From the…I cannot say enough wonderful things about Bianca Weaver. She guided me through my second HSG procedure with exceptional compassion, professionalism, and expertise. From the moment I arrived, she made me feel comfortable, informed, and genuinely cared for during what can be an incredibly emotional and stressful experience for anyone navigating infertility. Her bedside manner is truly unmatched. She is warm, kind, knowledgeable, and punctual, taking the time to explain each step of the procedure while offering reassurance throughout. Her confidence and clinical skill immediately put me at ease, making a difficult procedure far more manageable than I anticipated. If you are facing infertility or undergoing fertility testing, Bianca is exactly the kind of provider you hope to have by your side. Her combination of technical excellence and heartfelt compassion makes her an absolute asset to her practice. I am incredibly grateful for the care she provided and would recommend her without hesitation.Fertility clinic

Always an amazing experience with Yllena!! She’s always gentle and explains everything.I started listing the names of the people at Kentucky Fertility Institute that have been absolutely phenomenal to us, but I realized this review would be a mile long. The entire…I started listing the names of the people at Kentucky Fertility Institute that have been absolutely phenomenal to us, but I realized this review would be a mile long. The entire team is thoughtful. They remember you by name. They remember your situation or what’s going on in your life, even outside of the office. They’re personal and relatable from the first visit to your last. They’re sensitive to your thoughts, feelings and even your fears. Anyone that walks through their door has a story and it wasn’t likely their first choice when planning for a family; but the KFI team quickly becomes part of your journey that you wouldn’t want to change. Through pregnancy losses, an emergency fertility related surgery, and every procedure between, the team has been top notch. I can’t mention Dr. Hunter without naming Yllena Novitsky and Bianca Weaver; but I can’t mention them without Candace Rodriguez. I can’t leave out even the one who keeps everyone’s schedules straight, Courtney Gabbert. I owe a huge thank you to each one of them and recommend their services. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!Love them so much! Yllena is amazing and everyone is so nice and friendly and answers all my questions. I’m having my IUI this week ❤️This is my 4th fertility clinic & THE FIRST to make me feel at home & not another patient. Bianca is super friendly, professional & respectful.

She makes me feel at ease with the whole process! I wish I would have seen her sooner!After struggling to conceive and feeling dismissed by my OB, I made the decision to reach out to Kentucky Fertility Institute—and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.…After struggling to conceive and feeling dismissed by my OB, I made the decision to reach out to Kentucky Fertility Institute—and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Despite our concerns, I was repeatedly told that since we already had one child, nothing was wrong. We were left without answers or testing. Within just one month of contacting KFI, we finally had answers. Their team was responsive, thorough, and proactive—quickly completing lab work for both my husband and me and creating a clear plan forward. After five medicated cycles, we moved on to IVF. Our very first round was successful, and today we are blessed with our precious 10-week-old baby. Our prayers were answered, and our daughter now has her baby sister. Everyone—and I truly mean everyone—at KFI was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to helping us succeed. They never rushed me, supported me through the hardest moments, hugged me when I cried, and never gave up on us. My only regret is not going to them sooner. With God and KFI, we now have everything we ever dreamed of.Wonderful care! So relatable, kind and compassionate. Very knowledge and experienced. They do hard stuff well!Going through a fertility journey is never easy; however, doing it by Bianca's side made the entire process so much kinder.

Her warmth, kindness, humanity, and constant willingness to help were key in every single step. We truly don't know how to thank her enough for being part of this chapter in our lives. We also want to thank the entire KFI team: Courtney, who always greets you with a smile; Kathy, who was so gentle and kind during every blood draw; and Candy, for being so attentive and supportive. Thank you so much to the whole team!These fabulous healthcare professionals are a bright light when you are going through the darkness of infertility.

Dr. Hunter performed my surgery and did an outstanding job. He is extremely knowledgeable and has taken the time to address every concern I’ve had thus far, which I truly appreciate. Everyone in the office has been kind, patient, and very responsive. They are always quick to get back to me whenever I have questions and have been incredibly helpful throughout the process. I’ve felt well supported and cared for, and I’m looking forward to continuing my IVF journey with this team.KFI has grown to feel like a second family to me.

