifax, and may be unavailable in parts of Nova Scotia.
It’s about 350 km from Truro, NS to Fredericton, NB and you can leave home in the morning from most parts of NS and be at our vasectomy clinic by lunchtime.
Our Nova Scotian clients may choose to spend one night in Fredericton after their procedure and go home the following day – or if you come with a driver you might even go back home the same afternoon. If you are not in a rush it may be more comfortable to sleep over in Fredericton.

Vasectomy Trends in Nova Scotia
No-Scalpel Vasectomy in Halifax
No-Scalpel Vasectomy (NSV) was developed in China in 1974 by Dr. Li Shunqiang. By 1985, an international team made up of members from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Access to Voluntary and Safe Contraception (AVSC), formerly the Association for Voluntary Surgical Contraception, were visiting China to study alternative vasectomy procedures, including NSV.
In 1988, after careful observation and review of the NSV procedure, they decided to introduce the technique to North America.
Since then, over 1,000,000 No-Scalpel vasectomies have been performed in North America and nearly 20,000,000 in China, and the numbers around the world are growing.
Our Fredericton vasectomy clinic uses this advanced method and Gentle Procedures Clinics across North America have been performing scalpel-free vasectomies with great success for many years.
NSV Benefits vs. Conventional Vasectomy
No scalpel vasectomy is a simple and elegant in-office procedure that many studies show has significant advantages over conventional vasectomy. NSV is comparatively faster, has a swifter recovery time, safer (one-eighth the rate of bleeding and infection) and can be virtually pain-free – especially when coupled with no-needle anesthesia – as done at our Fredericton vasectomy clinic serving Haligonian men.
With a conventional vasectomy procedure, a doctor would make two incisions, one on each side of the scrotum, perform the procedure, and then stitch up the incisions. The stitches would then have to be removed about a week later.
With the NSV approach there is no knife, no cutting incision, no stitches and no-needle. Men who have undergone NSV express amazement at the minimal physical discomfort they experienced both during the procedure and during recovery.
Men who were previously not considering vasectomy because they feared the scalpel can now feel comfortable, relaxed and confident with this simple procedure.
