Milwaukee ladies: recommend your RE

I can't believe we are even thinking about #2 but here we are.  My RE died, so I'm looking for info.

 

Our history is mfi and a clotting disorder.  

TIA!

    We see Dr. Wittmaack in West Allis and I think he's wonderful.    The reason I liked him is that he is so personable and really made the whole process less nerve wracking.  His staff is great too. He has office hours at a few Aurora locations.

     I haven't studied his ivf rates or anything, so if that's a concern you'll want to look into that to compare.

    But really, he seems very down to earth and that helped a lot, especially with putting DH at ease.  He even remembered me when I went back to him for PCOS issues and now we're seeing him again!

    Good luck.

    We've probably talked about this in person, but if not, I saw Dr. Robb at Froedtert.  I have my daughter because of him so I guess I can't complain!

    Thanks ladies! 

    Sara-you and Carrie both recommended Dr. Robb.  I'm going to check him out . . . I'll keep you posted.

    I liked Dr. Robb as well, unfortunately, you don't really get to pick between him and Dr. Strawn (who I can't stand).   But, I saw them years ago so maybe that has changed.

    We did our IVF with Dr. Sherbahn in Gurnee.  At the time he had the highest success rates. 

    It's exciting that you guys are trying again!

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

    We saw Dr. Hayes (Dr. Wittmaack's partner) and we thought she was great. We also loved her staff.

    Good luck!

    Dr Wittmaack did my SHG and he was very nice. as i've said before, i think dr haye's bedside manner improved considerably between R & E.

    I also went to Sherbahn at AF (in Gurnee).  It was worth the drive, after I'd been to two closer clinics.  GL!

    I've said it before and I'll say it again... I do not recommend Dr H.ayes for more complex dx. She was completely unhelpful to me, tried to send me straight to DE, worthless, waste of time.

    Does any one know what Dr. Wittmaack or his partners IVF costs are? We are going in for our first consult? Thank you!
