We ended up pursuing embryo adoption through a different clinic but needed an ultrasound at a specific time after the positive pregnancy test. OHSU had availability. We had already decided that we wouldn’t be staying with OHSU through the pregnancy anyway but thought that having them do an ultrasound would be fine. The lady was nice and we were all getting along when suddenly after seeing the heartbeat she proceeds to tell us that those cells are just doing what they’re programmed to do and that she doesn’t understand why people use the heartbeat as a pro life argument. So while she’s doing an ultrasound on someone that has been desperate to see a positive pregnancy test for eight years she decides to promote abortion??? Talk about misreading the room. That completely changed our experience there and also solidified why we’ll be staying far away from this horrible place.Fertility clinic

Theres no hope for pregnancy here.This clinic wasted a year of my time.

Poor communication, a missed diagnosis that would have significantly changed the decisions my partner and I made with respect to treatment, and a lack of clear policies or procedures made for a miserable experience. Getting people on the phone to schedule time-sensitive appointments or even getting messages back requires 2-3 follow-up phone calls and a lot of stress. The good employees are over-worked and stretched thin, resulting in a conveyor-belt style feeling. Switched clinics and I'm kicking myself for waiting so long- with a ticking clock, this place is not worth spending precious time on.My wife and I have been trying to have a baby for over a few years.

We came to Dr. Sacha Krieg for help. She is very professional and friendly. Dr. Krieg help us complete our family with a healthy boy this year. Highly recommended! Thank you very much for your help, Dr. Krieg. Your team helped and saved our family!Working with OHSU on our IVF journey has been a terrible experience.

A family friend donated her eggs to us so my husband and I could start our family. During the process, OHSU ran out of basic medical supplies (gauge/bandages during blood retrieval), ended up losing her bloodwork, and was always very difficult to get into contact with. Given our friend donated her eggs, all parties signed legal paperwork denoting the embryos would belong to me and my partner, along with all financial responsibility; this was provided to OHSU. However, OHSU would contact our egg donor for updates and billing regarding the embryos (not us) even though the embryos are not legally hers, which causes all of us stress. Given this bad experience throughout, we stopped working with OHSU and transferred our genetic material to another clinic. We strongly recommend against OHSU.I am writing to express my frustration and concern regarding my wife’s an I recent experience with your office.

She scheduled an appointment for December 12th a month in advance, but was unaware that she needed to complete a questionnaire beforehand. It wasn’t until she logged into MyChart to confirm the appointment that she discovered this requirement. Despite sending an email through MyChart, she never received a response. She completed the questionnaire four days prior to the appointment, but to her surprise, it was still canceled without any communication from your office. She called the answering service for assistance, but the response was unhelpful and disrespectful , and she was not given the opportunity to speak with someone in a higher positionvt they even hung out the call on her. This situation has only added to our anxiety and stress, and the lack of support and communication has made this experience even more challenging. We are still wisheing to be seen at OHSU, and we are requesting that her appointment be rescheduled as soon as possible her oregonl appointment supposed to be 12/12 we cant even believe its already given to someone eals . We would greatly appreciate it if someone could contact us promptly to resolve this issue and ensure she is able to . get an appointment as soon as possible. We really appreciate any help we can get and i think we deserve to be respected ,Thank you for your attention to this matter.Antonio, the representative at the fertility clinic was rude, short, and very unhelpful.

