IVFMD

One of my favorite things and partially why I chose this clinic is because they have many options to accommodate full time working people like me. We did our initial consultation via phone with Dr. Le, and they have later office hours a few days a week so we can always work out an after work appointment. I had difficultly communicating with the nurses for a little bit until I got an email address for them. If you have to call in, you hardly ever get someone, just a machine, but they will call you back. If email works better for you, don’t hesitate to ask for the nurses email. Dr. Le seems to listen well to the patients and be as aggressive or cautious as they want to be which is appreciated. I am very happy with this doctor and clinic. They are also very affordable.

Dr. Le is very personable - he takes the time to explain things and answer all of my questions. I feel like he does truly care about us and our treatment

All of the nurses I dealt with were great. I don’t have a ton of interaction with them - they did my first trigger shot and showed us how to do the second one on our own but other than that It was just being shown to our room at each appointment before the doctor came in.

I am very happy with Dr. Le. I am still trying for a baby but he is as aggressive as you want to be and he takes the time to listen, explain, and answer all of my questions. He seems to adjust things as needed to see what will work.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions, ask about possible treatments, etc. - he will not hesitate to take time to talk and explain with you.

I had a MC 2 years ago and haven’t gotten pregnant since them. I seem to ovulate on my own but still no pregnancy. First round with Dr. Le we tried clomid with trigger shot. My lining ended up a bit thin so next cycle we did Femara with trigger shot and progesterone. My progesterone tested fine the previous cycle but he said it could only help. I appreciate him trying something new, since it wasn’t anything that could negatively affect the process. My lining was much better on femara so that was good but still no pregnancy. We took December off but will be returning in January ready to go.

As well as I remember, the consultation was $100-150, same cost over the phone as it would have been in office. Each ultrasound is $150 for clomid/femara monitored cycles. Trigger shot is about $150 and cost of meds just depend. For me, clomid was much cheaper than femara but my body responded better to femara.

Dr. Le has three different clinics in Arlington, Irving, and Grapevine. At first it seemed like he had too many patients and it was just him overseeing all three clinics. He has hired two more RE's and I think everything runs a little smoother. Sometimes the wait times are a little long. I can see why though, he and his staff spend all the time you need when you are with them.

He is very kind and caring. He takes the time to answer or reanswer every question. He gives realistic expectations for treatment.

They all seem very nice and compassionate. They never say the wrong thing like my OB's nurse would sometimes. I never had the same one. They always answered all of my questions.

He is very knowledgeable and very compassionate. I think he might be a little overworked. He oversees three clinics. He makes sure you and your spouse are part of the treatment plan. He completely took my concerns seriously that I had not been checked for anything by my OB/GYN and he found endometriosis. He did not want to me to waste money on any treatments that he did not think would be successful. He personally explained all of the costs of everything. When I applied for a grant and needed him to do paper work. he had it ready the next day.

To open to his suggestions, he has been doing this a long time and probably knows what you need the most to be successful.

He completed one diagnostic IUI cycle with us when we first went to see him. They got in for an appointment within 30 days of calling and we started the IUI process immediately.This was after I had four failed clomid IUI's with my OB/GYN and my husband had a varicocelectomy. I took femara for 5 days. I had an ultrasound at the beginning along with an OB lab panel and my husband had an advanced semen analysis done. I had an HSG and another ultrasound closer to ovulation time. He specifically told me when to use the trigger shot and he himself did the IUI. After the IUI failed he recommended that I have a lap surgery to explore further since we had been trying for four years and everything else looked normal to good. He did not want me to waste more money on IUI if there was something that we were not seeing. He found stage II endometriosis and was ready to move on to IVF for our next treatment. We are just working saving up the money for IVF now.

my diagnostic IUI with meds was $1200. My HSG, semen analysis, and OB lab panel was covered by insurance with a $30 copay. My lap surgery was covered 80% by insurance and I had to pay $3200 out of pocket. My IVF cycle will not be covered by insurance. Dr. Le estimate that it would cost $9250 for the cycle and $3000-$5000 for medications.

He recommends single embryo transfers. He sites the CDC guidelines as his reasoning.

Not all of the clinic are the same I loved Dr. Reeds simply cause it was really girly and a very nice place . It was clean and neat and very organized. Even the other patients who come are friendly they don’t look at you weird for not being able to conceive. The receptionist was also very welcoming and friendly she made me feel like I was at the right place.

I felt like a human one because her office made me feel comfortable made me feel she knew what she was doing and that she was well educated she answered every question and concerns I had. When she told me the reasons why I couldn’t get pregnant at the time she made me feel warm she consoled me through the whole process.

The nursing staff made me feel welcome as well as Dr. Reed. They also seemed really educated about their jobs.

