East Coast Peeps - Need some help

Anyone out here in the Northern VA/DC area?  I have some friends that are just starting their TTC journey, and suddenly got transferred from St. Paul to Arlington for work.  They are looking for an RE that will be effective, and accepting of them as a lesbian couple TTC.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

    There are a few of us from that area!

    We used Shady Grove Fertility. There isn't an office in Arlington, but we went to the DC office and saw Dr. Widra. Shady Grove Fertility is a HUGE practice with multiple locations and is often described a fertility factory - but they have a large number of lesbian couples - so much that they just started a lesbian support group.  The large size didn't bother us - and actually worked to our advantage since they had really early morning bloodwork/ultrasound appointments.

    Good luck to your friends!!! :)

    We use Shady Grove as well and love them.  They are definitely worth using.
    We had three BFN in the Fall of 2011. It is back on to some baby making come June. Swim little fellas, SWIM!!!!
