Ok this is probably typical for ALL RE offices but new to me -
My RE office assigns each patient a nurse (almost like a case worker). Jenny, my nurse, has called 3-4 times since my initial apt. to see how I'm doing, if I got the blood work in, results, etc.
Today she called to confirm our IVF consult visit. I said I know I'm being whiney but I just don't want to wait till August for our visit... she called me back 5 minutes later and guess who's got an apt. THIS FRIDAY!!!
BOO-YA!!!! (is that how you spell it? "boo ya"??)

It's not typical for me. I hate the nurse I usually have to do deal with at my current RE's office. She seems so put out by having to call me with my results and she can never be bothered to answer my questions. She also forgets to call in important prescriptions, like for Follistim. She sucks.
BUT, I'm really glad you are having a great experience so far. GL with the appt on Friday - amazing that she could move it up for you. No point in waiting when you are ready to move forward. Can't wait to hear how it goes for you.
Whoa! Talk about results!
So glad you're having a great experience at the RE & GL on Friday!!!
That's wonderful news! Sounds like you have a great doctor's office to work with and I hope this is the start of many happy posts about your RE's office. I am wishing you the best of luck for Friday.
I just have to say, I love this set up of having a nurse that is 'yours'. That way, they know your history, your story and who you are. That makes so much more sense than bouncing us around to nurses who have no idea what we're going through and think they know more about than we do.
Missed m/c 11.09 | Missed m/c 3.10 | We miss you & love you so.

wow! super great news about appointment and even better about having your own nurse! I wish mine worked like that. although all of the nurses are awesome at mine - they change all the time.
wooohoo!
That's awesome.
I don't even know how to act at a regular doctor's office anymore since I get such personal treatment at the RE and the naturopath.
