Georgia Center for Reproductive Medicine

Strengths: The nurses are compassionte. Weaknesses: Dr. Blohm's attitude and bedside manner are the pits. Do your own research because your not going to get support from him.

Mainly, because of his bedside manner. He was way too blunt and seemed more concerned with the outcome than me as a person. Yes I realize the outcome is important, but the time, money, and how I was treated during these procedures is important too.

The saving grace for Dr. Blohm's practice is his nurses. They were wonderful.

He kept telling me "you were dealt a bad hand of cards " at every visit. It was frustrating because I know my problem, I need him to help me fix it or give me an answer in a compassionate way to help me. I was unhappy with his annoyed bedside manner and his gruffness. I did nothing wrong. I felt as though I was in the military, with his direct dry answers. I not in the military and I felt like a new recruit. I am woman who has a medical condition and I expect a level of concern and comfort for my well-being. After the failure of our IVF process, he came to deliver the news while I was lying on the bed, by myself. My husband was in the waiting area and he gave me the news still recovering. I felt like I was rushed and he should have been more compassionte in his delivery. I'm a big girl and can take almost anything, but to tell me my eggs are poor and there's probably no chance I'll ever get pregnant was hard. The experience with him was quite gruelling. I will not going back to him even though he supposedly is the best here in Savannah. Not again!

Be prepared to have a thick skin.

He had given me quite the dose of drugs. Follostim each day Menopur that started after the follicles were stimulated Ganarellix Progesterone injections Doxycycline - which made me sick and he told that was normal and to keep taking it... I felt as though I was having an allergic reaction. When I asked for pain meds, because I had just had surgery, he made it sound like I shouldn't be in pain and I was just asking for drugs. I didn't ask him for a narcotic, he just assumed I wanted one. I wanted the pain to go away. I was in pain, I wanted him to tell me what to do.

I don't remember. My insurance covered the IVF-about half of the expenses. I know the meds were expensive.

He's very good at what he does but understand he does not have the latest technology in terms of testing and embryology lab. He's kind of old school, but does get babies. Prepare yourself for abruptness and his frankness.

Dr. Blown is there to get you pregnant, yes. He lives and breathes fertility. However some follicle checks he wouldn't even speak to me. Being completely hormonal didn't help but at least say good morning.

Nurses keep this place going. Had it not been Whitney and Dr. Blohm's wife, Caroline, I would have had a mental breakdown.

Dr. Blohm has had success with my friends, but we did not. I didn't even see him on my egg retrieval day but he must have seen me! We ended up with a second trimester loss. I went for reconsult and he didn't even seem to care.

Don't expect any bedside manner. Expect tough love. At age 33, he told me my eggs were getting old, even though we were male factor. Prepare your heart to take a beating from his abruptness. Some of my friends like his frankness. I don't think it was for me.

We use lupron and hcg trigger. Normal protocol. I produced 23 embryos and 6 blasts. But no blasts made a baby. Very sad. His strategies seem very textbook. I don't think he's very outside of the box.

$11,000 for IVF plus drugs $1800 FET

He's against eSET. I fought for two eSET and he mocked me both times. Told me I would have already had a baby had I listened to him. I was under 35, with one successful eSET already.

Clinic is clean, easy to get to, and has a great set up. The room the guy goes in could stand to be a bit bigger and in a more private spot, but in the end it worked out okay for my husband! You ring a bell and everyone can hear it so my husband didn’t like that. Rooms are big enough but cold. Everything seems sanitary which is good.

I had care that was designed just for me. Dr Blohm had nurses call, met on Sundays, and even did my iUI during Hurricane Matthew with just his wife present. That’s dedication!

They were always professional and friendly. They always made me fee comfortable.

Dr Blohm does not have a great bedside manner. He talks fast and often “above” me and he is very candid. However, he wants success for his patients and is dedicated to his job. He had the greatest compassion for me when I experienced a death of a close family member and then a miscarriage. He didn’t give up on me.

Do not get bogged down in his bedside manner or what you read on the Internet. He will be truthful with you and absolutely knows what he is doing. Who cares if he isn’t Mr Nice Guy. He is real. He is intelligent. And he cares that you get pregnant!

Shots to make follicles grow? A shot to make me ovulate. Don’t remember drug names.

