RMA of New Jersey

Dr. Maguire is the best doctor I have ever met. She saw something on my Fallopian tube and recommended removal before trying to have a baby. Her judgment was spot on- and her surgical skills remarkable. I had no pain from the surgery at all. She then made the process of having a healthy baby as an older mother smooth and seamless. I give her the highest recommendation.

You are so lucky to get to work with her.

I don’t recall

It was very seamless. I went In before work and was out by 7 am.

She was very nice, sensitive to situation yet honest of options. Very knowledgeable in explaining procedures and proccesses.

For any doctor.Take notes. Write down questions be prepared when meeting with doctor.easier on emotions.and understanding what's next

Too much details to remember and write here. Tried egg retrieval with hormone shots first time. My choice was to try one more tome Then on to using donor eggs.

Early mornings. Some times many ppl. Some tines just a few. But still able to get to work on time.

Some general things covered by insurance Otherwise all out of pocket Medications reached about $7000 or so. All in all at this point, sperm donors With 2 egg retrevals, and now egg donor. Have reached $77000

Dr Hong is excellent but the setup at RMA of NJ is very impersonal and doesn't make for optimal patient experience.

You must be very proactive in managing your care. Dr Hong is great but you need to fight to get to her through the nursing staff, which can be difficult to deal with.

Really crowded on weekends - 90+ min wait even just for bloodwork. Weekdays better but you have to go really early.

She listened to our situation and got us started right away. There was no wait time to get moving with treatment. When I had a delay due to a cyst she called me over the weekend to check in. She talked to me for over an hour.

Just be aware she does not perform the egg retrieval or transfer, it will be another RMA Doctor.

Varied day to day based on which Doctor did monitoring hours.

It was 100% covered by insurance

Dr. Kim was was great. I got the results I wanted quickly so I did not need to see him often. He was surprised at how good my eggs were and said I had the eggs of a 34 year old. I trusted him with all procedures.

I was a 40 yr old single woman with a blocked tube. IUI was recommended with the help of Clomid and an objectively that I dont remember. We did IUI on 2 co securities mornings and I was pregnant with twins on that first try.

My insurance covered all tests, medications, and care. My out of pocket expense was for the donor sperm and IUI procedure.

She made eye contact, spoke clearly and honestly, and fielded our many questions with patience. She was upfront about success rates, which are low for us, and which were not explained to us when we did IUI and IVF in the other clinics we went to.

Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Gonal-F, Ganirelix, Menopure. Then Ovidrell and Luprolide for trigger.

The hours were adjusted because of the coronavirus, so there was a longer window of time than normal, which allowed less congestion. For this reason I didn't have to wait long. Still one time I did have to wait over 20 minutes in the room, as the person monitoring me was on a patient call.

Just medication, which was through CVS Caremark - about $350.

She prefers to do single transfer. I have read enough about the complications with multiple transfers and didn't question it.

During our initial consultation, I was immediately confident in Dr Drews. He studied my medical history from front to back and gave me the raw honest truth while still being kind and gentle. He was patient with me while I asked questions and wanted me to fully understand the process. Don’t expect to hear directly from him through the course of treatment. He does communicate through your assigned nurse but your answers are never left unanswered!

Trust in him! He knows what he’s doing. He’s one of the founding partners and this is his life’s work. Again, you may not see him as often as you think but he is fully committed to you and your case.

Monitoring appointments were a set amount of hours in the morning before regular 9-5 hours which was very convenient. I barely waited for more than 20 minutes since I would get there at 6am when they opened. You are in and out without being rushed.

I don’t have a breakdown but all in all, a little under $18,000 without medication. My insurance covered about $11,000 and I paid $7,000 out of pocket. My insurance also paid all medications.

Dr Drews did advise on a single embryo transfer since my embryos were tested and genetically normal to reduce the risk of multiples and preterm labor.

From the day I met dr. Maguire I trusted her 100%. Super personable, knowledgeable, professional, confident and humble. Out of 3 transfers she did 2 and both resulted in pregnancy. One is 2.5 year old now and second currently 27 weeks. We could not be more happier with her care; her diagnosis and treatment were spot on, no adjustments no change of protocol or medication. We are forever grateful.

Ask questions and be honest. She will not promise you anything but will give you hope and she will deliver the results.

