Date of Tubal Reversal: 03/06
Date of Pregnancy Test: 21 November 08
Due Date: 01 August 09
Remarks: We are pregnant again. After four miscarriages, the last an ectopic, we found I tested positive for two blood disorders, MTHFR and Lupus Anitcoagulant. After my last miscarriage in May, I began an 81mg aspirin regimen and increased my folic acid. My quants on Wednesday were 285 so, I’ll have an ultrasound on Monday to rule out an ectopic pregnancy. Dr. Berger was very supportive back in June when I learned of the clotting disorders. I pray this pregnancy goes the distance.

Date of Tubal Reversal: 03/24/2008
Date of Pregnancy Test: 11/14/08
Due Date: 07/06/09
Remarks: I’m scheduled for a check up with the Ob on Wed (11/19/08). They plan to do a vaginal ultrasound and exam and if everything looks ok I will have a regular ultrasound on Thursday (11/20/08). I feel pretty good. No real nausea, but I do feel fatigued. We are not sure when my last period was because I had a period on 9/30 (which was normal) and then I had a lite period about 14 days later that lasted about 3-4 days. It was more than spotting but less than a normal period, so I’m not sure if that was implantation bleeding or another period. The doctor is going on the 9/30 date for now which would make me about 7 weeks.

We decided to try for another baby in Sept 2008 and I’m already pregnant! Interestingly enough, I had a positive result exactly 3yrs and 1 day from my positive result for Elise. Elise turned 2 in June 2008 so we’re guesstimating our baby will be born right around the time she turns 3. My first OB appt. is on Dec. 9th so I will know more then. THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH! There isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t look at her and know who is to thank for the happiness she brings us. What you all do for families like ours is simply amazing. Love & Peace, Christie G.

Remarks: After tubal reversal I had 2 miscarriages and 1 ectopic pregnancy. We went ahead and did the invitro and we had twins on 5/03/07. after the twins we did not think we could get pregnant on our own. I became pregnant on February 9/2007 and had positive pregnancy test 2/22/07 and I delivered on 10/18/08. his name is Zachary William Hehl. He is the first natural pregnancy that went to term since tubal reversal. I don’t know what happened to my tubes during the pregnancy with the twins, however it must have helped or it was a miracle and maybe I won’t have any more! Zachary is my 10th child.

Tubal Reversal Patient Satisfaction Messages

Tubal Reversal Doctor December 2nd, 2008
I took a lot of time looking for a doctor who could perform a tubal reversal. There are many out there, and having surgery isn’t something I take lightly. It was very important for me to find the right tubal reversal doctor and the right staff to provide me with EXCELLENT care.

I found Dr. Berger and his staff at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center to go above and beyond my expectations. I was able to get all my questions answered before and even after surgery. Dr. Berger and his staff provided me with great care, and were very helpful during the entire process. My reversal surgery went very well, and I healed very quickly. At my discharge they gave me instructions that I followed closely. I was very impressed by the follow up care that Dr. Berger and his staff provided. I am more than satisfied. They are a great team, and it because of the team work that makes Dr. Berger and his staff unique.

I would encourage anyone considering a tubal reversal to contact Dr. Berger.

Tubes Tied Not Permanent November 26th, 2008

Dr. Berger,

I could sing your praises forever and, in fact, I have referred many people to you including perfect strangers who have stopped to remark on how precious our little D’Angelo is. I know all tubal reversal stories are different, and ours is also a most unique story. My husband and I have been together for sixteen years and had our first three kids in our mid-twenties. We always wanted more but after having to take custody of my husband’s siblings, we made the huge mistake of getting my tubes tied, a choice we thought was permanent.  I mourned the loss of the children we never had. As the kids all grew older and as we approached our mid-thirties, we began to talk about the “what-ifs” and after a short time on the internet researching PTLS, found your website.

This has been the most miraculous experience and we know that God led us directly to your care. Our first three kids are now thirteen, eleven, and nine. To be able to share this with our children is an experience beyond words. They were all in the delivery room with us, my daughters holding my legs and actively coaching, and my son being able to cut his new brother’s umbilical cord. A choir of tearful joy enveloped D’Angelo as he entered this world.

