Reviews
Warning to all men. They are more than happy to take your money to run tests on you. But they will not see male patients nor will they explain your testing and proceed to leave it up to your PCP to do the hard work. Future male customers beware
I thought it would be okay to go here because I was not needing extensive care -- but please do not make this mistake. Do not waste your time. All of the other reviews are very accurate in how they describe the experience. Rude. Insensitive. Dismissive. Pushy. Waste of time. I never do reviews -- but with something as precious as this? Do. Not. Go. Here.
Absolutely no signs. If you don't know where to go, you're gonna do like me and have to just go into a random building and ask for directions
Don’t go there. 4 rounds of ivf without proper testing or monitoring ( no testing at all not a single lab test) The doctor is nonverbal he has a huge communication issue. Imagine 4 cycles of ivf without any lab testing and every time i questioned that he will reply with the new studies recommended no lab testing no hormones monitoring! Im the one to blame i should’ve left and not retuned back since my first appointment when he got excited when i said im here for ivf so he through the folder on the floor and rushed out to bring me a copy of what i start calling worksheets of instructions. They will tell you nothing but an outdated copy of a worksheet for every cycle. I kept going back because i felt i want to give my embryos a chance and didn’t trust the quality of the lab to transfer my embryos to a different clinic. The lab is severely outdated the lab tech/ embryologist lives in Michigan and she’s only there one week a month!. No human kindness from the doctor or the nurse. I can’t understand how this place is still open. Worst experience ever I won’t recommend this doctor to my worse enemies. At my third transfer im very sure it wasn’t even in my uterus he took forever and was nervous and i felt the fluid on my thigh. I cant forgive myself for wasting my time and 15 eggs at this clinic. He never even discussed with me why the ivf cycles were failing. Never even suggested a different plan or a specific plan for me nothing Not professional
please don't go here. the nursing staff AND the doctor were rude and did not show compassion towards my situation in any regard at ANY OF MY APPOINTMENTS. when i went for the transvaginal ultrasound, the doctor didn't even speak to me before he shoved the probe inside me and JERKED it around so much it hurt. when it was over, neither him or the nurse said anything to me except, "get dressed." I wish this was an exaggeration. I teared up because I felt so violated and disrespected. there is a list of things i hated about my experience here. no woman or person deserves to be treated with such insensitivity.
