The right doctor matters when seeking treatment for infertility.

The key to finding the right doctor is knowing what to look for and what questions to ask.  You have to do your homework before you see a specialist.  There are large fertility clinics and small sigle physician practices.  Finding the right provider is a very important decision on your fertility journey.  you must try to take control of your treatment path at every opportunity.  The process of choosing your specialist is vital.
Things to consider:


  • Does the clinic report their results to SART and how are their numbers?
  • Is the physician board certified in OB GYN?
  • Is the physician board cerified as an REI?
  • Did the doctor have fellowship training with infertility?
  • Do you get to meet with the doctor upon your first visit?
  • Are you an individual or a number?  How important is this to your treatment?
  • How responsive is your physician to your questions and concerns?
Take the time to find the answers to these questions.  You can't afford to waste time, money or emotional energy with the wrong physician.
