[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've heard good things about GW.  I had an initial appointment with Shady Grove, and I was treated like crap.  They told me I was too old and showed me the door.  However, they knew my age when I set up the appointment.  So it was a total waste of time (and we waited for months for the appointment) to be told in 2 seconds, very rudely, that we were "too old."  We then were referred to Columbia Fertility.  What a difference!  We now have twins.  So I would stay far, far away from Shady Grove.[/quote]

Sorry to hear that, but what do you mean by too old? Using your own eggs or donor eggs? After certain age, it is unethical for doctors to recommend using your own eggs. And if you find one, you want to stay away from that doctor. I know this from my experience. I can now look back and realized how unethical it was for the doctor at GW to recommend an IVF procedure. He told us what we wanted to hear. Our insurance did not cover it, and it was self pay. When the cycle was not successful, he wanted to set up another cycle. We left. Instead we went to SG who recommended donor egg program. We were successful the first time. So glad we did![/quote]
