    you can research success rates for local clinics at the SART link below:

     https://sart.org/frame/detail.aspx?id=3893

     there is lots of infertility information and support via Resolve - general link below -

    Where are you? I went to RMA in Troy, but wasn't comfortable there so I switched to Michigan Comprehensive Fertility Clinic (in Dearborn and Clinton Twp). I was successful there with Dr. Jones. LOVED the nurses there, they're who you deal with the most. GL!!

    I was also a patient of Dr. Jones, I really liked him.  The office staff was great as well.  The helped me figure out how to get my insurance almost everything.  I didn't end having to have IF treatment, but that is another story.

    Ditto Sart.org. When it comes down to it, success rates are what matter the most. Pick the clinic by you with the highest rate. That's coming from someone who disregarded Sart's stats and it took me 3 rounds of IVF before I was successful. I ended up at IVF MI in Rochester, but any clinic with similarly high success rates would be fine. I've heard good things (and some bad, but no place is perfect) about all of them.

    I'm at CFC also, but I see Dr. Hayes. I also really love the nurses!! I've had nothing but good experiences so far. We're doing our first IUI next cycle.

    Jumping in a little late on this one....
    I went to the Michigan Center for Fertility and Women's Health in Warren, Michigan. https://mifertility.com/

    Dr. Carole Kowalczyk was very nice and the technicians there were great. A lot of my testing and appointments were early before work, which was helpful.

    I could not say enough good words about RMA in Troy.? Dr. Wolf is AMAZING.? She was so kind and caring.? She would always give me hugs and make me feel completely comfortable.? There staff is wonderful as well.? I'm now in my 13th week because of them.

    I  just saw Dr. Wolf for the first time today.  She seems very nice.  I'm nervous and scared though. Congrats on your pregnancy!

     

    ps)South Seas Resort in Florida?  I've been there...it is so awesome!

    Former patient of Dr. Michael Mersol-Barg in Birmingham. Amazing and extremely intelligent doctor. I have lots of friends who were successful with him as well (many on their first cycle!)

    GL!
