Considering a vasectomy?

Our Newcastle vasectomy clinic offers a modern, gentle and highly experienced approach to permanent contraception for men across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, the Hunter and surrounding regions.

Led by Newcastle local Dr Tim Berwick (Vasectomy Doctor & GP), the clinic provides no-scalpel vasectomy procedures performed in a dedicated medical clinic setting using a refined technique focused on comfort, safety and fast recovery. Dr Berwick has performed more than 3,000+ vasectomies and is known for his calm, reassuring approach and excellent continuity of care.

Unlike some vasectomy providers who travel intermittently to Newcastle, Dr Berwick lives and works locally full-time. This means patients benefit from accessible follow-up care, ongoing support and the reassurance of seeing the same doctor before, during and after their procedure.

The clinic offers a straightforward and supportive experience from consultation through to post-procedure testing.

Travelling to Southeast Asia soon? There is currently an outbreak of measles in Indonesia.

Protect yourself and your family against measles by getting vaccinated before you travel. If you’re travelling to a high-risk area with a baby aged 6 to 18 months old, talk to your GP about whether you can get their free measles vaccines earlier than scheduled.

The measles vaccine is also free in NSW for anyone born during or after 1966 who hasn't already had two doses. Talk with your GP or pharmacist today to get protected! Please note they may charge a small fee to give the vaccine.
