The young lady…Absolutely shockingly rude treatment from the front staff and billing staff. Fertility is a very sensitive circumstance it can also be very confusing to navigate. The young lady at the front desk seemed to have zero interest in answering my questions. The woman in billing told me to basically find another fertility clinic to help me. And so I shall. If you don't want to help people, then find another job.Very quick. Staff was nice and very informative. Nice clean business. Nice area. 10/10. Everyone was so nice. It was my first time there. And I love it.I recently called this fertility clinic to schedule an HSG test as a new patient, and unfortunately my experience was very disappointing.

I was placed on hold for over 25 minutes, and when I finally spoke with a representative, she was very rude and unhelpful. My questions were not answered, and the interaction felt aggressive rather than welcoming. Starting the fertility journey can already feel stressful and emotional, so having a negative first impression like this was upsetting. I hope the clinic works on improving their customer service and patient communication, especially for new patients seeking guidance and support.I have had virtual consultations with four different clinics.

This is the only one that billed my insurance provider for a in-person visit with an ultrasound even though none of that happened. It left me with a large co-pay that my other consultations didn't. CCRM's billing is reported in several IVF groups as being the worst and it has already proven to be true for me. I chose another clinic with better billing practices. This journey is challenging and costly enough. No need to add fraudulent billing practices to the experience!It's been over a week and I've received no results on anything.

I'm getting bounced around to different medical offices and can't get a clear answer. When I had my appointment I received very little guidance on anything and it felt extremely cold. This has been one of the worst medical experiences of my life and I'd love to actually get some lab results at least.Walking into my fertility journey, I carried so much fear and vulnerability.

From the very beginning, Dr. Owen made me feel seen, heard, and truly understood. Her compassion and dedication gave me a sense of peace I didn’t expect to feel during such an emotional time. She didn’t just guide me medically—she supported me with genuine care and humanity every step of the way. I am endlessly grateful to Dr. Owen, Nurse Michelle, and the entire team at CCRM. They treated me with kindness, patience, and respect throughout the entire process, and their support meant more to me than words can express. If you’re looking for a fertility clinic where the team truly cares about their patients, I wholeheartedly recommend CCRM.I don’t recommend this clinic.

More often than not, it’s hard to get in touch with someone to get answers. Getting responses back using their app seems hit or miss. Calling them results in someone answering or getting a callback maybe 1 in 8 times. They don’t disclose their prices or anything financial unless you repeatedly pester them. They essentially give you a price to pay without any explanation of what it includes. When you ask them what the absolute total cost of something will be, they conveniently “forget” about multiple things that of course you must pay later. So your total ends up WAY over what you were told in the beginning it would be, making it impossible to budget. They also assumed what my insurance would cover instead of actually checking. So be prepared to be the middle person between them and your insurance the entire time, costing you hours on the phone between the two for days on end. Their long responses and slow action have further cost me multiple months in being able to start IVF cycles. Be prepared to wait for an hour in their waiting room for a 2 minute blood draw and a 4 minute ultrasound, which really adds up when you have to go in every day or every few days. When you can actually get in touch with someone, they’re all nice; however, it really seems like they might have too many patients or not enough staff. Unfortunately, you might fall through the cracks, which makes the whole process way more stressful.Can’t say enough good things about the staff and professionalism of CCRM.

Dr. Carpinello and Dom were epically great but everyone we interacted with was kind and accommodating. We were always able to get our questions answered quickly and although billing/finance issues did happen, they were always resolved.I want to rate this 2.5, the positive rates are for the medical team.

