Andrew Levi

I felt like Dr. Levi came up with a treatment plan that was uniquely catered to me... After our first two IUIs were not successful, he completely understood our wishes to proceed with IVF...Due to my age (32) and other factors, we decided to do an single embryo transfer for the first transfer...Because we wanted to do the PGS testing, we did a frozen transfer which was successful. I'm currently 13 weeks pregnant.

[Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine's] strength is how personalized of an experience you receive. I knew everyone's name and everyone knew who I was as well. Wait times for virtual visits were slightly longer than in person as the in person visits I was almost always immediately seen with little to no wait...The entire nursing staff at Dr. Levi's were incredible communicators and most importantly were kind and empathetic in their approach.

How was your experience with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Dr. Levi was the perfect combination for us because he came with facts and figures that helped us make informed decisions about our fertility plan. After our first two IUIs were not successful, he completely understood our wishes to proceed with IVF.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

I would trust the doctors and nurses and have patience and try to not compare your plan to others. They will find a treatment plan that works well for you specifically.

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

After my testing results led us to a diagnosis of unexplained infertility, we started the process by doing a medicated IUI cycle. We did two IUI cycles with the second we increased my dosage of chlomid. Both did not result in pregnancy. Following the second IUI, we decided to jump into IVF. I went on birth control pills for one cycle and then started stims to prepare for my egg retrieval. We retrieved 16 eggs, 12 were mature, 9 fertilized and 6 made it to day 5. Of the 6 embryos we had, 2 tested normally, 3 were abnormal and 1 was mosaic. Because we wanted to do the PGS testing, we did a frozen transfer which was successful. I'm currently 13 weeks pregnant.

Describe your experience with your nurse at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine. (Assigned nurse: Michelle was my IVF nurse)

The entire nursing staff at Dr. Levi's were incredible communicators and most importantly were kind and empathetic in their approach. I had so many questions throughout the IVF process and Michelle was so quick to respond and was very reliable. Shirley was also a huge part of my treatment plan.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr. Levi was the only fertility doctor I spoke to who took my whole health into consideration. He asked me about my eating habits, my medical history etc...[he] always took the time to talk through their thought process and answer any questions I had. The whole process is so stressful and emotional (regardless of who your doctor is), and they really try to make you feel at ease.

[Park Avenue Fertility & Repro Medicine] Strengths: Individualized care, compassion, clean office Weaknesses: Because it's a small team, you're really on their schedule which can be tough, but I wouldn't want to deter someone with that info. I really felt like this was the best clinic despite the fact that scheduling was sometimes annoying...They[nurses] always explained everything to me and made me feel really comfortable

How was your experience with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Dr. Levi is very knowledgeable, friendly, and warm. I went to him (driving from NY to CT over an hour each way!) after I had a not so great experience with another fertility doctor. Dr. Levi was the only fertility doctor I spoke to who took my whole health into consideration. He asked me about my eating habits, my medical history etc. Upon learning that I had childhood cancer and heart issues, he encouraged me to reach out to my doctors to let them know I was trying to get pregnant in case they had any reservations or specific things they wanted me to know before the process. I really appreciated that. He was also the ONLY doctor who encouraged me to start the search to find an OB I liked (I hadn't had one when I started going to Dr. Levi), knowing that I would need to start seeing them soon after I got pregnant. All of this really showed me that he cares about his patients and is focused on making fertility dreams come true in a safe and healthy way. My husband and I really felt like we were in the best care with Dr. Levi and his team.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr Levi truly made me feel like I wasn't alone in this journey. Unexplained infertility wasn't anything I was aware of before having to go through this treatment. He helped me to understand that I am not the only woman this has happened to and that every feeling and worry I had was completely normal and in fact expected!... Dr Levi is a genius! He knows the science, he studies your case and truly cares for you in making your family dreams come true. He is incredibly thorough but keeps you as the patient in mind that we really don't know the technical terms. He breaks things down and taught us more about reproductive science than most people would ever know.

Katherine [at nurse at Park Avenue] is just wonderful! She's kind, funny and so supportive. She knew exactly what to say when my IUI's were unsuccessful and she was sincerely happy to tell us our IVF worked. Katherine truly shows she loves her work and is a phenomenal asset to Dr Levi's team.... The office is great! The administrative staff is always happy to see you when you walk in the door and they greet you personally every time.

