[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is Cornell better than shady grove?  [/quote]

I read the entire post and I still am waiting for this answer. Granted I am going into my fourth cycle with SG (two FETS-one was miscarriage and 1 fresh cycle) and would love to know what specifically makes the other clinics so much "better"?

Do other clinics do additional/extensive testing that SG doesn't? If so, what?

Is it the labs?

Change of protocol? If so, why didn't SG do it? After my last fresh cycle, we are changing my protocol after meeting with the Dr and voicing my concerns. I don't find them to be as difficult as others. I might just be a PITA patient.

I am open to going to another clinic, but need to understand what would actually change. And FWIW, I did a phone consult a few months ago with RSC in NJ and they actually said they only thing they would do differently is a split fertilization (1/2 donor and 1/2 DH).

I moved from SG to Cornell after 3 failed cycles (I dropped out of Shared Risk). I think that SG could potentially have been successful but my RE was incredibly hesitant to make any drastic changes to my high-stim protocol. I miscarried after my 1st Cornell cycle, so it wasn't a success, but the protocol was completely different and overall yielded much better results. I had follow up meetings with both clinics, since I wasn't sure if I could financially swing another cycle at Cornell. Only after my SG RE saw my Cornell records did he say he would basically follow the same protocol if I were to give SG another go. I did decide on one more Cornell cycle before moving back to SG where I'm covered (haven't cycled yet).

Cornell does offer coculture, which SG does not. I think this helped my embryos a bit. I don't think their lab is so much better, and even Dr. Davis was hesitant to denigrate SG's lab. [/quote]