Our family is better and stronger for this, and we are all anxious to meet and be blessed with another baby come July.

Tubal Reversal Satisfaction November 26th, 2008

Honestly, anyone who would rate their satisfaction less than a 10 is insane. Everyone at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center was wonderful. I can’t get care at my own doctor’s office as good as I got from the staff at your facility. I just want to thank everyone there for the care my husband and I received. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to have our tubal reversal procedure done.

Thank you again, Dr. Berger, and staff. We can’t wait to inform you when we get pregnant.

Recommend Dr. Berger November 26th, 2008
I want to thank you, Dr. Berger, and your entire staff.  My tubal reversal surgery couldn’t have gone any more smoothly. I had no nausea afterward and I can’t even ride in a car without getting sick to my stomach! You guys should be very proud of the work that you do. You are extremely professional and efficient and as a health care professional I know what I am talking about.
Great Job! I would recommend you to anyone.
Thanks again,

A New Beginning November 24th, 2008
I had my surgery done 20 Nov, and am now sitting here at home, a little sore, but healing very nicely. I have been reflecting on my experience for the past couple of days and how it has changed us as a family already.

Doctor Monteith, I’m sure you know how you make a difference in people’s lives, given the nature of your work, and you must hear words of gratitude quite often. You gave us hope. The magic and joy of even having the possibility to conceive fills every corner of our house. We all feel it, even our daughters. Sir, you were so nice to us, and down to earth. We thank you.

Doctor Hertz, the anesthesia and getting put to sleep was the scariest part for me. You were so unbelievably kind and very patient from the beginning. We trusted you, and on the morning of the surgery, I felt no fear. We thank you as well.

To all the nurses, Martha, Donna, Fran, Lorie, and Susie thank you all so much for your kindness, and your smiles. When I posted on the message board about my experience, I told everyone that I was treated with a tenderness that is almost nonexistent in most health care institutions today. You all are very special.

Ultimately this was one of the best experiences of my life, not just because it marks a new beginning, but because it is just that type of establishment: first rate, professional, knowledgeable, affordable, organized, and caring. Even the hotel stay was perfect! And finally, Dr. Berger, I did not meet you, but this clinic is yours, and we thank God for you and that you decided to open it. You must be proud of this amazing staff.

Have a happy thanksgiving all of you.

Daniel, and Elle S.

Second Child Since Tubal Reversal November 24th, 2008
This will be our second child since our tubal reversal, and our fifth total. We feel truly blessed to have welcomed our son, D’Angelo, in September 2007. We are very excited that he will soon be a big brother!

Without your steady hands, Dr. Berger, and God’s blessing, we wouldn’t even have this news to share. Thanks for everything. We are putting together a scrapbook to send to your office, but it obviously won’t be complete until next year.

I also wanted you to know that as early as my first menstrual cycle post-surgery, my PTLS had disappeared completely.

Thanks Dr. Monteith!

I am amazed that I feel so good, and that I am getting along as well as I am. You did an amazing job, and I would recommend you and Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center to anyone inquiring about tubal reversal surgery. I appreciate your taking the extra time to repair that difficult right tube. I admire your dedication. You will never be forgotten.. . and I pray that God will bless you for the many many lives you are touching through TR surgery. You are truly a God send.

Thank you for correcting the biggest mistake of my life. And you will be the first to know when Chad and I conceive.

The staff, nurses, doctors, anesthesiologist EVERYONE was just wonderful. Everyone made sure to explain everything that was happening or going to happen. They made sure I was comfortable at all times and were very reassuring when I started to get anxious.

Thank you so much for giving us another chance to add to our family! I will refer everyone that is thinking about having a tubal reversal done to your facility. The whole experience was great.
Thank you.

I had my tubes untied by Dr. Berger on April 3rd and on May 21st I found out that I was pregnant. On November 12th, I gave birth to a 1 pound 10 ounce baby girl, Danaysia. She is doing just fine.

I just wanted to thank you and your staff because not only did you do what you said you could, but also you were the nicest and most humble people that I ever met and you changed my life.

