have realistic expectations about wait times, he [Dr. Bundren] spends a lot of time with patients and they do things the "old school" way...we tried several medicated, timed intercourses that failed. We moved to IUI but I produced too many eggs. I tried IUI a few times before moving on to IVF...I got 18 eggs 10 fertilized with ICSI and 2 made it to Day 5, we did a fresh transfer (his partner at Bennett in OKC did the transfer. I got a positive result and the next pregnancy test indicated a lower HCG number, then it was zero. I was told that was a chemical pregnancy.
they [staff at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] seem to really care and give personalized care. They always listen to my concerns and are patient with me. When I did my IVF the surgery and my recovery was done with a lot of care. I could also really tell that it was hard on them that my pregnancy did not take... she [nurse] is incredibly knowledgeable. She makes most of the phone calls on updates, etc. I know she is a busy woman and all of us crazy infertiles probably drive her nuts with the phone calls asking questions about every little thing we feel. The rest of the nursing staff are great and they always do a great job taking my blood- which is a challenge for most.

How was your experience with J. Clark Bundren at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Bundren is always kind and caring. He is incredibly intelligent, he and his wife went through the infertility battle so I know he can relate. He is open when he is not sure about something but also confident. My husband trusts him 100% and that is saying a lot. He never gave me a hard time for going to another doctor either. He still remembers everything there is to know after all these years and I appreciate that he continuously sees me as an Gynecologist as well. I regret going to a different doctor for our second cycle, I only did it for financial reasons.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of J. Clark Bundren at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
I would tell them I 100% refer to him, but to have realistic expectations about wait times, he spends a lot of time with patients and they do things the "old school" way. They call you with every result and they are very busy. So you have to be patient, but it's worth it.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with J. Clark Bundren at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Bundren and Mary Kathryn take a lot of time with their patients and the office insists on speaking personally to patients on the phone. This may end up taking a lot of time in the waiting room and a lot of time waiting for a call, but overall this is a very positive thing since they seem to really care and give personalized care. They always listen to my concerns and are patient with me. When I did my IVF the surgery and my recovery was done with a lot of care. I could also really tell that it was hard on them that my pregnancy did not take.
Describe the protocols J. Clark Bundren used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
It has been a while since I did fertility treatments with Bundren, but we tried several medicated, timed intercourses that failed. We moved to IUI but I produced too many eggs. I tried IUI a few times before moving on to IVF. I know with IVF we used Follistim with Menopur and Progesterone. I got 18 eggs 10 fertilized with ICSI and 2 made it to Day 5, we did a fresh transfer (his partner at Bennett in OKC did the transfer. I got a positive result and the next pregnancy test indicated a lower HCG number, then it was zero. I was told that was a chemical pregnancy.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Mary Katherine)
Mary Katherine is his head nurse, she is incredibly knowledgeable. She makes most of the phone calls on updates, etc. I know she is a busy woman and all of us crazy infertiles probably drive her nuts with the phone calls asking questions about every little thing we feel. The rest of the nursing staff are great and they always do a great job taking my blood- which is a challenge for most.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
I think I have summed it up. They are "old school" which has it's positives and negatives. Some clinics have everything online, results, etc. but Bundren doesn't do this. They personalize care by calling you with test results.
Describe the costs associated with your care under J. Clark Bundren at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
I think our IVF was $16,000. We were able to finance it though, which was helpful. All of my other visits: IUI, Timed Intercourse, Laparascopy were all mostly covered by insurance (minus medications). I can't remember the cost other than it was pretty much $100 per IU 600 Ius= $600
Describe J. Clark Bundren's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
He was very safe and at my age I could do 2, but I know he is very stringent on not putting in too many embryos.

[Dr. Kallenberger] had a plan from my very first visit, which finally gave me hope after a year and a half of trying and one miscarriage...we were able to learn that I had one partially and one fully blocked tube and that we are also dealing with male factor. He was able to successfully clear my blockages through laparoscopy and we will beginning our first medicated IUI in three weeks. I completely trust in the plan he has for us!
[INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] is a very clean clinic with friendly staff. I have yet to find a weakness. The rooms are beautiful and even have little changing rooms in them...nurses are amazing. I especially love Nancy. She made me feel so much better during my laparoscopy and during my rough recovery...We had to begin by getting a laparoscopy and will be beginning our first IUI cycle soon. He plans to give me something to aid in my luteal defect, and said he will explain further at my baseline ultrasound.

How was your experience with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
As mentioned, Dr. K can seem short and stern, but he seems extremely knowledgeable and you can tell he has your your best interest at heart. I like doctors that are very to the point, but I know others need someone more soft so I can see that being a slight issue. Dr. K had a plan from my very first visit, which finally gave me hope after a year and a half of trying and one miscarriage. Instead of being in the dark about why we were successful, we were able to learn that I had one partially and one fully blocked tube and that we are also dealing with male factor. He was able to successfully clear my blockages through laparoscopy and we will beginning our first medicated IUI in three weeks. I completely trust in the plan he has for us!
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Do not be afraid to ask questions. He seems stern but he doesn’t mind questions at all and will gladly elaborate and explain things further.

So far I have had to pay $109 for my initial consultation, $50 for each appointment with him afterwards, and $350 for my laparoscopy. I have not heard the costs for my upcoming cycle yet.

