No Scalpel Vasectomy: Promoting and Providing Free Services Globally

Charity

The Dr Snip team regularly travel to the Philippines and work with the US based charity, No Scalpel Vasectomy International (NSVI) in a quest to promote and provide free No Scalpel Vasectomy services globally. NSVI promoted and provides free No Scalpel Vasectomy services globally, particularly in developing countries whose infrastructure and environmental resources are challenged by rapid population growth unchecked by established and/or effective family planning programs.

Dr Snip team members are actively involved in No Scalpel Vasectomy Australia our home-grown version of NSVI. These works are self-funded ‘pro-bono’ work.

Donations help NSVA to provide no cost vasectomies to disadvantaged groups in Australia and overseas and NSVI to provide vasectomies globally.

The rationale for our involvement includes:

Vasectomy is the most effective means of long-term contraception, primarily because, once rendered, it requires no compliance, as is the case with barrier and hormonal methods.
Female sterilization under local anaesthesia is more time-consuming and painful than vasectomy, and less effective.
Pregnancy and childbirth are the main causes of mortality in developing countries for women ages 15-35, with the rate of complications rising as parity increases.
In countries with limited infrastructure (good roads, public transportation, running water, electricity, etc.) and social programs (health care, police protection, free public education, etc.), high birth rates promote joblessness, poverty, and crowded living conditions, which, in turn, often increase the risks of crime and disease.

Further contributions include:

To pay domestic NSVI vasectomy providers for their year-round services on a per case basis.
To purchase and maintain the instruments and supplies used by domestic NSVI vasectomy providers.
To reimburse the facilities where foreign NSVI vasectomy providers provide services.
To pay nurses and social workers to provide patient education and public awareness of vasectomy, including brochures and posters printed in local dialects, for both year-round services and annual missions.
Transportation, board and lodging for mission surgeons, nurses, and helpers.
To provide honorariums for mission nurses and helpers.
To reimburse vasectomy patients for meals, transportation, and loss of family income for the day of their vasectomies and the following day of recuperation.
To provide medications (antibiotics and analgesics) to vasectomy patients.
To purchase disposables for vasectomy mission days: surgeons’ gloves, antiseptics, anaesthetics, sterile drapes, bandages, etc.
