Vasectomy clinics in the Australian Capital Territory

Canberra is the ACT’s only city, with 4 verified providers. Published out-of-pocket prices run $522–$950 after the $233.90 Medicare rebate (checked Aug 2026), and there’s no meaningful public option — men in the ACT self-fund and claim the rebate.

The card below links to our full Canberra guide: every verified provider, what each charges, techniques, and how to book. The lowest published price is $522 out of pocket at the Canberra Vasectomy Clinic in Greenway; hospital-based options with sedation cost more, up to about $950.

Booking is straightforward — the dedicated clinics take direct bookings with no GP referral, and no-scalpel under local anaesthetic is the standard. Canberra’s compact size means most men can get a consult and procedure within a few weeks. NSW residents nearby (Queanbeyan, Yass, Goulburn) use the same clinics; the Medicare rebate works the same way.

The public system in the ACT: no meaningful option

There is no routine publicly funded vasectomy program through Canberra Health Services. Unlike SA, there’s no category and no waitlist to join — men in the ACT pay privately and claim the $233.90 Medicare rebate (MBS item 37623).

Sexual Health & Family Planning ACT (SHFPACT, in Canberra City) doesn’t perform vasectomies, but it publishes a plain-English vasectomy factsheet and can advise on providers if you want to talk it through before booking. For prices and providers, start with the Canberra page below.