Every time we have met with Dr. Reshef he takes the time to look over our chart again and make sure he remembers what we have gone through. We have had multiple losses and he reminds us that he and his wife had similar situations. He is sympathetic and does not dismiss our pain. After every loss he always said - You will have a baby. We will try again. He explains the different options we have and allows us to ask as many questions as we want.
The clinic is split. Dr. Reshef works out of two offices. His office and then Bennett Fertility. So it can be frustrating to be dealing with lots of different office people and multiple billing departments. It also means that the IVF process for billing is split. The good thing is, they are pretty transparent about what you need to pay and who you need to pay it to. So we will see how that actually goes in the next few months and see what extra bills we end up with.

He takes the time to shoot the breeze with my husband and not make everything so clinical all the time. He explains our chart and our tests results and doesn't dismiss the little things.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Be assertive and be your own advocate. This is true of any doctor you see. If you have more questions, ask them. If you don't understand, say something. Dr. Reshef is busy, we all are. If you give him the chance to be quick and in and out, he will. If you really need more time, tell him that. He will make the time for you.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef has always taken the time to sit down and talk with us for as long as we wanted. He answers all of our questions during an appointment and it always willing to sit down with us after if we need as well.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
I had already had a few losses before we came to Dr. Reshef. So we started out with just some basic testing. We did an HSG and when everything was fine he said maybe we could just try again on our own. This time we would track my BBT for ovulation and use vaginal progesterone. (In the past I had only been given pill form by another doctor.) We got pregnant. Around 6 weeks I started bleeding. Dr. Reshef met us at the hospital on the weekend and it was Christmas eve! I thought that was amazing! There was a heartbeat so we were optimistic. Came in a few days later. Still a heartbeat. Came back in a few weeks and there was no heartbeat and no growth since last time. We miscarried about a week later. A few months after that we tried Femara 2.5mg. Tracked BBT and did vaginal progesterone again. This time we did not get pregnant. I got discouraged and wanted to just try naturally again. So we did that all summer. I did not use vaginal progesterone. I had two chemical pregnancies and by late summer decided I wanted to try Femara again. We did everything the same as the first time, and this time I got pregnant. We made it until about 9 weeks until I started bleeding again, and we lost around 11.5 weeks. My husband and I talked about it and decided our next route would be to try IVF. This spring we started that journey. We are in the suppression stage right now. My husband's sperm analysis came back with low motility and low numbers. I start injectables next week. We will be using, Leuprolide Acetate, Menopur, Gonal-f and HCG. Our plan is to do ICSI, PGT-A and then a FET. I also started getting twice-weekly acupuncture, and chiropractic as well as two massages a month. I started these things about a month before we started suppression.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Beverly and Kimberly)
In Dr. Reshef's office, his only nurse is Beverly. She is great. Always willing to answer your questions and it is nice seeing the same face each time. The main nurse/care coordinator we have used at Bennett is Kimberly. She is fantastic! She is extremely helpful and compassionate. There are a few other nurses that have not been as helpful, but I don't specifically remember their names. I have had to go directly to the office a few times when I have left messages and no one has called me back. But I think this was more related to the billing department and not the nurses. They did also just lose their main billing person to another job, so that could have had something to do with it.

Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
They have a very clear breakdown of the cost of each item and procedure. They provide this to you before you even start the process. We thought we would finance and then had a really bad experience with ARC. From there we went back to the clinic and said we wanted to self pay. The billing department sat down with me and line by line went over the cost of everything and the dates of when certain items would be due.
Describe Eli Reshef's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
My doctor would like to do eSET but we are going to push for a multiple embryo transfer. They have explained the tradeoffs, and there are multiple reasons for our situation that we would like to opt for a multiple embryo transfer. One of the reasons being the fact that we have had so many losses and another being the fact that we are paying for this ourselves.

The main reason I would refer Dr. Reshef is that he is the only doctor in his clinic to perform every single ultrasound by hand and every procedure. That’s not always the case at other clinics. He even drew my blood on a Saturday morning appointment while the nurse was busy. He gives you his full attention for every appointment. He’s to the point but it’s obvious that he’s very empathetic towards all his patients.
The nursing staff [INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] is great. They are always available to answer my never ending questions or call me back as soon as they can.... My only complaint is the financial aspect. We were not a standard straightforward case though. Although I had no insurance coverage for fertility treatment, I was able to get a few things reimbursed by my insurance. Since I was requesting reimbursement after the procedure was already complete, it was not an easy process.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Be your own patient advocate. Speak up and ask questions always.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
It’s very apparent that Dr. Reshef cares for his patients. He always takes the time to answer any questions we have and never makes us feel rushed.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
We don’t actually have any known fertility problems. We are using IVF with PGD to avoid passing on a genetic decease. Because of this, we went with a standard protocol for egg retrieval and frozen transfer. I used hormone injections (Gonal-F, Lupron, and Menopur) for 11 days before my egg retrieval. For my first transfer, I used estrogen pills and then PIO injections along with daily baby aspirin. For my current transfer prep, I’m using estrogen IM injections and will begin PIO injections soon.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
The nursing staff is great. They are always available to answer my never ending questions or call me back as soon as they can. Almost all the nurses have gone through IVF themselves, so they can relate to what you’re going through.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
My only complaint is the financial aspect. We were not a standard straightforward case though. Although I had no insurance coverage for fertility treatment, I was able to get a few things reimbursed by my insurance. Since I was requesting reimbursement after the procedure was already complete, it was not an easy process. I had to do a lot of it on my own. If I did have coverage, the clinic would have handled most of it on my behalf. The other issue we had was the explanation of the financial assistance programs like ARC. We later found out patients could receive discounted pricing on treatments if they were using ARC. We paid for every thing out of pocket and received no discount for using cash. After it was all said and done, we spent almost double the amount we had anticipated it costing, and could have saved significant money by going through the loan program and immediately paying it off afterwards.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Roughly $27,000 total for egg retrieval, transfer, PGD and PGS screening.
Describe Eli Reshef's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
He sides with the current industry standard which suggests one single embryo. The only reason I transferred two, was because my first one did not survive the thaw so we transferred both so it would not dissolve in the lab.

