NHS Vasectomy Services – Frimley ICB & BOB ICB Patients Welcome
Looking for a safe, professional, and effective NHS vasectomy service? We provide high-quality, vasectomy procedures under the NHS for men registered with GP practices in both Frimley Integrated Care Board (ICB) and BOB ICB (Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, and Berkshire West).
How to access our NHS vasectomy service
If you are a Frimley ICB patient, you can refer yourself directly for a vasectomy using our secure online self-referral form below. It’s quick and convenient – just make sure to enter the name of your GP practice in the form. Referrals without the GP practice name cannot be processed. Before you start completing the form, please read this whole page completely.
Please do not include any clinical or medical details in the self-referral form, as it is not intended for sharing personal health information.
If you are registered with a GP under BOB ICB, you are not yet eligible to use the self-referral form. Instead, please contact your GP and ask them to refer you to our NHS vasectomy clinic. We are working to expand self-referral access to BOB ICB patients in the near future.
Why choose the NHS vasectomy clinic run by Thames Valley Vasectomy Services?
Our NHS vasectomy service is run from the beautiful, purpose-built Bourne End Clinic, opened just a year ago. This ultra-modern facility is equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology, designed to deliver the highest standards of care and comfort. While our vasectomy procedures are NHS-funded, the setting and patient experience often feel like a private clinic — and that’s exactly how we want it to feel.
All NHS patients benefit from:
A place in our world-leading vasectomy information webinar, ensuring clear, confident decision-making before the procedure
Comfortable, discreet, and premium-standard surroundings
Fast and friendly care from our dedicated team
The clinic is located just 150 yards from Bourne End train station, with direct connections to the Elizabeth Line via Maidenhead. A bus from High Wycombe stops right in front of the clinic, making it extremely accessible. In fact, our excellent transport links are so convenient that we regularly see private patients from across the UK, and even international patients arriving via Heathrow Airport.
All of our vasectomies are performed using the no-scalpel vasectomy technique — a minimally invasive approach associated with less discomfort, quicker recovery, and lower complication rates.
Our NHS vasectomy service is delivered by a team of highly experienced surgeons, all dedicated to providing safe, efficient, and compassionate care.

Want to skip the NHS waiting list?
If you’re looking for faster access, greater flexibility, or a specific appointment time, our private vasectomy service is an excellent alternative.
Many of our private patients are managers, business owners, contractors, and self-employed professionals who can’t afford NHS waiting times or need more flexible schedules. Choosing a private vasectomy means you can:
Select a preferred day, including Fridays (our premium day), so you can recover over the weekend
Avoid disruption to work and family life
Skip GP referral delays and book directly
Receive flexible, priority appointment slots
- Get postal semen sampling rather than having to go to a laboratory for added convenience
- Get Dr Kittel’s phone number for 24/7 post surgery direct access while NHS patients will have to call 111 out of hours.
Expert care from Dr Kittel, one of the UK’s most experienced vasectomy surgeons
Private patients also benefit from the expertise of Dr. Martin Kittel, who has personally performed over 20,000 vasectomies. Known as one of the fastest and most skilled vasectomy surgeons in the UK, Dr. Kittel is often the surgeon of choice for complex or challenging cases — including men declined elsewhere due to difficult anatomy.
Today, Dr. Kittel focuses primarily on our private vasectomy service, delivering world-class care in a calm and professional setting using the no-scalpel technique and maintaining an exceptionally low failure rate.
