IVFMD South Florida Institute for Reproductive Medicine

Dr. Thompson is very sweet. She is always smiling. I trust her completely in this process. She is honest, but soft with her delivery. She is very detailed in her explanations. We actually never "shopped around" for different doctors. She was recommended by the urologist and once we met her we were very pleased with the recommendation and never looked back. Her appointments do run behind, but I am okay with it because I know when it is my turn she won't be rushing through anything. She gives every patient the attention they need.

Clear your day for the first visit with her (or every one if possible). She runs behind, but more than anything I say this because it is a lot of information to process. She gives you options, brings up things you my not have thought about. She is very thorough. She's a wonderful doctor; you'll see!

I have not started medicine, but she told me she chose my plan based on the blood work done, my weight and my PCOS. She explained that she also has a back up plan for if the medication doesn't show her enough progress with my eggs as the stims goes on.

Doctors visits are covered by my insurance; I just pay my copay. Some blood work can be done there for convenience purposes, but its $75. I buy vitamins and supplements there and it costs less than outside of the office. The IVF with ICSI is going to be about 16k, give or take a few hundred. Every transfer after the first is $5,699.

I am 33. She said she will only transfer one embryo at a time.

Dr. Roseff was the first doctor to figure out why I was having recurrent miscarriages. I really appreciated how direct and to the point he was. He didn’t give me unrealistic expectations and he took my recommendations under advisement. The only small thing I would say is that I would have liked him to be a little more present during the IUI process. Mostly I only dealt with the RN Kristi (who is fabulous!!!) and I felt like he was a little absent. Although, it didn’t effect the outcome at all. I still felt supported by the other office staff and I was able to communicate with him through them. All in all I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is searching for answers to their infertility. He will figure it out.

Be prepared to do a lot of testing. He is very in depth to give you the best chance for success.

I did IUI with a donor sperm. He prescribed letrozole 5mg for I believe 5 days and then a trigger shot. The office recommends two back to back IUI’s to increase the odds.

The testing for me and my fiancée was almost 5k (my insurance covered barely any) and the IUI was $310 per time.

I think his approach to the IUI procedure was spot on. I got pregnant on the second IUI, although it ended in a chemical.

My husband and I could not be happier with Dr. Taylor and her practice. She is incredibly knowledgable and has a wonderful bedside manner. She explains everything thoroughly and makes sure that you understand and feel good about the process. Although we only see her a few times during the treatments, I feel like she is following along and keeping track of where we are and how we are doing. She truly cares for her patients and I think that all of her patients feel that!

Get excited!! You have joined a wonderful practice! She will take wonderful care of you :)

Currently undergoing my first round of IUI. The treatment strategy was created around our current infertility problems. Dr. Taylor has pin pointed, as best as she is able, the possible fertility issues and came up with a plan for each one. My husband and I are on different medications and/or supplements to combat certain problems. We have also seen an additional specialist and Dr. Taylor reached out to that specialist and strategized with them before coming to us with a plan of action. She has explained evrything thoroughly and made us feel very positive about our current course of treatment!

For the IUI treatment we are undergoing we believe the pricing to be fair and they accept many insurance policies. All pricing is given to you upfront and someone from their office will call you to follow up and see if you had any questions regarding the costs presented.

No experience with this.

Dr. Bustillo was amazing from the second we sat down in her office. She thoroughly explained where we were at, our next options, and what may be the potential outcomes. She is very direct and blunt which I love. Some may need to look beyond this and understand she is very experienced and has been doing this for years.

She is very direct and blunt . Some may need to look beyond this and understand she is very experienced and has been doing this for years.

Treatment is currently ongoing. However, when we first went under Dr. Bustillo's care in 2018 she advised that IUI would be the best next treatment. My husband and I were not ready for this at that point in time. Fast forward a year later, we were back with Dr. Bustillo, ready for her care. We used: Femara [2.5mg], Ovidrel [250mcg/0.5ml] and followed by IUI. In between the medications I would go in to get ultrasounds performed to see the growth of my follicles and lining. As these were unsuccessful for us, Dr. Bustillo has advised we change our course of treatments to IVF. Given i) high costs and ii) the current economic conditions with COVID, all treatment has been placed on paused.

Each IUI treatment was $1,400 [including ultrasounds, medicines & treatment]. The IVF quote recently obtained for Fresh IVF direct to Frozen embryo transfer was $16,618 [excluding medication and preliminary tests] . Medication may range between $4,000-6,000, per quote obtained. So all in, each IVF cycle would average approx. $22,600 [excluding preliminary test].

