    2 IUI 1 IVF (Frozen)
    Center COLUMBIA
    November 24, 2016

    Front desk staff, nurses and sonographers are very friendly and helpful. Sometimes, the wait to be seen seemed excessive, though. In regards to communication, at times it was difficult to get a quick response/answer to important questions. The nurse initially assigned to our case failed to respond to phone calls or emails within the allotted time frame, so we switched to a different nurse, who was better at responding (although still delayed at times). At times there seemed to be a disconnect between our primary physician, nurse and other members of the team. The few times we were able to meet with our primary physician we were very happy. She was thorough and clear with her explanations. The one major complaint was when we were trying to decide what options we wanted for our IVF treatment (fresh vs frozen; ICSI; PGS), she failed to explain to us that opting for PGS mandated that we also had to have ICSI; it wasn't until we were meeting w/ the financial advisor that we were told that we had to have both (originally we wanted PGS w/o ICSI); and then only had 5 minutes to make a final decision as to how we wanted to proceed once we were given all the information.

    I love the staff here. They are all very kind and friendly. This facility will open its doors a little early so you can sign in and not wait in the hall. The ladies who draw your blood take their time. They want to get to know you personally. Once I was overwhelmed and filled with hormones i broke down, when i looked up it was a team surrounding me, letting me know that all will be alright. My only wish is: I would like to actually see my specialist more, other than that i would recommend this facility.

    I can’t say enough good things about this office! They are warm and friendly and genuine while maintaining professionalism. They make it easy for you to talk to them, any of them, and are always completely understanding - even when you bug them with that you think may be “stupid” questions. They are no-nonsense in that they are always open and honest about where things stand and what your options are - I’ve never been pressured into a more expensive treatment option or anything I didn’t feel comfortable with. They make it easy to ask questions and are excellent with communication of results, etc. They just have this way of making a very stressful, uncomfortable, difficult situation totally bearable. They minimize any potential for embarrassment or confusion. The office is clinical but very spa-like. From the office to the staff to the providers, this clinic is just fantastic all-around!

    Feels like being on A conveyor belt. There is one direction to go and you will be forced to follow that script. I was told that IUI was my only choice and I better get on it because I’m already 29 and I’m running out of time. They encouraged me NOT to get my under active thyroid under control before starting IUI. I left them, did my own research and got pregnant naturally.

    Not very specialized care, seems like they do the same protocol for most people even with unexplained infertility. They were not open to doing further testing even though no cause was found. They seems to just want us to pay for the standard IUIs and then move on to IVF without really knowing if it will work. I believe I have minor immune issues that would impact implantation, but they didn't believe in during further testing because those tests are generally for multiple pregnancy losses, but since I had never had a positive or loss they didn't even consider requesting more test.

    We loved Dr Esposito; however, we were appalled that IVF with ICSI and Pre Genetic Determination was the "Plan of Care" BEFORE we were even examined or test results were received! It gave us the feeling that we were nothing more than $$$$ to this practice and that they were capitalizing on people's desperation to have a baby. Having had a baby at age 19, placing her for adoption and then struggling to conceive, this was difficult to comprehend for me. It's not for everyone and that's okay.

    All of the nurses and doctors and ultrasound techs were wonderful- very supportive and helpful. There are a lot of patients and I think this helps them know what to recommend. I always took the earliest appointments to avoid longer wait times. They are fast at 7am but get backed up later in the morning. Overall they have helped me make 2 beautiful and healthy babies, so I can only thank them.

    I absolutely loved our clinic! No only was everyone professional but we were always made to feel comfortable by the doctors, nurses and staff. Jen is absolutely fabulous to reach out to about anything and everything. Dr. Browne's confidence in her personalized game plan for us as well as her gentle touch (didn't even realize she had started my procedure when she said 'all done!) left my husband and I over the moon when we got our BFP with our 1st IUI (preformed at the beginning of our DC blizzard). After 2 years of unsuccessfully ttc due to PCOS, it took Dr. Browne just 1 cycle of IUI to make my dreams come true of becoming a mommy. Emma Snow will be 6 months old this Thursday and my husband and I owe it all to the wonderful team at SG. Never did it feel like a 'business' but a welcoming and positive environment that I would recommend anyone to.

When we began treatment every single person we interacted with from the front desk, techs, nurses, and doctors, was so kind and compassionate.

    It's a big clinic which means it's very busy, but also really efficient. I could always get an appointment when I needed, and my nurse responded to emails within hours. Frank Chang was very matter of fact. My only complaint was that after a very early loss, he didn't seem to know how to handle how upset I was. However, he made up for it in expertise/successful follow up treatment.

    The doctors and nurses were very helpful. Very happy with the clinic. Dr. O'Brian was patient in listening to our questions and answering them. Kept us updated at all levels.

    Great results - somewhat poor communication Had minimal interactions with Dr Mottla but he was proactive when he needed to be

    Nurses and staff are amazing. Doctor is a little quick and does not have a great bedside manner. He is very matter of fact but forgets that many of the things being discussed can be overwhelming and emotional to the patient. Doctor is very matter of fact but lacks bedside manner. Seems to be in it for the numbers and forgets that these things can be emotional for the patient.

    This place knows what it's doing. It's large, so everyone is specialized in their area. The only thing I wanted, but didn't get was a "road map" of here's what happens first, second, third with "average" times for each step. I was so frustrated that this didn't exist and the only response was "Everyone's different." I interacted with Dr. Sagoskin very little, actually, which was fine by me since the nurses were more familiar with my actual treatment and my situation over time.
