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 Too early to know
Dr. Buyuk is very realistic and data driven but never once have I felt like a number. He is forthcoming about the statistical likelihood that something will be successful but remains positive and encouraging even if the odds aren’t high...Dr. Buyuk is very clear...He is positive and encouraging but realistic and I find that to be very comforting and makes me trust his recommendations.
The clinic staff [at RMA of New York] is very welcoming and thorough. I have had great interactions with all people I’ve met in person. Unfortunately, the finance team hasn’t been quite as responsive via e-mail, but I’ve still gotten the information I needed...I was told that my insurance covered the IUI process only for the claim to be denied as I had thought it would be prior to being assured that it was covered.
How was your experience with Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
Dr. Buyuk is very clear in making sure that the statistical likelihood of any procedure will result in a pregnancy or will help in the fertility process, which I really appreciated. He is positive and encouraging but realistic and I find that to be very comforting and makes me trust his recommendations.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
Don’t expect Dr. Buyuk to be inauthentically positive about your chance of a successful outcome but you can count on him to support you through every step of your journey.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
Dr. Buyuk is very realistic and data driven but never once have I felt like a number. He is forthcoming about the statistical likelihood that something will be successful but remains positive and encouraging even if the odds aren’t high.
Describe the protocols Erkan Buyuk used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
I have done my initial fertility testing, blood work and genetic testing to make sure that everything was in order to do a natural cycle IUI. Based on those results he prescribed me vitamin D (I was deficient) and advised to to choose a sperm donor that was CMV negative as I am CMV negative and that could have negative ramifications should I become pregnant using CMV positive sperm. After my initial results showed that I was ready to go forward with an IUI cycle, I did Day 3 bloodwork at the beginning of my menstrual cycle. When I received baseline results we did an ultrasound on day 12 of my cycle to see if my follicles were mature enough and I received a prescription of Ovidrel to take after my follicles matured enough. As my follicles were growing at the expected rate, I was advised to take my trigger shot of Ovidrel the following night. Then I came in two mornings later for my IUI. The procedure went as planned but unfortunately I did not become pregnant. I started the cycle again when I began menstruating and I am currently days away from my second ultrasound.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of New York. (Assigned nurse: Allie)
Allie has been extremely warm, responsive and clear. She has provided me with all the help I need and helped make sure that I understood what was coming up next.

