[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I am a real Dominion patient who actually didn't even consider going there initially BECAUSE they advertised on the radio stations I listen to when I'm driving! They have one commercial, in particular, that I absolutely cannot stand.

My GW OB/GYN referred me to the GW clinic. I initially liked my GW RE but found the monitoring process extremely impersonal (albeit rather efficient). However, what level of satisfaction I had with my RE and the GW clinic tanked after I had 2 back-to-back losses (and received essentially no support from my RE and nurse with one that was a 7 wk miscarriage) and it became clear my case was more complicated than my RE initially expected. It became abundantly clear that I was not going to get the care/help I needed from that RE. We debated switching to a different RE in the practice who had I liked when she did one of my procedures, but I decided that wouldn't help my on-going frustration with the nurses (I asked to switch after the first one gave me blatantly wrong information, and the second one turned out to be a poor communicator overall-which also doesn't work when you're doing fertility) or everything I despised about their monitoring process.

We did consults at Columbia Fertility and Dominion Fertility, and I chose Dominion. Everything about my experience there was better than my experience at GW. My own RE did all my procedures and my ultrasounds after I became pregnant, morning monitoring was calm and private, and they don't assign you a specific nurse--the nurses all work as a team. For me it was 100% worth it (my baby conceived with the help of Dominion is due in 3 weeks).

Remember that for every one of us who had a bad experience one place and raves about the place they switched to, you're apt to find someone who went the opposite direction (i.e., bad experience at Dominion who is thrilled with GW). I would say it's worth doing a consult and trust your instinct.[/quote]
