So I remember you said you got yours done in Ottawa and it was really quick, pretty painless.

Was that local anesthetic or did he put you out?

Everything I read, seems to point to local freezing, but when I went for my consult, the urologist said he only does it under sedation.

So I basically said I wasn't comfortable with that, wanted local, and he said he doesn't do it that way, so find a different urologist. So I walked out. Guy was a jerk anyhow and the fact he wanted to sedate me made me think he maybe didn't do many per year. Just want to make sure I'm not wrong - that usually it is local anesthetic.

Any other tips? I've asked to go see a person that apparently does a bunch of them about 40 minutes away. Ottawa is out of the question, too far, my wife would kill me if I told her I was driving 5 hours for this procedure lol.