Dr Nazem was caring and thorough with all meetings. She took time to listen, answer questions and provide valuable insight, along with providing facts to backup all information provided. I always felt like she was aware of and on-top of my specific treatment plan and looked at me as an individual patient, rather than just another “number” coming in to be seen. Her care was exceptional and the main reason I stayed with this practice.
Dr Nazem was incredible. I would give her a 10/10 rating and recommend anyone see her, giving her full faith in trust. The [RMA of New York] office itself was the weakness in my experience- I didn’t find anyone else to be caring, helpful or supportive- in some cases, it was very frustrating working with faculty / staff, while undergoing such sensitive treatment. The staff should be trained to be more positive, supportive and helpful- especially given the sensitive nature of what patients are going through. I will note -The nurses who did the blood draws were all fantastic and appreciate their care and kindness with each visit. Also- in my case everything that was majorly important all went to plan so in the bigger picture, I still think the experience was a great one- improvements can be made with the back office, but the overall experience lead to positive and successful results so I would recommend anyone to the practice without hesitation
How was your experience with Taraneh Nazem at RMA of New York?
Dr Nazem was the sole reason I stayed with the practice and was a recurring patient at RMA of NY (even after moving and having to travel a distance to come into the office). She was knowledgeable, trustworthy, thorough, and factual yet kind, caring, compassionate and supportive. I always felt taken care of and in great hands when seeing or speaking with her and had full faith in her direction and instructions. She has a rare mix of skills as a doctor that are invaluable in todays world of medicine. I truly appreciate all she has done for me and my family and consider us extremely lucky to have been paired with her as our doctor, from 2019-2023, resulting in one healthy child and an active pregnancy now. I believe our success has come as a direct result from her knowledge, timing and treatment. I can’t say enough good things about her and her work. I will note, I was seen by other doctors during my years at RMA for checkup appointments, and none of them shared these qualities or skills. I was always most comfortable discussing my care with her and do not think I would have been at the practice if she was not my doctor.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Taraneh Nazem at RMA of New York?
Dr Nazem is so knowledgeable and skilled that your treatment and care will be guided in the best possible way for the best possible result. She only wants you to have a successful outcome, so know that every step taken (whatever it is, even if it means it’s a setback) will lead you to that successful outcome you hope for. Trust the process and that she will lead you every step of the way!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Taraneh Nazem at RMA of New York?
Dr Nazem was caring and thorough with all meetings. She took time to listen, answer questions and provide valuable insight, along with providing facts to backup all information provided. I always felt like she was aware of and on-top of my specific treatment plan and looked at me as an individual patient, rather than just another “number” coming in to be seen. Her care was exceptional and the main reason I stayed with this practice.
Describe the protocols Taraneh Nazem used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
I believe treatment strategies were all standard for IVF- doses of oral medications and injections leading up to and after procedures to support the pregnancy. All videos provided to help educate on the usage and reasoning was helpful in understanding why each step and dosage was necessary to support pregnancy and to help my body do what it needs to do to produce a successful result. I trusted all strategies and protocols and never had to question rationale behind the “plan” for treatments. All was well documented and explained!
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of New York. (Assigned nurse: Julia Ullman)
All other staff simply did their jobs. I don’t believe anyone went above and beyond or connected with me in a way that was meaningful to my treatment or cycle. I believe nurses and staff simply completed tasks— if I had questions, I would be deferred to dr nazam appointments for answers.. they did their job and were helpful but if there was any “downside” to the practice it was the staff outside of Dr Nazem herself… specifically- I had issues with orders for medications being sent to right pharmacy, financial coorination/communication, and issues with the medical records department. I had to be on top of my care in all Ways and aspects - encountering issues throughout the treatment cycles. All got sorted- but there was a lot of miscommunication and frustration on the back-end office side of things.

Describe the specific things that went wrong at RMA of New York.

Dr. Buyuk is very objective and this help set reasonable expectations for me...With my first cycle I ovulated early and while this was devastating for me he changed my protocol and I never had this problem again. I honestly think other clinics wouldn’t have taken me on as a patient due to my diminished ovarian reserve but I’m forever grateful Dr. Buyuk accepted the challenge...He has reached out to me during critical parts of my treatment to review next steps which meant a lot to me...
RMA is a very organized clinic. They have a very high volume which makes me feel comfortable with their expertise. They also have multiple offices for monitoring which was helpful since I work at offices through the city. The early morning hours were perfect and did not interfere with my job. A drawback is that you see different doctors for your monitoring but they all really good to it’s nice to meet all the doctors...
How was your experience with Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
Dr. Buyuk is very objective and this help set reasonable expectations for me. I do prefer matter of fact recommendations so I think this is why Dr. Buyuk was a good fit for me. When he told me he was happy with a cycle a new it was genuine. With my first cycle I ovulated early and while this was devastating for me he changed my protocol and I never had this problem again. I honestly think other clinics wouldn’t have taken me on as a patient due to my diminished ovarian reserve but I’m forever grateful Dr. Buyuk accepted the challenge.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
My first impression was that he came off as pretty serious. I wasn’t sure if he would be a good fit for me because I thought I wanted a doctor to sugar coat my results and be extra bubbly. Now that I’ve worked with him for over a year I’ve seen that he actually is still serious in helping me achieve my goals but also very kind and compassionate. He’s actually a lovely person!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York?
Dr. Buyuk has always been very kind to me. He has reached out to me during critical parts of my treatment to review next steps which meant a lot to me. There were several times during my treatment where I was discouraged about my results but he was very confident that he could help me with my family planning goals despite the seriousness of my low AMH. I now I have many normal embryos ready for transfer thanks to Dr.Buyuk’s expertise and patience.

Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of New York.
Everyone is assigned a time to come in during monitoring hours. What’s nice is that they will see you early or later depending on when you show up. The whole process is pretty efficient. The doctor assigned to do monitoring will do your scans which may not be your doctor. They are all really nice and walk you through what they find on the ultrasound. Very good experience.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Erkan Buyuk at RMA of New York.
My insurance only paid for one cycle. Medications were about 5k per cycle and the egg retrieval was about 15k per cycle

Dr. Lederman has been optimistic about our success. He is thorough during our appointments and notices small details. When I had a chemical pregnancy just prior to starting treatments he called me personally to discuss it...He always asks how I'm doing, how I'm feeling and asks about my plans...For my three IUI cycles I took letrozole and the trigger shot without any negative side effects. For IVF, when preparing for egg retrieval, I was on Antagonist protocol. I took 225 units of Gonal F in the morning and 2 vials of Menopur at night.
I think the [RMA of New York] clinic has excellent wait time. Appointments are readily available. You can be in and out very quickly for your routine monitoring appointments which is great before work. There are multiple people available to take your blood in the morning so that is quick. Rooms are almost always ready so ultrasound is also quick. The office is of course always clean and looks nice.

I took 225 units of Gonal F in the morning and 2 vials of Menopur at night. Then we increased the dosage to 3 vials of Menopur plus Cetrotide. Then I took a dual trigger shot. The only rationale I remember was my AMH was a little low so we wanted to go a little more aggressive with the stims.

Dr. Klein is very good at what does. A real profesional with tribal knowledge in his field. He was encouraging but never pushy. I was expecting the process to be very overwhelming especially going through it alone, but it ended up being very manageable and the experience overall was very empowering. He personally called me after the procedure and went over the results with me. He was very thorough and precise, which eases my mind especially at such a busy clinic. There were no mistakes made. A big thanks to Dr. Klein and the amazing nurses and medical staff that work with him.
The strengths [at RMA of New York] would be fast service. I never had to wait long once I checked in for morning monitoring. Their facilities were very clean and organized...The nurses were amazing. They explained everything and responded to every email. Sometimes it was hard to get through right away, with playing phone tag, but I never had to wait long to get a call back. They were kind and professional. They truly made the process a positive experience.

Describe the protocols Jeffrey Klein used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
Dr. Klein started me off on a higher dose of medications to stimulate my ovaries, because he wanted me to be happy with my results. Once my levels started to show growth, he brought me dosage back to the standard levels. I ended up with very good results, and I appreciate that he had the expertise to get me there.

The strengths would be fast service. I never had to wait long once I checked in for morning monitoring. Their facilities were very clean and organized. I don't think of this as a weakness but the only thing that I can think of that could use improvement would be more space to wait at White Plains location. My advice to a new patient is to get to your appointments early and wear shirts that are easy to pull your sleeve up (or a t-shirt) for the blood work.also don't forget to do your COVID screening online before you arrive at the office.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Jeffrey Klein at RMA of New York.
Altogether I spent over $12,000 (out of pocket) on my egg freezing cycle. That included the retrieval cost, medication, anesthesia, and office co-pays/lab fees. This is about what I expected to pay.

Success w/ Doc Too early to know
Dr. Lekovich is incredibly intelligent, kind, and an overall badass superhero doctor! She was very patient with me and made me feel like I was in excellent, expert hands throughout the process. She was also my husband's provider, and I felt the same level of care from her throughout both our processes...also provided care to my transgender partner and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and respected throughout a potentially triggering process.
[RMA of New York] Strengths: multiple locations, so you can choose monitoring appointments at locations convenient for you; incredibly talented doctors Weaknesses: sometimes response to emails is slow and disorganized and you just have to be patient (they will address everything eventually!)...Very efficient system for monitoring appointments. As a doctor myself, I was impressed with how smooth their flow was. Also very easily to reschedule monitoring appointments or change them to a different clinic location.

