Infertility

Calling all Southern NJ peeps!

Hi Ladies! 
Who did you choose as your RE and why do you like them?

I just finished 2 rounds of unsuccessful IVF at Cooper and have a consult scheduled with Dr. Check (Cooper) and Dr. Manara before round 3.

Would love to hear the thoughts of others.
Me:41 DH:54
Married: 2005
TTC: 2006
Infertility: Male Factor, poor morphology
First IVF/ICSI February 2016 BFN
Second IVF/ICSI May 2016 BFN
Third IVF/ICSI October 2016 BFN
Fourth and final IVF/ICSI December 2016 converted to an IUI for poor response BFN
Fourth and final IVF/ICSI take two, January/February 2017 converted to an IUI for poor response BFN
Fourth and final IVF/ICSI take three, April/May 2017...third time's a charm??

    I'm in central NJ but my sister and both go to Dr Martinez and Ziegler at the reproductive science center of NJ. I go to Long Branch office and she the Toms River. She got pregnant after her first IUI (low amh levels). I'm onto IVF and one of our friends got pregnant with them on her first fresh cycle (mild endo)

  • Hi. I live in South Jersey, but my RE is from Penn Fertility Care in Philadelphia (Market street location). It is only 25 minutes from my house. I was diagnosed with secondary infertility with a low AMH (.5) and my DH has severe MFI. Our case was said to be "challenging". *TW* We beat all odds, I'm currently 12 weeks pregnant. We absolutely loved our office from the reception staff, nurses, to the doctors. My RE was Steven Sondheimer.. Who has been practicing in infertility for decades!

    I live in SJ and chose Dr.Manara for my RE. We had MFI and went right to IVF. Currently pregnant on my first fresh IVF cycle. I chose him because he was one stop shop for everything. Egg retrieval and transfer all done in his office. His staff are excellent and caring and he really was just honest from the moment we had our consultation. He will tell you if treatment is possible based on your diagnosis or if he doesn't feel treatment will be successful. I plan to return when we are ready to give the LO a sibling. 
  • I go to South Jersey Fertility Center and really like it a lot. They have a few different locations. The RE's do rotate, so you won't always have the same one but they all have been super nice, reassuring, and friendly.
