Listen "Is vasectomy worth it? Understanding ROI in general practice"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of HealthCert’s GP Insights podcast, Dr Raj Selvarajan (a Specialist General Practitioner and Course Director for the HealthCert Education Advanced Workshop of Non-Scalpel Vasectomy) addresses one of the most frequently asked questions he hears from colleagues considering integrating vasectomy services into their practice: Is it worth the investment?
