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.

Review of
[Dr. Jose Pliego's] protocol was clomid and times intercourse. When that failed, we did the Hsg after 3 cycles. Once I was pregnant on the fourth cycle, he monitored my levels and added progesterone... was such a warm and friendly doctor. I always understood everything I was to do and he never made me feel dumb...If I had a worry or question, Dr. Pliego would make sure I got my answers and eliminated any fear I had. He even related his personal experiences with his wife to mine which gave me great comfort
The main nurse [at Scott & White] was amazing! She was pregnant, but never made me feel uncomfortable or sad that I wasn't yet...I never waited long to get in, I got appointments when I needed and the clinic was always clean. It's a beautiful facility. I love how it's connected to the hospital, so even if your doctor is delivering a baby, your appt shouldn't need to be cancelled...Dr. Pliego was such a warm and friendly doctor. I always understood everything I was to do and he never made me feel dumb

He [Dr. Pliego] helped us decide what next steps to take (while leaving the final decisions up to us). He answered our questions and was very knowledgeable. He adjusted the treatment plans when needed. I felt confident that I could trust his judgment...Great bedside manner. I felt like he really cared about our situation...Trust Dr Pliego. Always insist that the nurses and staff ask his opinion when calling with questions...
Scheduling [at Scott & White] was pretty easy most times. Wait times were not long. Communication (calling me back with important information) was not their strong suit...I did not trust the nurse who handled the messages. Several times, her answers to my questions did not seem right, so I asked her to please ask the Dr. His answer was completely different than hers. This happened on more than one occasion...

Dr Wincek had great bedside manor. I appreciated that he actually listened to my concerns & agree to testing that I requested based on my own research & our conversations. I was pleasantly surprised when he did my tests himself rather than just ordering them...Be ready to hear the good, bad and the ugly. He will tell your exactly what’s going on as the information is available to him. Don’t be afraid to explain your concerns and ask for tests.
She [nurse at Baylor Scott & White] was proficient at her job. She handled all of the cases at the time I began treatment and was able to reply to phone calls and emails in a timely manner with accuracy. Kim was caring and knowledgeable. The bedside manner was excellent...There was a set fee for someone with my insurance which was great. $3500 for a mini IVF including monitoring & procedures. Meds had a co-pay set by my insurance. IUI was $800 set including monitoring. Meds were not included.

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
The cycles were set up based on the clinics needs more so than my own. I was put on birth control to sync my cycle with their schedule although down regulation isn’t needed for PCOS pt’s.
Describe the protocols Thomas Wincek used in your cycles at Baylor Scott & White and their degree of success.
We decided to skip the down regulation using birth control based off my diagnosis of PCOS and current research showing it to result in less favorable outcomes. My retreat yielded 9 eggs on a “mini cycle” ( flare , with minimal stimulation) where it had previously only yielded a maximum of 3 eggs. I also had a uterine biopsy done at my request due to previous losses which I felt may have left an infection. The results were positive & treatment proceeded. My next transfer was successful.

Describe your experience with Baylor Scott & White.
The clinic is clean and conveniently located inside of the Scott and White hospital. All tests and procedures can be done on site. Medications can be picked up at the on site pharmacy as well. It can be challenging to get appointments scheduled however the team does their very best to squeeze you in if necessary.

Dr. Wincek was the only doctor willing to help me after 5 long years. He went above and beyond, showed compassion. He was willing to let me try a few things on my own terms, has not been pushy has been completely understanding and respectful. I truly have nothing negative to say about him...His knowledge into infertility is outstanding, he’s willing to bend over backwards to help and accommodate me
[Nursing staff at Baylor Scott & White is] Absolutely amazing!! They never ask what I’m being seen for, they already know because they took the time to read my chart. They interact with you, and help you. Nurse Kimberly the main nurse always open to emailing and answering your questions in a way that you’ll understand. They’ve all been amazing!

He didn’t see me as just a patient, he respectfully treated me. He’s been the most caring respectful doctor I have encountered along my journey. His knowledge into infertility is outstanding, he’s willing to bend over backwards to help and accommodate me. I don’t necessarily enjoy seeing him because that means I’m not pregnant yet, but every visit I leave with a hopeful feeling. He’s been very understanding and very helpful!! Absolutely love dr. Wincek

Strength would be they hired an amazing RE they know what they are doing, they have wonderful staff, clean rooms, very friendly warm welcoming environment. Weaknesses would be, I’m not really sure I’ve seen any or have anything negative to say.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White.
Mine has been 100% covered since my husband is active duty military, but Dr. Wincek has stated IVF is $3,900 plus around 2,000$ for meds.