Dr. Thompson is invested in my road to motherhood. She prays with you and dances for good luck. She believes that it only takes one no mater what the odds are. In my case diminished ovarian reserve. But at the same time, in a caring manner she gives you odds and your chances and is very clear.

Be sincere up front. What you have already done, tried, what hasn’t worked. And what you are not willing to do. Be transparent from the beginning.

Dr. Thompson discovered that my vitamin d was extremely low. She placed me in a plan of 10,000 mm a day to raise it. She also discovered a polyp right where an embryo would need to attach. She performed the procedure to have it removed.

It depends on the cycle and the package you choose. Ivf package approx - 18,000 Iui approx - a few thousand

My first ivf try was turned iui because I only had 2 mature follicles.

It took 2 months to get in with Dr Roseff. I was worried this meant his office was operating above capacity, but that is not the case at all. He sets aside a whole 1-2 hours for each consultation. I have friends who have seen him, so I knew what to expect. He is not overly warm, but is more methodical about his approach to medicine. I feel like any human who has decided to go into the field of reproductive endocrinology must be this way, so it didnt bother me. He explained my diagnosis is detail and answered all of my questions. I have bilateral hydrosalpinx..which means I need to have both tubes removed before IVF. I was worried about the timing of this (before or after retrieval) and Dr Roseff thoroughly explained both options to me and gave me the autonomy to choose for myself, which meant a lot - espcially because IVF robs us of so much choice. My husband and I also found out that we are carriers of the same recessive gene and will be facing the hurdle of PGD testing. Dr Roseff was very compassionate about this as well. Due to cost, we have decided to pursue IVF in 6-9 months instead of right away because of cost. Dr Roseff was totally supportive of this which felt good. I was happy to not be rushed into such a big step. We are in contact with the office and they are quick to respond to any questions we have.

Do not take it personally when he does not visibly respond to emotion - its just not who he is! Let him finish his presentation before you interrupt for questions, he usually gets to everything.

I havent gone through IVF yet, but I will be having a bilateral salpingectomy prior to IVF with PGT-A and PGT-M due to tubal blockage (bilateral hydrosalpinx) and a shared recessive gene with a 25% chance of being passed down to our children. I also have mild PCOS and was told to take ovasitol 2x per day and continue to exercise and maintain a healthy weight. My thyroid is also a bit out of whack and will be taking synthroid prior to IVF.

I havent paid yet, but IVF, PGTA, PGTM, transfer will cost us about 34k

Dr Roseff is a huge eSET advocate. He believes the risks arent worth the multiple transfer, and his success rates are good without them.

Dr. Roseff had us both do more thorough testing than any other provider we went to, and then developed an individualized treatment plan for us based on our specific fertility issues. This saved us considerable emotional and financial stress. He is deeply knowledgeable of his field, can explain it at a high or low level, is always keeping up-to-date with the latest treatment innovations (as he says "The way we do things today is different than how we did them 6 months ago; this field is ALWAYS evolving!", and totally up-front and honest when providing you with the information you need to help him make the best possible treatment decision for you. He was always genuinely looking out for our best interests (medically, emotionally, and financially), and was very much rooting for us throughout our time with him. He always made himself available for questions and ensured they were satisfactorily answered, and he never rushed us through a visit. After our FET he called us (after-hours!) to check in and see how we were doing!

Listen to him carefully, and follow his instructions to the letter! Just trust him!

Stim cycle was done using Follistim, Ganirelix, Menopur, Growth Hormone, and HCG for the trigger shot. This produced 14 eggs, 9 of which fertilized, and 5 of which were normal after PGT-A. FET cycle was done with Lupron, followed by Vivelle, Estrace, Progesterone Capsules, and Progesterone injections. One FET cycle with a single embryo resulted in a pregnancy (currently 12 weeks).

$11k for stim cycle, $8k for transfer, not including meds or testing costs.

Dr. Roseff only does single embryo transfers due to the high success rate they have with their FET protocol.

I had previously been through diagnostic testing and one round of IUI at another South Florida clinic that I felt did not tailor anything to my individual needs. I felt a bit like a number, not a patient, being passed from appointment to appointment. Dr. Roseff and his team are the exact opposite. From the very first in depth appointment I felt like Dr.Roseff really wanted to get all the information he could on me and my husband. Medical history, diet, lifestyle...no stone goes unturned. That along with lots of important diagnostic testing he was able to set up a plan for us. As a patient it is so important to trust what he says and trust the process. Dr.Roseff does not rush this process. He respects the time, money and emotion that patients put into this process and he wants it done right. I am so glad we put our trust into him and his team.

