Sterilization Procedure Moves Toward Frederick Use
A Johns Hopkins sterilization report describes a painless, scarless operation akin to a tonsillectomy or vasectomy. A Frederick woman traveling to Baltimore spoke of four to six hour stay, minimal recovery, and no obvious signs to others, aside from two abdominal band aids. She noted costs may exceed initial estimates, with total around 505 dollars, and predicted Frederick adoption within months if local doctors train. The hospital weighs equipment costs and staff needs, aiming for possible one night stay and higher local price due to no resident staff.