[Dr. Jovana Lekovich is] caring and easy to talk to - knowledgeable: especially around LGBTQI+ care - very professional - will give you information based on data - takes the time to explain the process and helps you understand it better - supportive and reassuring you throughout the process...I could not imagine going through the egg retrieval process without someone as caring, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable as Dr. Jovana Lekovich.
[RMA of New York] clean and airy facility - great intake process, easy to follow, and thought out for the patient to get the most out of it while there - front desk is efficient at checking you in - phlebotomists - are very kind and respectful They have multiple clinics - the Brooklyn one is also more diverse when it comes to other clients too...My pronouns were always used appropriately and respectful language was used all the time. Furthermore, I did not feel discriminated, but on the contrary it was nice not having to explain my care needs.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Jovana Lekovich at RMA of New York?
Be a bit flexible with your time, sometimes appointments can take longer or less. But be assured they are doing their best to accommodate you.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Jovana Lekovich at RMA of New York?
I could not imagine going through the egg retrieval process without someone as caring, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable as Dr. Jovana Lekovich. The first time I met her for our consultation, she walked me through the entire process, explaining every scientific aspect (even had a nice visual presentation!), answering patiently and non-judgmentally all my questions, and reaching out when I had specific concerns. To add to this, I did not feel that a doctor was talking down to me, but rather that she was on a journey with me. She patiently listened to my concerns and discussed all options that I had. Following up, when I met her for the first time in person, she was very easy going, friendly, with a great sense of humor, and the kind of doctor who was concerned about my overall well being. Furthermore, as an LGBTQI+ patient, my specific concerns were always addressed and understood. As an example, there were certain procedures that would have made me as a transgender man incredibly uncomfortable, but we still found workarounds to have a successful outcome without risking the rest of my well-being. It is really refreshing to have a doctor who is informed about LGBTQI+ issues, isn't uncomfortable around it, and will work with you using research and data when presenting you with information. It was really in her manner, knowledge about the LGBTQI+ issues, and care that I nevertheless found comfort in a process that can be incredibly triggering. That being said, I am incredibly grateful to have had a successful egg retrieval experience, due to the care of such an amazing doctor and her team. I highly recommend her!
How competent was Jovana Lekovich at LGBTQ+ care?

Describe your experience with the nursing staff at RMA of New York.
All of my nurses were great. I was able to communicate with them easily, they answered all my questions and even post-care checked on me. Very happy with my experience with them.

Dr. Friedenthal was very helpful from the first time I met with her, explaining every step of the egg freezing process and what to expect. She answered all my questions honestly and in a way I could understand. She always had a smile on her face and was very pleasant to work with on such a personal matter...ncredibly sweet, caring, understanding, and knowledgable. I felt very comfortable in her care
RMA ran like a well-oiled machine, and I was very comfortable with my care there. Everyone was very helpful and friendly...My only minor feedback would be that a couple times there may have been a lack of communication on their end because I would get 2 phone calls from 2 different people about the same topic (for ex: scheduling a follow-up appt). However, over-communication is a good problem to have...Monitoring appts were very efficient, with wait times between about 5-25 minutes.

Describe the protocols Jenna Friedenthal used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
Dr. Friedenthal's team was great - easy to communicate with over email or phone, and for the most part, was very quick to respond. When I couldn't start my egg freezing cycle on the day we had planned due to me being in the wrong part of my cycle, she adjusted my treatment accordingly and quickly. She made the whole process very easy for me.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of New York. (Assigned nurse: Vivyan Lin)
I don't believe I ever met Vivyan in person so I would have liked to do that at some point. But she was very helpful over email, always answering my questions and reiterating that that's what she was there for.
Describe your experience with RMA of New York.
RMA ran like a well-oiled machine, and I was very comfortable with my care there. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. There was one day when I became dizzy after getting bloodwork done, and the nurses took very good care of me in the moment and made sure that at every visit afterward I was drinking lots of fluids. My only minor feedback would be that a couple times there may have been a lack of communication on their end because I would get 2 phone calls from 2 different people about the same topic (for ex: scheduling a follow-up appt). However, over-communication is a good problem to have!
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of New York.
Monitoring appts were very efficient, with wait times between about 5-25 minutes. They always had plenty of staff doing bloodwork and ultrasounds. It was also helpful to have a board at the front desk that would state which doctor(s) were monitoring each morning.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Jenna Friedenthal at RMA of New York.
The total cost of egg freezing including 1 year of storage was about $10,000. Injection medications were about $3,000. Anesthesia for the procedure was about $950. Every 6 months of storage after the first year is about $700.