While going through infertility has been a rollercoaster, having support from the team at KFI has made such a big difference physically and mentally. I have full trust in them and their guidance as I navigate my fertility journey. I feel endlessly grateful that I found KFI when I did and for all their help so far. I couldn’t recommend them more!She was wonderful. Kept me calm and was supportive during an uncomfortable procedure. Blessed to be their patient!Kind, comforting and knowledgeable. Very pleased with how the appointment went. We trust this office and Bianca.10/10! Bianca is the absolute best!

Now I'm waiting to know how many embryos I managed to have, but with your knowledge I know that we will be able to reach a desired pregnancy. Thank you very much, Dr. Hunter, for your wonderful workI’m feeling pretty lucky to be sitting here, 23 weeks pregnant, getting to write this review.

We ultimately had a spontaneous pregnancy, but, looking back, I think the two preceding IUI rounds that we did with KY Fertility were good primers. We were about to start an IVF treatment when the technician said, “wait…you’re already pregnant…” I couldn’t believe it. I mean, if that’s not the best news to hear after any amount of fertility treatment, I don’t know what is. As challenging as a fertility journey and treatment is, the entire staff at KY Fertility is really kind, supportive and helpful throughout the process. They were easy to work with, responsive to my calls and emails and were always also pleasant and positive during in person visits. I was also very impressed and grateful for their organization in providing a list of dates & to-do’s for each step of the treatment I was undergoing. There’s a lot to keep track of and do on any given specific date. I appreciated how responsive the team was to my questions and for the materials they provided to help with tracking. I can say the same about Dr. Hunter; he spent time with us (via Zoom) to answer our questions and review options with us. And while the news he had to give us wasn’t exactly positive given my age at 40+ (we ultimately defied some odds!), he delivered it in a way that was both delicate and professional. Hang in there, you’re doing great, future mom :) Know that KY Fertility is also a great partner in your fertility journey to have on your side.The best.

I never imagined finding a team with as much heart as the one at Kentucky Fertility Institute. During one of the most emotional and challenging journeys of my life, they were my support, my calm, and my light. They cared for me, listened to me, and gave me hope exactly when I needed it most. Because of their dedication, compassion, and genuine love for what they do, I am now living a dream I once feared would take forever to reach. I will never forget what they have done for me. This clinic will always have a place in my heart, because thanks to them… my miracle is real. Baby Emma arriving June 2026 💕✨Dr.Hunter & his staff literally made my biggest dream in life come true.