Recommend Tubal Surgery November 21st, 2008
Dear Dr. Berger,
I just wanted to say thanks for everything. I had my tubal surgery last Monday and I would recommend tubal surgery at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center to anyone. All of the staff were so nice and the nurses went out of their way to make me more comfortable, especially Brenna (Recovery Room Nurse). Hopefully we’ll be pregnant soon!
Thanks again!

Thanks Dr. Berger November 21st, 2008
Dear Dr. Berger,

There isn’t a thing I can say that hasn’t been said to you, but I do want you to know how much I appreciate you and your staff for what you’ve done for me. That was an experience I’ll never forget, and what a shame other medical facilities aren’t run the way yours is. You’ve given me a shot at something I never dreamed was a possibility, according to others I’ve spoken to, so no matter what happens, you are valued very much by all of us.

Thank you so much, and about that ratemds.com site…. can I still go there and leave you rave reviews, or is that something that was only temporary?  I’d love to post something special about you and your wonderful staff.
Thank you so much!

Due Date: 03-29-09
Remarks: Hello–I had my TR for PTLS. We were not actively trying to conceive and I had actually undergone surgery for a procedure and was apparently a few days pregnant at the time. Oops! When I found out I was pregnant the beginning of August I went in that day for Hcg draws and repeated that three more times.

I also had two ultrasounds with the first showing a sac at 6w2d. I had a second ultrasound at 7w5d and we saw the baby with the heartbeat. I went in today for a regular checkup with my OB doctor and the heartbeat was heard via doppler and she did an in-office ultrasound where we saw the baby kicking and the heartbeat again. I will be 12 weeks on Sunday. While this wasn’t a planned pregnancy it is slowly growing on me and I am more happy/relieved reaching this many weeks and having no complications and then again today seeing the baby/heartbeat. Just thought I’d fill you guys in! Take care!

Remarks: Hey you guys! Just wanted to up date you… I am 35 weeks pregnant with our TR son. I have been on meds to stop pre-mature labor which started on 9/18/2008. It has worked. We are still hanging in there! I actually went a couple weeks ago and had 3D-4D ultrasound photos taken of the baby and boy is he fat. He is not only a miracle performed through Dr. Berger but a healthy miracle. By doc’s opinion we are looking at a 9.5 pounder lil fellow easily. So, again… thanks to all of you and keep up the good work. As long as you guys continue to be obedient in the miracles God uses you for, you will continue to be blessed.

I will continue to keep you guys in my prayers asking God to continue to use you all for his works and to continue to bless all of you!!!! Thanks! I hope to be sending you guys pictures of the new Berger Baby shortly.

Remarks: I just went to Doctor today to make an appt. because I was told once I get a positive test make one and don’t wait since there is a chance for tubal pregnancy. The nurse gave me a very had time saying they can’t do anything for me until I’m 8 weeks. I did get my blood work done today. The level was 38. She said it was too early to tell. I go back Wednesday. I asked her after that do I go back in two days? She said “no” but I read that I need to get blood work done until I reach 1500, right? What can I do about this? Can you right a letter or just tell me what to do because I don’t know and I’m scared if I don’t get the care that I need. The nurse is giving me a hard time - not my Doctor, I didn’t get to talk to her yet. Thank You in advance.

At age 45, Debbie reports the birth of her little miracle, Olivia Grace, following tubal ligation reversal performed by Dr. Berger at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. She says, “I’m hoping this will give other women in their 40’s hope that it can happen.”

Our 5 year tubal reversal anniversary is here. Baby #1 (Italia) is 4 and going to pre-school. Baby #2 (Jay) is three and into everything. Thank you, Dr. Berger.” John and Tracey S.

“Our second tubal reversal baby was born yesterday. I had the reversal at 39, had a healthy baby girl at 40, and a healthy baby boy at 44 1/2. Even doctors have marveled about me having two kids in my forties after having my tubes tied/untied.” Dana McC.

“We are pleased to announce the arrival of our Baby Girl, KaraLeena Alyssia!” Rich and Brenda M.