Dr.Reed was over all very helpful and amazing. From the first day I had a consultation with Dr.Reed she made me feel welcome she made me feel like it’s okay to not be able to conceive the natural way that I wasn’t the only one who struggles with trying to conceive. She walked me through every step of the procedure she made me feel her and her nurses are very educated and know what they are doing. She was really straight forward with me but at the same time was still sensitive to my feelings and could understand how I was feeling. When it was time to actually start the procedure she made me feel that everything was going to be okay she would guide me through what ever she was doing to my body that I couldn’t see. Her office was also very clean and neat I felt very comfortable being at her office knowing there aren’t any bugs or things just out in the open.

Whether good or bad news Dr.Reed will always make you feel comfortable and warm and clear up and confusion so no need to be nervous about anything .

I was on 50 mg of clomid to make my eggs bigger, and I was also on a medication for the hsg process or die test is another word used for hsg it that medication just was to help proven me from catching anything from the die test .

The clinic is pretty good about keeping appointment times. I don't have to wait very long to go back, 10 minutes at the most. They play good music in the waiting room and have fish tank. The exam rooms are large and clean and they turn on smaller lighting to avoid the harsh bright florescent. The bathroom is actually decorated as opposed to a sterile hospital type bathroom. The education rooms are a little bare. Wish they would decorate those like the bathrooms. Labcorp is on the first floor of the building where the clinic is located so it makes it very convenient to get bloodwork that the clinic can't do.

In the beginning consulting stages he was very educational in his approach on communicating with my husband and I the process of IVF. He drew many illustrations and diagrams to help us understand. I have always felts that he cares whether or not we can have a baby.

Katherine is very pleasant. She calls and checks in frequently. She thoroughly explains my medications. She doesn't offer up a lot of extra information so my husband always asks the questions i forget about.

Dr. Le was really great on explaining the entire IVF cycle in the beginning. Now that we're actively in the cycle, I don't feel as comfortable with my knowledge. The visits now with him are very short but then again he's only doing sonograms and always answers our questions while he's in the room. I'm just left with a feeling that i don't know as much as i should.

Ask questions. Ask so many that you think you're annoying him. He's very patient to answer and will explain thoroughly.

We are doing an antagonist protocol. I stared with 10 units of Lupron for 12 days. Starting day 12 I will add 300 units of Gonal, Menopur and 5 units of Lupron. Not sure of the menopur dose but its one little bottle of the liquid mixed together with one bottle of the powder. That's as far as i've gotten so i'm not sure of the rest of the process. I do know i'll have an HCG trigger shot. And progesterone suppositories and pills and minivelle patches.

IVF cycle was $8000. Medications were $4700. TESE procedure (not Dr. Le) $2000. Day of costs (anesthesia, embryo freezing) $1700

when we began they could only do transfers in the Irving clinic so our embryos were there but I believe they can do that in their new facility in Arlington now as well. the clinic is clean, modern, and equipt with everything needed. I loved having my early sonograms there.

although Dr. Le has many patients, he always knew my husband and I, our details, and from the very beginning he told us he predicted 3 children for us. I was very selfish and said I would be beyond grateful for 1, but since he was asking, I wanted 4. Dr. Le was right, we have 3 beautiful healthy children. He always took the time to answer all of my questions and always drew charts and diagrams which helped me because I am a very visual learner. Dr. Le is an amazing doctor and holds a very special place in my heart.

kind, knowledgeable, patient, and became a friend.

Dr Le is very open, patient, kind, caring and compassionate. I feel that he is dedicated to helping families achieve their dreams of children. He takes such care in everything he does. I will never forget him during our 2 frozen embryos transfers, he took every step to protect our embryos and make sure his placement was perfect. He did practice transfers with me each time so he knew exactly how to navigate my body and where to place our embryos before the actual transfer. He does not do anything carelessly, wrecklessly or without purpose. I never felt rushed with Dr. Le. and I wholeheartedly trust his opinion, knowledge, skill, and intent. He is a believer of God and gives Him credit above himself. Dr Le also has a great sense of humor, calming bedside nature and all around good personality. His protocols are perfected, he knows what he is doing. He strives to achieve a healthy single pregnancy and out of 3 transfers, we have 3 healthy, perfect, beautiful babies. Without Dr. Le I do not believe this would have been medically possible for my husband and I. God has blessed Dr. Le, he is a fertility genius.

trust him, he knows what he is doing.

our only option was IVF with ICSI. I did a drug protocol in 2010 that I can't remember everything to list it here, it was so much medication, oral, vaginal, injections, patches, all of it (Lupron, progesterone, etc.). when it was finally time for my egg retrieval, I had 23 eggs. They also had to retrieve sperm from my husband and they got 3 vials. They were able to inciminate 14 eggs, after 5 days we had 6 embryos. We transferred 2 and froze 4, in sets of 2's. 2 years after our first baby (healthy girl) I went back to Dr. Le, got on a drug protocol that began with birth control to gain control of my cycle, then went to oral, vaginal & patch hormones (progesterone, Vivel and a few others). Dr. Le completed our transfer of 2 frozen/thawed embryos and I got pregnant with 1 baby. 2 years after I had my second baby (healthy boy) I went back to Dr. Le and repeated that entire protocol using our last 2 frozen embryos and had our last baby a healthy boy. if we had more embryos I would continue the process!

we spent around $20k on IVF with ICSI, including 3 embryo transfers resulting in my 3 children.