Not only were they professional, but incredibly compassionate. I never felt like just another number. They took their time with everything & were there to comfort me through the hard times, & celebrate with me during our victory. They feel like family & I can’t wait for them to meet our bundle of joy! HUGE shoutout to Nicole, Bianca, Yllena & Kathy. Couldn’t have gotten through this without them!!I wanted to wait until the end of our IVF journey to write this review. I started back in 2021 with KFI and to say I was nervous was an understatement. The team from the very…I wanted to wait until the end of our IVF journey to write this review. I started back in 2021 with KFI and to say I was nervous was an understatement. The team from the very first visit knew how to make me feel welcome. Kathy, the phlebotomist, was the first person I’d see every appointment and was always comforting and supportive. She made you feel right at home no matter if it was a great day or one of the worst days of the journey. One time, I knew the result would be negative before the blood was even drawn. She silently gave me a big hug and helped me exit out a back door so I wouldn’t have to go through the waiting area. It was that small attention to detail that meant the world. Fortunately but also unfortunately, I got to know all the staff in our 4 year journey very well. We did 2 egg retrievals, era biopsy, polyp removal surgery, and 7 embryo transfers with Dr. Hunter and his team. There isn’t any other team I would want to go through all of that with. We thought we were at the end of our journey but Paige, being the angel that she is, had kept two of our day 7 embryos (which some clinics wouldn’t have kept). She sent them for testing and both came back euploid. We did one last transfer and it worked! We truly owe our son to her. The NPs and nurses at this clinic are incredible as well! They were always ready to explain what to expect, they always had an answer for any questions, and their timelines were clearly stated and easy to follow. They always treated me with compassion and I could really feel them celebrating the highs and feeling the lows with us. Lastly, Dr. Hunter is an incredible physician and was always very supportive and helpful with follow-up visits. He was always accessible and was quick to answer any questions I had after our telehealth conversations. He is extremely knowledgeable and was quick to present all possible options. My only wish is that I could continue my pregnancy with KFI. They have become my family and I will miss not coming to the office anymore. Thank you KFI from the bottom of my heart. Our daughter is the light of our life and we cannot wait to meet our son next April. My family is complete because of you.A Dream Team That Helped Us Achieve Ours After years of struggling to get pregnant and exhausting every avenue—working with a nutritionist, personal coach, primary care physician,…A Dream Team That Helped Us Achieve Ours After years of struggling to get pregnant and exhausting every avenue—working with a nutritionist, personal coach, primary care physician, and OB—we finally connected with Kentucky Fertility Institute. From our very first visit, we knew we were in the right hands. The team at KFI is nothing short of exceptional. Their warmth, encouragement, and unwavering support gave us hope during a time when we had very little left. They took the time to truly understand our journey, explained every step with compassion and clarity, and celebrated every milestone with us. Their care goes far beyond medical expertise—they treat you like family. Because of KFI, we were finally able to achieve our dream of starting a family. I’m forever grateful and still keep in touch with the doctors. I look for any chance to support this incredible organization and share our story with others. If you’re searching for answers, support, and a team who genuinely cares, KFI is the place to go. They are truly the dream team.From the very first consultation to the final positive pregnancy test, our experience with Kentucky Fertility Institute has been nothing short of extraordinary. Every member of…From the very first consultation to the final positive pregnancy test, our experience with Kentucky Fertility Institute has been nothing short of extraordinary. Every member of the staff — from the receptionists to the nurses, nurse practitioners, embryologists, and doctors — treated us with kindness, patience, and genuine care. They didn’t just see us as patients; they saw us as people with hopes, fears, and dreams. Before coming to KFI, we had been to another fertility clinic without success, which left us feeling defeated and uncertain. The moment we walked through KFI’s doors, everything felt different — their compassion, attention to detail, and truly personalized care gave us hope again. The journey to parenthood can be emotional and challenging, but the team at KFI explained every step clearly, celebrated the milestones with us, and held our hands during the tougher days. Their expertise and encouragement gave us the confidence and peace of mind we desperately needed. We are overjoyed to share that we are expecting — something we once feared might never happen. We owe this miracle to the dedication, skill, and love that this incredible team poured into our care. From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for giving us the opportunity to start our family. We will forever be grateful. And a very special thank you to Dr. Hunter, Yllena, and the most amazing embryologist, Paige ❤️My husband and I went to KFI for a second opinion- it’s undoubtedly one of the best decisions we’ve made.

Any questions or concerns I had throughout the process were listened to and answered with transparency. Dr Hunter relays information to you in a straight to the point manner. He doesn’t sugar coat things and I never felt unsure about any part of his plan for us. Unexplained fertility is what we have. We tried a round of meds with one of my cycles, moved onto a round of IUI, and ultimately a round of IVF. I was able to advocate for myself during each part of my journey. I’ve been in some medical facilities that give me a bad vibe and all I had (and still have) with KFI are good vibes. Dr Hunter and his team are amazing and I will always recommend KFI. They gave us the most precious gift we could have ever asked for!I am incredibly grateful to the entire team at KFI for helping us turn our dreams into reality!

The staff were so welcoming and warm. We felt supported from start to finish. This process is grueling and having people around you who you know are really on your side I genuinely believe makes a difference in the success. They took the stress of all the logistics out of my hands so I could focus on the real reason I was there. However, the kindness of the staff was just a bonus to the professionalism. I never doubted this team’s ability. From the front desk staff to the embryologist they are all the top tier. Dr. Hunter was wonderful-a straight shooter which I appreciated but also sensitive during difficult times. I was so glad to find a team in Louisville.

