Why choose Direct Access Vasectomy
Back to work in days
Most men with desk jobs return to work within 48 hours. Longer for men doing physical jobs. Full aftercare guidance provided.
No-scalpel technique
Open ended vasectomy is a more comfortable, less invasive approach with a faster recovery than traditional methods.
20-30 minute procedure
The vasectomy procedure itself takes around 20-30 minutes under local anaesthetic. Most patients are in and out of the clinic within 45 minutes.
Convenient for patients from Northcote
Northcote sits right at the heart of Melbourne's inner north, with excellent access via the Mernda line from Northcote station, and easy routes along High Street and St Georges Road.

Meet your doctor
Dr Simon Wilson is a GP who has been performing no-scalpel vasectomies since 2006. He founded Direct Access Vasectomy to make the process simpler and more accessible, removing the unnecessary steps that often delay men from acting on a decision they've already made.
Every patient gets time with Dr Simon before the procedure to ask questions, understand what's involved, and feel confident before anything happens. There's no rush, no pressure, and no assumption that you've already made up your mind.
What to expect
We've designed every step to be as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