Dr Le told my husband and me that he would not transfer more than 2 embryos because it's not responsible and lowers your chances for a healthy pregnancy due to higher chance of multiples resulting in higher risk pregnancies. He let it completely be our choice to do 1 or 2 embryos.

The clinic location is good. The office is modern and comfortable. I’ve never had to wait too long to be seen. They have a very good lab and many embryologists. An embryology comes to talk to you before the transfer. The treatment costs for the uninsured patients are more affordable compared to many other clinics.

The Dr has a great bedside manner and was very attentive to my needs.

Julie is excellent. She is smart, organized, always follows up on time and shows compassion.

Dr Reed and her staff have always been very attentive and followed up with me during my treatment. They checked how I was doing and responded to my calls and emails in timely manner. Dr Reed is a compassionate and wants you to succceed. She is also considerate of the treatments and tests you want to try and willing to do them for your peace of mind. Dr Reed does the ultrasounds, retrieval’s and transfers herself and I like this approach.

I would advise to have a list of questions and have a thorough discussion during your initial consultation. This Dr has an open mind.

We did an estrogen priming protocol to prepare my ovaries for a stimulation and retrieval cycle.

We paid about $12,500 for a complete IVF cycle with ICSI and PGS testing. Part of those fees were charged by the embryo testing lab.

The Dr prefers to do eSET for PGS tested embryos.

Their strengths are that they are very compassionate for their patients. They are very organized and make you feel confidante that they their for you. They are there for any questions that you may have. I really have not seen any weaknesses yet as I have not been with the clinic yet.

I gelt like a human because the doctor as well as nurses took time to explain everything and made me fill comfortable.

Dr Le. Was very sweet and kind. He took time to sit and talk to us about our options. He answered any questions we had. He explained to us what to expect in each step of the process. He always made sure we understood what to expect.

I would say to have any questions that you may have for him. Be prepared to spend a little extra time as he takes time to explain everything. I would say dont be shy and if you are unsure of anthing ask him.

We have just started and are using donor eggs and a surrogate so a protocol call for us specifically has not been made. He explained how the process will go.

Costs were pre-screening, coordination of egg donor/surrogate, retrieval, and transfer

IVFMD has competitive pricing.

Sy Q. Le relates fertility to parenthood and loving a baby. It is not just a clinical procedure to him. It is the path to creating a new life to love.

The nursing staff was always cheerful, compassionate, and encouraging.

Sy Q. Le was straightforward about the odds of getting pregnant my second time at age 44. He brought up the option of using donor eggs. He was encouraging when he said that any new baby would feel like my own baby even if it wasn't my biological child.

Be open to receiving honest feedback about your chances of conceiving even if it is disappointing to you. He tries to be encouraging in what can be a very discouraging process. You have to try to stay positive in order to be receptive to his suggestions about other treatments.

For my first child, I became pregnant on my 3rd round of IUI. For my second child, I tried many rounds of IUI, I tried mini-stim IVF that produced 6 embryos. finally I did a frozen embryo transfer with a donated embryo that was successful. I don't remember all the drugs I used. I know I used clomid, estrogen, baby aspirin, hcg trigger injection.

My frozen embryo transfer was $1500 as I recall.

The doctor discussed the recommended number of embryos to transfer with me. It was an appropriate number given my age and the odds of implanting.

Everything is wonderful.

Dr Le is very kind, patient and explains things very well. If you dont understand he explains it differently. He is an excellent doctor. He is confident in what he does which also makes him very easy to trust. I would recommend Dr. Le to anyone.

All nurses and staff are wonderful. Very compassionate and patient.

Dr. Le is extremely compassionate. We had planned to transfer 2 embryos, but the day of the transfer (which happened to be a Sunday because thats just how the days fell) he said... Are you prepared for twins? I have a good feeling about this, you are going to be pregnant. Would you like to just transfer 1? YES. We transferred 1 and have 1 amazing son. Dr. Le makes you feel extremely important, and like he is giving you the treatment / advice he would give his own loved ones.

Go to him if you need any kind of fertility treatment. He is the only dr i will ever go to.

I dont remember

My insurance didnt pay anything, it was all out of pocket. I think the cycle was $8,000 + medication which was about $2,000

I thought this clinic was a lot more proactive than the others id been to. Dr Le was very informative and the staff was very kind and easy to work with. Dr Le's prices are also a lot lower than other places.

He did get us in and out but I really liked his straight forward approach.

I was very impressed by the nursing staff. They were very attentive and responsive.

Compared to the other 2 doctors i saw, I have been VERY impressed with Dr. Le. He was very informative but honest. He explained to my husband why his issue was keeping us from getting pregnant in a way he could understand...which no other doctor did.

Go in with an open mind

We are going to do our first IUI friday. I did femara days 3-7 adn will trigger that day.

Dr Le's prices are about half of what anyone else charges
