You know this is a very interesting question because despite what most of us know as "fact" your doctor has told you something else. What you need to do, and I hope you will, is get a thorough explanation from the doctor who performed the surgery, and if he or she cannot, take your medical records including the surgical report to an OB-Gyn and get a definitive answer. Hope you'll let me know what you find out - I'm sure we would all be very interested.
Well technically no you can't, not in the traditional sense anyway.
During ovulation the egg travels down the fallopian tube being fertilized on the way before it enters the uterus and implants itself. Ectopic as you know is where the fertilized egg implants into the tube which is very bad.
With your tubes being removed (and I assume the uterine side tied off) then that particular part can't happen.. No matter though :o)
You could still have your egg's harvested I suppose, not 100% sure how they'd go about it. My guess would have to be through laproscopic surgery then IVF to implantation.
Ask your doc for more details.

I had my tubes remove due to an ectopic pregnancy, how can I tell if I still have my ovaries, can I still have a baby, what is sperm insemination.