My doctor seems efficient. The nurse responds quickly to my inquiries. The phlebotomists are great. The downside of this provider is the financial department. They are inefficient and lack communication. Also you’re not able to get an itemized bill online and need to depend them. Any other provider I can check past bills online and download itemized bill for the entire year. Really bad and poor customer service considering how costly this process is. Also would be nice if they gear their business into saving money for patients. They could reduce the out of pocket cost of services and make them in network for insurances (anesthesia, surgical site, pgta, etc.)Dealing with CCRM has been a complete nightmare. Communication is basically non-existent. There are different departments for everything and none of them communicate with each…Dealing with CCRM has been a complete nightmare. Communication is basically non-existent. There are different departments for everything and none of them communicate with each other. We were going with insurance however, they refused to send out a prior auth until cycle day 1 even though I kept insisting that they send it out ASAP. However, since they wouldn’t send it out until I report cycle day 1 it means nothing is covered until insurance responds to the prior auth submitted (which can take up to or more than 2 weeks). So basically you have the option of either paying upfront or missing that cycle and wait for insurance. CCRM stated that if we pay upfront once the prior auth is approved we would be refunded. So we decided to pay upfront. Then when my prior auth was approved, I asked for our refund. I was then told by another person that I had to wait for the claims to process before I could be refunded (they also submitted the claims wrong so that took extra time). Once I saw the claims processed, I called again for a refund. Then I was told yet again that wasn’t the case, I had to wait until my insurance paid them for the services billed then they would start the refund process. All in total this whole mess took 4 months to get a refund plus having to call them numerous times and talking to different representatives each time. Now I’m trying to request medical records. They said it can take 10-14 business days. I submitted the request on 03/02/2026. I called on 03/18/2026 and they said they had until Tuesday to upload the medical records. So I waited until Tuesday and called again. They said no we have until Wednesday but I will work on them today. It is now 03/25/2026. I called this morning and they said it was uploaded last night to the salve patient portal. I told them there has been nothing uploaded since February. They had no idea why it was not showing up and said they would call me back shortly after speaking to their manager. Still have not heard back. I then spent about an hour trying to reach someone from the medical records department and existing patient lines which resulted in no one picking up the phone. So I finally decided to try the new patient line. Surprise, surprise they of course pick up the new patient line so I was finally able to talk to a human. I was then told they were “short staffed” and that the medical records department had already left but the supervisor knew about my situation and would give me a call back. Apparently, the latest they’ll call is tomorrow. I need my medical records and for them to make anyone wait practically a whole month is unexceptable. Side note, the staff working in the Vienna office (ultrasound tech, blood work, etc) has been nothing but sweet and professional. However, dealing with all the rest has been extremely frustrating and negates the whole experience.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE AVOID CCRM if you don’t want to have a life-long struggle chasing them to correct the wrong bill!

Had a billing problem since early December, received the wrong bill (wrong service billed and bill was overcharged due to the wrong billing code + wrong provider name was on my bill). Called CCRM consistently since December trying to solve this issue on my end, but no one has ever picked my phone call from the billing department, no matter how many times I have called them. Left multiple messages in the billing department but no one ever called me back. I tried to make an detour and called the DC office, still no one has answered the phone call yet from the billing department. I made another detour hoped at least someone could help me on this matter and directed the phone call to the front desk(how desperate) - finally somebody answered and said she left a message for the billing department to see. Still, till today I haven’t heard anything back. Again, just of this week, I received another wrong bill that’s incorrectly stated a blood work that I never got at CCRM. Called again after I got the bill this week, same situation with unresponsive staff. I guess I’ll have to take a trip to the clinic to solve this issue.🙂 And also please don’t even bother to reply a robotic -like official message that means nothing to help the patients solving the problem at all and just send to every low rating. SOLVE THE ACTUAL PROBLEMS, OK? 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮I’m so grateful to Dr. Payson and the entire team at CCRM for helping me conceive my beautiful daughter through IVF.

From the very first appointment, Dr. Payson’s calming presence made such a difference. He is incredibly cool, collected, and reassuring — exactly what you need during such an emotional process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and always made me feel supported and heard. The whole clinic staff was compassionate and professional every step of the way. Thanks to their care and expertise, I now have the greatest gift of my life. I can’t recommend Dr. Payson highly enough!I want to start off by saying that Dr. Payson and the medical staff have been nothing short of wonderful. I can’t say enough positive things about nurse Meghan as well. She always…I want to start off by saying that Dr. Payson and the medical staff have been nothing short of wonderful. I can’t say enough positive things about nurse Meghan as well. She always responds immediately and is such a great help. Dr. Payson took time to understand my infertility journey and put thought into a tailored protocol for my situation, which resulted in a healthy embryo after two failed egg retrievals at SGF. However, I’ve never experienced such stress from the admin support teams. The authorization and billing teams feel impossible. At SGF, my auth was submitted within 1-2 days. Here, it took weeks to see it get submitted and I had to keep trying to follow up to get a status update because I didn’t get notified when it was submitted. I was on a tight timeline, so this caused a great deal of stress. Additionally, getting messages when money is due has not been a problem — quick and timely. But, as soon as you have questions or issues, it’s like pulling teeth to get support, which is often dismissive. Infertility is stressful enough as it is and to experience such unnecessary additional stress from poor customer service only makes infertility outcomes worse. As much as I appreciate the wonderful medical care I’ve been getting, I can’t recommend this clinic for treatment because of the admin side. I also don’t understand why some of the elements of procedures are billed as out-of-network when the rest is in-network (the surgery room itself and the anesthesia), which has resulted in additional thousands of dollars in expenses that are easily avoided elsewhere (SGF). I switched to CCRM from SGF for the additional treatment options (growth hormones, etc.), but after these experiences, I’m afraid I will be switching back once my cycle is done and would caution anyone thinking to seek treatment here to be forewarned. It will be a rollercoaster, and you will be paying a lot more out-of-pocket for costs that can easily be avoided. I hope this review can encourage CCRM to improve its admin customer service and its out-of-network practices, because it would attract a lot more patients.CCRM has been exceptional from start to finish.