Egg retrieval Estradiol Gonal Low dose HCG Trigger shot -ovidrell Frozen Transfer Progesterone in olive oil Endometrin -

The monitoring hours were very convenient especially if you are working. During Covid they were organized in alphabetical order. Prior to covid, easy, professional, quick

For 1st cycle we used insurance with copay and some treatments were not covered so it was around 11K but for the second one we used Progny coverage and basically cost us close to nothing

We trusted dr. Maguires approach and we went with single embryo transfer

We came to Dr. Yih because our previous doctor, Dr. Kaser, moved to California. We have embryos from our previous IVF round and were looking for someone to manage our upcoming embryo transfer. Dr. Yih was very flexible in scheduling our consultation appointment due to our work schedule and distance we needed to travel. During our appointment she was very kind and thorough. She reviewed our medical history and explained what the next steps could look like. We left feeling very comfortable and well informed.

We really don't have anything to recommend other than schedule an appointment and go meet her! (and ask to have Jen as your nurse)

We have not begun the embryo transfer cycle yet. I will update when we begin.

Our insurance does not cover infertility. Our consultation was approximately $200 and our initial testing (blood/saline sonogram) was approximately $1,000.

Strong preference for single embryo transfer.

Dr Kasee is a great listener. He reviews all my records prior to meeting with me and always shows up prepared. He is a great colloborator. My situation is complicated because both my partner and I are healthy, no issues, except my age of 39. I received medical advice from an infertility specialist through a 3rd party program. Dr Kaser reviewed my report with me and incoporated some of the protocol in my cycle. He's also collaborated with other doctors at RMA on my case to have a second set of eyes assist with a very complicated case.

Do you research because Dr Kaser is a professional who wants his patients to be at the table making decisions with him. Come prepared with questions, he is very patient and will answer all your questions.

I was under Dr. Kaser's care for my 3rd FET. He had me take my estrace pills vaginally to increase the lining quicker and the standard progesterone dosage. Prior to the cycle he performed an ERA and endometrial biopsy to ensure we were transfering on the right day and there was no infection. Unfortunately my 3rd FET resulted in a negative pregnancy test and we will be changing the protocol significantly for my 4th

With just Dr Kaser about 15,000

I feel that all doctors at RMA that I have met with are strongly against multiple embryo transfers. Yet Ive had 3 failed transfere with pgs tested embryos. We may consider putting in 2 if my 4th transfer fails.

He was super genuine and explained everything well. I would have liked to see him more frequently but that ended up happening when my case became more complex. He was good about returning phone calls and never rushed through the conversations.

If you are the type of person that needs all of info up front, ask for it. They only give you as much as you need unless you ask for more.

For retrieval, gonal f, cetrotide, low dose hcg For transfer progesterone suppositories

I never waited long. I got there when they opened and was seen quickly for bloodwork and then for an ultrasound. I was often in and out in about 10 minutes

Storage of frozen embryos and anything related to genetic testing as well as medication copays

I had some complications with my first pregnancy so he would only implant one as it was safest for me and baby

Dr Yih was very nice and knowledgeable. she always was forthcoming with information and answered our questions. She was usually easy to get a hold of if needed but sometimes I felt like she thought we were a lost cause and not given the same attention as younger patients. Time is not on our side and she pretty much told us that too. I am a very optimistic person and always kept telling myself that this is possible even though times she acted like we were out of our league.

Always stay optimistic even if she says there is little hope. Where this is life there is always hope. Ask a lot of questions and don't stop until you get the complete answer to your question even if it is not the answer you want to hear.

Dr Yih only did 2 chlomid cycles with us because my insurance would not pay for the ivf at the time. I did a few FSH blood test to see if I still had viable eggs. although my numbers were going up they were still in the range of having viable eggs even though I was 45 years old. I feel she should have tried to take some eggs to freeze and or test to see if they were of a good quality. now that I am 50 I know that my eggs are not a quality that I could use them for my own ivf. Neither of the rounds of chlomid were positive. I was glad to try them because it gave me hope that it definitely could happen for us because if you don't try you have 0 chance of getting pregnant.

my insurance at the time only paid for diagnostic tests and not the actual ivf or iui but it did cover the meds like cholmid. although the first initial visit was about $300 that I didn't have the money to pay for and my fiancée had to pay for it until I could reimburse him (we were not married yet) and now that I have a better job with better insurance it covers most of the office visits and meds but because of the age limit on the mandate it will not pay for the IVF.

