Multiple Avenues of Treatment
There are many factors that contribute to male infertility, and we recognize that it can significantly affect one’s well-being. Male infertility can stem from the inability to create a healthy sperm count or a proper erection.
Treatment for male infertility starts with a standard physical examination and a semen analysis. After discussing your medical history and analyzing your sperm count, your doctor may recommend further steps such as an ultrasound, hormone testing, genetic tests, a testicular biopsy, or other avenues of treatment.
Male infertility typically manifests as the inability to make a fertile woman pregnant after at least a year of unprotected intercourse. Other contributing factors can range from:
Difficulties with sexual function
Pain, swelling, or a lump in the testicle area
A low number of sperm
Genetic conditions
Abnormal hormone production

The staff is very welcoming and professional. My yearly checkup was thorough and informative. I would recommend this group to anyone interested in the best level of healthcare!
The staff is always so considerate and they really go above and beyond for my client. Never a doubt that we are in good hands – and leaving with smiles.
I had an issue and was worked into the schedule with no problem. I received the utmost care and concern from everyone I worked with. The nurses were patient with me, helping me try different approaches until we found the right solution. They were very helpful throughout the entire visit, and even afterward when I needed a replacement cap. Such a great relief to know that everyone is so caring. Thank you!

You may call 402-421-8899 if your questions are related to your planned procedure, procedure instructions, postoperative care, etc. This will connect you with our surgery preadmission nurse. If your questions is more general or related to your clinic appointment or if you are calling for procedure results, please call 402-489-8888 to speak with a clinic nurse.
In general, we believe that it is important for family members to be able to be present as much as possible in the preop and recovery phases of care. Patient safety, visitor safety, patient privacy and confidentiality are also important, so we entrust this to the discretion of our nursing staff. In general, we ask that no more than two family members/visitors be present to accompany a patient.
Minor/pediatric patients are required to have a responsible adult in the center with them at all times.
We do request that, whenever possible, your escort remain at the center until you are ready to leave. It is acceptable if they have a short errand to make and will return immediately prior to you being ready for discharge. If your driver leaves the center, we must have a phone number to reach them.
If you are having general anesthesia, we will request that you remove your dentures just prior to going into the operating room. They will be given back to you as soon as you are awake. This is due to the possibility of bending or breaking during your procedure when you will not be able to protect the dentures. If you are having only topical anesthesia, you may keep your dentures intact.
Please call our preadmission nurse at 402-421-8899 to discuss your procedure and current illness or symptoms. Our nurse will work closely with your surgeon to determine if there is a need to reschedule.
Your ability to return to work will be determined by your surgeon. You are encouraged to discuss them with him/her at your appointment. If needed, a release can be provided to you for the day of the procedure and FMLA/disability forms can be completed by clinic personnel. There is a nominal fee, and it may take up to 1 week for completion.
We do advise that you have someone available to drive you in some cases. If you are receiving general or moderate/IV anesthesia or if you take sedating medication, you must have a driver for your safety. For procedures that are scheduled without anesthesia (i.e. cystoscopy, prostate biopsy, vasectomy, etc.) you may drive yourself as long as you feel comfortable doing so.
Depending on your procedure and overall health, you may need pre-operative testing and/or an appointment with a primary provider to ensure that you are healthy and safe to undergo a procedure. This will be determined by your surgery and anesthesiologist prior to surgery.