My husband and I tried for a year before we were tested for reproductive issues and were referred to Dr Levi and his team. We started with one month trying on our own while going through diagnostic studies to see if my fellopian tubes were open, uterus was healthy and pollup free. They also tested my husband if he was a contributing factor. It ended up being a joint factor where I started medications and went through three IUI's. After three unsuccessful IUI's our next option was IVF. We went through the stimulation shots, medications for egg retrieval and then finally a fresh embryo transfer 5 days out. We are now 8 weeks pregnant! The process was long, at times painful and disappointing. I am so glad we were referred to Dr Levi and his team we are now looking forward to having our dream come true.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr.Levi is absolutely fantastic! We met with him to begin the process and left feeling optimistic and in good hands. Throughout our time with Dr.Levi we always felt comfortable and that we were getting the best possible care. Questions were always handled well and explained completely. Even after we "graduated" from the office and had questions, he was helpful and reassuring. I recommend Dr. Levi completely and without hesitation.

Park Ave Fertility is absolutely fantastic! I cannot think of any weaknesses only strengths; everyone is kind and caring.... Katherine, along with the rest of the staff were wonderful. The first time I had to get blood taken she talked to me to help me with my nervousness. Everyone was kind and compassionate.... I don't completely remember all of the protocols in specifics. We did IUI three times, and it didn't work. Dr.Levi explained that it isn't anything that I am doing or not doing and that it is "out of my control". I needed to hear that and it gave me permission to try to let go of my want to control the situation.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr. Levi is personable, knowledgeable, and an effective communicator. He communicates his treatment plan very well and made me feel very comfortable as a patient. I was very satisfied with my experience as a patient and would highly recommend Dr. Levi to anyone in need of his services...He was dedicated to helping me and my husband start a family and was always optimistic of our chances even in the face of negative results when I was losing faith.

This clinic's [Park Ave - Trumball] strengths are the quality of the customer service, the ease of scheduling, the individualized treatment, the availability of Dr. Levi and his staff for questions or concerns, and the feeling that they really care about you and your outcome. The weakness of this clinic is that the wait time can run a little long sometimes...Pat is Dr. Levi's RN and she is excellent! She is extremely knowledgeable, upfront, and personable. Pat is equally available for a response to a question or a hug. She is a huge asset ...

I am so happy I was seen by Dr. Levi to treat infertility. He was dedicated to helping me and my husband start a family and was always optimistic of our chances even in the face of negative results when I was losing faith. But with the support and expertise of Dr. Levi and his staff, we were successful and I will forever be grateful to Park Avenue Fertility.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

I had 5 cycles of IVF. I started treatments when I was 40 years old and an IUI did not make sense for my case. I responded well to the particular combination of stimulation drugs in the first cycle but my progesterone level was high so I had to undergo a frozen embryo transfer in order to prepare my body for a potential pregnancy. Out of 3 frozen embryos, we implanted two and had a negative pregnancy test. The third embryo is still frozen at this time. For the second cycle, the protocol for the egg stimulation was modified to keep my progesterone level down. I believe there was the addition of Lupron. A fresh transfer was planned but no inseminated embryos developed well enough over 5 days so no transfer occurred. The protocol for the third stimulation phase was modified again and I had less eggs retrieved. One inseminated embryo developed after 5 days and it was transferred at that time (fresh) but, unfortunately, I had a chemical pregnancy which eventually ended. The fourth stimulation protocol was again adjusted and I had 2 embryos develop for a fresh transfer but a negative pregnancy test. Finally for the fifth cycle, the stimulation protocol was more similar to my first in order to produce more eggs. Two inseminated embryos developed for a frozen transfer and a positive singleton pregnancy resulted. I am currently 23 weeks along.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

He [Dr. Levi] was knowledgeable and informative and had good bedside manner. In our initial consult, he made me feel very reassured that he would do things differently than my prior doctors, which gave me optimism that I might have a better outcome. But in the end, my treatment was not very different, and the outcome was the same. But overall, my experience was very positive... So he really wasn't able to figure out what's wrong as he promised he would... but I don't know if that's his fault or if my issues are truly "unexplained."...He took the time to get to know me and was very personable and always talked me through his thinking about all decisions.

I believe the initial testing [at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine] (bloodwork, hysteroscopy, etc.) was around $1300 (self-pay package). The FET was just under $4000 (self-pay discounted price)...It is a very friendly, inviting clinic. The number of patients seen is small, so there is more individualized attention. I would almost always see the doctor himself, rather than a resident or nurse. Everyone in the practice knew me by name...Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Catherine was very responsive to email inquiries.

Ask lots of questions, especially if you feel that the treatment is not proceeding as he originally said it would.