About 3800 for a complete IUI procedure which included medicines. This did not include preliminary such as sperm testing and a laporoscopic surgery to look at my anatomy

I found everyone on the staff of the clinic to be so friendly and compassionate. The clinic was clean and well organized. I highly recommend it.

I felt like a human because I was treated with respect. The office staff and the doctor were so nice.

The nurses were friendly, knowledgeable and answered questions without hesitation.

Dr Blohm is very honest and straight forward. He doesn't sugarcoat things. He may not have the best bedside manner but I always knew what to expect and he kept me well informed of everything.

If you need someone to hold your hand and to tell you that everything will work out, Dr Blohm is not the doctor for you. However, if you want someone who is knowledgeable and will tell you the truth, he is the best.

I had a low ovarian reserve, so IUI with fertility medication was the best option for me, especially considering my age and the fact I was using donor sperm. We started on low dosages the first month but they were adjusted for the second month since the first attempt wasn't successful.

Doctors visits, medications and donor sperm cost me approximately $4000 per month.

The weaknesses would be that they are very busy. The strength is that they are very knowledgeable and each area knows what is going on. The front receptionist knows why you are there just like the nurse knows when your next appointment is. They communicate well.

The practice is very busy so it may not be as personable as I would prefer.

Smaller staff who are compassionate and knowledgeable. Anytime I have ever had a question they are there and if they dont know the answer they usually find out and call back within a few hours.

He is very straightforward and to the point. He does not sugar coat anything. But his success rates are high and that is more important. He isn't there to hold your hand but he does come up with a plan and a backup plan that suits you.

Dont expect hand holding. He is very blunt.

I dont understand this question....

Medicated cycles like with Clomid were around 700.00 each. Injections and IUI cycles are around 2500.00 each.

He's very blunt

Strengths: he knows what he's doing. He's aggressive with treatment. He doesn't sugarcoat. Weaknesses: very blunt, can come off as cold or uncaring. Very rigid in his treatment plans. Has a lot of patients so tends to run fast. You have to make sure to ask specific questions

He is blunt but look past that. He isn't rude, just a scientist. He is good at what he does and he's a perfectionist. In the end, his success rates prove he knows what he's doing. I go to him to get results, not have some dr sugarcoat everything

Three rounds of follistim with timed intercourse. 1st round I ovulated too early so he added Lupron to prevent that. Ovulated when supposed to 2 & 3 round but no pregnancy. I have pcos but no structural issues. Due to age 34 and long history of infertility, he moved us on to IVF which we start August 30th

Everything covered by tricare except IVF He gives a military discount so we are expecting 11-12k for IVF

The clinic is awesome, very organized and clean.

Dr. Blohm was very professional and explained everything to me. He was very open and honest.

The nursing staff at Dr. Blohm was awesome. Every time I called, they answered all of my questions without hesitation.

When I first met Dr. Blohm, he was very blunt and direct. He explained my options and chances at getting pregnant. It was a very difficult time for my husband and I, I was also very emotional. During the course of my treatment, I felt very comfortable with Dr. Blohm and appreciated his honesty. When I loss my children, he was very compassionate.

When you first meet Dr. Blohm keep in mind he's honest and direct. Don't let this stray you away. He's an awesome doctor.

Dr. Blohm reviewed by diagnosis of PCOS and used a targeted plan for me. He wanted to ensure I did not develop Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome. Both of my IVF cycles resulted in postive pregnancies.

About $7,000

During my first IVF Cycle Dr. Blohm did a multiple embryo transfer. This resulted in twin pregnancy and miscarriage. During my second cycle he advised on a single embryo transfer.

The clinic is very well managed. The office staff is very friendly and seem to work very well together. They help explain anything that you might have questions about. They are essentially always open due to the different protocols going on and come in on the weekends often.

Can tell that he really cares whether or not his patients become pregnant and ultimately have children.

They are very compassionate and helpful along the way

Dr Blohm is an amazing physician who truly wants the best, safest outcome for his patients. You can see the wheels turning when he is trying to figure out the best approach to take. He is truly brilliant and has a wonderful staff.

You will not be treated as a number. He has a very dry, witty sense of humor.

I really don’t remember

I don’t remember the specific costs but paid for meds separately.