I did what is known as a “mini” IVF [with Dr. Wincek] I was prescribed 2 fertility oral meds during my cycle to enhance egg production and went in multiple times for ultrasounds. I did a trigger shot prior to egg retrieval...At that point they took my 4 eggs and did ICSI with husbands sperm. I was called every day for 4 days for an update on my embryos...He is the best around and definitely the right price. He is very caring and you can tell he loves his job
The [Baylor Scott & White] clinic is very good at communication. Whenever you make a phone call, they get back to you right away. They are very quick in answering messages through the online portal...All 4 [embryos] made in to blast stage and on day 5 we implanted to fresh embryos and the other 2 were frozen...[nurses] They we always available to talk when I had a question over Mychart or if I called
How was your experience with Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
I have recommended Dr. Wincek to numerous people and they have all resulted in a pregnancy. He is the best around and definitely the right price. He is very caring and you can tell he loves his job. I recently brought my twins to see him and he got very excited. His process is quick and to the point. He knows what to do and when to do it.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
Just let him run all the tests and tell You what he sees because he knows what he is talking about. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
Dr. Wincek is a kind doctor, always talked to me like everything was going to be ok. Very positive attitude.

I did what is known as a “mini” IVF. I was prescribed 2 fertility oral meds during my cycle to enhance egg production and went in multiple times for ultrasounds. I did a trigger shot prior to egg retrieval. I was not sedated during the egg retrieval because not many eggs were produced because I was not given a lot of medicine. At that point they took my 4 eggs and did ICSI with husbands sperm. I was called every day for 4 days for an update on my embryos. All 4 made in to blast stage and on day 5 we implanted to fresh embryos and the other 2 were frozen. I went in a couple weeks later for a blood test and it resulted it a positive. Went in at 7 weeks for ultrasound and found out that one of the embryos had split and was having identical twins. I was released after this ultrasound to my OBGYN.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff at Baylor Scott & White.
The nurses are just as amazing as the doctor. They we always available to talk when I had a question over Mychart or if I called. We had so many visits that the nurses became like friends. After we found out we were pregnant, they lined the hall and congratulated us!
Describe your experience with Baylor Scott & White.
The clinic is very good at communication. Whenever you make a phone call, they get back to you right away. They are very quick in answering messages through the online portal. The clinic is a little older looking so they could use some updated decor but that’s not a big deal. If that is the only weakness I can find then I think they are doing pretty good.

Dr. Wincek is amazing. He cares about what is happening to me. When I get bad news, he seems just as upset as I do. Which lets me know he genuinely cares. And when I stress out about what’s to come, he finds a way to talk to me and make me feel like everything is going to be ok.... Dr. Wincek is just as invested in my journey as I am. I can send messages at any time and get a response. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else.
The clinics [Scott & White] strengths are they are very nice, routinely on time and will answer any questions I have. The only weakness I see... the waiting room is the same waiting area for all pregnant women and newborns. On particularly bad days, it seems like a sick joke. That is what I want so terribly bad.... Every visit is $500. Each IUI is $700. Trigger shot is $150. Next rounds IVF with no anesthesia, will be $3900, not including medications. Insurance covers nothing. No payments. All is due the day before appointment.

Describe the protocols Thomas Wincek used in your cycles at Baylor Scott & White and their degree of success.
Round 1- Femara and Clomid 50mg. I only had 2 follicles. Did a trigger shot and we had sex. Did not work. I didn’t feel many side effects except night sweats on meds. Round 2 - Femara and Clomid 100mg. 5 follicles, trigger shot and then IUI #1. On meds, more night sweats, and a rollercoaster of emotions. Round 3- Femara and Clomid 100mg. 4 follicles. Trigger shot and IUI #2. Lots of crying with meds and headaches. Waiting for results. 9 more days. If no go, we will be doing IVF.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff at Baylor Scott & White.
They are very sweet and kind. I most commonly communicate with one named Kim. I do not know her last name, but she seems very knowledgeable.