Every person I interacted with was kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure I felt comfortable and cared for. The staff is organized, reassuring, and incredibly personable — the kind of team that immediately puts you at ease the moment you walk in. Dr. Sarhan, the physician who performed my procedure had outstanding bedside manner: calm, confident, and compassionate in a way that made a stressful day feel manageable. The nurses and surgical team were just as wonderful — supportive, thoughtful, and consistently checking in to make sure I felt safe and informed. It’s rare to find a medical environment that blends expertise with such warmth, but CCRM truly does. I’m grateful for the professionalism, the humanity, and the care they showed me throughout my experience.Patients are handled like some goods on a conveyor belt, from one person to the other.

Basically the service is split into silos therefore having a personalised follow up isnt easy. I had a meeting with finance department, assurance was given that they would let me know of the insurance decision before moving forward. The medical incharge then proceeded to advise me to purchase the meds( and I did) then, insurance cover was denied! They then sent me a short message saying I will not be covered and I needed to deposit 17K or use their proposed loan servive! I had to call back several times to get an explanation of the denial! It semeed to me they care more about the money and not the patient. So I now have a minifridge of meds that I cant use. Still havent got their promised call months down the line. H I wouldnt go back there.I received treatment in the summer of 2024 and became pregnant on my first round of TI. Dr. Payson was great and I ended up becoming pregnant with triplets!

I had 2 follicles that had potential. Both of them took and one split which Dr. Payson said almost never happens (meant to be)! I delivered my boys in March of 2025 and they are happy and healthy. So thankful for CCRM for giving me my boys! 💙Our journey at this clinic didn’t start off the best.

After two failed egg retrievals, we made the difficult decision to switch doctors — and that’s when everything changed for us. Dr. Owen was truly amazing in every way. She took the time to genuinely listen and understand what we needed. She has such a caring heart and always made me feel like I was her most important patient. She carefully analyzed every result and personally called with detailed explanations, which meant so much during such an emotional process. I always felt like I was in the very best hands. Under her care, we had two successful egg retrievals, and on our first transfer, we got pregnant. We are beyond grateful — there really aren’t enough words to express how thankful we are. That said, the billing department needs significant improvement. Communication was very difficult — phone calls often went unanswered with no callbacks, and responses were typically limited to once per day. Payments were missed on their end, so I strongly recommend tracking everything carefully. Bills were also not sent promptly. Overall, while the administrative side was frustrating, Dr. Owen made all the difference in our journey, and for that we will always be thankful.Everyone there was so great and friendly. It felt like a warm welcoming environment. Not one awkward or uncomfortable moment. They answered any question I had.I absolutely love Dr. Owen.