I appreciated that he let us decide how aggressive we wanted to be, he made recommendations and explained why he did so. Our visits were sometimes short/quick, but he’s a busy man and they always got me in within a few days and I never waited more than a few minutes.
Beverly is amazing. She might be the best nurse I’ve ever had. She is the eyes and ears for Dr Reshef and she knows the patients and their concerns so well. Integrity Bennett wouldn’t be the clinic they are without Beverly.... If the physician and nurse are a reflection of the clinic as a whole I think it’s fantastic. I love the front desk staff, they’re all very sweet and compassionate. They call if there’s a question and I never have an issue getting someone on the phone. This clinic is so good at what they do.

Dr Reshef is very very knowledgeable. He is frank, but he was never rude. I appreciated the information he gave me and he never hesitated to answer any questions I asked.

If you have a question. Ask. He isn’t a mind reader and he sees SO many patients each day.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Beverly and Dr Reshef know you. Anytime you call, the front desk staff put you through to one of them or asks one of them themselves. When I came in worried even the front staff were concerned if I was okay.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
My specific problem was mild PCOS, he was confident that letrozole would work for me and it was successful in causing ovulation at the lowest dose. Even he was surprised by this. I didn’t get pregnant the first month, but I did get pregnant fairly quickly.
I had struggled for 16 months on my own (including a chemical pregnancy), because my ob/gyn didn’t realize I had PCOS, and kept saying “you’re young, you’re healthy, you’ll be pregnant soon.”
Dr Reshef made quick work of getting me to ovulate and eventually conceive.

Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
My insurance doesn’t cover fertility treatments and I hadn’t hit my deductible for the diagnostic tests and procedures, so I paid out of pocket for everything.

I always felt that he was almost as emotionally invested as my husband and I were, and his confidence that IVF would work for us was what finally prompted us to go for it.

How was your experience with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef wants his patients to get pregnant. I always felt that he was almost as emotionally invested as my husband and I were, and his confidence that IVF would work for us was what finally prompted us to go for it.
When we first met Dr. Reshef, he was ready to be as aggressive with treatment as we wanted, which was very. We had our first consultation with him in February 2016, then one IUI, laparoscopy for endometriosis, two more IUIs, then IVF, and we were pregnant by December 2017 (only taking that long because my husband and I were reticent to spend the money). He was sensitive to my anxieties and emotional turbulence and took his time in making sure I understood what was happening then and next.
What most impressed me about Dr. Reshef is his dedication to his work. He at least in his 60s if not 70s, and he still comes in to his clinic 7 days a week. He performed every ultrasound and procedure. And or worked! We now have a perfect, beautiful baby girl.
I still have two frozen embryos and intend to see him to transfer them, because I trust him and feel confident that he will do whatever needs done to help us be successful in conceiving our second child.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Don't be afraid to ask a lot of questions. He is a busy man and can't read your mind, so go in with questions.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef was always very kind and sensitive, taking his time despite how very busy his clinic is. He's also the first doctor to take me seriously when I described pain that I suspected is caused by endometriosis (it is- and he treated it).
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
I don't remember my treatment protocol well enough to describe it in detail. I remember starting with birth control and then lupron injections. Next came follicle stimulation and then the trigger shot and progesterone shots. I also had a tablet that I inserted vaginally, and he explained what it was for, but I can't remember. I had so much confidence in the process that I didn't worry too much about which medications did what.
I felt great through the whole IVF process. My ovaries did get quite large and I had to wear loose fitting pants for about two weeks after the egg retrieval, but I didn't deal with too much moodiness and only an occasional headache. We ended up with 18 mature follicles, 14 of which fertilized. Three of those survived to be 5 day blastocysts and we transferred the best looking one and froze the other two. The transfer worked and we have a perfectly healthy baby girl now.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Kimberly)

Dr. Reshef strongly encouraged us to only transfer one embryo. He said it was much safer and, given that I am a small woman, would be far less difficult on my body. His exact words were, "I have a daughter your age, and I wouldn't let her transfer multiple embryos. It's too risky."

I truly feel like I am in great hands with Reshef. However, with all my diagnoses some things have been overlooked and not tested. As each year passes we make tiny gains...just wish there was a preliminary workup upon starting the process (IUI/IVF).... I feel like all the past medical history has not been taken into consideration. As a patient I understand my role is to be an active member of the team, however, I feel like I have had to guide most appointments.
We absolutely love Beverly [a nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility], I feel like I can communicate concerns with her and she does a great job explaining things further and will look into additional concerns after the appointments. After losing my mom recently and going through this process without her, Beverly has always been compassionate and been an ear during the process. I have never felt like I was a burden calling her.

