Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin

Dr. Bosler was wonderful to work with. She not only understood my goals and took the time to learn my health history, but she also took into account my personal circumstances (such as finances and insurance coverage) and helped me factor that into my decision making. She clearly laid out my chances and risks with each course of treatment, and when I didn't conceive within the first few tries, she consulted with other doctors both within and outside the practice to help determine what further testing might be wise and which approach might be best for next steps. When I didn't see her at my last appointment (due to an unexpected emergency), she sent me a very kind congratulatory note. In short, she was wonderful to work with, and made me feel in control and well advised.

Don't be afraid to ask questions - the doctor is willing to spend time to help you understand your best options.

I did six cycles of IUIs with donor sperm. My test results showed no expected fertility problems and were very good for my age, but my long and slightly irregular cycles prompted Dr. Bosler to suggest using Clomid to increase the chances of ovulation. Cycles 1 and 2 involved 50 mg clomid days 3-7, monitoring ultrasounds to track follicle growth, a trigger shot administered when lead follicle was at least 18 mm, with IUI the next day (days 17 and 18). Both cycles resulted in negative HPT. Cycles 3 and 4 still used 50 mg clomid on days 3-7, but ovulation was tracked using ovulation predictor kits at home (at my request). These cycles had later IUIs (days 20 and 21). Both resulted in negative HPT. At this point, I had another consult with Dr. Bosler, who, after speaking with another doctor in the practice, Dr. Strawn, ordered some additional tests to look at cortisone and testosterone levels. Due to some slightly high results, I was referred to an endocrinologist outside the practice, eventually getting a PCOS diagnosis. After that diagnosis, Dr. Bosler met with me again to discuss options, looking at both my test results and what was financially feasible for me. We decided to continue with IUIs. Cycles 5 and 6 were on 5 mg Letrozole, which produced more follicles for me than clomid. There were monitoring ultrasounds for both rounds and a trigger shot with the IUI the next day. Cycle 5 was a negative HPT, but cycle 6 was a success, with a positive HPT followed by doubling beta tests.

The clinic provided a complete overview of all costs, from testing to procedures, with prices for insured and uninsured patients. My testing costs were covered by insurance, so I do not know the totals for those. My IUIs were $800 each, not including monitoring or the trigger shot, which were covered by insurance.

Dr. Bosler has been very supportive from our first consultation. She took the time to walk us through all our family-building options as an LGBT couple and has been sensitive and responsive to our needs. She's warm and empathic, with a confident and relaxed presence.

Don't hesitate to ask questions!

Fertility panel; IUI cycles with donor sperm and letrizole, Hysterosalpingography

IUI cycle was around $1400 out of pocket

She was very sympathetic from the get go to what I was going through and assured me she would try to figure out what was going on and how we could fix it. Her testing felt very thorough and complete. She took her time during all of my appointments and I never felt like she was rushing to leave the room and go to her next appointment.

Be prepared for her to thoroughly run through testing to ensure a proper diagnosis.

We had planned to use Letrozole because my egg count indicated I was not ovulating regularly. Because my other testing and my husbands sperm count/motility came back normal, we thought it best to then do monitored IUI for one cycle and reassess after the one cycle whether or not there not there needed to b monitoring.

A single cycle of IUI without monitoring was around $750-$1,000. A single cycle of IUI with monitoring was around $1,200-$1,500.

Out of all the doctors I saw at this clinic, doctor Bosler was my favorite. She felt like a friendship, rather than always talking at me. She could predict questions I may have & helped me to feel like I was heard and understood.

If bedside care and a relationship with your doctor is important to you - see doctor Bosler. You won’t regret it!

Doctor Bosler did all my testing and found a hydrosalpinx. My right tube wasn’t completely blocked so we moved forward with an IUI with letrozole 5mg days 3-7, & 2 ultrasounds to check ovulation. We triggered ovulation at the second ultrasound. We just found out the IUI did not work. We are starting our second IUI.

An IUI costs around $1,200-1,500. We have insurance and haven’t seen the bills to know what we will pay out of pocket.

There was a reason we were with Dr. Strawn for many years and many cycles, he was great. We liked his straight forward answers to our questions. He didn't treat us as a number, he remembered us every time we were in and when we did become pregnant he was just as excited as we were.

Look into the multi cycle packages

I don't remember details but I do remember being monitored closely and the doctors making decisions based on the ultrasound and blood work. I even had a cycle stopped once because of polyps and the doctor felt I had a better chance with IVF with them removed.

It was many years ago so I am sure they have changed or I could be wrong....1 fresh cycle was $18,000 + the cost of medication. 2 fresh and 2 frozen cycles were $30000 + the cost of medication + the cost of anesthesia.

I think they wouldn't do more then 2 embryos but we never even though of doing more then 2. We did 1 and 2.

She is very honest and up front with the risks and sets realistic expectations. She is thorough with her work ups and testing and describes all tests and procedures fully. She is professional and kind.

She can seem very clinical and blunt, but she just wants you to have a full picture of the process.

We went through all the STD and genetic testing. There was a semen analysis and I had an HCG and HSN to find blocked tubes and to assess my uterus. All of these were done to confirm that IVF is the best option.

