microsurgical repair of varicoceles and blockages. He has performed over 1,000 microsurgical vaso-vasostomies and vaso-

highest reported sperm return and pregnancy rates. He developed a microsurgical technique of varicocelectomy in 1984
and has performed over 3,500 cases with the lowest reported failure and complication rates. He was the first American
surgeon to be trained in and perform the Chinese method of No-Scalpel Vasectomy. He has introduced the
microsurgically-assisted inguinal hernia repair, which significantly reduces complications and failures.