I began seeing her in 2020, and have since had an IUI, two rounds of IVF, and two embryo transfers as her patient. She is incredibly compassionate, knowledgeable, and consistently grounding during such an uncertain and emotional process. I truly believe we wouldn’t have had success without her. She is my favorite doctor I’ve ever had.Where to begin? Chronic overbooking/understaffing leading to incredibly long waits for late and superficial office visits. Chronic use of leverage on. The financial side. They say…Where to begin? Chronic overbooking/understaffing leading to incredibly long waits for late and superficial office visits. Chronic use of leverage on. The financial side. They say they take your insurance and then do, up until a few days before your egg retrieval. Absolutely refused not perform the egg retrieval unless I paid out of pocket, despite getting on the phone with the insurance company in their office, admitting they were an in-network provider and the retrieval was a covered service. Basically, a shake down. After a YEAR insisting my emergency cesarean scar “looked good” when I asked about it EVERY appointment, and a failed FET where my cesarean “calcification” kept causing problems, Carter Owen decided I needed a surgical repair of the cesarean scar and a six month recovery. Said it was a good catch because that was “tricky” and I was lucky to have had early miscarriages because anything past 12 weeks would have ruptured the cesarean scar. Oh, the sonograms monitoring the miscarriages were charged as “out-of-network” again. The doctor I switched to agreed the miscarriages were indeed a blessing because no OB would take a pregnancy in that condition. The surgeon also said I was not the first one of Carter Owen’s patients who had come to him after a year of having her concerns ignored only to turn out to be completely correct. Shady Grove admin never gave me a problem with insurance and the doctors actually listened. No reason to burn your money at CCRM.It’s taken me a couple years to write this review because I’m so angry and shaken by this whole experience. Here’s a very abridged version. I came to CCRM (usually saw Dr.…It’s taken me a couple years to write this review because I’m so angry and shaken by this whole experience. Here’s a very abridged version. I came to CCRM (usually saw Dr. Martini) with “unexplained fertility.” We transferred all the paperwork, including my husband’s initial testing. No one raised any flags. After I underwent years of treatments - multiple egg retrievals that died when we tried to make embryos - she advised he should get tested for a varicocele, a common and easily treatable vascular condition that’s associated with infertility. We told them he had the condition - had been diagnosed 15 years ago - but no one had ever asked. That’s when she informed is that his initial testing showed a sperm morphology of 3…below the normal range of 4-14 and a clear red flag. Only then did they refer us to a urologist. He got minor surgery to correct the varicocele, and we got pregnant on our own - first try. (Dr. Martini’s response when I begged for an explanation was literally, “Well, you might have ended up needing IVF anyway.” Not the point. And no, we didn’t.) His urologist couldn’t understand why they hadn’t referred us to him at the outset - said it was inexplicable and we were the “poster children” for starting with a urologist. Of course if they had referred us at the outset, they wouldn’t have gotten the thousands upon thousands of dollars we paid them for treatment and surgeries and supplements and extra shots that were never going to work. To cap off this horrific experience, we learned this week that - contrary to what they told us at the time and despite his condition - we actually did have an embryo in storage this whole time along with my eggs. First we were learning of this, three years later. Honestly I’m skeptical it’s even ours. I’m grateful IVF exists for all the people who need it, but the negligence and carelessness and gaslighting I experienced throughout this process has been one of the worst experiences of my life.I’ve gone back and forth about posting this, but I feel it’s important to share my experience so others can be aware of the practices I encountered at CCRM. Infertility is already…I’ve gone back and forth about posting this, but I feel it’s important to share my experience so others can be aware of the practices I encountered at CCRM. Infertility is already heartbreaking—and my time at CCRM made that journey significantly worse. From the very beginning, I felt unheard and dismissed. After my initial appointment, I left in tears. Despite bringing detailed records and history, the doctor didn’t review them and even asked, “So why are you here?” It was clear I wasn’t being taken seriously. -I often waited 2–3 days for a response from my nurse, which is unacceptable when timing is crucial. -I saw multiple providers and received completely contradictory statements—from “you don’t need fertility treatment” to “you should consider adoption.” -I repeatedly expressed concerns about the possibility of endometriosis and was told “you don’t have it” every time. After leaving CCRM and transferring to SGF, I had laparoscopic surgery, and it confirmed that I did have endometriosis. -When I informed the nursing staff I was leaving CCRM, only then did someone suddenly mention, literally, “Oh, by the way, your ovary is stuck—you should get that looked at.” -My IUI protocol never changed across three cycles—same medication dose, same timing—despite me asking about adjustments. I’m not a doctor, but even I could see the timing “wasn’t mathing.” CCRM instructed me to trigger 20 hours before the IUI, while telling me washed sperm live for about 8 hours. This means sperm would likely lose viability around 28 hours post-trigger, yet ovulation generally occurs around 36 hours post-trigger. In other words, the sperm could be dying before ovulation even happened. When I transferred to SGF, the timing and protocol were completely different—and we got pregnant on the first IUI. Billing was consistently frustrating and, in my experience, extremely unclear. I could not get a response from the front desk or billing unless I threatened legal action. I later discovered I was owed a refund only because I went in person. It then took four months to receive it because they “forgot” to issue it. Transferring my records to SGF took two weeks, which added even more delays. Blood-draw appointments often ran 45 minutes late or more. The office itself felt bleak—gray and cold, with no warmth or life to it. They also allowed children in the waiting room, which can be very painful for patients going through infertility. At times, it felt more like a playroom than a medical clinic. I also requested to not have a certain nurse (which, I learned from other patients, this was common against her). My nurse said "absouletly- we will note that on your record." Guess who had THAT nurse 2 more times I was told they required six IUIs before considering IVF, which felt arbitrary and financially driven. After three unsuccessful IUIs, I expected reevaluation, adjustments, or deeper investigation—none occurred. Overall, I felt they cared more about money than truly helping patients through a vulnerable medical experience. After transferring to SGF, I immediately felt listened to. My doctor there believed my symptoms, helped expedite my larp. surgery, and adjusted my treatment plan. We conceived on our first IUI at SGF—something I don’t believe would ever have happened under CCRM’s protocols. This was my experience, and I hope it helps others make informed decisions about their care. If you’re struggling with infertility, you deserve a clinic that listens, believes you, and treats you with compassion—not one that makes an already unbearable process even harder. The one star is for/because of Mark. The only happy and positive face at that clinic.I dont even know where to start, Dr. Payson and staff gets a 5 star but i dont know how this happened, my embryo was lost.