“My tubal reversal worked AGAIN. I am happy to say I now have two tubal reversal babies. Tubal reversal really does work and works well!” Becky K.

Location: McLean Virginia
Date of Tubal Reversal: 2/4/08
Date of Pregnancy Test: 5/21/08 and 5/22/08 home test; 5/27/08 blood test
Due Date: 1/31/09
Remarks: I have concerns about an ectopic pregnancy and about my HCG level. My gut instinct does not leave me concerned about a miscarriage, but ectopic pregnancies… more so. Can you please provide any insight? My blood test results from yesterday, 5/27/08, showed Progesterone Assay of 22.80 and Beta HCG of 2,406. The HCG level was much higher than I would have expected given that I’m only 4 1/2 weeks out from the 1st day of my last period and only 3 weeks out from the date of conception - 5/6/08 - we didn’t even really try this month because we were a bit surprised to have had no luck in prior months, were taking it easy, and my OPK results were confusing me. I had understood that HCG levels are typically 1,500 - 2,500 in the 8-10 week range. Am I misinformed about HCG levels or indeed, do these seem high at this early stage? With HCG level already so high, I’m guessing my OB/Gyn will order an ultrasound next week, but I’m concerned that it’s so early that the sac won’t be visible. Alternatively, do HCG levels this high suggest multiples? My husband and I have no history of this with our first 3 children or in our families and we certainly didn’t do any fertility. I hope to speak to my Ob/GYN tomorrow. I got these results from her nurse today. Upon my questioning/wondering, the nurse said nothing definitive but asked me some questions about my dates this month and last month - my sense is she was wondering if I was pregnant during my previous cycle which began 4/2/08. Thanks much for any insight!

Date of Pregnancy Test: 5/25/08
Remarks: I received a faint BFP on Sunday - this is my first since reversal - had some spotting yesterday and an even fainter BFP Monday morning. I am thinking this a chemical pregnancy or not a viable one - just do not have a good feeling but at least I know now I can get pregnant. I have a call in to Dr’s office to schedule blood work just to be safe (even if I do start my period I want to make sure levels go to 0). But I wanted to post my positive so that it can be included in your stats since it is possible.

God has truly blessed Dr. Berger with the ability and talent to perform these surgeries and for that I am so truly grateful. Thank you to all of the staff and to Dr. Berger.

Remarks: I had my tr in March 2005. I did try clomid and IUD twice. Both were not successful. I have not used clomid or ovulation packets for over 6 months. Just left it in God’s hands. I am 43 years of age and I am always 26 days on my cycle. I did have it confirmed that one of my tubes is blocked from scar tissue so I only have my left one open. I missed my cycle and have not been feeling very well for the last week or so. I bought a pregnancy test and it was positive. I bought 4 more and they are all positive. I did this yesterday late afternoon. By the time I took the test the Dr’s office was closed so I did not get a chance to call but I am planning on calling Monday morning.

Date of Tubal Reversal: 5/1/07
Date of Pregnancy Test: 4/19/08
Due Date: January 19th???, 2009
Remarks: I’m not entirely sure how this happened!!! LOL - I must have ovulated right after my period stopped??? I don’t really ‘feel’ pregnant yet, the only reason I tested was because I thought I started bleeding/spotting again 2 days after my cycle stopped. Then it stopped after 2 days and started again 2 days later. I’ve never ever had spotting or any kind of break thru bleeding-except when I was pregnant. Also, I was having pain on my right side that was strong enough to wake me from sleep Friday night. We did the hpt and that line came of fast. We aren’t talking a faint line, like I would have expected on CD16!!!(if any line at all) My Dr. sent us to the Hospital since I was having pain on Rt. side. The pain went away and my hcg level was 549. Although it was too early to see anything, they did an ultrasound anyway. Nothing. I test today for 2nd level. I still have some spotting, not like I did on Saturday. Just playing the waiting game and praying for our miracle. Funny how life changes in a moment! Thanks!!

