NP. I guess, but I've heard a lot of complaints about JH fertility from people I know who have used them. Their Yelp and Google reviews are bad. This thread seems to suggest multiple people have found problems with their services (including supervision of residents, apparently), and it seems like their success rates are way below other providers in the area. Would you take the risk and blow $25k on them? I wouldn't.

My neighbor used them and spent a ton of money without success. It's the Pinto of IVF clinics.

I went there last year. Treatment was unsuccessful. Hopkins have (unsupervised) fellows do transvaginal ultrasounds. These were incredibly painful for me as they waved this wand all over the place while inside of me looking for whatever they needed to observe.

Please, please, whatever you do, do not get care at this place.

+1… Happy and healthy DD. Too many cycles at Shady Grove with the promise of a child. Tell that to our bank account. 🤬

I got pregnant at Hopkins but it took several tries. I sometimes wonder if it would have been cheaper/easier at another clinic.

I went here and it did not work. Looking to go elsewhere.

Please, please do not go here. It's filled with really really bad residents. If your doc did her/his residency at Hopkins, stay away from them too.

It was ok when I went, didn't result in a pregnancy unfortunately.

Their success rate is comparatively abysmal.

To be fair, SGF manages that by accepting a high risk of multiples.

Not sure what you are talking about. When I went, they were super cautious and highly discouraged multiples.

The success rate (live birth) per first embryo transfer for those 35 and under is 25.8%?? This place is a rip off and should be shutdown.