From ththe first time we met with Dr. Wincek we knew he was a perfect fit for us. We told him from the beginning of our treatment what we expected and what not. After our first round of meds we conceived but it resulted in a miscarriage. When we went in to the appointment to diagnose as miscarriage he was so sweet and gentle but didn’t sugar coat our questions which from the beginning we told him not to sugar coat stuff for us.
The clinic [Scott & White] is and amazing fit for us and I wouldn’t change anything. The ease for making appointments is great, the entire staff from when you walk off the elevator to when you leave is so friendly and caring. I wouldn’t change anything.... [Nurse] She is amazing and goes above and beyond for all of Dr.Winceks patients.... We paid 3500 for the mini Icsi cycle then the medicated with timed intercourse cycles we paid out of pocket for the medicine which was about 200 a month.

Dr Wincek is very knowledgeable and supremely kind. He was the first Dr I’ve seen for infertility and I was very new to the whole process. He took his time with me and made me feel like o was his only patient. I could tell that he would do everything possible to help my husband and I. He made even the most uncomfortable texting better because of his bedside manner. He was very caring about our course of treatment and very matter of fact. I think it’s importsnt as a new fertility patient to feel peace. I felt that at every visit.
This clinic [Baylor Scott & White] was amazing! I honestly never had a bad moment there. I felt that I was in the best care possible at all times. It was always clean, organized and I never had to wait. They were busy, but I never felt like I was being rushed or that I was just a number. I’m so appreciative of the experience. ... All of Dr Wincheks staff was incredible. They always remembered me. They were funny, kind and made me feel at home.

Describe the protocols Thomas Wincek used in your cycles at Baylor Scott & White and their degree of success.
We did all of my female testing and the results came back very positive. We tested my husband and found out about the male factor. He prescribed clomid. We discussed that IVF May be our best option in our case. We ended up getting out of the military and moving away so unfortunately, we didn’t continue further with him, but we would have if we could have stayed there.

Dr wincek is a very caring doctor. He always makes sure you understand and is always trying his best to help us build a family! ... When it was time for us to go from iui to ivf he let us know right away instead of us wasting our money on an iui that he knew wasn’t a good chance of working. He always worked with me to help me try to figure out meds that would work but still not be as expensive.
Overall they are a very amazing doctors office. Anytime you have a question the nursing staff was very quick to respond to the mychart messages and if they couldn’t answer something they forward it to the dr. Making an appt was always easy and always could get an appt when needed. ... [nursing staff] Very friendly and quick to respond on mychart
How was your experience with Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
I’ve had many people recommend us to dr wincek. They all told me he is a very knowledgeable doctor and it’s very true. He knows what he’s doing! When it was time for us to go from iui to ivf he let us know right away instead of us wasting our money on an iui that he knew wasn’t a good chance of working. He always worked with me to help me try to figure out meds that would work but still not be as expensive. He understands it’s not cheap and doesn’t treat us as a number. He always showed good bedside manners and is a very honest dr and that’s what you need when it comes down to trying to build a family. I’ve never once had a bad experience with him.

my experience [with Dr. Thomas Wincek] has been good although it hasn't resulted in pregnancy yet. He has a great bedside manner and always is encouraging, he answers my questions, tells me what to expect next and is very quick to message back when i use the online portal...we started with Femara, it didn't work for me, we then added clomid, it took a few cycles to find what dosage my body responded to. we upped the dose as needed and would use a trigger shot to ovulate if i had any eggs, the next step since we've done this for 6 months would be the daily hormone injections
[Baylor Scott & White is a] great clinic would highly recommend. This is a complex process so they've been really good about keeping me up to date on what's going on and if it doesn't work then developing a plan of action moving forward...my experience has been good although it hasn't resulted in pregnancy yet...nurses are always very nice...shes so good with making me comfortable and doing small talk...we started with Femara, it didn't work for me, we then added clomid, it took a few cycles to find what dosage my body responded to. we upped the dose as needed and would use a trigger shot to ovulate if i had any eggs, the next step since we've done this for 6 months would be the daily hormone injections

I only wish that [Dr. Thomas Wincek] would have listen to what I wanted...We were undergoing a Mini IVF cycle. I had requested to start on injectable after the first ultrasound showed my follicles weren’t growing fast, he declined and said to continue on my oral meds. After 2 more ultrasounds he finally said to do injectables, but it was too late. We had to cancel the cycle completely due to poor response. I felt like it could have been avoided if we started on injecatbles sooner.
3500 for the mini IVF. Plus 1000 for injections [at Scott & White]...The clinic was great. Fast appointment times and welcoming attitudes from all. I would recommend the clinic to anyone. The prices are affordable as well...I only wish that [Dr. Thomas Wincek] would have listen to what I wanted...We were undergoing a Mini IVF cycle.

