 |  | .gif) |  | Article in the Houston Chronicle discussed the "No-Scalpel Vasectomy" and the fact that Dr. Mobley is offering this new procedure for men requesting vasectomy. It had been developed in China many years before, and only recently had the technique been taught to American urologists. The article was read by Dan Patrick, president of KSEV radio, and his wife Jan, who had been encouraging Danto have a vasectomy. At the time, Dan Patrick had a 3-hour sports show in the mornings on KSEV. Dan calls Dr. Mobley to schedule a vasectomy. A couple of days later Dan calls to talk to Dr. Mobley about doing his vasectomy live on the morning sports show. Dr. Mobley thinks this over for a couple of days and says O.K. Dan felt that if he were to do his morning sports show while simultaneously receiving a vasectomy it would show the public how easy this procedure is, and encourage more men to do the same. |  | Dan began to mention on his show that his vasectomy was scheduled live on August 7. Public interest began to increase daily.
 |  |  |  | Dan arrives at Dr. Mobley’s office a little before 6 a.m. with Chuck, the engineer to set up the show. The media, written and broadcast filter into the office as well. The vasectomy was done in the 7 O’clock hour. Dan becomes an immediate celebrity, worldwide for a day.
 |  | | |  |  |  |  | At the time there was no radio medical show in Houston. Dan asks Dr. Mobley if he would like to do one. Eventually a once-a-week spot on Friday is decided upon. Dr. Mobley, Dan, and Bob Bryant, then CEO of then Memorial City Medical Center meet to discuss sponsorship of the program. | The first show aired early in the spring of 1992. After about 3 shows, Dr. Mobley is hooked and enjoying the opportunity to discuss medical matters with the public once a week . |  |  |  |  | Dan asks Dr. Mobley, about moving the show to a daily time slot. Dan offers to place a remote studio in Dr. Mobley’s office and the daily show begins in the 1-2 p.m. time slot. |  |  | KSEV purchases KPRC radio, and a time change seems possible. Dr. Mobley is offered the noontime slot, which he grabs, and the show has been at noon ever since. |  | |