Trust Dr.Roseff and the process. Follow his instructions. Be patient.

$25,000

The first time I met Dr. Eisermann, I was in the stirrups covered with a paper blanket awaiting a biopsy of my uterine lining. Dr. Eisermann strolled in and started asking questions about who had referred me to his practice, since I was doing outside monitoring with IVFMD. When he heard who my primary IVF physician was, at a competing practice, he immediately said, "When you have nothing good to say, better not to say anything at all." I felt shamed as I respect my previous doctor, and I felt myself becoming defensive. While half un-clothed. He also warned me that the course of action I was taking was not what he would have done for me - in fact, he made me feel like I was making the wrong decision. He was negative about whether I should do a transfer. On a separate occasion, I asked Dr. Eisermann if he would be interested in lobbying the government for expanded fertility benefits. He gave me an emphatic no, because opening IVF to more coverage and more physicians would dilute the quality of care he would be able to give because he would have more competition. In my book, more competition drives quality, because then you have to start comparing clinics based on their results.

I would strongly recommend against it. I would go in with eyes wide open and attempt to see what the incentives are at play for him. He is not in this business to help you grow your family. He's in this business to grow his bank account, and it shows.

I did not do a cycle with this physician. I did outside monitoring here.

This clinic bills $600 for a simple blood draw and ultrasound. I didn't do a cycle here but can't imagine a the full price. Suffice to say that the copay for a fibroid removal surgery was more than my egg retrieval in NYC.

He is definitely the "baby maker" He is definitely a scientist. He did a lot of testing and research to figure out the underlying causes of my miscarriages. The previous clinic I used before didn't do any testing or research, they automatically told me I needed ivf. I didn't feel comfortable there and I am happy I switched to Dr. Roseff. He helped us conceive naturally and treated my underlying causes to aid in preventing another miscarriage.

He is straightforward. His goal is for us to succeed.

We conceived in a natural cycle. He provided us with progesterone, anticoagulant medications, supplements and a nutrition plan. I was extremely obese upon my first visit and we immediately addressed and resolved that. His overall plan set us up to succeed.

My insurance covered some items, but the out of pocket cost at the clinic was reasonable

Doctor Soto is honestly the most amazing doctor I have ever had. After being in care of another physician about a year and a half ago at 27 years old, perfectly healthy with unexplained infertility I finally felt like I am In great hands. With my previous doctor my transfers kept on failing and I had to keep pushing new ideas on her with her refusing to take any innovative steps. With doctor Soto he immediately knew that my case shouldn’t have been this hard and, ran some more tests and made a proper transfer cycle for me. The first try with doctor Soto was a success after my four PGS normal embryos that were wasted in failed transfers at the previous colic and I am currently 14 weeks pregnant. His abilities are absolutely incredible and after my previous care I realized that I should never settle. Doctor Soto showed care, compassion, I never ever felt like I am bothering him with anything and was a true angel. I am so eternally grateful and my biggest regret is that I didn’t find him sooner. Thank you for my miracle baby!

Be open about everything, don’t be afraid to ask questions. He will not judge or make you feel bad about wanting things done a certain way.

I’ve had three failed transfers at my previous clinic. One was a medicated transfer which failed and I knew it was wrong for my body to my reaction since second attempt failed due to breakthrough bleeding. I then had to advocate for natural transfer which resulted in a miscarriage. Afterwards I did I again with two PGS normal embryos and it was negative. Then finally I switched and went to doctor Soto and he agreed natural cycle is the way to go, I was put on letrozole and we monitored ovulation and after my trigger shot we transferred after 7 days. My previous clinic did it after 6 which clearly was wrong. I also was tested for estrogen levels after the transfer which were e tre my low and I never was tested for that at the previous clinic as I was told it’s not necessary since it’s a natural transfer. I started with estrogen patches and pills and continued my progesterone suppositories.

I don’t remember the costs

Doctor Soto preferred single transfer

Dr. Roseff is very knowledgable and experience. He follows a holistic approach and like to incorporate Easter and Western techniques. Dr. Roseff is very direct and straight to the point, which can come across as inconsiderate. He believes in the process but also understands that every client has different challenges and he treats his clients according to their individual needs. He is very successful and there are many babies out there to prove it.

You should be open minded and prepare to do the work. As well as have tough skin and don’t take his words or advise as personal attacks and more as his plan for you to succeed.

He referred us to Fertility nutritionist with the purpose to address chronic inflammation and autoimmune responses after many failed transfers. We have not gotten to the point to start treatment since we’ve been working on decreasing inflammation and priming to prepare my body for the next steps.