It is $10k for one retrieval and $3k for each transfer. The meds run between $3k and $5k.

My case requires a frozen transfer of a single embryo to mitigate the risk of Hyperstimulation.

She was always personable and efficient. She dug into lab work that other doctors had dismissed, going with a very small gut feeling that led to my diagnosis with a small pituitary tumor. She is extremely busy and difficult to get an appointment with.

She is very by the book without wiggle room

letrozole 25mg cycle days 3-7 before IUI

$800 for IUI without ultrasound. $1,300 for IUI with ultrasound. $12,000 for IVF with fresh transfer.

Dr. Bosler is simply amazing. Her kindness, compassion, and intelligence are amazing. Dr. Bosler took time to listen to my husband and I. She allowed us to be part of the decision making process. She gave it to us straight, but always allowed us to decide what we were comfortable with.

Trust Dr Bosler!!!

I participated in the Attain package.

My doctor allowed me to transfer two embryos given my recurrent pregnancy loss. That transfer resulted in my daughter. The FET I recently had i transferred 1 PGS tested embryo per Dr Boslers recommendation.

Dr. Davis was very informative at each appointment. He also had excellent bed side manner and clear cut plan. I had all of my testing done with him, blood work, HSG was complete. We just decided to wait because at the time I was only 25 and felt like it could possibly happen naturally.

Ask any and all questions he will answer them all and you will feel a sense of relief after.

Did all blood work, which came back normal except for my Vitamin D. Had to get that up before starting treatment. Also had my HSG with him and that was normal as well, didn't hurt and was super quick.

All the testing was covered my insurance, I think I had to pay 100-150 for blood work but that's it.

Dr. Strawn was honest with me from the start about what he saw as the pitfalls of the course of treatment I was seeking. With my second embryo transfer, after a miscarriage with my first, Dr. Strawn made sure to tell me that he knew how difficult my process had been and how important it was for me to be successful. I felt like he was genuinely excited for me when I reached the point of being able to be released to my OB's care.

Ask questions and at the same time trust in the process.

Given that my only reason for seeking fertility treatments is that I am a single mother by choice when it came time for me to try IVF (vs my 6 unsuccessful IUIs), my numbers all pointed to there being no reason to transfer more than one embryo.

Jayme was kind and took into consideration all of the details regarding my case. She was honest regarding the next steps that should be taken. She recommended I wave surgery for a fibroid and cyst. I was recommended to see a specialist that dealt with less invasive surgery.

Listen to what she’s saying she’s the expert. However, advocate for yourself and do your own research.

I was in clomid. It was recommended to have surgery which I did twice. No meds have been prescribed yet.

$10000

I have had 4 embryo transfers, 2 fresh and 2 frozen. Different doctors did each of my fresh and the both failed. Strawn did both my frozen and it was successful both times, for a total of three children over 5 years. He has performed 2 egg retrievals with results that were better than expected, and one surgery that went well without complication. I trust him without question and I owe my family and the lives of my beautiful, perfect children to him.

Trust him.

I had previous treatments and tests through my regular gynecologist. She reviewed everything and explained the results. She also encouraged some natural methods like weight loss which I partially credit to my success to become pregnant.

Ask questions and do your own research too.

Realistic but optimistic. Pleasant bedside manner. Responsive to needs and questions.

She is completely understanding and puts your needs in her best interest. She did a complete work up on her own and explained everything in a timely manner. She was very detailed in the work up and testing she wanted before we start IVF.

Be sure to take notes because the amount of information she goes over is tremendous!

She had me do bloodwork and a saline ultrasound. She wanted all tests to be up to date within a year. She also wanted to make sure I didn’t have anything wrong with my uterus, which in fact I do.

Pretty costly but insurance has covered some of the testing right now.

Dr. Schoyer is an excellent RE with a great bedside manner. She was thorough, responsive, and knowledgeable. She took great care to make sure things went as well as possible for me and my partner and always had time for my questions.

Dr. Schoyer is honest and realistic about your odds.

Estradiol patches started on day 8 after positive ovulation test. One patch placed every other day until CD1. Gonal f 150 (Started 8/29/19) increased to 300 on fourth day of stims (9/1/19) Menopur 75 (started 8/29) increased to 150 on fourth day of stims (9/1/19) Ganirelix 250mcg added two days before trigger. (9/4/19) Triggered on (9/8/19) 10,000 hcG (pregnancy test the following morning was not strong positive. Faint line only) Egg retrieval on 9/10/19 11 follicles. 7 eggs retrieved. 1 mature, fertilized, fresh transfer day 3. Failed.

Dr. Schoyer was a clear and compassionate communicator. She was clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, as well as kind and caring. After failed treatment elsewhere, friends recommended Dr. Schoyer specifically as an IVF specialist. She reviewed our charts and made recommendations that made all the difference! We are parents thanks to her!

antagonist protocol

She made us feel like we were going to get pregnant and we did. She was very kind and knew exactly what we needed. We lost a baby and she continued to make us feel like we had options. It was a long 7 year journey that she helped us through tremendously.

Trust her, she knows what she’s doing
