shady grove lab closing dates over holidays

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know when the Shady Grove lab will be closed over the holidays? I am trying to figure out what is their cut off date for doing IVF in November/December.

Thanks!

I don't know the exact dates but I believe they are closed the last two weeks of December. Or last week Dec first week of Jan. I am about to start my first IVF cycle with Lupron stop protocol and my estimated egg retrieval is mid December. Dr told me they leave a buffer for cycles that start in November to make sure they are completed before they close. They are still open for monitoring through the two weeks the lab is closed.