Date of Pregnancy Test: 04/15/08
Remarks: I have had 2 miscarriages and one ectopic (lost my right tube). We weren’t trying because my HSG showed scar tissue even though I did see with my own eyes the dye go all the way through. We weren’t TTC since I was told I didn’t ovulate without Clomid (I have never test positive for ovulation with test sticks or a fertility monitor without being one Clomid). We are in total shock and of coarse overjoyed and scared at the same time. My 1st HCG number at CD 31 was 21 at CD 33 39 (that was 45 hours apart). I will keep you updated.

Date of Pregnancy Test: April 13, 2008 & April 14, 2008
Due Date: December 6, 2008
Remarks: I used ovulation test sticks (7 stick packs), monitored daily temperature and monitored my cycle. In March (period began 3/1) the peak ovulation day was never indicated. In April I had what appeared to be a very brief (2 1/2 days) period beginning 4/1. Noticed swollen and tender breast on 4/10. Began my usual ovulation stick test on 4/11. On the morning of 4/13 I took both an ovulation test and a pregnancy test and the pregnancy test came up positive. Noticed some spotting that day. Had a quantitative analysis done at ob/gyn on 4/14 which confirmed the pregnancy. Monday 4/14 Progesterone 3.87 and HCG 144.1. Due to the low numbers I was put on Progesterone suppositories and pelvic rest. Wednesday 4/16 Progesterone 22.25 and HCG 176.8. Today, Friday 4/18 HCG 299.00. I continue daily spotting and remain on Progesterone suppositories. I am scheduled for another quantitative analysis on Monday 4/21.

Date of Tubal Reversal: April 2006
Date of Pregnancy Test: Feb 17
Remarks: I did not believe I could be pregnant because I had a period only 2 weeks prior to a positive pregnancy test. The reason that I took the pregnancy test is because I had all the signs of an ectopic pregnancy. I was right. The pregnancy was ectopic and my tube (right) had already ruptured. I had surgery and lost both the baby and the right tube. Took me a while to report this to you, but I thought you should have the info for your statistics.

Remarks: Although my husband and I were extremely excited to find the pregnancy test positive on Friday, April 4th, I did start having some mild pains on my right side. The next day I had no pain at all, but Sunday morning I wasn’t feeling so well. I got up and went to church but I started to have some intense pain. I went directly to the ER. They did an ultrasound and found a mass in my right tube. The doctor could not verify that it was a sac and decided to do some exploratory surgery to find out exactly what it was. It was in fact an ectopic pregnancy in the tube which had to be terminated. Thankfully, there was no damage to the tube or any surrounding tissue. We felt that God had already given us a name for this child, Moriah Grace, and we will be holding a memorial service for her this next Sunday. Thank you Dr. Berger and staff. This is not the way we wanted things to turn out, but we now know that I can in fact get pregnant. We do so appreciate the gift you have given in restoring my body. Blessings, Tim and Joyce J.

Remarks: Had M/C on 2/21/2008 one week after a + HPT. first number 59, second (a week later) 6. started feeling funny so tested on 3/15 and got a bfp. 3/19 hcg 141 3/21 hcg 318 3/26 hcg 2549 u/s on 3/31 showed gest sac, fetal pole and h/b of 97 they say I am measuring 6 weeks but at the u/s i had a m/c exactly 5 weeks 4 days before. Also found something odd on my ovary that doesn’t look like a cyst, going for another u/s in week to check it and baby again, they seem to think the heart is too slow for 6 weeks along even though I explained that I could be no further than 5 w 4 d. What do you think, is that a slow heart rate?

Remarks: I just took two pregnancy tests this morning. I turned my fertility monitor on and I am CD36 and it was flashing m for my next cycle. I looked on my posts, and I was either 12 or 13 DPO so I tested. I haven’t seen an OB yet, but I did have an appointment scheduled for the 11th of this month to meet my new Ob and start talking about fertility options. After the excitement settled this morning, I called his office and they moved my appointment up to this Friday at 2.

Remarks: My previous pregnancy was ectopic and not discovered soon enough, so I ended up losing my right fallopian tube in surgery on 1/30/08. I will be seeing a different OB/GYN since my previous one really dropped the ball, but at least I know a lot more about the condition now.
