Reviews
Dr. Debra Schell was amazing. She was very kind, patient, and easy to talk to. She took the time to listen to all my questions and concerns and made me feel comfortable throughout the appointment. I never felt rushed, and I really appreciated her compassionate and understanding approach. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had with a doctor. Highly recommend! 😊
Dr. Schell is kind, patient and has wonderful bedside manner. She takes the time to explain everything, so you are very informed.
I have no idea how Debra Schell is a doctor or in the IVF field. No bedside manners, discouraging, poor follow-up with a very flat affect. When I think back to my IVF journey, unfortunately she comes to mind, leaving a very bitter taste. I hope she isn't allowed to ruin the experience for other women, there has to be a better on-boarding process when it comes to fertility physicians, not just someone with a degree. With the amount a negative reviews, I don't understand how she's still allowed to practice.
The clinic is a scam! Zero empathy from the doctors: Dra. Debra Schell & Dr. Eli Reshef They treat you as if they're treating you for free or doing you a favor. My experience with this clinic is the worst thing that's ever happened to me. It's an unscrupulous clinic! They only care about your money. They don't really care about you! Careful if you are looking for donor eggs or treatment with it. It suppose that the rates are very favorable because they offer good quality eggs (young people), but now, after I had 4 failed FET with donor eggs, I think it’s a fake and they lie you. They stole all our savings, and the most important: our hope!
My husband and I switched to AFCC after being unsuccessful with another clinic. Dr. Schell is an amazing doctor! She’s patient and takes her time to listen and answer all of your questions! Everyone at the Downers Grove location are kind and helpful! Thanks to Dr. Schell my husband and I welcomed our baby boy! We’re extremely grateful and blessed to be parents 💙
