[quote=Anonymous]I recently had a day 6 transfer at Shady Grove. The doctor doing the transfer told me we would know later that day how many, if any, embryos survived for freezing. I called a couple times but didn't receive an answer until several days later (none survived).

In the meantime, the financial person called to tell me I owed money for assisted hatching. No one had told me they had done assisted hatching in the first place. The doctor confirmed they had when I spoke with her.

Is this normal?

I'm frustrated as well because when the nurse called to tell me it would be a Day 6 and not Day 5 transfer, she made it sound like it was good news since it meant I had so many great embryos they could afford to wait until the next day. I'm wondering if that's why she didn't tell me they would do assisted hatching-- when I responded saying it was my understanding that Day 6 was reserved for slow growing embryos she immediately told me that was "outside her area of expertise" and that I could talk to the doctor.

I thought I liked Shady Grove. But (and perhaps it's the hormones talking) I am starting to feel mistreated.[/quote]