Has anyone ever looked forward to their 7:00am sono and bloodwork appointments? I have! The staff, the nurses, the surgical unit, and the doctors have been supportive beyond measure. Dr. Owen! I could not have done any of this without her. She was best at explaining complex fertility concepts and making me feel at ease. I had full trust in her every step of the way. She is truly amazing! To her, you are not just a number. She tailors her treatment every single cycle and makes adjustments as she sees fit. She encourages, she supports, and she brightens your day! I love her!Dr. Payson seems wonderful but as others noted below, the staff is awful and unprofessional.

They had us transfer not one but two mistested embryos, that should have never been graded as 6AA. Both transfers had a chromosome abnormality that should have been flagged in testing. Also, their service at this clinic is awful.

Our first transfer at CCRM Nova resulted in our healthy one-year-old. I’m currently 24 weeks pregnant with our second transfer, and so far this has been another healthy pregnancy without complications. We still have 6 embryos remaining for the future. Previously, we were at Shady Grove and experienced 3 failed transfers. We weren’t sure if we would ever become parents, but CCRM made our dream of parenthood come true. My pregnancies have been uncomplicated, and my babies have been 100% healthy. A special shoutout to Dr. Owen, Nurse Sydney, and Phlebotomist Mark.Requested for a call back and was met with a paragraph long excuse.

Eventually they called back, but it took unpleasant exchanges on their chat platform. I am only at CCRM, because I am neck deep in treatment. If I could go back in time, then I would 100% pass. From phone staff to nurses, they just get smart and leave you feeling helpless, which unfortunately is how this process has been for me, but does not have to be for you. Patients’ experiences, feelings, and concerns are valid, always, and the support they are committed to delivering is sadly not what I have received. Very arms length and poor communication.Extremely Disappointed with the Lack of Communication and Follow-Up I strongly advise others to take the low ratings seriously.

I had tests done several weeks ago, yet no one ever scheduled a follow-up appointment. Despite leaving multiple phone messages and sending two messages through the patient portal, I have received no response. I am now receiving lab bills without access to my results. This level of disregard for patient communication and basic follow-up is unacceptable.I was blessed by Dr. Payson, Mark (best phlebotomist ever), and the entire lab/nursing staff.