Dr. Yih did discuss the eSET with us but didn't really comment if it was the best solution or not. I did a lot of research and found that the eSET was actually healthier for the mother not having the stress of carrying multiples and especially because my husband does not want twins.

Dr. Kaser is exactly the doctor you want for any scenario, but especially for something as emotionally and physically draining as infertility. He is extremely knowledgeable, willing to listen to ideas, explains his methodology, pays attention to every minor detail, answers all questions (no matter how big, small, or ridiculous you may seem to think they may be), shares in the highs and lows, best personality for infertility. I could keep going on and on - so happy we were recommended to him.

Ask questions. Ask all your questions, don’t google answers, get answers from Dr. Kaser. He’s very knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate, and patient.

We began with comprehensive bloodwork and screening for both my husband and me. It was already decided I’d do a freeze all retrieval using my husband’s sperm. I took CoQ10 600mg daily, baby aspirin, and other vitamins to begin with. My husband also had to take meds. I had follistim objectively twice a day (I think 225iu twice a day), as well as lo dose hcg, microdose lupron, and a trigger shot. This was my fifth Retrieval (the precious ones were at another clinic). Due to my precious retrieval’s, Dr Kaser adjusted the timing to do it a little earlier since it seemed like a previous one was a little late. We did CCS testing and we had 4 genetically normal embryos - the most at one time ever. Next he texted my lining and discovered I’d need to do a transfer one day earlier than standard, and that served as a scratch to get the embryo to stick. For the frozen embryo transfer cycle, I used endometrin 3 times a day, methotrexate (I believe) for about a week, Valium day of transfer (to relax uterus) and laser acupuncture, and was successful the first transfer! I preferred not to know the sex until I got a positive result. It was amazing to get the call that it was positive! When I next met with Dr. Kaser for my scan we were both beyond thrilled. I then asked for the sex of the baby and he told me.

I at times felt rushed by seeing other women in the waiting room or elevator, but once signed in would always be taken within 10 minutes for blood work, and then within 10 minutes to the room (usually faster). The phlebotomists were friendly and did a great job finding a vein (mine are always so hard to find), the nursing staff was great, and even if I didn’t see my doctor, the one on duty always took time to go over and explain my ultrasound, the protocol, and answer all my questions.

I had to pay a $25 copay a few times before I met my out of pocket limit with insurance. Also the insurance I had covered unlimited infertility treatments and it covered my medicine 100% after meeting my out of pocket. I did have to pay $2500 for embryo testing, $600 for the ERA, and $200 for laser acupuncture day of transfer. Insurance also covered freezing and storage of semen and embryos.

He preferred eSet and I decided to go with his expertise. (Even though I so wanted to make sure I would be pregnant and was considering multiple embryo transfer. He was confident that a single embryo would work and he was right!)

From our first meeting with Dr. Doherty we knew we were at the right place with the right doctor. He listened to our concerns and fears and answered all of our questions honestly and professionally. He set up a game plan that we were comfortable with and took it on with confidence. Our first retrieval was successful with 32 eggs retrieved and 3 embryos to freeze. I was thankful to have Dr. Doherty perform my transfer and was ecstatic to get the call from him saying I was pregnant! Unfortunately, at my 6 week ultrasound Dr. Doherty cautioned us that the baby's heartbeat was a bit slow. We came back two days later to find out it was barely there and the growth had stopped. We went back two days after that and saw Dr. Yi for the ultrasound which showed the faintest of heartbeats. Dr. Doherty personally called us that evening to see how we were holding up. That phone call meant the world to us. After the D&C, testing showed an unbalanced translocation. Since that was my third loss, Dr. Doherty wasted no time and had a karyotype done on us and found that I have a balanced translocation. With that, as relieved as I was to have an answer, I was terrified it was the end of the road for us. Dr. Doherty explained what this meant for us with compassion and was hopeful that with lots of eggs to work with and testing of our embryos, we would get pregnant with a healthy baby. We got ready for another retrieval and were again successful with 45 eggs retrieved this time! Six made it to testing and two were normal. I was again, grateful to have Dr. Doherty perform my second transfer which resulted in a positive pregnancy test! I was terrified that each ultrasound would bring bad news. Dr. Doherty comforted our fears and really helped us get through those first weeks without going insane. If I had a question, he answered it. If I had a concern, he addressed it. It was so bittersweet when we graduated from RMA and Dr. Doherty's care. Happy we made it this far, sad to leave Dr. Doherty and the RMA family that we had come to love.

