Infertility

what great IF clinics are in NYC???

DH's cousin found out that we have been contemplating CCRM.  She lives in Manhattan, and has graciously offered to let us stay with her as long as necessary, if I find a clinic in NYC that I would like to try.  She's also offered to help with the costs of another cycle (should it be needed) wherever we choose to go.

ANyone have any info for me???

Re: what great IF clinics are in NYC???

  • I know Cornell is the biggest one.  I think NYU also has a good one.

    I go to an individual doctor who is the director of a different clinic.  I'd be happy to PM his information to you if you'd like.

  • I was told just yesterday that my RE is pretty much throwing his hands up on my case.  I too have family in NYC that has offered the same thing.  I got a folder in the mail from Cornell and something else from SIRMS.  I'm going to look at both of those.  Who knows we could end up going to the same place!  Good Luck to you!!
  • I have friends who have cycled at Cornell and ended up coming to NJ to go to RMA, which also has a NYC office. NYU is also highly regarded.
  • I'm a Cornell girl.  I love my RE and had a really good experience there (obviously no BFP but they did everything they could to help DH).

    I think CCRM and Cornell are the 2 best clinics in the country.  I guess it depends on your dx.  If you were going to do genetic testing on embryos then I would go to Colorado.

    There are many Cornell ladies on SaIF if you want to get more info as my experience is with the MFI side. 

    It is a smoothly run machine and you don't get a lot of hand holding but my IVF nurse was great, my RE always called back same day when I had questions.  Instructions were very clear and easy to follow. 

    Why are you asking?  I think your ku'ed :)

    If you come to NYC we could meet :)

    It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

  • They say Cornell is the best in NY area.  That is where I am going on high recos however, I don't start my first cycle with them until next week (unless the pregnancy gods shine upon me this month) so far they have been very clear, the dr. spent oodles of time with us, she called me back immediately and the nurses were great (the one that did my b/w and helped with the u/s and the one that did the injectables class)  I go to one of their satelittes for monitoring and don't get the feel of that big office vibe, but I hear that when you go to NYC for actual procedures, that is the case. 
  • I have a friend that has had 2 babies using Cornell IVF.  If they took my insurance I would be there in a heartbeat (even though we have not gotten to IVF yet).

    Good luck!

  • Cornell or NYU. There are other clinics offering slightly more alternative options too like SIRM and New Hope Fertility.

    As much as I'd love to meet you if you came to NY, I think CCRM is supposed to be better on the testing front for unexplained or complicated cases. For instance, I would have preferred Cornell to do some testing between my failed IVFs so I wouldn't be where I am now.

    But you won't need a new clinic =)

  • Cornell and NYU are among the top 5 in the country. Cornell really specializes in AMA and deal with a lot of over 40 ladies. Don't get me wrong-they do a fantastic job with anyone and co culture is only done there if you are interested in that. We live about 2 hrs. from NYC and I chose NYU because my local RE said I should be fine there since I am only 38. It's a little smaller and easier to deal with IMO-I have had friends who have cycled at both centers.

    Good luck!