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

He took the time to get to know me and was very personable and always talked me through his thinking about all decisions. After my treatment failed, he took the time to call me to discuss next steps (although this phone call did feel a bit like he was trying to "sell" me on continued treatments). His office staff was also very personable and friendly and never made me feel like a number. They always knew my name when I walked in the door.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

I saw him for a frozen embryo transfer of an existing embryo that was created at a different clinic. Because I had 4 PGS-tested embryos, and 3 of them had already failed to stick, this was my very last embryo. He assured me that he would figure out what was wrong with my uterus and find the reason why these embryos were not sticking. He performed a hysteroscopy, whereas in the past I'd only had SHGs. In the end, he told me (as previous doctors had as well) that my uterus looked perfect and he was very optimistic for success. When I asked why, then, he thought the other 3 had failed, his answer was basically, "Well, that was another clinic and I can't speak for them." In the end, the 4th embryo, under his care, also led to a chemical pregnancy. So he really wasn't able to figure out what's wrong as he promised he would... but I don't know if that's his fault or if my issues are truly "unexplained."

during my last ivf, his suggestion was to be on a no carb diet, so he can have more room to get to the eggs, since first IVF failed, to no fault of anyone's. I did the diet as prescribed, and this time around, it worked, he was able to manuever and get what he needed to get to make this a success. THANK YOU!!!!

From my initial consultation, I felt that Dr. Levi was very compassionate and had my best interest in mind, not just making money. He listened to my story and was very kind. He encouraged me to stay the course when I was getting frustrated and went out of his way to make the process as easy and painless as possible...I saw Dr. Levi at every visit and he took time to talk through everything with me...If you have questions, ask them...

Everyone I dealt with [at Park Ave - Trumball was] super professional and compassionate. They knew me by name and we're always responsive very quickly if I had questions or concerns. A couple of times, when calling with results or for scheduling they would get confused on what my plan of care was. But I know they were probably calling multiple people and I always knew the plan. Other than that, they were all wonderful...I don't have any complaints except that since it is a small practice, there was sometimes a longer than expected wait. But nothing outrageous. Also, because its small, you really will feel like a person, which is a huge strength. So much of this infertility stuff is dehumanizing, but they make you forget about all of that.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

I have no known fertility problems, but my husband makes no sperm so we use a donor. I had trouble at a previous doctor with cysts while on clomid. I told Dr. Levi this and he was encouraging when he told me we could just try monitoring and a trigger shot with iui, instead of jumping straight to clomid as i was also concerned about multiples. We did this for two cycles, then started back on clomid. I did three more cycles of clomid+trigger and iui and finally got pregnant on my 5th IUI. He was confident it would work eventually, and he was right!

I had 80% coverage for all testing and up to 4 IUIs. I think we paid approximately $1000-$1200 for the remaining 20%.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr.Levi is extremely sensitive to the fact that most people visiting him, wanted to be pregnant yesterday and understands the urgency that couples feel. He makes time to get to know his patients and form relationships with them. You always feel that he has your best interest in mind.... Dr Levi, himself, performed several diagnostic exams, to check for blockages in my Fallopian tubes, cervix and uterus. Once this was all clear, we began our first round of stimulated IUI, 5 days of clomid, and a trigger shot the night before insemination.

The whole team at Park Ave is great. Catherine was a great PA, and a great communicator. She always called same day with results and was also reachable by email. It is very easy to get a hold of Dr Levi or Catherine.... His office is truly one of a kind. The entire staff is welcoming, friendly, and always there for you. We will definitely return to Dr Levi when we are ready for our second child.

I grew to trust Dr. Levi. I trusted that he was making the best decisions for my treatment and that he had my best interests at heart. As stessful as tge whole process of IF is, I actually enjoyed interacting with him and planning next steps. I always felt at ease around him.... He is a solo practitioner so I always saw him or his nurse practitioner. He was empathetic. He seems to really understand the struggle emotionally of infertility.

The front desk ladies are always professional and understanding of schedule changes. The clinic [Park Ave Fertility] is clean and well maintained with up to date equipment and excellent laboratory. Which is essential for an IVF clinic!... I did the Lupron microdose protocol and angoist protocol. I used primarily lupron, gonal f and menopur....

Dr Levi is absolutely a caring and competent physician and skilled in his practice area.... Ask about pricing in advance. It is an expensive process and you want to be prepared. Also have the genetic testing done - it is not cheap but can help you avoid useless transfers that cost a lot of money to transfer an embryo with no chance at survival.

Dr Andrew Levi is amazing! He is the only doctor in the practice so it can be a wait to get appointments but that is because he is with you every step of the way. Always made me feel comfortable and made sure I understood what was happening during all the tests. Always open and honest about everything going on. Follow up calls from his office to see how I was.... We did 2 transfers with Dr Levi. The first in 2014 and we transferred 2 embryos and one took and we had a boy. The second time in 2016 we did 2 again and dr Levi did tell us we had a higher chance of twins since both embryos were high quality and we did have twins.

