[quote=Anonymous]I saw Dr. Abbasi from 2011-12 after a miscarriage, getting a borderline Day 3 test, and due to my age (38, at the time). I think what it comes down to is personal preference for patient-side manner. I appreciated having someone give it to me straight (as other commenters have said, she's very matter-of-fact)--I wasn't looking for much emotional support and wanted to "keep things business." She seemed very experienced, thorough, and knowledgeable. She has a dry sense of humor, which for me was a welcome break from the emotional schmutz one goes through during this process. The one caveat I do have is that you'll need to ask her to explain some medical terms because she can gloss over that stuff. Abbasi successfully treated my hormone issues and I conceived naturally a year after my miscarriage. Crystal, her nurse, is great too. Also, just an opinion on CFA in general: since it's a smaller practice you get to see the doctor during your visits. I never had an issue with trying to reach Abbasi (she's available by email). I had a friend who was going to Shady Grove for similar fertility issues, and most of the time she never made it past the nurse.[/quote]