His calm and optimistic demeanor will get you through the good and the bad. Trust him!

It was a well-oiled machine and did not interfere with work or my day.

We were extremely lucky to have mostly everything covered by insurance. We only paid out of pocket for ultrasound co-pays, cryopreservation, PGD/CCS testing, and acupuncture before and after transfer.

I was sure that transferring two embryos would give us the best odds. Dr. Doherty explained in detail the benefits of eSET with my age and BT. We are so glad we took his advice and transferred one embryo.

Dr. Doherty has incredible "bedside manner" and is able to communicate down to the individual detail but with a very compassionate tone. He and his assistants were always very responsive to all our phone and email questions, getting back to us often within an hour or two if during business hours or immediately the next morning if it was a non-urgent request in the evening. We had to undergo several procedures and each time Dr. Doherty described the procedures in detail as well as the impact to our timeline. Since Dr. Doherty is part of a larger practice (RMA), we did not see him every time at the Hamilton office. Instead we saw other doctors part of the practice for bloodwork and ultrasounds. However, we were OK with that because we didn't have any issues with any of the other doctors. In addition, if Dr. Doherty felt that it was important to meet us in person for a particular discussion, he would request that and we would see him directly. Dr. Doherty was orders of magnitude better than our first doctor we saw at a different practice.

Keep in mind RMA is distributed across multiple sites and you may not always see Dr. Doherty if you are at a satellite location. For us this wasn't an issue because Dr. Doherty was always very aware of our latest bloodwork and ultrasound and we were able to communicate often over email and phone.

For us, Dr. Doherty started right on IVF preparation because we had multiple failed IUI cycles and a failed IVF cycle with another practice. We appreciated that he listed to our current state and was willing to pick up with the other practice left off. He also performed surgery twice to remove fibroids prior to the egg retrieval/transfer.

The majority of our costs were covered by insurance except for the genetic counseling and genetic testing. We visited the dietian (covered), a genetic counselor ($100ish?), did laser accupuncture before/after a transfer ($200), and did the genetic testing ($2000ish?)

The doctor was friendly and approchable. She made me feel relax to talk to her. She understood my challenge and was blunt and open and honest with me. I appreciate her being sensitive to my challenges at the same time she gave me reality of things

Be patient with the process

- Weekly blood work - Weekly ultrasound - Daily email communication with the support staff including nurse and finance dept. - 3x a day shots - prep for suggery - Communication with doctor before surgery and communication with doctor after

The time slot for monitoring appointments was long enough that when you come in your not crowded. The person that does the blood work, is friendly and work fast . Their goal is to get you in and get you out to start your day.

including insurance coverage 8k

Dr. Kaser met with us for almost two full hours on our first visit. He is monitoring our current IVF cycle from NJ (we live in PA). He has called on several occasions to check-in, see if we have any questions and touch-base about any upcoming changes. I can't express enough how professional and thorough he has been with us.

Don't be deceived by the look of the Hamilton office. It seems a little bit like a hole in the wall, but don't worry.

Waiting for this at the moment.

Not sure yet... there are a couple variables in play. Most likely between $20,000 - $40,000.

RMA in general prefers frozen, single embryo transfers and cites this as best practice.

I wish every iui and ultrasound was with Dr. Doherty. I recommend him all the time. He is honest, caring and compassionate. He tells all the facts even if you don't want to hear them which helps me be an informed patient.

Go for it!

I wish Dr Doherty was always the physician I would see. I did have an IUI with a trigger shot based on an ultrasound someone else did and he even said he would have maybe waited another day.

IUI mostly covered by insurance

Dr. Doherty refuses to allow me to transfer two embryos on my first IVF attempt. Even though I very much want to, he explained the risks of transferring two and the evidence surrounding eSET. I know that his decision is with my safety in mind.

Dr. Treiser was the primary doctor behind my treatment plan, however I did not see her for monitoring appointments. She did perform my transfer. As it is a large clinic, many doctors were seen throughout my treatment. I was assigned a coordinator, who acted as the go between between myself and Dr. Treiser.

She is not the most warm and fuzzy person, but she knows what she is doing!