How was your experience with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
I truly feel like I am in great hands with Reshef. However, with all my diagnoses some things have been overlooked and not tested. As each year passes we make tiny gains...just wish there was a preliminary workup upon starting the process (IUI/IVF).
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Be an advocate for yourself. Don't be afraid to speak up and mention things you may feel like are being overlooked. He is very receptive and respects your opinions.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Currently, we are being seen and I feel like all the past medical history has not been taken into consideration. As a patient I understand my role is to be an active member of the team, however, I feel like I have had to guide most appointments.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
Specifically, with Reshef we have completed two IUI's with clomid and a trigger shot each time before insemination.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Beverly )
We absolutely love Beverly, I feel like I can communicate concerns with her and she does a great job explaining things further and will look into additional concerns after the appointments. After losing my mom recently and going through this process without her, Beverly has always been compassionate and been an ear during the process. I have never felt like I was a burden calling her.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Everyone is so compassionate-you never feel like a number there! They are organized and efficient! You rarely have to wait to check out after your appointment. I always feel comfortable asking questions regarding billing or future appointments.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Some medications, shots and ultrasounds were covered partially by insurance. However, IUI itself was around $650.

He [Dr. Eli Reshef] was blunt about how things may go which I liked I didn’t want to be lied to or given false hope. He didn’t always explain things thoroughly but I was able to ask his nurse more information or ask him questions and he was always helpful in explaining things I did not understand... With ivf we did a flare protocol. I wasnon high dosage of meds to help produce my eggs and more of them. Since I have the low ovarian reserve he thought this was the best way doing a short but strong protocol
The Bennett fertility is very exceptional. I never had any issues with them. The admin staff and nurses were always super nice to me and my husband they got to know us by name which truly meant a lot since we were going through so much with them.... His main nurse, eli reshefs nurse, is very nice some days she didn’t seem to motivated to be there but she was always helpful if I had any questions. The Bennett fertility nurses were extremely nice and compassionate. Always cheerful and ready to help in anyway.

How was your experience with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
He was very considerate of my situation and did everything to help. He located certain problems and fixed my tubal blockage hoping to raise my chances of getting pregnant. He was blunt about how things may go which I liked I didn’t want to be lied to or given false hope. He didn’t always explain things thoroughly but I was able to ask his nurse more information or ask him questions and he was always helpful in explaining things I did not understand. Even though the ivf didn’t work I would still use him to try again if we were able to.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
To go in his office with hope and an opened mind, don’t get angry if he doesn’t sugar coat things he may not be the most sensitive in telling you what’s wrong but he does show it in other ways of being caring of your feelings going through the process.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
He made me feel important through my whole process and that he truly wanted to help me.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
With ivf we did a flare protocol. I wasnon high dosage of meds to help produce my eggs and more of them. Since I have the low ovarian reserve he thought this was the best way doing a short but strong protocol. I didn’t respond to great to the meds I had to do the protocol longer which meant more doses of meds and money. I produced 7 follicles only retrieved 2 and one made it to a three day to be transferred. In the end the embryo didn’t attach and resulted in a negative pregnancy.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
His main nurse, eli reshefs nurse, is very nice some days she didn’t seem to motivated to be there but she was always helpful if I had any questions. The Bennett fertility nurses were extremely nice and compassionate. Always cheerful and ready to help in anyway.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
The Bennett fertility is very exceptional. I never had any issues with them. The admin staff and nurses were always super nice to me and my husband they got to know us by name which truly meant a lot since we were going through so much with them. There isn’t much to tell a new patient just that they make you feel welcome and you may be nervous but they are always there to help in anyway they can and answer any questions.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
During ivf my insurance didn’t cover anything so it was very expensive I had to get a loan to pay for it all. During the other process it was 50 dollars every visit.

Dr. Reshef took time to thoroughly explain my diagnosis and never rushed me out the door with unanswered questions...a well educated provider that has realistic protocols in place. My husband and I are both overweight and at our first consultation Dr. Reshef addressed it in the most humane manner possible. He said something along the lines of “we both know that weight is an issue and a factor here, but I believe we can get you pregnant now. If you want to lose weight, it could be even easier but I know that’s easier said than done.” We both really like him.
New patients [at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] might be interested in knowing that this office does not accept insurance unless you have a letter from said insurance promising that they cover infertility. Something else interesting is that you don’t fill out much paperwork at your first appointment- the nurse goes over everything medical with you in a room before meeting Dr. Reshef in his office.