We have called multiple times to schedule an appointment and he has made it impossible. We drive a hours to be seen at OHSU. I would never recommend anyone here knowing they have to go through this difficult person. He is driving your patients away. I will be looking elsewhere.Who ever Antonio is he really should not be handing customer service/scheduling! He is flat out rude! The facility should really look into taking care of this! After reading the…Who ever Antonio is he really should not be handing customer service/scheduling! He is flat out rude! The facility should really look into taking care of this! After reading the reviews there are multiple people who have complained of thos particular individual already!Patient care coordinator Brooke B is Amazing! I wasn't going to stay with the clinic, but due to her help I am. She is worth her weight in gold.I found Dr. Rubin after seeing two different doctors at this practice focused on reproductive endocrinology. Dr. Rubin has been nothing short of magical! I came in with…I found Dr. Rubin after seeing two different doctors at this practice focused on reproductive endocrinology. Dr. Rubin has been nothing short of magical! I came in with POI/perimenopause issues and polyps. Dr. Rubin is patient, attentive, and really understands the ways perimenopause impacts people lives. She came up with a prescription plan that includes testosterone that has been incredible for me. Finding a doctor that listens to their patient is unfortunately a rarity. Top that off with finding a provider that can get how the medical industrial complex can leave out queer, trans, and women of color is northing short of a miracle. Dr. Rubin has really been able to provide the necessary care I needed with a trauma-informed lens around how ob/gyn practices can be triggering for survivors. I have also had a positive experience with the clinic being HAES inclusive. If you're part of the LGBTQ and/or POC community, dealing with anything related to ob/gyn issues (getting pregnant, HRT, gender affirming care, etc.), Dr. Rubin is the person you want in your corner!Somebody like Antonio should not work at a fertility clinic. This is the second bad I experience I had with Antonio. He is rude, short and extremely unhelpful. He makes it nearly…Somebody like Antonio should not work at a fertility clinic. This is the second bad I experience I had with Antonio. He is rude, short and extremely unhelpful. He makes it nearly impossible to schedule an appointment. My OBGYN referred my husband and I to this clinic and my husband called to schedule and appointment and this time Antonio let him know that they do not do fertility treatments at OHSU male fertility.. and would not further explain. Makes no sense. Infertility is already so hard and Antonio makes it so much harder.I would not recommend this place unless you’re willing to waste your time and money. They don’t care about you and your specific needs. Each time Dr Amato called me she didn’t…I would not recommend this place unless you’re willing to waste your time and money. They don’t care about you and your specific needs. Each time Dr Amato called me she didn’t even know my stats and would mess up about how many embryos we had or what we’ve already tried. I had to remind her every time. And when cycles didn’t work out she didn’t have an answer to why or what we could test for answers and just wanted to blindly try something slightly different. $36,000 and no baby in the end. I wish i would have waited for the waitlist at ORM.Great team at the fertility clinic. They are kind and patient. Wish they would could continue to do IVF here however glad they are still doing IUI!After 6 years of trying to conceive with PCOS and male factor as well, after only 3 medicated and ultrasound-monitored cycles (just medication, no IUI or IVF) with OHSU Fertility…After 6 years of trying to conceive with PCOS and male factor as well, after only 3 medicated and ultrasound-monitored cycles (just medication, no IUI or IVF) with OHSU Fertility we were able to get and stay pregnant! We are so thankful to Dr. Sacha Krieg and her team for helping us and for carefully monitoring our pregnancy through the first trimester. She was so kind and understanding, and she and her colleagues were very skilled and knowledgeable. Words cannot express how grateful we are to have had help getting pregnant, and the graduation gift at the end of our time there was a very sweet gesture as well. If you are going through struggles with fertility, we highly recommend going to OHSU!Antonio from OHSU Fertility is painfully difficult to work with. After informing me I needed a specific date on my requisition form before I could schedule, I wanted to clarify…Antonio from OHSU Fertility is painfully difficult to work with. After informing me I needed a specific date on my requisition form before I could schedule, I wanted to clarify logistically how that worked if I had to get an ultrasound done on a specific day of my cycle. He continued to harp on the fact that I needed a date. Which I kept saying I understood. I'm used to having to book out months in advance to get ultrasounds, so I was trying to wrap my head around the logistics. Literally twenty minutes later of going back and forth and me repeating myself that I understood the date requirement and me saying you are not listening to what I am asking. He finally clarified that the wait to book out is a week. That is all I wanted to clarify. I asked for his name, so I could speak to someone else next time I call back. Stop multitasking when you are on the phone. Listen to what is being asked. Fertility is already stressful. It would be helpful if staff didn't contribute to the stress by being intentionally difficult on the phone.This is Sep 7, 2023 (12:10pm).

