Texas Center for Reproductive Health

We struggled with infertility for 2.5 years before being referred to Dr Marynick by several friends. The first time we met with him he spent over 3 hours with us! He went thru every single page of my chart from the previous fertility clinic (over 100 pages!) and had highlighted items he wanted to discuss with us. We had been pregnant 6 times and lost all of them around 6-8 weeks. Dr Marynick was very thorough and thoughtful and we felt he really wanted to get to the bottom of why we could not stay pregnant rather than continue getting me pregnant only to miscarry. We did some additional, non-traditional testing and Dr Marynick really felt that I had some autoimmune issues that would require some out-of-the-box treatments. He would always explain everything to us in great detail, even though some of it was over our heads. He would listen to our questions. He would perform all of his own sonograms, personally. Some would say his theories are silly and overkill but at the end of the day, we delivered a healthy baby girl at the end of August by following his protocall. We truly believe a traditional reproductive endocrinologist would not have dug deep enough to discover the "why" behind my miscarriages...but Dr Marynick was willing to and for that we are eternally grateful.

He's compassionate and truly cares about seeking a resolution even if it's in a non-traditional way. He thinks outside the box and cares more about the "why".

Dr Marynick encouraged us to do a "recurrent pregnancy loss panel" to thoroughly test for issues relating to why I could not seem to stay pregnant. He found some autoimmune issues and his protocol focused on replicating a treatment plan from a colleague of his that had great success based on women with similar autoimmune issues as mine. Once I received a positive pregnancy test (resulting from an IUI), I immediately did an iVig treatment and intralipids. Then, I did 4 more of the same treatments once per month to sustain my pregnancy. i also took a baby aspirin, progesterone, estrogen and 2 heparin shots daily. We welcomed a healthy baby girl 9 months later.

We spent thousands. I cannot recall specifics.

We decided against IVF because I could get pregnant easily with IUI; I could not STAY pregnant so we focused on that part for my treatment.

Dr. Marynick is one of the most learned people I have ever known. He is also compassionate, passionate about bringing babies into the world, and emotionally invested in every patient. He loves to tell stories and often seems to go off on tangents, but when it comes to discussing and planning treatment, in my opinion, no one else is more qualified. He will give it to you straight and never inflates potential outcomes or speculates on something he is not certain of. He will treat you fairly, individually, and with the utmost respect.

Number one: be prepared for some wacky conversations, but know that he will do everything he can to take care of you and help you have a baby if at all possible.

I remember being on Lupron and that my stimulation cycle lasted 40 days. It's been five years since my retrieval so I don't recall other specifics.

Lots of money! But reasonable for what we had done. They do not accept insurance.

Dr. Marynick is quite conservative. He will not transfer more than two embryos at a time. We transferred two in our first two transfers and then a single embryo for our last transfer.

Dr. Marynick is a wonderful doctor and excels in unusual or unexplained fertility issues. He can sometimes get off track with stories (albeit really wonderful stories!) and it can sometimes feel like most of the time is being spent on matters that do not pertain to your fertility. This can be a bit frustrating when you've taken time off work and need things to move appropriately. Our process was unfortunately unsuccessful. I would recommend Dr. Marynick to anyone that has unexplained issues or several miscarriages.

Dr. Marynick's process and demeanor is somewhat unusual. Trust how you feel when you are there to determine if his office is the right fit.

$17,000.00-$18,000.00

Dr. Marynick thoroughly explained and we understood his approach regarding embryo transfers.

This doctor is amazing in sympathizing with patients! His bedside manner is top notch! He is sort of "old school" and does not use laser technology for working with embryos. The doctor's sense of humor helped to relax the tension at different times.

Ask all the questions, and if you don't understand, ask again.

I went through IVF with intralipid and IVIG infusion. Embryo transfer was on Day 5.

The costs were a little higher than average in our city.

Juan was very thorough and kind. He explained everything in detail and took time to answer every question. He communicated everything clearly to us. He took our email and phone numbers and reached out after hours to chat with us.

You are in good hands!

We opted not to follow the protocol he suggested

We paid out of pocket. I believe it was $150 a visit