Dr. Reshef took time to thoroughly explain my diagnosis and never rushed me out the door with unanswered questions.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
My husband and I are still receiving treatment, but I can review the protocols we’ve encountered so far. After the first consultation, he wanted to try femara. My husband has low morphology, so he sent him to a urologist who concluded that it shouldn’t be an issue because his count is astronomical. He started me on Provera to induce a cycle and did a transvaginal ultrasound on day 2 to check for cysts since I have PCOS. I then took 50mg days 5-9 of my cycle. I did ovulate but did not get pregnant. The next cycle was the same protocol (no provera needed because my cycles started on it’s own after ovulating due to femara- did the ultrasound again on day 2 or 3) except we upped my dose to 100mg days 5-9. We have taken a break due to a death in the family, but our next step is 150mg a day. If that doesn’t work, we will add metformin and do two more femara cycles. If those all fail, we will look into IUI.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Beverly )
Beverly is EXTREMELY reliable! Although she’s never answered when I call, she has ALWAYS called me back that same day, even if it means she’s working late to do so (she’s called me at 6:30 before). I appreciate her getting back to me more than I can explain. She’s great at explaining his protocols and reasonings for them. She can be a little dry/blunt, but I appreciate that, too. When I told her about the death in our family, she seems genuinely sorry for our loss and told us it was okay to take time off from treatment in order to take care of ourselves. We love Beverly.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Accessing the clinic is a bit of a pain due to the parking situation, but other than that everything is great. The front office staff are very sweet and I’ve never waited very long to be taken back. New patients might be interested in knowing that this office does not accept insurance unless you have a letter from said insurance promising that they cover infertility. Something else interesting is that you don’t fill out much paperwork at your first appointment- the nurse goes over everything medical with you in a room before meeting Dr. Reshef in his office.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Our first appointment was $250 I believe. Remember, no insurance involved here! Each ultrasound I have (every cycle) is $160. The urologist he referred my husband too also didn’t accept insurance and his visit with him was $450, with $700 in bloodwork.

Dr. Reshef is wonderful. He truly wants to discover why you aren't pregnant yet and what is going on. Sometimes, it is difficult to catch him to discuss additional questions or concerns. He arrives quickly to complete the visit and is off to his next endeavor... we had a consultation appointment with Dr. Reshef where we reconvened and determined our next course of action would be for 3 IUIs with 5mg of Femara. The 3rd, if we weren't pregnant, he plans to do a trigger shot mid cycle to help boost fertility. Then if still not pregnant, the plan is to move to IVF. We are currently waiting results of IUI #2.
Sometimes, it feels like you're being herded like cattle [at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] but more often than not, you are treated like a human...Beverly [nurse] is the first and last person you see in the clinic. You see her the most. She shows compassion sometimes but most often, she is blunt and you feel even more alone than you already are in this process... Dr. Reshef is very well versed and clear on the private pay pricing prior to initiating that treatment.

Sometimes, it feels like you're being herded like cattle but more often than not, you are treated like a human. Like someone who struggles with infertility and they truly want to help you be 1000% successful!
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
We first began seeing Dr. Reshef 1.5 years into our infertility. The first month was a workup of the Male factor. Once it was determined, the Male factor was a prime sample, we developed our plan of attack. This included vaginal ultrasounds each month during my cycle. Receiving a script for Femara 2.5mg for days 5-9. We tried this for 2 months, then when we weren't successful, Dr. Reshef ordered a post coital test, which was within normal limits. We still did not get pregnant within 7 months of this course. My husband and I choose to take a break from treatment due to my mental health, depression and anxiety began to run rampant. Approximately 10 months later, we had a consultation appointment with Dr. Reshef where we reconvened and determined our next course of action would be for 3 IUIs with 5mg of Femara. The 3rd, if we weren't pregnant, he plans to do a trigger shot mid cycle to help boost fertility. Then if still not pregnant, the plan is to move to IVF. We are currently waiting results of IUI #2.

Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Clinic is usually
running behind. I usually wait more than 30 minutes to be seen with no communication whatsoever. Communication of running behind would be helpful. Very friendly staff. Would recommend his clinic
Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
When we first began seeing Dr. Reshef and his team, my insurance didn't cover anything with a diagnosis of infertility. The vaginal ultrasound was roughly $120, private pay, Femara 2.5 my x 5 tabs was $13 at the pharmacy near his clinic he recommended. Now my insurance covers diagnostics related to infertility, which helps. But IUI is private pay, each IUI is $540. Dr. Reshef is very well versed and clear on the private pay pricing prior to initiating that treatment.

As someone who had been told by the other clinic I had “unexplained infertility”, I had lost all hope. Dr Kallenberger is still searching for a cause for our infertility but we are supposed to find out our results next week.

How was your experience with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Compared to my experience at the other clinic in my city (OU), Dr Kallenberger is a breath of fresh air. He performs extra tests I had never heard of and explains everything well. I feel as though I’m in the best possible care with him. He’s extremely knowledgeable. On my first visit he said “If it’s possible for you to get pregnant and have a child, we will make it happen”. As someone who had been told by the other clinic I had “unexplained infertility”, I had lost all hope. Dr Kallenberger is still searching for a cause for our infertility but we are supposed to find out our results next week. After two years of infertility, I had a miscarriage in June, the same month I turned 36. It has been a very difficult few months. We hope Dr. Kallenberger will be able to give us some answers.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
It’s a lot of blood work and you’ll feel like you permanently live in the stirrups, but all the testing is worth it.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?

Describe the protocols David Kallenberger used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
We have not done any treatment yet. However one of the additional tests he does is a post-coital exam which was not performed at our previous clinic. Additionally he found that I have low progesterone, which I had suspected but the other clinic hadn’t taken seriously. He actually listens to patients.

Describe the costs associated with your care under David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.

How was your experience with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
He was very busy all the time and the nurses did most of my care. Our first round went okay even though it failed. We were told that the new protocol change that a second round would most likely work in our favor. Our second round he rushed through everything and never fully explained why our cycle failed. He also wanted to order tests that I had already completed a few months before. I think he was too busy to even read my file even though we had spent $30,000 in his office for treatment.

