[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Transporting the embryos in and of itself is not a big deal and I would not worry about harming the embryos.  Transportation is generally very, very safe.  It can, however, be a massive administrative pain.  You will need to determine whether the new clinic will accept the embryos from a different clinic.  Typically the accepting clinic will want to review your file and some other info from the sending clinic in order to determine whether they will accept.  Trying to get all of the records from the initial clinic might be difficult and take some time.  The review time at the accepting clinic can also be very slow (I recall SGF said that it would take 120 days to review after they got all of the records; CCRM, however, was quite fast).  The transfer process is relatively easy and I personally would not be too worried about any competent RE doing the transfer if you've had success in the past.  I'd think it is a matter of lesser evils (non-responsive clinic that already has your embryos vs. long wait time for consult at new clinic + potential long wait time to determine if new clinic will accept your embryos).  But, if you can't even get your current clinic to answer your emails or phone calls, that sounds like a problem.    [/quote]
I was turned down by the fancy pants second opinion clinic in my city because they want to make money off stimming i.e. I already had embryos

The embryos are in an embryo storage facility right now, moving them was not a big deal. Very transactional. The first clinic was happy to see me go (major misconduct on the part of the RE, I am planning on suing). [/quote]