As other patients have noted, their billing department was a disaster (and this was 5 years ago), but the staff was caring and compassionate overall. The great: - Dr. Payson was very experienced, listened to my concerns and acted on them. During my third cycle, he made a difficult choice for me that later I really came to appreciate because he could see objectively and I couldn’t. During my fourth cycle, we went over the data and realized I didn’t have a good shot, so we cancelled and started all over again—this time with a cycle that actually worked! - As mentioned, the phlebotomist was absolutely amazing. - The lab staff kindly worked with me to transport my embryos to another practice when my new insurance refused to work with CCRM. The not so great: - As stated above, I reluctantly switched practices after my last round of egg retrieval and embryo fertilization. At this point, I had had 2 failed implantations. The new doctor demonstrated incredible care and attention to detail that I didn’t see at CCRM. I think those details contributed to a successful implantation of the embryos CCRM grew for me. - CCRM’s lab policies weren’t very clear but in fairness, they gave me opportunities to ask questions. I just didn’t know what I didn’t know! The best: I now have the cutest toddler and am thankful that Dr. Payson’s perseverance helped me get to where I am today.We had significant treatment delays to our IVF cycle when we switched from SGF in December. We were interested in coming to CCRM for their lab and their experience with repeated…We had significant treatment delays to our IVF cycle when we switched from SGF in December. We were interested in coming to CCRM for their lab and their experience with repeated treatment failures and difficult cases, which we unfortunately have. Dr. Owen is amazing and we also loved our nurses. All clinical staff is thoughtful, helpful, and took the time to explain things thoroughly, including what would be changing about our protocol and why, and why we had experience repeated failures. We were excited and hopeful to begin treatment, relieved that we can possibly see success with an already sensitive, stressful, and disheartening process. This was in January. Come May, despite all testing and all other requirements met, we had no follow up from the front desk/financial team about next steps. We repeated reached out to via phone, voicemail, and portal (their portal is astoundingly terrible), only to receive significantly delayed responses or none at all. The biggest issue was lack of transparency around billing. They market and advertise as an INN facility with our insurance (which shockingly has robust coverage for IVF, and we know this is not the norm) among other commercial insurance plans. Yet, they actually have a completely separate billing structure that they use for essentially the more expensive claims like egg retrieval, PGT-A testing, and anesthesia that is contracted out to other providers in the area—not in-house. None of this is billed to insurance, nor is discussed until payment is due, to the tune of thousands completely out of pocket, even for people who have insurance coverage for these procedures. This portion of treatment is ENTIRELY OON for ALL patients which is ethically dubious at best. To make matters worse, since this portion of CCRM operates as an OON provider, there are certain rules and regulations they must follow to remain complainant, as stated in the No Surprises Act of 2022. As an OON healthcare provider myself, when I repeatedly informed them of this, and our rights as patients, including requesting a Good Faith Estimate (required automatically by law, and within a specific timeframe) they seemed confused and produced a document that was noncompliant and incorrect. To mention, they also failed to produce this document within the legally required timeline after my third request. The Good Faith Estimate, again, is required when the treatment plan is outlined and as part of the informed consent process. Unfortunately, by the time this was discovered, we lost over 6 months and had to change to another clinic as we could not continue to wait, and also could not justify paying exorbitant OOP prices when our insurance covers all of these procedures in full. We went in initially extremely hopeful and relieved, excited to work with Dr. Owen and her team. We left feeling exceedingly frustrated, stressed, discouraged, and like we are running out of options—which we unfortunately are.My experience with CCRM in Vienna was defined by poor communication, lack of transparency, and delays that could have been avoided with basic follow-through.

The clinical staff are amazing. The Phlebotomist is an absolute gem, the nurses always went above and beyond and Dr. Payson made our dreams come true. The lab is amazing and the embryologists deserve their own recognition for taking such great care of our little embryos. We are forever grateful for how easy CCRM made the appointments for us and the messaging portal was a huge convenience to ask questions and keep track of everything.

From the beginning I have felt like the staff at CCRM have re-humanized the experience of going through infertility. To be heard and validated after feeling like just a number on a stats page has put me at ease. Dr Carter Owen and the nursing staff have walked me through all the options and processes and continue to answer any questions along the way. They've also proven very effective as after 20 months of trying, I only needed a few at CCRM to get a positive pregnancy test. However, I would have rated them 5 stars regardless of the outcome because of my experience.I was a patient with CCRM from June 2022 until April 2024.

I wished she would be more present during my procedures. During my first IUI, I thought she would be present. Instead, it was a male doctor, which I wasn't expecting and that made me panic a bit. Thankfully my husband was there...always takes time to explain everything carefully and she has good bedside manners.When we first met with Dr. Payson for our first pregnancy, I was extremely anxious and overwhelmed with the fertility process and all the advice and information out there. He…When we first met with Dr. Payson for our first pregnancy, I was extremely anxious and overwhelmed with the fertility process and all the advice and information out there.