We had suffered two miscarriages and we were uncertain as to why. He [Dr. Reshef] sat down with us in his office and gave us a great game plan as to move forward in getting pregnant again. He gives you all of his contact information and is very easy to reach even on the weekends!... his first plan of action was bloodwork as to check for a clotting factor in lupus. After that he had set up a procedure to check ovulation. However I was ovulating on my own and didn’t need any more procedures from there and fortunately got pregnant again on our own.
The clinic [INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] was very nice, clean, friendly staff. I did have one incident where they coded some bloodwork wrong and my insurance denied it and I had to call them multiple times to get it re-coded. However after finally getting in touch with the manager they corrected it for us and it was taken care of...She [nurse] was very compassionate and friendly!

Dr. Reshef was able to validate each of my concerns regarding my recurrent miscarriages. He was very sensitive in explaining the "plan" in order to increase my likelihood of carrying a healthy child. He welcomed me, as his patient, to look up research and be an active participant in my treatment plan. ...He did not make me feel as though I was any less important that any other patient. He spent time answering each and every one of my questions. When I called with more questions he was happy to answer them for me. He ran a myriad of tests in order to attempt to find a reason for my recurrent miscarriages.
When I initially set up my appointment, there was a 4 month wait. The scheduling staff informed me that I could call back to try for an earlier appointment. And then encouraged me to call every day in order to check for any cancellations...Beverly was excellent at returning phone calls, and communicating with me as a patient. She works so very diligently to ensure that the clinic runs as efficiently as possible...I felt as though they went above and beyond in doing this for me, and was very appreciative.

How was your experience with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef was extremely compassionate towards my situation. He did not make me feel as though I was any less important that any other patient. He spent time answering each and every one of my questions. When I called with more questions he was happy to answer them for me. He ran a myriad of tests in order to attempt to find a reason for my recurrent miscarriages. I was required to call about the blood test results, which I was not keen on. I would have rather had the office call when the blood work was returned, so I was not calling unnecessarily until the results were in. When the results were in, I was told I had a borderline high level of antinuclear antibodies. Dr. Reshef dismissed this stating that it was not enough to be causing problems, and I trust his judgement.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Ask questions, as he truly wants you to be actively involved in your treatment plans.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef was able to validate each of my concerns regarding my recurrent miscarriages. He was very sensitive in explaining the "plan" in order to increase my likelihood of carrying a healthy child. He welcomed me, as his patient, to look up research and be an active participant in my treatment plan.
He went over the specific statistics related to the odds of my conceiving and carrying a healthy child, and provided a pep talk to help me get out of the dumps of being in the 1% of the population to have 3 consecutive miscarriages with 0 existing children. I appreciated his honesty here.
Dr. Reshef was even sensitive to explain that all of my records will show my diagnosis labeling me as a "habitual aborter" so that I was not caught off-guard by the label, which I appreciated. As someone who desperately wants a child, I cringe at the sight of being labeled as anything to do with abort.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
The following blood tests were done: Factor V Leiden- Negative, Ovarian Function- Fine, Anti-Nuclear Antibodies 1:160, Chromosome Analysis- Fine.
I also had a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) in order to determine if my uterus was abnormally shaped. It was normally shaped, and each of my tubes were clear.
I was placed on Progesterone suppositories during my luteal phase to thicken my uterine lining. I did not have an abnormal uterine lining, as this was just as a precautionary measure.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Beverly)
Beverly was excellent at returning phone calls, and communicating with me as a patient. She works so very diligently to ensure that the clinic runs as efficiently as possible.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
When I initially set up my appointment, there was a 4 month wait. The scheduling staff informed me that I could call back to try for an earlier appointment. And then encouraged me to call every day in order to check for any cancellations. After scheduling my appointment for the 4 months out, I received a phone call within a couple hours from the office staff informing me of a cancellation within a month. I felt as though they went above and beyond in doing this for me, and was very appreciative.

Dr.Bundren has an immense amount of experience in the field of reproductive endocrinology. He made me feel at ease the moment I stepped through the door. His knowledge of my situation and effort to ask personal questions allowed him to make almost an immediate diagnosis which was ignored by my previous clinic. He is warm and comforting during stressful and emotional situations. I am beyond thankful that we found Dr. Bundren.
This clinic [ INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] is in an older building, so if you are looking for new and fancy, look elsewhere. I love that my money doesn't go for a fancy office, it goes towards treatments. They do their best to stay on schedule and manage their time well. The exam rooms are on the smaller side, so limit the amount of people you bring to your appointment...They [nurses] are AWESOME! These nurses feel like family and are family. I'm greeted with a warm smile, and feel welcome the moment I walk in. Mary Katherine is amazing and I can't speak highly enough of her. She is caring but stern when she needs to be. She stays on top of me to make sure I am honest about how I'm feeling. She's gentle when administering shots and I appreciate that more than she'll know.

You'll wish you'd have found him sooner!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with J. Clark Bundren at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. BUNDREN took the time to sit with me in his office before we ever made it to the examination room. He spoke with me and listened to me. He couldn't believe the clinic I was previously at missed such a huge diagnosis.
Describe the protocols J. Clark Bundren used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
I am still under treatment. I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis, PCOS and a septate uterus. He immediately informed me that not only would IUI and other treatments be ineffective, they could be deadly if I didn't have surgery to fix these issues.
I had laproscopic surgery 12/01/16 followed by 6 months of Depot Lupron. I am currently on shot 4 of 6 and we are also treating my low thyroid and vitamin deficiency. We will evaluate after the 6th shot to see if more surgery is necessary and if not, we will proceed with IVF. Possibly late fall early winter. If finances allow.