Just made a call to this clinic, trying to find out what this clinic do (I wonder if I can still get preganant). A male (from the voice, he sounds like in his 30's, but i am not entirely sure) answerred my call. He does not even have the patience to use a few sentences to describe what they do. He first told me they scheculed to year 2024. After I said a simple blood test and ultrasond test need to be schules that far? He simply asked me to check on the web site. Very negative attitute.I had two IUI’s, two retrievals, and one transfer done at OHSU - and I’m thrilled to be pregnant (and thereby a bit biased). I was a patient of Dr Krieg’s (no relation), who was…I had two IUI’s, two retrievals, and one transfer done at OHSU - and I’m thrilled to be pregnant (and thereby a bit biased). I was a patient of Dr Krieg’s (no relation), who was wonderfully caring and very knowledgeable — but ended up seeing most of the doctors in the practice throughout my time there, as they rotate who is in clinic. They are all great, and Drs Lee and Rubin have a particularly warm bedside manner. They did not push trendy tests or bells and whistles, and always walked me through the science of what we were doing. The clinic is efficient and appointments (and I went to many!!) were almost always on time. The younger gentleman at the front desk knew us on sight and was always very kind and helpful. I know they have tons of patients, but the support of the nursing team (especially Ellen, Oanh, and Emily) really made me feel special! They were always kind, responsive, and helpful, even with the smallest question - often responding via MyChart and following up with a phone call same day. I know they’ve had some difficulties staffing their finance office, as we had some confusing billing over the summer and spring we’re still trying to sort out, but I fault that partially to my insurance company. If you can get a hold of Zoe on the finance team, she is a great resource. I haven’t tried any other clinics, but I reviewed pricing at ORM too and found OHSU was cheaper, and from chatting with other friends I think their patient management is better. 10/10 will recommend, and hopefully we’ll be back for Baby 2 in the future!This place takes forever to schedule an appointment, I have been to the front desk and the ladies are just chilling there.

I have called the scheduling line now for the third time , and each time have spent over 40 min on hold and gave up. this is not the way to start, left a poor impression, if this is how its going to be, this is not good. It would be great to have even a scheduling service to assist, because an hour on hold is absolutely unacceptable.I switched from a different fertility clinic, and decided to travel even further to receive care at OHSU. I am thankful I did. Dr. Amato and Dr. Krieg are great. However, their…I switched from a different fertility clinic, and decided to travel even further to receive care at OHSU. I am thankful I did. Dr. Amato and Dr. Krieg are great. However, their nursing staff is amazing and is a huge reason why I am so impressed with the care I received. They use MyChart the majority of the time instead of trying to get ahold of someone via phone, and I received almost instant replies to my questions. The instructions were detailed and could be printed easily to follow day by day. They called to check on me post retrevial, and were able to tell me what was normal/abnormal thru-out the process. I would highly recommend traveling from any distance to visit this clinic. Also be sure to ask about local monitoring if you are a traveling patient. The one negative was the billing office (or lack their of) due to staffing shortage.I would NOT recommend this place unless you want to waste time and money. They have no compassion for you and will herd you in and out like cattle, I never felt like an actual…I would NOT recommend this place unless you want to waste time and money. They have no compassion for you and will herd you in and out like cattle, I never felt like an actual patient at this place. If you're out of state, they'll make you make the trek to see them last minute, because they are too lazy to ask for the imaging when you see another provider for your ultrasounds. Then proceed to waste your time and give you completely different information from the previous doctor you seen the day before. Nobody can remember your situation, that to me is very unprofessional. How hard is it to glance at a file? They'll blame you and your body for their incompetence. To get any answers from the doctors or nurses you have to ask the right questions or else you'll leave the office more frustrated, because you feel like you don't know anything that is happening in your cycle, (I guess they don't realize how emotionally taxing this is loading your body with hormones.) They work mainly with email. If you call, you'll have to wait 30 min for someone to even answer the phone and then wait for the nurse to call you back at their convenience and answer none of your questions. 0 out of 5 stars - big waste of time. Just an update...after going to another clinic in UT, realized this place really has no idea what they are doing and they were WAY overmedicating me and making me do useless ultrasounds in their office. WAY better results, they were able to collect triple the eggs! The clinic in UT is a dream compared to dealing with the Portland nightmare.Chris from the billing department is a bully and does not listen to what I say, and he kept saying "lalalalala."

