I'm responding to my earlier post regarding the response that was sent back. It has nothing to do w HIPPA; it was my experience with the things that could possibly go wrong not told upfront. A doctor should be honest, not speak about his record producing numbers, be available to patients when they are confused as to why it didn't work (we had embryos), and also not be condescending because we asked for a meeting after the first round to understand more why. It's sad. This is such a hard thing to go through; especially not knowing potential outcomes. I would call the number you sent over last and discuss; but what resolution would come out of it? I trusted the Dr, and I felt like we didn't get told the whole story and spent almost 100,000$. I understand it may not work for everyone, but I did not understand the possibilities of not implanting.

We moved from CCRM (1 star) to Conceptions (4 star) and were really happy we did. CCRM was a private equity-owned IVF factory. CCRM waited months into the process to let us know the costs. Not only were Conceptions' prices lower than CCRM, but Conceptions was really clear from day 1 about costs. All of these clinics take on more clients than they should. But, Conceptions offered much more personalized service than CCRM. I feel like everyone knew my name and cared about my success. The embryologists, doctors and nurses were all excellent. They are very LGBTQ friendly. The only thing that prevents 5 stars is that they take on too many clients, so it can take 2+ months to get and appointment with the doctor or to have the next procedure you need. In the meantime, you're only getting older. Relatedly, I also felt like nobody explained to me that your first IVF often needs to be followed by an immediate second round within the same cycle to be successful. If you wait to get advice from the doctor, it is too late to take advantage of doing two IVF retrievals in one cycle. By the time I realized this was an option it was a real rush to get my insurance to approve the second cycle in time. But, I'm glad I did because the second round was the charm. I kind of had to ask a lot of questions and be my own advocate. I think this relates back to them being distracted by too many clients.

Dr. Aimee Ferrandino was absolutely amazing. I had to get my left falopian tube removed and she was very involved every step of the way. She made me feel very comfortable and informed and ultimately my surgery went very well considering all the factors. Conceptions found a wonderful doctor and I can't recommend her enough.
