[quote=Anonymous]Currently a Dr. F. patient.  First IVF failed and wasn't particularly successful (only had one to transfer and one to freeze). Second IVF, he switched up the protocol and I have 6 frozen.  Doing an FET at the end of April (he didn't want to do a fresh transfer this time to let my body heal).  I totally echo the sentiment that he is a perfectionist. He will start conservatively with your first cycle and if it doesn't work, he takes personal care and attention to change the protocol.  This doesn't happen at other clinics generally as I understand it. You will not get a calendar, you will not be fit into a one size fits all box, etc.

We had insurance for 3 cycles, so it's easy for me to be down with Dr. F because while I was beyond devastated when the first cycle failed, I knew we had 2 more chances to get it right and he did on round 2 (just in terms of response - I am not yet pregnant so can't comment on that!) If you are on limited funds and just want to play the numbers game, go to Shady Grove. They do the shared risk, 6 cycle for I believe 22K.  GWU does not do that.  But, you will get personalized attention and a doctor that really, really wants to get you pregnant.  I have never for one moment felt like Dr. F did not care about us or about helping us get pregnant.

I hope this helps! Happy to answer any more questions you have :)   [/quote]