OSHU should be ashamed of people like Chris, who makes a fan of others. I requested the receipt I paid about 20 days ago, and he refused to state that the bill did not go through. I asked him to transfer me to his supervisor; he told me he was the supervisor and he was not going to transfer me. I needed my receipt for my FSA. Courtney from the front desk was not helpful either. She was only good at taking my payment.After a horrifying negligent experience at ORM in Portland, the team at OHSU was what I was looking for.

Professional, honest, and took time to listen to my questions and concerns. Dr. Rubin was fantastic, compassionate, and communicated well for my not-a-doctor but also an educated woman brain. Dr. Wu was also great. It took a year during covid lockdown to get me pregnant at 38, and 1.5x what we had budgeted. Longer than I had hoped, but this process is full of disappointment until the very end when hopefully you get what you are desperately seeking. Reviews are difficult because success is not guaranteed. Shout-out to the front desk, who made so many appointments feel like visiting a friend.Do not ever go to OHSU they don’t know what they’re doing. They lack experience .They don’t know how how to show they care for youLOVE Dr. Wu!!! She's so great. Her and all of her staff are amazing!! Highly recommend her.

While a large clinic they all go the extra mile to form relationships that feel genuine.

Only giving 3 stars because the billing department and financial counselors have been horrible. They are always difficult to contact (only a 20% chance that a phone call would be returned). I had a question on a bill and asked multiple times for a phone call to discuss details with no response. I refused to pay that bill until I had my question answered regarding those charges only for them to never respond and send me to collections.

The team at OHSU understood my intense travel schedule, worked hard to maximize our insurance coverage and gave us world class medical care through out the process. Dr. Wu was a breadth of fresh air, she’s honest, easy to talk to and compassionate. We ended up with 2 healthy, genetically normal embryos. And our very first transfer was successful! We are currently 6 months along and excited to have our first baby and to try again with our second embryo in a year :) I would highly recommend to anyone who is even curious about the process, especially LGBT couples!I had a great experience so far with the whole crew at OSHU fertility consultants.

The doctors care for their patients and not for their money. It’s affordable comparing to the other clinics and every issue is solved in no time.

They didn't have any other donors in the donor pool. Even though they couldn't proceed to provide the package we had contracted with them, they claimed that we were the ones cancelling the package we purchased with them and required us to pay a large cancellation fee. OHSU failed to prescribe the necessary counterpart prescriptions during our cycles. OHSU provided false information about pricing on several occasions (the doctor doesn't know the pricing and the financial people don't seem to ever get the right information from the treatment team before they give you the cost). On one occasion, OHSU called and told me I needed to come to the pharmacy before it closed to pick up a prescription they were calling in at that moment; I picked it up and paid $4000 for it. A few hours later the same person from OHSU called to tell me they were sorry but I did not need the medication. Then when we finally decided to leave OHSU and get what amount we could get refunded, they said it will take them WEEKS to fill out a form. The refund due to us won't happen until they fill out this form, and that's about $26,000 that we can't have for WEEKS because they can't be bothered to fill out a form.Excelent customer service towards me, very profesional despite your problems, I always leave happy after an appointment!!Great team of caring doctors and nurses. I felt supported during a heartbreaking time.From the initial consultation to the end of my first trimester Dr Amato and her team was amazing.

There was a wait for an initial consultation (that’s what happens when you’re good!) but once you are a patient you are her number one commitment. I would send an email on a Saturday night, thinking I would hear back Monday or Tuesday, and I was shocked Sunday morning when there was a reply. It got to the point my friends and I joke if I didn’t get a response back in six hours I should probably report her missing. IVF is a tough procedure, but they are there supporting you every step of the way. And most importantly my husband and I now have beautiful twin boys.Dr. Wu is amazing. The nurses and staff are great too.More reasons than 1 for a one star review. They charge you almost $500 for a 15 minute chat. Not even a consultation.