She [Dr. Tia Jackson-Bey] was present throughout the majority of my appointments and she always made me feel confident about the outcome of procedures. She was right on point and I trusted her decision making a lot. She was diligent and she made great decisions throughout that resulted in a successful pregnancy after the first egg retrieval and subsequent transfer...She gave me a lot of confidence throughout the whole fertility process, without her wonderful bedside manner I wouldn’t have been able to do it.
At times they [RMA of New York] were very busy and the wait times were long. But, I’d say 85 percent of the time I was seen right on time which is great considering how often I would go there for appointments. The other doctors on site were also amazing, so when my doctor wasn’t available I felt comfortable being seen by the other doctors. The ladies at the front desk weren’t the most friendly but they were professional and the waiting room is a serene setting

Dr. Jackson is very personable, I always felt comfortable with her and her and her team were always available to me when I had questions and concerns. She gave me a lot of confidence throughout the whole fertility process, without her wonderful bedside manner I wouldn’t have been able to do it.
Describe the protocols Tia Jackson-Bey used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
At first we did a lot of testing for my partner and I to determine the reason for our unexplained infertility. She knew I was apprehensive to do IVF and she was never judgemental about that and encouraged me to try IUI’s once everything looked clear and healthy for my partner and I. We tried 4 IUI’s and they did not result in pregnancy so I told Dr. Jackson I would like to go for IVF. She was very attentive during the entire process and she said that she would consider 8 eggs a success and that she is optimistic that we could be successful in the first round. She was right. We got pregnant after our first transfer and I was stunned.

Describe Tia Jackson-Bey's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of New York.
We never actually discussed this, I just assumed we would do one transfer since we got a grade A embryo and that’s exactly what she did

Dr Flisser is very thoughtful, compassionate, knowledgeable and pragmatic. Not only was my fertility preservation experience smooth, Dr Flisser also armed me with insightful information and helped frame how to think about my options, fertility evolution and factors influencing it with age.

I can't recommend Dr Flisser enough!

Dr Lekovich is warm and smart. She understood my history of trauma and vaginismus and made me feel oriented. To every procedure and also the whole process. I’m so glad she was my doctor. I saw another doctor elsewhere prior and they didn’t explain the science of eggs and quantity and quality for someone at my age. I felt much more oriented with Jovana and was glad to work with her instead.
this [RMA of New York] clinic was great. i went to the manhattan location once and it was so busy and i wouldn’t recommend it. it felt like a factory. this location all three doctors i met i liked, the nurses were kind. and it’s just a smaller space so you don’t feel like you’re just a number...Dr Lekovich spent a lot of time talking to me before my cycle. And at every appointment she was considerate of my unique needs. She also always replied to my emails and seemed genuinely invested in me.

Dr Friedenthal was always very supportive of the plan my wife and I had to have children. She was caring and guided me through our first IUI which ended in a chemical pregnancy. Then eventually our second IUI resulting in a, so far, healthy pregnancy. I have always felt Ike Dr. Friedenthal always has our best interest in mind...Overall, we had a great experience with Dr. Friedenthal. She was very supportive, informative and caring in regard to our unique experience. I will forever be grateful for her help and expertise and would highly recommend her!
Overall, we had a great experience [at RMA of New York]. I would advise to not be afraid of asking as many questions as possible. Especially about procedures, because I think it’s easy for the healthcare team to forget it may be your ( the patient’s) first time going through this specific situation...The nursing staff was kind and professional. The nursing staff always called promptly with lab results and follow up visits. They always responded to phone calls when I had questions.

Dr. Flisser is able to articulate complex science procedures in a simple manner that made it very easy to understand. He was honest and always provided opinions backed by science. My husband and I trusted him very much and felt that we were in good reliable hands...He backed every statement with scientific evidence which helped us to trust him tremendously. While I did not see Dr. Flisser at every appointment, he advised every treatment. The other doctors in the practice were very friendly and knowledgeable so it was never a concern for me...

