Before Your Scheduled Consultation Appointment

To optimize the benefit that you receive from your consultation appointment with Fertility & Women's Health Center of Louisiana, we encourage you to plan ahead by addressing the following items:

  • Make sure you have filled out the medical history forms online before your consultation. Upon deciding to go ahead with your Tubal Ligation Reversal, our nurses will send you information on how to fill out the necessary forms online.
  • Take the time to read the articles on this site that may pertain to your possible treatment. A better informed patient makes better decisions.
  • Make sure that our office has a copy of your operative report from the physician who performed your tubal ligation surgery. You may fax your operative report to 337/989-8766. Please use our Fax Cover Sheet. If you do not have this information, you may opt to have a screening laparoscopy. 
  • If your husband has had a recent semen analysis, please obtain a copy of this also and fax to 337/989-8766. Please use our Fax Cover Sheet.
  • If your consultation will be by telephone we will schedule a "window" of time for Dr. Storment to call you to discuss your tubal reversal options. Please make sure that you are available and ready to answer your phone during the appointment time window.

What to Expect at Your Consultation Appointment

Your consultation appointment with Dr. Storment at Fertility & Women's Health Center of Louisiana is a very important one and we encourage both partners to attend (or be available if it is by phone). During this consultation, you will meet your physician to discuss your medical history and operative report from your tubal ligation surgery. Based on initial information, some lab tests may be required or recommended. The most successful initial consultations occur when your physician knows as much information as possible about your medical history, tubal ligation procedure and prior tests or treatments. We encourage our patients to be open and to become an active participant in their healthcare. You will also meet one of our Tubal Reversal nurses who will be the one to review medication details and additional tests that need to be performed, based on the initial test results, during follow-up visits.