Then you get rescheduled for a lab test that costs $350 and the chat afterwards is 15 minutes. Keep in mind these appointments are at inconvenient times at an inconvenient location Show up early to check in, and wait 20 minutes after your appointment to see your Dr. But, if you are stuck in traffic and call in to let them know you are going to be 20 minutes late, they will say ok over the phone. We walk in exactly 16 minutes late (so we were early) and the reception kid says you need to reschedule. We were never "thanked" for having to wait beyond our scheduled appointment in the past, but we're basically shamed by them because we hit a traffic jam. Luckily we avoided the giant "consultation" fee for the third visit and demanded our test results so we could go elsewhere with it. Avoid this place. Run. Waste of your time and money.They are always very busy, any time if you need anything (consultation, appointments, even for a prescription) from a doctor it's at least a month wait.

The nurses are friendly but also seem over worked. they cannot remember your situation or answers you have already given them. If your plan is to spend a lot of $$ for treatments then you might get more attention. If you are already stressed out and disappointments with fertility issues, I would recommend other places. I know I don't have much time to waste.I have mixed feelings about this clinic. Some of the staff are wonderful and very caring. Others seemed to just want us in and out. I felt as though our treatment plan was very…I have mixed feelings about this clinic. Some of the staff are wonderful and very caring. Others seemed to just want us in and out. I felt as though our treatment plan was very generic and did not truly address the route cause of our issues. There were times when I had to remind the doctor/nurse/technician of certain information or to check test results before proceeding. They are also nearly impossible to get a hold of on the phone. Needless to say, we'll be using a different clinic to pursue IVF.Dr.Lee is very patient, compassionate and accommodating, we never feel rushed, or dismissed...antagonist protocol...progesterone and Cabergoline to help cool down my system due to…Dr.Lee is very patient, compassionate and accommodating, we never feel rushed, or dismissed...antagonist protocol...progesterone and Cabergoline to help cool down my system due to my endo and prevent OHSS...show great compassion with my history and identify being an immigrantDr. Krieg is very friendly and makes you feel heard from her warm demeanor...only seen Dr. Krieg virtually, and not at our specific appointments however this was communicated…Dr. Krieg is very friendly and makes you feel heard from her warm demeanor...only seen Dr. Krieg virtually, and not at our specific appointments however this was communicated fully and we understand that you may not get your specific doctor depending on the day...We are presented information and can process the information during our call and Dr. Krieg gives us space to do so....results were 4 embryos, 2 eggs...did genetic testing PGT M and A and found our results of viable eggAlmost every time I had a meeting with Dr. Rubin I had to re-explain my case...two months of Lupron...supposed to suppress my estrogen but it surged instead and I got a really bed…Almost every time I had a meeting with Dr. Rubin I had to re-explain my case...two months of Lupron...supposed to suppress my estrogen but it surged instead and I got a really bed endometriosis flare...hard time reaching Dr. Rubin...She totally dropped me as a patient and never gave a courtesy call to explain what might have happened or even that it wasn't happeningDr. Amato is very short and to the point, I like that in a doctor...I was an egg donor...did not mention that she suspected that I had OHSS...If she had, that may have affected my…Dr. Amato is very short and to the point, I like that in a doctor...I was an egg donor...did not mention that she suspected that I had OHSS...If she had, that may have affected my decision to donate eggs.

We started with Menopur 75 units in the morning, and follistim 900 and then 600 units for about a week...she won’t do more than one embryo transfer because of my age (36) and my blood pressure which tends to be higher.What I love about Dr. Krieg is that she is optimistic and compassionate (while still being realistic about outcomes).

