Clomid vs ovary drilling

Hello, wanting some advice on clomid vs ovary drilling. I have PCOS and the doctor has recommended ovary drilling after a year of TTC. I have never taken clomid and would honestly prefer medication to surgery, unless there is some crazy benefit to drilling as opposed to medication? Anyone have any experience with this? Success stories?? Thanks ladies!

P.S. another thing to note is that my mom has PCOS and gotten pregnant with 4 of her 5 kids using clomid? Maybe a positive sign? :)
