[quote=Anonymous]Two women I have talked with through this process had Dr. Sacks but their transfers and retrievals were while he was on vacation and Butler did them.  It can happen.

I think having your doctor for procedures is one of CFA's draws that I've seen on these boards, though, and I can see the appeal of that.

I'm ok with different doctors for procedures because that gives me confidence that it's a 24/7 operation and no decisions on timing of retrieval or transfer will be based on my own doctor's schedule, they can do them when the timing is right because they always have cover.

What really, really bothered me was that my first doctor at Shady Grove happened to be on for monitoring, I was so glad to have my OWN doctor, and she didn't know that I was in for a day 3 baseline monitoring, and said the medication wasn't working--I told her I hadn't yet taken any.  It was also an ill-advised clomid cycle--I'm over 40 and it produced ONE follicle, which I do on my own.  All subsequent doctors with whom I've consulted (three in total) said they wouldn't use clomid on someone with my numbers.  I changed doctors after that cycle.

Given the cost/insurance coverage limits, I don't think it's worthwhile to do a cycle with a doctor or clinic you can't trust 100%.  I learned the hard way.