Not discussed cost just yet

Dr. Roseff has a very complete and thorough process. He will test a wide range of things to find understand the challenges a couple of facing so he can properly treat. There is no rushing and no stone unturned.

Trust him. It may take a little time to get all of the tests done early and it may seem a little expensive. But he wants to do it the right way.

Dr. Roseff identified areas of improvement in each of us and gave us a clear understanding of what he wanted to see before starting fertility treatment. After a year of seeing a nutritionist, we were given the go-ahead to start with IUI. We conceived on our first attempt.

The cost of upfront testing can add up because of the amount of testing done. If you want it done right, it’s worth the investment.

he is caring, says it as it is, is not scared of exploring alternative ways, straightforward with his explanations. He is compassionate. he also has hope to try for natural ways and looking for options that may work in the long run

come prepared to tell him what has happened in the past

he explored growth hormones to try and help the quality of the eggs and growth of them, rather than quantity like my last doctor.

very expensive!

he believes in only one embryo transfer

Dr. Taylor had to increase my medication on the third day of injections and I think it was the right decision based on my estrogen levels. We agreed that I probably should have waited an extra day to trigger.

Have all your questions prepared before the appointment because most appointments are with nurses.

Menopur 300, Gonal F and Cetrotide because I appeared to be a “slow responder.”

My overall treatment cost over $20,000 with all the medications and testing.

N/A

Very friendly and knowledgeable. She was patient explaining the process and our options. My husband and I went to her as a second opinion and immediately connected with her and chose to move forward with her.

Be honest and open. Express your needs and expectations.

Vaginal ultrasound to monitor follicle growth. At home ovulation tests to track ovulation. Clomid tablets, 4 daily for 5 days during each cycle, Ovidrel shot 36 hours prior to IUI, IUI procedure, progesterone vaginal capsules for 2 weeks, progesterone test and beta test.

Consults, lab work, ultrasounds, fertility procedures.

N/A

. Dr. Gelman took us through the journey, making sure all checks were done so that we would have the best success chance from the beginning, he was always honest, upfront, compassionate, and I love he always sees the good on all things. My husband and I are that type of couple that asks and even question everything, and Dr Gelman was always patient and willing to explain. Our IVF journey threw us some curveballs, but Dr Gelman always found a way to move to the next step while allowing us to work as a team. I love that Dr Gelman never pushes you to do things and he will work out alternate plans with you if needed, it really is up to you and he is just there to guide and support you with his vast experience and magical hands.

Work with him as a team member, ask questions, create a good communication channel, and do the work so you don't rely on "hope".

We did a regular egg retrieval process with low-level medications, added Femara to avoid bringing my estrogen dominance up, then did laparoscopy to remove tubes and clean out endometriosis, then did an ERA test to make sure I did the transfer on the best day possible, and then did a natural transfer cycle to avoid heavy medicines like LUPRON.

About $25K more or less

This clinic in general only does single embryo transfers now to minimize any risks.

After 3 consecutive miscarriages, my husband and I knew we needed to seek professional help again in order to have a baby. My husband and I saw a different IVF clinic roughly 4 years ago when we were dealing with the same issues. We were successful in the end but had to go through 3 IUIs and 3 IVF transfers before we ended up pregnant. We are very grateful for the IVF center for our son but we also felt we were handled with what seemed like a “fail then react” case. There were many tests that were not performed until after we had already wasted 4 perfectly good embryos. After discussing with my husband we felt our old center was not only very far away, but we were now older (age is a big factor regarding infertility) and knew we may not be able to create the same amount of embryos we previously did. We needed someone who could give us a winning shot the first time. We were referred to Dr. Scott Roseff by a friend who previously had IVF success the first transfer. She raved about Dr. Roseff and we are beyond happy that we took the recommendation. From our first appointment with Dr. Roseff, we felt confident that we were in the best hands possible. He is the most thorough and knowledgeable doctor we have met and leaves no stone unturned. We were facing a number of issues including, but not limited to, factor 5 liden deficiency, elevated natural killer cells, hypothyroidism, diminished ovarian reserve and a male factor morphology issue. All of these factors were working against us but we could tell immediately that Dr. Roseff was experienced in dealing with all of these issues. Dr Roseff gave a lot of hope by explaining confidently to us "Why go through multiple IVF cycles when all it takes is one to conceive." My husband and I discussed the risk/reward of moving forward and knew that he would give us the best chances at conceiving. Now if you’re a numbers person, let me just explain that my FSH was a 17.5 and my AMH was a 1.4... these numbers were terrifying to me and of course I was skeptical that we would be able to ultimately have success. After careful consideration we decided to give Dr Roseff a shot while following all of his suggestions to a "T". My IVF protocol was specific to target all of these areas of concern including extra medication to assist in helping my egg quality. Dr. Roseff is also a doctor that believes in a holistic approach and so I was receiving acupuncture, taking supplements and eating a clean diet in order to give me the best chance possible. My egg retrieval went better than expected thanks all to Dr. Roseff’s protocol. After the PGS testing we sat in Roseff’s office to confirm that we had ended up with one normal embryo. With everything against us, we moved forward with our one and only embryo transfer and I am still in shock to say that it was a success! This was an absolute miracle and the result of us following every suggestion by Dr. Roseff. We are currently 15 weeks pregnant and everything is moving along perfectly! We have recently been discharged from Dr. Roseff’s office to continue our journey with our OBGYN. It was bittersweet to say the least! Dr. Roseff takes a very thorough approach right from the beginning. He sits with you for extended periods of time and makes sure to answer all your questions and concerns while performing all the preliminary tests needed before even starting the IVF process. Dr. Roseff's motto is “do it once, do it right and just make it work!” So if you are feeling doubtful or not sure what clinic or doctor to choose, I can assure you that my experience is not exclusive to Dr. Roseff but it is highly recommended that you look no further. I am forever grateful to Dr. Roseff for his expertise and passion for helping people create families. If you are struggling to get pregnant or stay pregnant, seeing Dr. Roseff will change your life.