She was available, listened to my concerns and provided appropriate follow-up, adjusted the treatment as per my suggestions, was there at critical moments (e.g. embryo transfer) even if it wasn't her working day actually. She continued to supervise my pregnancy on a weekly basis for up to 12 weeks until I was ready to move to another OBGYN.

Was very engaged throughout the entire process...He praised the quality of CCRM's lab. We'll never really know for sure obviously why CCRM worked and Shady Grove didn't, but I can say CCRM delivered for us after one go around and Shady Grove did not...My advice: don't mess around.

I switched to Dr Payson after 4 failed IUIs with Letrozole at a different clinic. We quickly decided to do IVF with standard treatment protocols. ... Dr Payson was always the one to call with treatment updates and saw me for all of my ultrasounds through the retrieval. We retrieved 11 eggs, all were mature but unfortunately only 1 made it to Day 6 blastocyst. He is concerned I may have an egg quality issue and we have reviewed changes we may make in future cycles because of this.Dr. Payson gets to know all his patients, he knew what my husband and I did, our history, and our plans...We sought fertility treatment after 2 miscarriages and it was found out…Dr. Payson gets to know all his patients, he knew what my husband and I did, our history, and our plans...We sought fertility treatment after 2 miscarriages and it was found out early on that my husband and I were both carriers for the same genetic disease (Dr. Payson said this is very rare) so he recommended IVF. Although the process took a little time (had to build a probe for our genetic condition prior to retrieval) the staff at CCRM kept in touch throughout the whole process answering all my questionsDr. Owen cared about me and achieving a viable pregnancy.

He is great at giving options based on new research and having a real discussion with you to weigh the options on how we should proceed...He was willing to entertain my outside research and discuss what may or may not be a good option given my background and past treatments. With Dr. Payson I've always felt like I've had a true partner in my IVF journey.Dr. Owen truly cares. She loves her work and is also just a good human.

Being the best at what she does is important to her, and when she calls with good or bad results, it feels like she is going through it with you. You see her at almost every monitoring appointment where she herself does the ultrasound (very different than most places). She tries to do the retrievals and transfers for her patients as well.Dr. Moragianni had an individualized treatment plan for us.

She was extremely caring, available and accommodating...I had my egg retrieval in December of 2019. We had fantastic results. Better than we could have imagined. We yielded 4 chromosomally normal embryos. 2 girls and 2 boys. On February 12th 2020 we had our top graded embryo transfered. It was successful. I'm currently 13.5 weeks pregnant with a girl. We are so grateful for Dr. Moragianni. She always met us with a smile and her sense of humor was fantastic! I never left with unanswered questions or doubt.

He would not entertain putting in more due to the risk of multiples...took me through a power point from a talk he does on genetic testing's efficacy when I was on the fence about proceeding...he was open to hearing me out about what protocol worked better for me previously and completely switched things up in the second round. From there, we had a very successful retrieval which ultimately resulted in a successful transfer and resulting pregnancy.After being at a large clinic where I was most definitely just a number, moving to Dr. Moragianni was truly a blessing.

I saw her at every visit, she made all of the phone calls herself, she got me results I could only dream of. Though I never got to have my success with her, I truly believe that is only because she left the clinic before it happened...She was willing to change course when things didn't initially work as we planned.I traveled across a few states to see Dr. Moragianni...I had read reviews that indicated that she had helped people with failed transfers. I appreciated that she had fully…I traveled across a few states to see Dr. Moragianni...I had read reviews that indicated that she had helped people with failed transfers. I appreciated that she had fully reviewed our case when we met with her for the first time. She had ideas of what to do differently and that gave me hope. While she had her own opinions on what we should do, she did allow me to direct my own treatment in certain ways (ex: to forgo ICSI).He has a great sense of humor the the best bedside manner.

