Anyone have any reviews/experience with the NC center for reproductive medicine in Cary? (NCCRM) I have an appointment with Dr. Toma, a RE, and wanted to see if anyone knew of him?
Thanks!

Re: NC Center for Reproductive Medicine
Hi,
I work in the field...I was going to go to NCCRM but was advised not to after I already had an appointment set up. I went to Carolina Conceptions instead and met with Dr. Meyer. They were awesome! I had a lot of tests done there but didn't get spend much time as I got pregnant on my first cycle of femara and now have a beautiful 2 month old. Wishing you the best of luck.

I went to UNC and ended up switching to Duke. I have been much happier with the RE at Duke (Dr. Price). They did tests that UNC did not do, and found a nodule on my thyroid, which led to a thryoid biopsy. It ended up just being a cyst, but still, I was impressed that my RE at Duke found it, when the RE at UNC never even palpated my thyroid.
I haven't been to CC or NCCRM, so I can't comment on them.

I agree about Duke and Dr. Price. I highly recommend them to anyone.

I bet I know who you are talking about! She was rude to me on the phone one day. I asked her what her name was, she stated "Michelle, but there is more than one here" Basically saying if I was going to complain they wouldn't know which Michelle I was talking about.

Like ECU and Veronica, I go to Duke Fertility Center. They have been wonderful throughout TTC#1 and #2 and the multiple m/c's I've recently had. They also can do nearly all surgical procedures in office which is a huge plus. All their staff is wonderful. Out of the many years we've been with them, I've only had one bad experience but it was a fellow (and they come and go). I see Dr Copeland and I highly recommend her.
I do have a friend who used NCCRM and loved them. Helped her conceive 2 children!
Thanks so much everyone! I did my first round of IVF through ECU, becuase I live in Greenville, and they were horrible! Hoping NCCRM will be better.

I bet some of it is just the power a 2nd opinion. A new doctor is going to see things that the first didn't, and may run additional tests, etc.
For bedside manner, I would say UNC all the way. Dr. Price is not warm and fuzzy at all. But, he has called me, unpromted on a Saturday morning and talked to me for 20 minutes to go over things with me. Same thing happened after my thyroid biopsy - I already had the results, but he called me, on his own, just to talk over everything again. I dont know about the other doctors at Duke, but Dr. Price just seems to be very thorough and methodical, which I really respect.
