The scheduled live TV snip seems to be causing a bit of a stir! According to the Sunday Mail “Family and children’s groups are outraged at plans for a live broadcast of a man having a vasectomy. The Australian Medical Association has also condemned the showing of the graphic medical procedure, planned for Tuesday night’s Live program. “
Sounds to me like “There’s no such thing as bad publicity”. It’s likely to be a repeat of the UK live vasectomy, as it’s the Marie Stopes organisation behind it. My guess is that like the UK live vasectomy it will be responsibly done, and it strikes me that by stirring up the public in advance, that should ensure some good viewing figures.
I wonder if the “Hospital watch” type program format is used in Australia? I’d guess that it is. WHY do they always show gory operations at the time most people are having an evening meal??! So are Australians used to seeing graphical medical procedures on TV anyway?
I know nothing about the presenter, or the show’s normal format. I suppose if the presenter, or show usually trivialises serious topics the criticisms might be justified. Anyone in Australia able to shed more light on this?
I hope they post it on the net for all to see, as they did with the UK one.

A patient on the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center message board posts the results of her HCG levels and ultrasound exam. Members of the message board as well as staff members from Dr. Berger’s office encourage her to follow the early pregnancy protocol that Dr. Berger recommends his patients follow once they have a positive pregnancy test. Not only does Dr. Berger give out very detailed information regarding tubal reversal surgery, he also educates his patients about early pregnancy monitoring once they get a positive pregnancy test so that they can determine at the earliest point where the pregnancy is located. Dr. Berger’s care and devotion to his patients is just one reason that women from all over the US and other countries choose to have him perform their tubal reversal procedure.
