Attention to Detail

Attention to detail is on a 1 - 10 scale, and is scored based on the rate, and severity, of errors committed by the clinic according to the patients.

For example, a severe error might be failing to inform a patient of critical information, while a small error might be failing to call a patient with results.

CDC Success Rates

This is the most recent data from the CDC. The CDC cautions that it should not be used to compare doctors and clinics. This data represents the outcomes of IVF cycles when using a person's own eggs.

For more information please see our FAQs.

Where you see a “?” on the chart, a clinic has done fewer than 20 cycles in this category and age range, so the CDC says showing percentages from this small data set would be misleading and unreliable.

Success w/ Doc Not sure
Dr. Westphal has a wonderful bedside manner. She was warm and welcoming, and had already reviewed our case history therefore we didn't need to repeat ourselves over and over again. One of the major weaknesses was although she was our doctor, we only met her once at the first appointment. The rest of the meetings were with doctors on site and the nursing team....we just did a transfer with Dr. Westphal.
The clinic [Kindbody - Silicon Valley] is very chic, warm and welcoming. The rooms are very pretty and equipment is brand new. The only weakness is that there are not many Kindbody locations therefore it was almost an hour to drive to the clinic...The nursing staff in charge of blood collection was amazing. They had music playing in the room, and they were extremely kind and compassionate. The receptionist was always warm and welcoming. The nurse who would see me after my appointment was a bit cold and lacked compassion; she was very matter-of-fact in her approach.

  • Failed to convey critical information
Describe the specific things that went wrong at Kindbody - Silicon Valley.
My clinic promised that the cost of moving my embryos from Toronto to San Francisco would be covered by my fertility benefits. Later on, once the embryos arrived at the clinic, they delayed my reimbursement for months without any clear communication. Finally, after 8 months I received my reimbursement.