Describe the protocols Thomas Wincek used in your cycles at Baylor Scott & White and their degree of success.
I stunned with clomid and genera From cd 3-7. On CD14 he started me on gonal F to see if we could get the 7 follicles to grow any bigger than the 12mm they were at. On cd16 the cycle was cancelled due to no growth.

She responded fast to me any time I sent a message. She also took time to show me the injections once we got them.

Dr. Wincek has always taken his time with me at every appointment and never made me feel rushed on hurried. My current IVF cycle was tailored to my needs and according to my cycle and not clustered together with other IVF cycles.... Multiple rounds of clomid - 2 miscarriages 1 round of femara - unsuccessful Spontaneous conception- miscarriage IVF started to facilitate PGS/PGD
No complaints with the clinic [Scott & White Temple]. Scheduling is easy and appointment reminders are sent via app, phone, and text. Test results are also reviewable via app which is very convienent.... I mostly interact with Dr. Wincek in the office. I email back and forth with his nurse, Kimberly. She is always prompt with returning messages.... All treatments except IVF was covered by insurance. IVF cost is about $10,000 total.
How was your experience with Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
Dr. Wincek is an excellent doctor. He’s answered every question I’ve had and has been compassionate and empathetic through our journey and our losses. He candidly tells us his opinions but also lets me lead my own care. I would definitely recommend him.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Thomas Wincek at Baylor Scott & White?
Be proactive in your own care! He will do everything he can to help you but come to your appointments with your questions prepared so he can answer them for you!

Sometimes I felt as though he [Dr. Thomas Wincek] was too busy to really remember anything about me or my treatment and I'd have to remind him about a lot...He is very sweet and you can tell he not only loves what he does, but he truly cares about his patients. Sometimes you can definitely tell when he's having an "off day" but I genuinely think it's because he takes every success AND failure to heart...he tends to be quick about his appointments.
The nurses [at Scott & White] have always been very friendly. Kimberly, the nurse I message with regularly is such a wonderful person. She's very easy to talk to and sympathetic to all the downfalls and failures. If she doesn't know the answer then she'll find it out for you...It's a fairly standard OB/GYN office. Sometimes they run behind and your wait is longer but they try to get you in as soon as they can and are sincerely apologetic. Everyone is always very friendly and welcoming.

I have had a mostly good experience with [Dr. Jose Pliego]. I see him in the Round Rock office of BSW, and he also practices at the Temple BSW. I feel he listens to me and is always willing to take my ideas and wants into account for treatment...Clomid 50mg, 3 cycles Clomid 50mg, 3 cycles Femara 5mg, 3 cycles Currently prepping for mini IVF cycle
The only downside is [the Scott & White is] a primarily ObGyn clinic with one fertility doc (RE), so mostly you’re sitting in the waiting room with pregnant women...I love the nurses at the Round Rock office, and Kimberly who answers the MyChart messages...On one occasion, I had trouble getting a response from the clinic for 3 business days. This was problematic because I was at the beginning of my cycle and needed to start medications by cycle day 3.

He was always in a rush, we tried 8 clomid cycles, each time failed we’d up the dose. Did a total of 8 timed cycles then moved on to 3 IUI’s. Wasn’t until then Dr.Wincek realized my husband had very low sperm count. The clomid cycles wouldn’t have worked for any of our treatments. Recommended a IVF with ICSI. Money down the drain!... Get your spouses sperm checked, Dr. Wincek should had advised us of this. Too many years wasted and money gone.
[Scott & White] Was in a hospital, so definitely not the spa like atmosphere. Was just like a hospital check up.... Surgeries are performed in surgery center.... Our trigger time was given wrong, I ovulated before my second IUI. I knew I did, I felt it. Dr.Wincek said it’s impossible, but after insisting on testing. I was right and so had in fact ovulated resulting in cancellation of IUI.... Get your spouses sperm checked, Dr. Wincek should had advised us of this.