I don't recall specifics. The egg donor cycle was successful, but my previous estrogen priming protocol had resulted in embryos that did not make it to transfer.

Monitoring appointments in Hamilton were during a window of time, but patients were typically moved in and out fairly quickly.

Fortunately, I had great health insurance. I was responsible for the fee for the donor, medications and copays.

Overall my husband and I enjoyed working with Dr. Yih. She was our biggest supporter through everything and worked to make this process as easy to understand as possible. If she was not the dr to perform a procedure she checked in with me personally as soon as the procedure was over.

I would say not to get frustrated if Dr. Yih isn't able to be at every appointment or monitoring hour. She genuinely cares for the patients and takes part in both the joys and sadness that occur along the way. She is so supportive.

He’s kind, empathetic, well-versed, smart, and covers many options/concerns. We were nervous but he calmed us. He even suggested a therapist for sex therapy since he recognized how difficult infertility could be on a marriage

Listen to him, ask lots of questions, be patient. No one is a miracle worker

I remember a lot of tests. I took clomid even though it was male factor. They said it helped out chances of a successful IUI.

I am still currently under the care of Dr. Doherty. I just started my cycle but so far he has been an amazing doctor.

He always called me himself with both good and bad news. He kept positive and did two out of three transfers himself. He spent time helping me understand all peocedures and options. And support me on this two year journey.

Be honest and take his advice

15 000 egg retrieval and 4000 each transfer

He recommended a single transfer for me so that i won't have twins

RMA is expensive, and they are not compassionate when it comes to multiple cycle costs, not necessarily the Doctor but they don't get involved and honestly they should know. They recommend IVF straight away, and in my case that was not the best course of action. I had more testing that should have been done, to realize it was a waste of $28K. I asked Dr. Jurema if there were more tests we could do after my 3rd miscarriage, and he recommended we do another cycle and just pay for the new advanced testing. I had already done testing and had 1 embryo, this recommendation did not make me feel confident and I changed direction after much research.

Don't be afraid to ask questions, and trust your gut.

3 IUI's, 1st round with clomid then switched brands to Letrozole 1 IVF round after unsuccessful IUIs, were doing fresh transfer and was told 1 day before that they were freezing them instead to give them 1 more day to advance After miscarrying with IVF, insurance only covered IUIs. Although they were not successful, they were covered by insurance and we did 4 cycles. First round with Letrozole and developed vertigo like symptoms, we switched to injectables. Unsuccessful 4 IUIs to follow.

Always busy and would often take an hour before it was your turn.

IUI's: around 8K total IVF with medication: 28K

They recommended eSET, and did not feel multiple transfer would be as safe.

In our first meeting with Dr. Jurema we felt confident and comfortable with an IUI approach after learning that we had unexplained infertility. Dr. Jurema was smart, polite and attentive during that meeting. At that time the facility was IVF NJ and at the beginning of our cycle I had one appointment at Dr. Jurema's office where I saw him and discussed day-to-day actions. After that, the facility merged with RMA. From that time on we were not able to speak to Dr. Jurema, nor were our appointments with him. We were given the doctor of the moment or the nursing staff for the rest of cycle 1 and cycle 2. During cycle 2, we requested that Dr. Jurema call us after we were given incorrect information by his colleague. When we did receive his call he was cold and short, providing very little understanding. We asked for more personalized care, which he was not able to provide. We emailed Dr. Jurema when we left the facility explaining that we were unable to continue due to the lack of attentiveness and personalization. Unfortunately it appears that Dr. Jurema is handcuffed by RMA, but we can't say for sure as we were only with him a short time before the facility transitioned.

Be prepared for very little interaction with him.

We agreed to move forward with an IUI strategy. Through Dr. Jurema and RMA we completed one Hysterosalpingogram, which revealed that my left fallopian tube was stretched and taught, but otherwise fine. Dr. Jurema explained that we could complete further testing to determine if it was endometriosis or we could move ahead with the IUI as sometimes it's possible that a woman's natural anatomy can be a cause. We opted to move forward with IUI only, no further testing. We completed two IUIs, each with a round of Letrozole (alternative to Clomid) and a trigger shot (hcg). On the second IUI cycle we also had to take a second trigger shot. Unfortunately I do not remember the doses. Both cycles resulted in negative pregnancy tests.

Covered by insurance. Co-pay was our only out of pocket outside of medication.