I’m 39 with an FSH of 15 and an AMH of 0.29 and I loved that she viewed these numbers as a challenge to overcome instead of a death sentence. In fact her words were, “Don’t worry, I’ve had patients have full term healthy pregnancies with these numbers”. I loved hearing that.Dr. Krieg has a very warm and welcoming personality...She took the time to get to know me and what I did for a living and asked me what my goals were and did her best to explore…Dr. Krieg has a very warm and welcoming personality...She took the time to get to know me and what I did for a living and asked me what my goals were and did her best to explore conservative options first...She made sure to address any hormonal problems, nutrient deficiencies and hormonal problems I had.

When discussing results of testing and our treatment plan, she “shows her work,” sites research, and gives clear recommendations. She is also open to our questions and spends as much time as we need to thoroughly understand our decisions and next steps. She is very kind and compassionate.... I was given an individualized treatment plan, shown the process my doctor went to to arrive at various recommendations and then empowered to make my own decisions to chose the best route for me and my husband.Dr. Wu is very knowlegable.

She wasn't the most talkative person, but she was always there to answer questions we had, which was great ... She wasn't the one to usually initiate conversations, so we learned to have a list of everything we wanted to know for visits. We saw her very rarely, and mostly dealt with nurses or other doctors, though she was our main doctor.As a gay couple, we found Dr. Amato to be welcoming, helpful, knowledgeable and professional.

We were very happy with her both in terms of outcome and patient experience. Given that we lived out of state, she was especially accommodating in setting time to consult before we chose OHSU, to meet during treatment, and to arrange for skype/phone communication whenever possible.My doctor [Dr. Wu] was aggressive and I liked that.

Follow up was my biggest frustration-- She [Dr. Amato] and the rest of the OHSU team never finalized protocols until I was mid cycle (i.e. had been on BC for a week or two) which meant I was in the dark and I was always scrambling to get medication in time. Conversations after failed pregnancies weren't very sympathetic, after the third chemical pregnancy she suggested I go to another doctor.Dr. Wu immediately made us feel comfortable from the get-go at our first appointment.

She allowed us to tell our story without interruption and then very thoroughly and compassionately explained to us what we were up against and offered several options to proceed with. .... In the beginning, we just tried Ovidrel trigger shots to see if this would help me regularly ovulate, as my endometriosis was so severe that I had stopped ovulating regularly. This didn't yield any pregnancy, so then it was recommended I go through the robotic surgery to have my Stage 4 endometriosis removed, as well as a very large peritoneal cyst.Dr. Wu showed empathy each time we didn’t get the results as we hoped, yet she was still open and honest with us as to all the possibilities, results and further options....…Dr. Wu showed empathy each time we didn’t get the results as we hoped, yet she was still open and honest with us as to all the possibilities, results and further options.... Initially Dr. Wu wanted try less invasive procedures while we worked on the process of elimination for our unexplained fertility. After all the blood work came back perfect and my husbands semen analysis was normal, we did an HSG test to ensure that there were no tubes blocked. After that test came back normal we did a cycle of letrozole to make sure that I was creating follicles and ovulation.Dr. Amato is a very practical doctor.

I have felt that our treatment has taken a…Dr.Wu continues to assist me in my infertility treatment and I have always appreciated her informative feedback with my treatment. I have felt that our treatment has taken a longer than expected time. The length of time seems to be because of unexpected changes in treatment. Although I know these bumps in the road were unforeseen, i wish that the potential for treatment to change or get cancelled was told to be before hand. I feel good knowing that Dr.Wu has her patient’s best interest and is always looking for ways to better improve their chances of conceiving.After my second IUI, I called the clinic saying I was very hesitant to do another and wanted to talk about alternatives such as IVF. I was told I was not allowed to schedule an…After my second IUI, I called the clinic saying I was very hesitant to do another and wanted to talk about alternatives such as IVF. I was told I was not allowed to schedule an appointment with Dr. Krieg until my 3rd IUI failed as per the treatment plan.... Dr. Krieg was easy to talk to and seemed helpful. I feel like she tried to give realistic (poor) odds of success with IUI. She pushed me away from doing IVF earlier on, which was unfortunate because then when I finally was able to get a meeting to talk to her about it, I was about to turn 38 and so no longer qualified for their refund programs.Dr. Hedges is compassionate, an active listener, and is willing to be pro-active in your treatment plan and care.

