It’s a small clinic but THIS is where you will get the personalized attention that you deserve. I want to start with a quick story of another clinic we went to - we our fertility journey in MA at Boston IVF. They’re a HUGE company with multiple offices - everything’s super fancy looking - thought we would be in good hands. Wrong! They were so quick to shuffle us out of meetings with the doctor, it was impossible to reach anyone on the phone, we barely knew what was going on the entire time and ended our first egg retrieval with only 6 eggs and none making it to the blast stage. After this failed retrieval we still hadn’t gotten good answers from the doctor and were so confused. I was devastated. We moved to NY and chose Hudson Valley Fertility for our next try at an egg retrieval and my experience here was the complete opposite of what happened in MA - sure the office is smaller and not as fancy, but I have gotten so much attention, answers, and help from Dr. Levine and his staff, I am SO incredibly grateful to have changed to HVF! Dr. Levine and his staff have taken the time to answer millions of my questions with such patience, and have given me a lot of amazing advice on what to do and change about my routines. We just got results from our first egg retrieval with them and had 6 blasts ready to go for testing - and ended up with 1 embryo that might become our little miracle in the future! We’re going for one more egg retrieval and I’m super hopeful this time around. Thank you so much to all of the staff here for helping us make our dreams come true, I know we wouldn’t be where we our with our fertility journey without you!!!Fertility clinic

From the moment the phone was answered, the interaction felt more focused on insurance and scheduling than on understanding why I was calling. As I began to explain my situation, the first question I was asked was about my insurance. After being placed on hold, the receptionist returned and seemed primarily focused on booking an appointment rather than answering the questions I had as a prospective patient. This was my first time ever contacting a fertility clinic, and because I understand every office has its own process, I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt throughout the conversation. However, I struggled to get my questions answered and was never provided with information about the providers available at the practice. I later learned they only have a male provider, which is not something I personally feel comfortable with and would have been helpful to know upfront. Most importantly, the overall interaction felt rushed, impersonal, and somewhat forced. It left me with the impression that my insurance coverage was of greater interest than my concerns as a potential patient. For individuals and couples trying to conceive, making that first phone call to a fertility clinic can be incredibly overwhelming, emotional, and mentally taxing. A little compassion and patience can go a long way. After this call, I contacted another fertility clinic in the area and had a completely different experience. The staff was welcoming, informative, and made me feel comfortable asking questions all before asking about my insurance. The contrast between the two interactions was striking. What makes this experience even more disappointing is that several people had recommended Hudson Valley Fertility to me and my husband with positive experiences. Because of those recommendations, I was hopeful and excited to reach out. Instead, I left the conversation feeling intimidated, saddened, and discouraged. While I understand that one phone call does not necessarily reflect the quality of medical care provided, first impressions matter especially in a field where patients are often navigating an emotional and vulnerable journey.Absolutely worst experience.

When in looking for answers and was pused into feeling like I had no other options other than ivf. Dr. Levine only meets with you briefly and does not listen to any concerns you may have. Calling multiple times just to get results back and then waiting days for someone to return your call. If you have the opportunity to go somewhere else , I highly recommend it. Go to a doctor that will really listen to you and your concerns and not just see a price tag when you walk through the doors.Terrible experience.

Not a thoughrough enough examination from Dr. Levine, and talks straight into IVF. Bad communication from office, had to hound them for test results and call backs to move further in the process. I know some people are stuck going where insurance pays, but if you have the option, go some where else where you aren't treated like a number.My beautiful baby girl is here, and I have everyone at HVF to thank.

In my process, I felt their approach was rooted in relationship, I was not treated as a number, an outcome, or as a patient. Staff members built connection in my journey and showed exemplary dedication to their role in my journey. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Levine and trust him fully. I simply cannot stop speaking gratitude over this fertility clinic.Dr. Levine is the best! We absolutely love the practice. 10/10 experience wonderful facility and staff.Just had my egg retrieval surgery today!

My specific situation was not analyzed and cared about any more than the next. Dr. Levine is out one office and into the next, without looking at your situation. No adjustments were made to any treatment progress, given our past history. I wasn’t called back on numerous occasions. Infertility is no joke and very time sensitive/consuming and although the office staff are nice, this clinic just wants your money. I’d rather drive an extra hour further to receive a more personalized experience, as every couple going through infertility deserves.There aren't enough words for my husband and I to express how much we love and appreciate Dr. Levine and all of the staff at Hudson Valley Fertility.

We went to them in August after having a miscarriage of our first pregnancy. Absolutely devastated and scared, Dr. Levine instantly showed us care, compassion, and most importantly, science, medicine and faith. After only a few months of fertility assistance, and lots of prayer, I am now 3 months pregnant with our miracle baby. We are absolutely elated and cannot thank Dr. Levine and the staff at Hudson Valley Fertility enough.I had a great experience with Dr. Levine.

