    First of all, I'm sorry you need to seek a RE......IF sucks!!  Second, I don't know any of the places you mentioned.  We've used Dr. Rapisarda from Fertility Centers of IL for our past 2 pregnancies and have had great experiences each time.  He's very personable, honest and willing to listen.  

    Good luck!!

    I went to Dr. Kaplan at fertiity centers of illinois.

    He is downtown so when you need to actually see him you need to go downtown.  For example, I went once for an initial consulation.  Had a phone conference with him to review our test resutls.  Went a 2nd time to discuss IVF.  Went a 3rd time to meet with his IVF nurse.  We did all tests and monitoring at the FCI office close to home/work - you could do that at Oakbrook.

    I know it is a little inconvenient but I would do it again.

    Chris Sikes at FCI Oak Brook is excellent and I agree with the PP about Dr Kaplan at FCI Rivernorth. 

    Best of luck!

    We used FCI.  We live in the city and I work in the Oak Brook area so I actually was monitored in Oak Brook and all of the procedures were done in the city.  Dr. Sipe was great and so were many of the doctors there who preformed the procedures.  I am 6 months pregnant with our first and we will use them again.  We did seek other opinions, but in my opinion FCI was the best!  Good luck!

    I loved Dr Kaplan at FCI.  You can use him and still be monitored at FCI. I definitely would NOT recommend Dr.  Sip*e at Oakbrook.
