Looking for a good RE

Hi there! Popping over from 3T. DH and I have an appointment March 31 to get a referral and go over DH's SA at our OBGYN's office.

I'm leaning towards Dr. Pearlstone, as he has excellent reviews and is covered by our insurance, but I'm open to any suggestions!

Has anyone had any experience with him?

If you went to an RE:

1) Who did you see and where do they practice?
2) How long was the wait list?
3) What was your experience like?


Me: 30   DH: 29
TTC since 2010
Oct. 2012 HSG: One blocked tube, one clear
Oct. 2012 U/S: All good
March 2014 SA: Flying Colors
April  2014: Met our RE/Got our plan!
May 2014: laparoscopy/hysteroscopy removed stage II endometriosis
June 2014: IUI w/100mg Clomid (BFN)
July 2014: IUI w/100mg Clomid (BFN)
August 2014: IUI w/100mg Clomid (BFP!)
September 2014: Beta 1 at 14 DPIUI: 100
September 2014 Beta 2 at 16 DPIUI: 239
September 2014: Beta 3 at 23 DPIUI: 3,159
U/S 9/26: One healthy baby! Measuring 1 day ahead and a FHR of 119 @ 6W4D (EDD May 18)
U/S 10/26 (first OBGYN visit): Measuring 1 day behind and a FHR of 160 @ 8 weeks. Looks like an upside-down Teddy Graham!

    I am going to follow your post if you don't mind. Unless I happened to get KU in the next couple of months I will also be searching for an RE. So I'm curious what everyone has to say.

    I've seen 2 RE's - Dr. Simckes (St. Peters) and Dr. Omurtag (Wash U).  I was not happy with Dr. Simckes but LOVED Wash U and Dr. Omurtag.  I also dealt with Dr. Cooper who is amazing as well.  Hope that helps.

    TTC since 9/2011. DH - 32, me 32.

    IUI#1 (natural): BFN; IUI#2 (clomid): BFN; IUI#3 (clomid and follistim): BFN.

    IVF #1 March 2013, freeze all (OHSS).

    FET#1 June: BFN

    FET#2 August: delayed due to thin lining (6.3).  Took a few months off to try and thicken the lining with lots of estrodial.  FET#2.2 December: Cancelled due to thin lining (4.8). Two frosties left.

    *New RE* Sonohystrogram and hystereoscopy done in Feb.

    IVF #2: ER 3/4/14  ET 3/7/14, transferred 3, 3 day 9 cell perfect embryos.  No frosties.

    Beta #1 (14dp3dt) 504

    Beta #2 (21dp3dt) 11,561

    First ultrasound on 4/3/14 showed 3 sacs: one empty and two with beating hearts!!  At 7w2d, found out that one baby did not have a heartbeat anymore.  Praying that baby B makes it.  Baby B is a girl!

    EDD 11/25/14 BORN 11/29/14

    **PAIF/anyone welcomed to comment!!  Thank you.

    I saw Dr. Witten at Mercy.  There was NO wait list.  He was great and all of the nurses on staff were amazing.  I would highly recommend him.