After two failed IVF cycles at RMA, I went to Dr. Levine. He really made me feel comfortable and just another number like I felt at the other facility. I ended up having a successful cycle and I'm due in March with my son. I couldn't be happier. Highly recommend Hudson Valley Fertility!!Absolutely love Dr Levine and ALL the staff. They truly are amazing people and invested in their patients.I have been dealing with HVF for almost 2 years now- we did two IVF cycles with them, the first was not successful and the second was successful.

For being the only local clinic in Dutchess County, I am over all happy with my experience. He is the only dr there and you will get to know most of the nursing staff. The two phlebotomists were amazing & very kind. Over all I am happy with my time here and am grateful that I will have my miracle baby in FebruaryI had a great experience at Hudson Valley Fertility.

After almost 2 years of trying I was referred here from my ObGyn. Casey and entire staff made an already stressful and emotional situation go so smoothly. Casey throughly explained all of mine and my husband’s options and never pressured us into anything. We ultimately decided to start with IUI since it’s less invasive. I luckily became pregnant after the first try and am due with our baby girl this July. I couldn’t be more thankful to Casey, Dr. Levine and entire nursing staff at HVF!I can’t express what a positive experience we had at Hudson Valley Fertility. Dr. Levine, Casey, and the office staff were extremely professional, compassionate, and…I can’t express what a positive experience we had at Hudson Valley Fertility. Dr. Levine, Casey, and the office staff were extremely professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable. It seemed to us like they genuinely wanted us to succeed in our journey and when we finally got pregnant through IUI, we felt like the whole office was so happy for us and celebrated with us. We highly recommend Hudson Valley Fertility and we are beyond grateful for their help with our fertility journey.Awful.

He speaks very quickly and it is clear that he speaks about IVF all day long and is not interested in speaking in layman's terms and relating to a nervous new patient who has never gone through IVF before. He races around the clinic during monitoring and barely stays in the room post-ultrasound to answer questions. I always felt very rushed and though it seemed everything was fine, he was not able to make me feel important or explain things in a way I felt comfortable with...Our fert rate from IVF cycle was low and he could provide very little explanation which was frustrating and he just blamed the embryologist. Lastly, due to COVID most visits were telemedicine and I was appalled to receive bills following where we were charged for EVERY phone conversation. Now that I am in a different clinic I see how this is not the standard procedure and we feel super taken advantage of.I liked Dr. Levine when we first started, but his lack of empathy and bedside manner became cause for concern after our first IVF resulted in a missed miscarriage in which he just…I liked Dr. Levine when we first started, but his lack of empathy and bedside manner became cause for concern after our first IVF resulted in a missed miscarriage in which he just left the room during our ultrasound. After that he just pushed me into a d&c, and kept telling us PGT would be our answer. After 2 failed transfers later he still had no answers for us so we decided to move care. He maxed out my fertility benefits without ever individualizing my care or reviewing my records. I came in having thyroid issues but not once during the 17 months I was in his care did he question or run thyroid labs...Dr. Levine was friendly, warm, welcoming, funny, encouraging, and had a positive attitude.

He put results of visits in a positive light (for example, when I had a couple of good follicles he made me feel better by mentioning that is exactly what they want to see). He also would wave his hands over my stomach after an IUI to transfer positive energy and lighten the mood.... Dr. Levine helped to monitor me closer to IUI time. On some cycles he helped to monitor my follicle size and determined when I needed to trigger. He also completed some IUI. In the beginning of one cycle a cyst/cysts were noticed.I believe that Dr. Levine is genuine but I do think it's difficult as a patient to understand him.

It's the way he delivers information that is hard to understand. I think he needs to slow down and speak in more generic terms that people hearing not so great news would better be able to understand...We froze my eggs in January. Put me on prenatals and BC in August and started my fertility meds for a transfer in early September. They did rapid PGS testing the night before my retrieval and when I got to the office for my retrieval they told me all my embryos were abnormal and we couldn't proceed.Dr. Levine is a very caring funny guy.

He shows compassion to his patients. He listens and answers. Clinically though I am not that happy with him. He diagnosed me with PCOS and placed me on metformin. He never told me to supplement with vitamin B12. He ordered an elaborate blood clotting panel after 2 failed embryo transfers and a miscarriage, but never spoke to me about the results.

She was available 24/7 even on weekends to answer any question through text and even on the phone. I have not seen or heard a doctor who would be so accessible to her patients in this manner.

He makes himself available for many of the appointments personally. He doesn't sugar coat the odds. He does ample testing to cover all bases. He, personally, has performed most of my IUI's (a few were done by his P.A.), all of my saline sonograms, hysteroscopies/D&C's, ERA, and my IVF retrieval/transfer. If you don't want to be passed between many different doctors, this is the place. He adjusts treatments frequently based on lab work and ultrasounds. His lab had phenomenal results for us using ICSI and growing out my poor aging eggs to blastocyst stage for PGS testing.Who you would meet
