Octomom's Doctor

in Trouble TTC

So... we are moving on to IVF but we need to switch to an "in network" RE in order to get more insurance coverage.  And I can't believe who the insurance company recommended - the Octomom's doctor!!  Eek!  

However, I did some research today and luckily found another "in network" RE; his office is inconvenient and far away, but DH and I figure it's a better choice.

I suppose one could make the argument that the Octomom's doctor is good at getting people pregnant... still not going to him though.

    Don't even get me started on Octomom!!!!!! Seriously... I can go for hours and my anxiety would go through the roof, not healthy for me to even think about this....

    I thought they were investigating him for that....Why would they recommend somebody who was being investigated? I agree with you, there are much better choices, even if inconvenient!

    Eek is right! Wow! I can't believe he's still practicing after that, let alone recommended by your insurance company!

    I talked to my current RE this morning and apparently the Octomom doctor is about to get his license taken away!  Anyway, our RE has agreed to work out a deal with us since the insurance won't cover her - yay!