Dr. Reshef is one of the kindest doctors I know. He made me feel very comfortable through a process that no female ever wants to go through. He is a very caring man and sensitive to the process. Dr Reshef would always take the time to answer my questions in detail. I never felt rushed when he was in the room, he would always take his time with me. He got to know me and my husband on a personal level and that went a very long way with us.
Beverly is not always the most sensitive or nurturing person but when Dr. Reshef talked about possibly canceling my procedure, she was there for me during a really hard time. She made me aware that as a woman, I have rights. If I wanted to proceed that it was my choice. Her compassion during a really hard time was very touching because it happened at the moment that I needed it the most...The total was around $25K. The initial charges were $15K for the procedure, ultra sounds and blood work then $5K for medication. The medication didn't cover all that I needed. I had to order more medication at around a total of $3K. After everything was over, I received 3 more bills and wonder if I will receive more.

How was your experience with Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Dr. Reshef is a very nurturing doctor. He goes above and beyond to be there for his patients 24/7. When I was stressed out or worried about something, he had a way in which he made me feel at ease about the entire process and what I was going through. He can't control the results of the process but he will help you as much as he possibly can and is a very honest, ethical doctor.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Give him 110% because he is an expert and knows what he is doing. Ask questions, take your health in your own hands. Although he will give you a lot of information, it is up to you to do the research and ask questions when you don't understand.

Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
We did a Flare protocol where the medication process was very intense. Because of our situation, we had to get the ICSI IVF where the sperm was injected into the egg very strategically. We started out with very strong antibiotics and I was on birth control until they told me to stop. I was tested for Cystic Fibrosis and I was not a carrier. I gave myself Lupron twice a day 12 hours apart then added Gonal and Menopur. At one of my ultra sounds, I was told that I might have to cancel because I only had 2 eggs. The next appointment I had 3 eggs and at the very end I ended up having 5 eggs. We had 3 viable eggs at egg retrieval. I had 2 of the eggs that fertilized and we transferred both eggs on day 3. The embryologist and Dr. Reshef said they were perfect. I had my 2 week blood work and I was pregnant. The next blood work showed that my HCG was going down and I was having a miscarriage.

Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Bennett Institute does not have the best customer service. I was there to see Dr. Reshef so that is all that mattered to me but the clinic does need to work on their customer service. Women and men are going through a difficult period and they need the staff to go above and beyond especially with the amount of money that is being paid.

I asked the doctor about IVF with her in the room after getting told my husbands sperm count was below 5 million ( I also have PCOS) the doctor asked my age and when i said 22 the nurse interrupted and said "Asboutely not!" It was very upsetting. I called my husband crying after every appointment because of her.

The nurse at his office was very rude to me. She discredited my feelings for IVF treatment due to my young age (22 at the time) even me and my husbands diagnosis made us very qualified for IVF.
Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
Letrozole was used instead of Clomid so as to not thin the uterine lining more. Even with a very low sperm count and PCOS it was suggested to do 3-6 IUI before moving on to IVF.

Dr. Reshef is very compassionate. He made me feel like he understood how I felt and made every attempt to provide the care I wanted. He is very accessible and his nurse is on top of her game. I never felt pressured to resort to costly treatments that I was not yet ready for.... I have had multiple miscarriages (10+). He started me on Femara, as I was not ready to try IVF. I'm not sure why Femara was chosen, as I ovulate on my own and getting pregnant is not the issue for me. I did become pregnant but lost the baby at 10 weeks.
Dr. Reshef's nurse [INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] is on top of her game and is very organized. She handles all of his patients and is easily accessible. The only negative thing that ever happened was once, when I had a question about potential treatment, she wouldn't even ask him about it. She simply told me no. It was a little offputting that she wouldn't even ask him for me.... My insurance covered most of the procedures. I did not have many procedures though, and certainly none that were more expensive (ie egg retrieval, transfer, etc.).

Dr. Reshef sat down with us for our consultation and listened to everything we'd had done to that point. He repeated some tests and ordered some new ones, and mapped out an initial plan for treatment. He was warm and always used our names and would give a kind touch. Even when we were getting repeated vaginal ultrasounds, it was professional but still warm. He answered every question we had and presented the information in an understandable way.
Although there was a long wait for our initial consultation with Dr. Reshef (about 3 months), all of our appointments and follow-ups were scheduled right on time. We were very impressed with the efficiency of the clinic and how great of a job they did running on time.

Describe the protocols Eli Reshef used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
I had previously had a couple of femara cycles with my family physician at a lower dose. We used provera to start a new cycle, and then Dr. Reshef started us with 7.5mg Femara (3 pills) on cycle days 5-9. I had a hysterosalpinogram on cycle day 3. We had a couple of monitoring transvaginal ultrasounds to assess the number of follicles and my lining. We used an ovidrel trigger shot and then an IUI procedure. The outcome of that cycle was a negative pregnancy test. The next month, we went back for monitoring and were planning to do the same protocol, but I had an allergic reaction to an unknown allergen with a fever when I was midway through taking the femara. Since Dr. Reshef's office also treats high risk pregnant patients, they told me not to come in since I had a fever and the IUI was cancelled. We saved the ovidrel trigger shot. My husband and I had sex anyway, and I conceived.
Describe your experience with your nurse at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute. (Assigned nurse: Beverly)
Beverly was sometimes brusque in her communication, but she was thorough and efficient. We were always impressed with how quickly our appointments went and we attribute a lot of that to Beverly keeping things on track. It was clear that she and Dr. Reshef have a very strong working relationship and work well together.