I appreciate that he isn't always warm and fuzzy, but rather confident in his medicine. That's not to say he isn't personable, because he is...always takes a personal approach to my case...had to do a long stim to get my eggs mature enough, which meant some of them were kind of overmedicated and very fragile But, we got 6 eggs, did ICSI (which he does for everyone) and ended with two strong embryos.Dr. hunter is very cautious about transferring more than one embryo.

But he does balance this with compassion and caring. He does not complicate issues and doesn't overwhelm you with too much info. But any question you do ask, he completes his response with, "what else can i answer for you." So, if you do like a lot of information you can ask as many questions as you want. I tend to want to know the basics but too much information/ alternate options can stress me out. So I do appreciate his balance of information without speculation. There is so much comfort in knowing everything, every part of your procedure, is kept under his roof and his eye.We had nothing but a positive experience with Dr. Hunter.

He made us feel confident in our course of care but never over confident. We appreciated his occasional bluntness and straight forward explanations. We trusted him and felt he knew what was best for us and our process. ... When it came to treatment and our options, Dr. Hunter was always very straight forward and all business. However, he would also ask us about our jobs and what we were doing in daily life, and would remember from appointment to appointment and ask about things we had discussed at previous appointments. This made us feel like he really did see us as people and cared about us, not JUST the treatment plan. We never felt rushed when meeting with him or like he was trying to get us finished so he could go on to the next.He [Dr. Robert Hunter II] takes a personal and flexible approach to treatment and went outside of the box for us, which is so much better than getting a one size/schedule fits all…He [Dr. Robert Hunter II] takes a personal and flexible approach to treatment and went outside of the box for us, which is so much better than getting a one size/schedule fits all IVF round like we experienced with our prior fertility doctor...gave us hope after two years of failed fertility treatments, without overpromising anything...responded - in depth, late at night, and almost always the same day if not within a couple hours - directly to me by phone and email to answer any questions and assuage concerns.

He stays up-to-date on the latest research/studies and isn't afraid to modify based on the latest research. He is a facts-driven person that he communicates in a way that I found comforting...he was quite confident that I did not need these extra treatments but instead, some of the basic approaches within IVF (that were missing from my initial round of IVF--PIO shots, estradiol supplements, etc.) may get me where I wanted to be. We also did a mock trial before my round of IVFI could not speak more highly of a doctor than Dr. Justice. She was a smiling face at every single visit.

He was willing to do it despite it being less predictable and convenient for the clinic. The transfer was successful and I SO appreciated that he listened to my concerns and worked with me on a protocol that reduced the amount of drugs I had to take. I went into the transfer feeling SO much better and it worked!As a plus size, advanced maternal age patient - I was terrified of beginning this journey...I was always treated with respect and compassion.

He did not show adequate empathy, he reminded me frequently of how old I was in an callous way, he didn’t communicate treatment plans well, and when things were clearly not working he didn’t change the protocol or consider how the treatments would affect me cumulatively.While [Dr. Hunter] does not have the warmest bedside manner he was very good at explaining everything and making us feel taken care of in the best way.

I never feel rushed in my appointments. He also does not give false hope. I would rather someone give me the real numbers rather than getting my hopes up if my chances are not great.... I have been trying to conceive for over 10 years with no answers. Dr Hunter took over my care after his partner left the practice. We did decide to do IvF after many failed IUI’s. He never forced this on me but felt is was my best option. We did one transfer one embryo that ended in a chemical pregnancy.Dr. Hunter listened to my prior diagnoses and created a personalized treatment plan that allowed us to have a successful outcome.

If we ever had any questions, even when we weren’t being actively treated, we could reach out to him via email, and he would respond to us within a day and not have us pay a co-pay or setup an appointment...Don’t expect him to coddle you through this journey, but expect results because you will get those. He will keep going until you say the word. He’s all in as long as you’re all in!We tried 5 rounds of timed intercourse with trigger shots and letrozole.