As the director of the practice, you can tell his time is constrained and sometimes rushed. He does a good job of discussing the statistics and potential outcomes of each option. I do think he needs to do a better job of acknowledging all fertility options and not just actively steer people toward the IVF option - the more expensive option. IUI is a totally viable option for some, and a good first-line treatment, he made it seem like a waste of money. Which may be true, but it's worth a shot for couples with unexplained infertility.She [Vasiliki Moragianni] is very knowledgeable about the fertility process, has a kind manner and way of presenting information...took the time to review my prior medical records…She [Vasiliki Moragianni] is very knowledgeable about the fertility process, has a kind manner and way of presenting information...took the time to review my prior medical records with me and explain everything...While all the information has not been exactly what I was hoping to or wanted to hear I appreciate her honest but kind approach...Dr. Moragianni performed numerous tests, lots of bloodwork and when the results were in, both my husband and I were very pleased to hear the results and learn everything was fine.…Dr. Moragianni performed numerous tests, lots of bloodwork and when the results were in, both my husband and I were very pleased to hear the results and learn everything was fine.

She brings some lighthearted humor to the whole process, which helps with stress. I have never had difficulty in setting up consultations to see her during my treatment cycles when I needed them.... I suffer from lean PCOS, so Dr. Moragianni started me on Letrozole with Ovidrel trigger shots for several TI cycles. These cycles all produced appropriate follicles, but I unfortunately did not conceive. I requested to move straight to IVFShe [Dr. Moragianni] is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and thorough.

Did not have a condescending attitude like my previous provider. Made me feel comfortable choosing to go with her and the clinic for IVF. I trust her 100%.... Based on my age and ovarian reserve, I was only given the option to transfer one embryo because the chances of success are so high. I believe this is the right decision for the safety of the mother and potential baby.Dr. Payson can sometimes need a minute to "reset" and remember my exact case when he comes in the exam room, but once he does he's fully engaged and on top of every detail.

His initial projections for me were slightly optimistic - it took us two cycles to reach what he hoped to accomplish in the first cycle - but he's been open about his thinking/planning/adjusting for my cycles throughout and willing to take my personal weighing of risks/benefitsDr Payson is knowledgeable. He provides thorough explanations. His manner is patient and attentive. I went to him for a consultation and my experience was a very positive one...I…Dr Payson is knowledgeable. He provides thorough explanations. His manner is patient and attentive. I went to him for a consultation and my experience was a very positive one...I froze my eggs five years ago. Based on my testing, Dr Payson recommended trying IVF with my current eggs before using the frozen ones because if the frozen ones were not successful, It would be several months later and the chance of success with my current eggs could be reduced.Doctor [Dr. Moragianni] was very empathetic. She even cried with my wife...She was available, and attentive to our questions throughout the whole process...My wife ultimately…Doctor [Dr. Moragianni] was very empathetic. She even cried with my wife...She was available, and attentive to our questions throughout the whole process...My wife ultimately chose to do a “final closure” round with Dr. Moragianni, and even though it was not successful, we both really appreciated her empathy, care, and attention to detail. We ended going the donor route, and had our donor cycle at CCRM VA with Dr. M. We were fortunate that we were successful on the first transfer. Dr. M was very empathetic and scientific with her approach. We wondered about doing an ERA during our cycles, and Dr. M presented the evidence behind it and why she didn’t think it was right in our case, which we really appreciatedIf you have a harder case or unique issues I'd really encourage you to seek out a second opinion here. I have felt in very good hands and like this process was made possible for…If you have a harder case or unique issues I'd really encourage you to seek out a second opinion here. I have felt in very good hands and like this process was made possible for me because of Dr. Payson and CCRM...This is a very anti cookie cutter type clinic. Also when I was initially offered Follistim but found Gonal-F would be cheaper out of pocket the nurse was quick to allow me to change which was nice.Enjoy a vastly different experience with her [Dr. Moragianni]...as your trusted advisor, as your coach and as a caring professional...Our baby girl was born in August and we are…Enjoy a vastly different experience with her [Dr. Moragianni]...as your trusted advisor, as your coach and as a caring professional...Our baby girl was born in August and we are overflowing with deep gratitude for all Dr. M did to bring her into this world... I will also add that as the primary patient, I am a bit high maintenance...lots of questions, lots of worries and a total wimp with medical procedures. Dr. M was so patient with me and used her charming personality to relax me and calm me down during some of the stressful episodes of our journey. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Moragianni to anyone trying to conceive via IVF. I believe our relationship with her and her expertise and knowledge was instrumental to our success.Who you would meet
