Vasectomy in Bradenton,
Florida:
|

|

|
The Manatee County Health Department may
have
Title X funding available for
vasectomy. Their
funds are awarded based on a sliding scale. You must be over 21
years old and wait 30 days after a consultation before you can have your
procedure. Counseling and financial screening are
done in the main health department clinic at 401 6th Avenue East,
Bradenton, Florida 34208.
Vasectomy services are then provided by
Dr. Doug Stein at the
Health Department on certain "Vasectomy Days" (see Dr. Stein's
schedule) or at Dr. Stein's office
in Tampa.
To check the status of the Manatee
vasectomy program or to make an appointment for
counseling, call
(941) 748-0747 Ext. 1268 |
|
The main entrance is actually on the south side of the building, not
on the side that faces 6th Avenue, which is a busy one-way street with traffic
flowing west to east. |
 |
| Drive past the
Health Department building and turn right on 5th Street East
(where that white pickup is coming out) to get to the main
entrance. |

If Title X funds are not available in Manatee County
(they sometimes run out toward the end of
the July 1 - June 30 fiscal year), Manatee
residents (or any Florida residents for that matter) may want to consider
applying for assistance through the
health department of a nearby county such as
Hillsborough,
Sarasota or Hardee. |
|
If you do not
qualify for assistance, or if the use of the Health Department seems too
cumbersome logistically, you may have your vasectomy at
Dr. Stein's Tampa office for a fee of
$390. |