He [Dr. Robert Hunter] said since there is nothing he can see from ultrasound and imaging stopping me from getting pregnant this was the route to go. We had zero luck. We then tried 1 round of IUI with letrozole and yet again nothing...spoke very snidely and condescending when answering questions as well as going over my medical history. There was also ZERO follow up after each procedure, not even and email. I emailed at 1 point to ask if I was supposed to be the one reaching out after each failed procedure and did not hear back for 2 weeks and got an excuse that the nurse practitioner whom I had never seen in the first place was out of office. When I'd call they were quick to schedule and get payment up front then have me wait an hour for service. But then bill me for that same service I had just paid upfront for.Dr. Hunter listened to my concerns, created a plan for me based on my needs, and was always available to answer any questions or respond to any concerns I had. ...

My only "issue" with Dr. Hunter is that occasionally he seemed confused by a question I had and why it mattered, ... For my age and history, Dr. Hunter strongly suggested we do a single embryo transfer. Given my height, BMI, and fitness level, Dr. Hunter believed I could handle a twin pregnancy, so he did not completely rule out multiple embryo transfer for our situation.Dr. Hunter takes the time to listen and thoroughly answer questions. He is direct with expectations but tempered with compassion. You feel totally in control throughout the…Dr. Hunter takes the time to listen and thoroughly answer questions. He is direct with expectations but tempered with compassion. You feel totally in control throughout the process, just with a really smart guide to help plot your course... Initially the treatment strategy was just to induce ovulation (I didn’t have regular cycles) and pair it with timed intercourse since my husband had no issues with sperm. We failed to get a positive result and in between cycles ended up with a large ovarian cyst that needed to be removed which was done so quickly and fairly easily with no complications via laparoscopic surgery by Dr. Hunter. Prior to the rounds of clomid and femara I underwent an HSG to make sure my tubes were clear and also had a polyp removed from my uterus. After the failed rounds of clomid and femara and cyst we decided to move on to IVF because I was nervous about more cysts recquiring surgery. We did an egg retrieval after a fairly aggressive stims cycle and planned for a frozen transfer of a day 5 embryo. We opted for frozen versus fresh cycle because of my age I was more at risk to be a high responder and develop OHSS. We retrieved 14 eggs and ended up with 3 day 5 embryos (2aa grade). We did two frozen transfers 1 resulting in a negative test and another where we transferred the remaining two and one implanted but didn’t make it past 6 weeks. We are now considering another round of IVF with PGS testing to ensure we have quality embryos and are doing a saline ultrasound to make sure my uterus still looks clean.He took his time to review all of our information prior to meeting with us.

He was very up front and prepared with all the information regarding us trying another IVF cycle. I am personally employed in women's health and not once did I feel like Dr. Hunter assumed I already knew something. He treated me with the utmost respect and explained everything as though it was the 1st time we had gone though treatments.Dr. Justice always was kind, easy to talk to and never rushed me.

She was always very open and honest and encouraging... is extremely knowledgeable about all things Fertility. She was always available, even coming in early and staying late to fit my schedule. She knew financing was a challenge and did all she could to make my experience as affordable as possible. She was calm, caring and treated my family like family (not patients). She gradually went through a course of treatment and did not rush us to make rash or expensive decisions. She was amazing! I would recommend her to anyone.Dr Hunter used aspirin and progesterone during my attempts to get pregnant...That was for an IUI...truly cares about his patients and wants the best for them. He remains extremely…Dr Hunter used aspirin and progesterone during my attempts to get pregnant...That was for an IUI...truly cares about his patients and wants the best for them. He remains extremely busy, so there are times when the wait to see him may take a bit. After being his patient, I realize that wait is worth it, because he listens, he makes sure all questions are answered, and he wants you to leave satisfied. He holds few doubts in his ability to assist you to your goal. Dr Hunter is great at what he does and I’m lucky I found him.Dr Justice is very kind and has a gentle demeanor.

She is realistic and honest. Her personality is laid back and almost feels shy at first, so it initially took me a couple of visits to warm up to her. She is wonderful... We had 4 failed IUIs. The first 2 using letrozole only. After the first 2 failed, we did a Hysterosalpingogram with normal results. My husbands initial count was great however morphology was quite low. Throughout the course of attempts his count was between 6 and 15 million, with morphology improving somewhat. After the fourth failed IUI she recommended IVF as the best way to get a positive pregnancy test.Who you would meet