Describe the costs associated with your care under Eli Reshef at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
I think our HSG was around $800. Most of our appointments were about $200 for the appointment and ultrasound. The femara was covered by insurance and very inexpensive; I think the ovidrel trigger shot was $60.

I felt like Dr. Kallwnberger showed compassion while doing the initial consultation. He was an effective listener, and he addressed all of my questions, and I had many. I would have appreciated it if he showed more urgency to address our concerns about getting pregnant.... It’s been quite some time since I was as seen by this doctor. He gave me a full exam, and ran dye tests to check for scar tissue in my tubes. Previously, my tubes had been tied, then I had surgery to resect them, so the dr was ensuring that they were open and properly working.
Many of the typical fertility procedures cannot happen at this clinic [INTEGRIS Bennett] because they’re located at a clinic that’s affiliated with a church-based hospital, such as using donor sperm. The clinic was pretty expensive as well, comparatively speaking. The office staff were very competent and professional, but also compassionate.... The staff & dr were very caring & professional. The clinic was beautiful & very clean.

How was your experience with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
I felt like Dr. Kallwnberger showed compassion while doing the initial consultation. He was an effective listener, and he addressed all of my questions, and I had many. I would have appreciated it if he showed more urgency to address our concerns about getting pregnant.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
Be very direct from the get-go about what the expectations are, and a potential time frame.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute?
The staff & dr were very caring & professional. The clinic was beautiful & very clean.
Describe the protocols David Kallenberger used in your cycles at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute and their degree of success.
It’s been quite some time since I was as seen by this doctor. He gave me a full exam, and ran dye tests to check for scar tissue in my tubes. Previously, my tubes had been tied, then I had surgery to resect them, so the dr was ensuring that they were open and properly working. He also performed a semen analysis. The test determined that the semen had poor morphology, which meant that the shape of the head of the sperm couldn’t penetrate the egg. We had to move so we weren’t able to take the next steps with this doctor.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
I don’t remember any specifically but the nurses were unbelievable here.
Describe your experience with INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
Many of the typical fertility procedures cannot happen at this clinic because they’re located at a clinic that’s affiliated with a church-based hospital, such as using donor sperm. The clinic was pretty expensive as well, comparatively speaking. The office staff were very competent and professional, but also compassionate.
Describe the costs associated with your care under David Kallenberger at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute.
I can’t remember. Our insurance paid for the sperm test and my exam. The price seemed high, and we could not afford it

He [Dr. Kallenberger] was amazing from the beginning to the end. After the negative pregnancy test, we met with him personally in his office!...He is so caring. You are a patient to him, and he cares so much. If you like the kind of doctor that sugar coats things, he’s not your guy. He’s open and honest but blunt with the delivery of the message. He’s not rude about it at all. I only wish he wouldn’t have been on vacation on the day of the transfer.
nurses [at INTEGRIS Bennett Fertility Institute] are amazing. My husband was out of town working during my IVF process. The nurses held my hand and walked me through so much of the process and never missed a beat or acted too busy to care about me...have a one on one about everything you will go through. My greatest concern was giving myself shots. They told me I could do it and they show you exactly how, they are a god send!!! I loved every single person in that clinic, they are amazing!

Dr. K [Kallenberger] always cared -- I have called him in the middle of the night and he answered. He was always kind, but very honest. His bedside manner is definitely unique but I always felt like I was in good hands. My cycles never went as planned and I was very emotional. Dr K is very matter of fact and sometimes seemed a little abrupt and dismissive of my concerns. Ultimately, though, I think he knew best.
Dr K's staff [at Integris Bennett Fertility Institute] is one of his biggest positives. BJ, Elaine, and then the ladies in his office were all wonderful...About 11,000 plus $500 for mess with cycle number one and about $2500 for Ned's with the second cycle (mostly covered by insurance)...Different nurses measured follicles which resulted in some variance. The nurses were very involved and answered questions and returned calls promptly

Eli [Dr. Reshef] has been very helpful so far we are only half way through our treatment. He remembered a patient from 13 years ago that referred us to the clinic and knew the exact age there kids are now. He seems to show compassion but always is a very intelligent man and def stays to the point without sugar coating things.... Until the IVF class it’s kinda hard to know what’s going to happen and the next steps to be taken. That has been the only frustrating part.

Dr. Reshef and his staff were very professional. They provided excellent service and were very compassionate. They were always willing to take the time to answer any questions and provide a thorough explanation of the procedures and recommendations.... Due to male infertility issues we first tried IUI.

The clinic does a good job of keeping the appointments on time so we never had to wait very long to see the doctor or nurse.... We had more viable embryos than needed. But Dr. Reshef would not implant them due to the fact that he has such a high success rate. He did not believe implanting more than was statistically needed would be responsible. I really appreciated him being so honest and responsible.
