Finding a Specialist

I have had two miscarriages and is it taking me a while to get pregnant- we have been trying for 2.5 years total.  Now, after two bad experiences with two different OBGYNs, I have decided to go to a fertility specialist.  I am trying to decide between RBA and Emory Reproductive.  I have called both of them on the phone and they were both very helpful.  I have heard good things about RBA but Emory may be more cost effective for me because of my healthcare benefits.  Can anyone recommend one over the other?  

Re: Finding a Specialist

  • I highly recommend Emory. I got the run around from RBA and finding Emory was great.

  • I conceived my first through Emory. It was a great experience. I got pregnant on the second round. For my second, I conceived through Georgia Reproductive Specialists. Even though it took three rounds, it was slightly less expensive and just as pleasant an experience.

  • I really liked dr Shapiro at RBA. I was fortunate where we were able to get pregnant on our own but the support and care I got was what helped the most as I had two losses prior. I also went to obgyn of Atlanta so the ease of having both offices in the same building and the doctors knowing each other made it easier as well.

  • I am with Dr. Toledo at RBA and cannot speak highly enough about him and his staff. I have 3 friends who also went to him or Dr. Shapiro and had great success.
  • I conceived my first through ACRM. I conceived after my second round of IUI. A friend conceived her twins after her first round of IVF.

    Great staff, we loved it there.

    I just finished w/ Dr Toledo and loved him and we finally got our baby boy on the way now after having so many odds against us. I had to have 2 surgeries, a 3 month course of Lupron injections, the IVF which I did not respond well to (only 4 eggs) & two transfers w/ the endo scratch procedures. It takes about 3 months to get in to see him though. It took well over a year to complete everything as each step had to be done w/ the beginning of a cycle.

    By the way I have an extra 900IU Gonal F pen that has never been opened that I didn't need and would love to give away soon vs just throwing it away...especially since they are so expensive. I believe it expires at the end of 2015 so if anyone is interested, private message me.