Office visits, ultrasounds, Intralipid infusions, egg retrieval, pgs testing, embryo transfer. Estimated cost $25,000.00 including all medications

Dr Gelman has always been very objective, proffessional and understanding of my concerns. He has been available to answer questions for me when they came up, I trust him. In this stressful process, he inpires confidence.

He inspires confidence in the process.

The treatment was based on the administration of anticonceptive pills, luprolide injections and hormones estradiol and progesterone in the form of pills, patches and injection. The rationale is to prepare your body for a pregnancy.

We paid over $9k for one cycle to the clinic, excluding medications.

Yes. The doctor's criteria is based in scientific evidence that multiple embryo transfer could be dangerous for the mother and can lead to a multiple pregnancy outcome that could be harmful for the babies too.

Strengths include a great bedside manner and using humor. He truly takes the time to go over everything with you and answer your questions. He does not make you feel as though he’s in a rush. He makes you feel like an actual human. Weakness is that it is difficult at times to get a hold of him on the phone. I had to call the office several times and email several people to get a call back from the doctor.

Good luck!!! You’re in good hands

I was seeing Dr. Gelman for about 2 years. Very soon into my treatment I knew he was one of the best infertility doctors out there. He is honest, to the point, but at the same time sincere and kind. He won’t let you waste too much time on treatments that don’t work. He will make recommendations and point you in the direction to succeed. He never gave up on me. He gave me hope and every appointment was a step closer to fulfilling my dream. I am currently 20 weeks pregnant with twin girls. I will forever be thankful and grateful to Dr. Gelman for his expertise and the time he dedicated treating me. He is a reminder that hope still exists even when things seem impossible.

Trust him, you're in the best hands.

He listens. That’s his biggest strength. However, after many failed cycles, I am disappointed that we kept doing the same things again and again. There was not much of a drastic change in treatments.

It was on the expensive side and we have spent more than $80,000 through this process with nothing to show for it :(

Dr roseff started from scratch and broke down the reasons as to why none of my other previous FETs were working with another clinic. My first FET WORKED with him. He did everything I hoped all REs would do. Nurse Kristi was fantastic.

Don’t think twice. See dr roseff for treatment

Tested for sperm fragment, stayed on top of thyroid, tested and treated NKC,

He explained test results, and courses of action to correct issues. He would only proceed to the next phase if the prior one was successfully completed. He was meticulous and well informed about the latest treatments.

He has your best interests at heart. He is very efficient, and it might come across as cold. Stick with it, and you will be happy you did.

He refused to do multiple embryo transfers, based on his experiences, and analysis of the condition of the patient.

Dr. Roseff energy level from the moment my wife and I met with him just sets the tone of a positive outcome, he explained to us in detail all the pros and cons, was very upfront on all his suggestions, always asked us for our feedback and executed a plan of action to the best of his ability.

communicate all experiences, feeling, thoughts, as Dr. Roseff is very understanding.

We followed all his directions, very satisfied.

don't recall exact dollar amount

No comment, doctor is very knowledgeable .