My only treatment with her was one cycle with a dosage of 50mg Clomid on days 3-7 of my cycle, which yielded no response, so they had me immediately do another few days of 100mg Clomid which again yielded zero response. The only other option they offered me was to do high dose injections and IUI. Which was too expensive for us to even try since I have a low chance of it working due to low AMH and a blocked tube.Dr. Wu is so personable. When you consult with her, you meet her in her office, which feels very peaceful. She remembers personal details about you, and asks follow-up questions…Dr. Wu is so personable. When you consult with her, you meet her in her office, which feels very peaceful. She remembers personal details about you, and asks follow-up questions with genuine care.... Dr. Wu first managed my care in the middle of a frozen transfer cycle with a doctor out-of-state. The first thing she did was check my vitamin D and thryoid, and immediately put me on supplements and a thyroid med for low thyroid.She [Dr. Krieg] informed us of everything possible and gave us realistic expectations. She was also so compassionate and understanding of our losses. We were with her for almost 4…She [Dr. Krieg] informed us of everything possible and gave us realistic expectations. She was also so compassionate and understanding of our losses. We were with her for almost 4 years and she made the whole process so much easier. I couldn’t imagine going through all we did without a doctor like her and her colleagues (OHSU) ... she suggested doing 3 IUI’s before moving forward with IVF. We had no luck with those and had to go through 3 rounds of IVF before having a live birth. We used clomid, lupron, Estradiol and progesterone throughput the process.We did two medicated and one natural cycle of IVF using adopted embryos [with Dr. Diana Wu]. the medicated cycles did not work well for me so doctor adjusted the protocol to use…We did two medicated and one natural cycle of IVF using adopted embryos [with Dr. Diana Wu]. the medicated cycles did not work well for me so doctor adjusted the protocol to use the natural cycle which is when we were finally able to transfer the embryo. However the embryo was fairly low quality and did not stick...The doctor was pretty solid but I think she was overstretched because there was a lot of miscommunication through her nurse. And I got a lot of wrong information from her nurse as well. One example of this is missing starting a medication on time because nobody communicated the timeline with me until a few days after it was supposed to beginShe [Dr. Wu] is very warm. Great bedside manner. But, they don't treat the male and he is 50% of the issue! They also don't use alternative medications and stick to protocols that…She [Dr. Wu] is very warm. Great bedside manner. But, they don't treat the male and he is 50% of the issue! They also don't use alternative medications and stick to protocols that may not be enough for people. I did recommend her to a friend so I like her enough but I'm not going back to her.... I had mild pcos. They don't educate you on the meds and what they're for. We used lupron, follistim, menopur, ovidrel and progesterone.Dr. Wu was very in tune to even the most subtle things that I said during consultations.

She would pick up on things like when I expressed unrealistic expectations for myself and the upcoming cycle and transfer and take the time to coach me on having a healthier mindset going into each step.... I was allowed to transfer two embryos after much consulting due to the nature of our genetic disease. I was counseled about the likelihood of a high risk pregnancy but was ultimately allowed to decide.She [Dr. Wu] was very nice in person, but we felt like we had to push to get answers or to do different tests.

We aren’t any closer to our goal than when we started there despite her telling us how easy she thought it was going to be....by the end of our 3rd cycle we felt like maybe we weren’t going in a good direction and she didn’t seem willing to change her direction or consider changing the treatment to fit me....

She did…Dr. Wu was very open to hearing how many embryos we wanted to transfer at a time, and that was discussed before we even started the process so she knew what we wanted. She did tell me that she would only transfer a maximum of two embryos as she followed the guidelines for my age. However, after that we could decide what was best for us regarding a single or multiple embryos transfer...i remember the day the nurse called me to give my husband and I a positive pregnancy result. She said over the line that Dr. Wu literally “jumped with joy” when she found out I was pregnant that morning. It so warmed our hearts to know we weren’t just numbers on a page of clients but that we were cared for in our most vulnerable times.Dr David Lee is a very compassionate and kind doctor.