How was your experience with Eric Flisser at RMA of New York?
I am so grateful for Dr. Flisser and would recommend him to anyone who is having trouble conceiving. He was recommended to me by my gynecologist. My husband and I were feeling frustrated after having unsuccessfully been trying for a baby for about a year. Dr. Flisser immediately reassured us that we were not alone and that this was a common situation for many. He backed every statement with scientific evidence which helped us to trust him tremendously. While I did not see Dr. Flisser at every appointment, he advised every treatment. The other doctors in the practice were very friendly and knowledgeable so it was never a concern for me. When I had an ectopic pregnancy after my 2nd IUI treatment, Dr. Flisser helped me get through the painful experience and advised that IVF would be the safest next step. Luckily, I took his advice and I am now 9 weeks pregnant, all thanks for Dr. Flisser!

He [Dr. Stein] was honest about my options but reminded me that he would do whatever I wanted to do...if he feels a process isn’t working once we’ve started it he would let me know so as to not waste my time. So I opted for IUI and he said if I wasn’t pregnant by a third cycle we would have to regroup and explore other options...He may not be the doctor you see at every appointment but he’ll make time to meet with a patient if they reach out...
She [nurse at RMA of New York] is responsive, thorough and does not get frustrated with my several calls and emails. The whole staff is very patient and empathetic...they message you directions in an encrypted message after they have explained them over the phone. I wish they would give actual physical prescriptions so patients can pick where to get their meds from for those who are paying out of pocket for IUI and IVF...

Describe the protocols Tanmoy Mukherjee used in your cycles at RMA of New York and their degree of success.
1 cycle - we did Monopur (2-4 vials) Gonal F (300 ml) Cetrotude. Collected 13 eggs, no viable embryo 2 cycle - same but added Clomid - so far this was the most successful cycle, as out of 13 eggs we’ve managed to create 1 healthy embryo 3 cycle repeated the 2nd, however we’ve collected 20 eggs, and no healthy embryo after the 5 days bliocyst and PGT analysis 4 cycle we took slower, I was on the oral contraceptive for few days, then we’re waiting for another few days then minimal dose of Menopur (1 vial), Gonal F (300-175 ml) and Cetrotide. So far collected 19 eggs, hopefully there will be few healthy embryos after that. Still in progress

Describe Tanmoy Mukherjee's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of New York.
Dr.M says that even with 1 healthy embryo there is a big chance to have a healthy baby. I’m being hopeful, but also want more embryos, in case, but also if we can have 2 healthy babies

She [Dr. Sekhon] has very good bedsite manner and explains everything in details, you rarely feel rushed and she is very responsive to emails. Not all monitoring scans are with her and because of the timeline of my follicles, my egg retrieval was also done by another doctor...Unexplained infertility. Stimulation protocol with Letrozole (to agoid hyperstimulation since I had a lot of follicles), menopur and Gonal. Obtained 29 eggs, 21 mature, 17 fertilized, 9 embryos, 5 euploids...
The clinic [RMA of New York] is big and there are a lot of patients, so the monitoring visits are brief. It is very well organized and delays are rare. However, the egg retrieval and transfer experiences, although uneventful, are a little weird, one women after the other. Not very personal...Unfortunately my care coorsinator changed 3 times. They were all nice and responsive...extremely organized, convenient monitoring hours, very responsive and acomodative personal, amazing patient portal...

Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of New York. (Assigned nurse: Carlie)
Unfortunately my care coorsinator changed 3 times. They were all nice and responsive. My latest care coordinator Carlie was the most amazing, responsive and compassionate person, it was a pleasure to work with her and she was my point of support during my last cycle and transfer (successful).

Strenghts: extremely organized, convenient monitoring hours, very responsive and acomodative personal, amazing patient portal. Weakness: too many patients makes it less personal. Try not to get too sensitive about being in a baby factory.

What specific things went wrong at RMA of New York?
  • Failed to order appropriate test
  • Lost or damaged samples
Describe the specific things that went wrong at RMA of New York.
My genetic screening blood sample disappeared. We only realized after 2 weeks when my husband’s results came back but not mine. The second fertility coordinator also forgot to add some tests that were expiring to my monitoring draw. So I had to go to a quest in the last minute not to delay my transfer.
