Yes, he is. The only one in the area.
We will probably wait and see what the doctor recommends. If he recommends the surgery, we will go for it. There's always the chance that the varicocele won't return, and even if we have to do IVF for the first, I would like to think that we might not have to worry about it in the future.
Although I'm not positive, I think the varicocele repair would still be covered by our insurance. They told us over the phone that they cover surgery, doctor visits, blood work, and ultrasounds, but nothing else. Basically, anything diagnostic. If it turns out this surgery wouldn't be covered, I'm sure it would have an influence on what we decide to do.