The clinic [Park Ave Fertility and Reproductive Med- Fairfield] is clean and modern. Waiting area is comfortable. Exam rooms are a good size and comfortable as well. I have no negatives to say about the clinic. The AC was always running strong and the water cooler was always full.... We did 2 transfers with Dr Levi.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr. Levi is extremely confident in producing positive pregnancy results despite the years of infertility. He is a calming presence in difficult situations. After receiving a negative result with our first FET, his confidence and support did not waver...We chose to only transfer one embryo at a time. That was our personal choice. Dr. Levi did agree with my young(er) age, that transferring one embryo was our best approach.

[The nurses at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine] were extremely knowledgeable and supportive. They provided their email addresses and encouraged me to email when/if I had questions. When I did email, they would respond promptly. I found all of the staff to be encouraging and personable. I enjoyed seeing them at each visit...Monitoring appointments were always in the morning. It was a well-oiled machine. I found that if I went a few minutes early, I would be taken prior to my appointment time--this was extremely beneficial as I am a high school teacher and needed to get to work as soon as possible.

How was your experience with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

I would have worked more with Ann--the administrative assistant that deals with insurance. We did not look into the costs of the visits and procedures/what our insurance covered, which led to some strain in our relationship. Utilizing Ann's expertise more, would have eased our personal financial situation.

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

I started my IVF journey at a large hospital; our first appointment was a consult with a resident and first day intern, and included a vaginal ultrasound--where the doctor later joined us. My husband and I both felt as if it was inappropriate for residents and interns to be our contacts in such an important journey, rather than the doctor. We had heard from numerous friends that Andrew Levi was a solo practitioner and had extremely good results--all of our friends that went to Dr. Levi became pregnant and had healthy, thriving babies. Dr. Levi and his team were amazing; he was extremely supportive in all of our wants, and his team were always there to address any needs I had. Everyone on his team knew my husband and I by name--we did not feel like just another client.

Describe your experience with your nurse at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine. (Assigned nurse: Catherine & Michelle)

I loved Dr. Levi's team. The ladies were extremely knowledgeable and supportive. They provided their email addresses and encouraged me to email when/if I had questions. When I did email, they would respond promptly. I found all of the staff to be encouraging and personable. I enjoyed seeing them at each visit. When Michelle ordered my medications, she found coupons to lower the costs--we did not ask her to (as we did not know this was possible) she just did it, knowing any savings was helpful.

Describe your experience with Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine.

To schedule the initial visit, you are given an appointment at least one to two months out--do not let that deter you! That is just the initial consult appointment. Once Dr. Levi and his team reviews your case, they automatically begin testing and you will have more appointments than you ever thought possible!

Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine.

Monitoring appointments were always in the morning. It was a well-oiled machine. I found that if I went a few minutes early, I would be taken prior to my appointment time--this was extremely beneficial as I am a high school teacher and needed to get to work as soon as possible.

Describe the costs associated with your care under Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine.

Treatment costs were based on what my insurance covered, which was 80% of fertility treatments. Once I had reached my premium deductible, everything was covered 100%. To freeze eggs, the initial cost was $1850.00 in cash/check/credit card prior to egg retrieval and $400.00 a few months later.

Review of

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Overall a very kind, compassionate and knowledgeable doctor [Dr. Andrew Levi]. In fact he’s probably the best doctor I’ve ever been to. My only complaint was that he put patients on birth control pills to synchronize IVFs to his clinics schedule since he works alone and I lost several weeks of treatment due to this. When your older time is limited so this was frustrating.... He always remembered me and my medical history and even called me personally just to check in after a few miscarriages to see how I was holding up.

Single doctor [at Park Ave- Trumball] so cycles are regulated to the clinics schedule which takes longer. Strength is Dr Levi’s kindness and compassion. I’ve yet to be treated by another doctor as well as I was treated byDr Levi.... Most was covered by insurance and when it wasn’t Dr Levi worked with on price & payments... Nursing staff changed frequently during the time I was in treatment.... I had a bad cycle using Ganirelix, nothing fertilized. Only time that ever happened.

Review of

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

We sought a second opinion with Dr Levi and he took all our information and previous tests into account. I had one IVF cycle with egg retrieval using oral and injectable medications, similar to my previous rounds at the other place with slight variances. There was frequent monitoring and blood draws, as usual and we retrieved 9 to 10 eggs...The slight variances the Dr Levi instituted for me clearly made a big difference. The transfer process was a lot more than I expected, with more oral and injectable medications, but everyone was very supportive.

Coming from another fertility practice to Dr Levi [at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine] was like night and day. Everyone in the office knows your name. They are always available to speak with you. They recognize variances in financial situations, and try to find ways to help you. Dr Levi and Catherine Levens APRN are clear that their goal is your goal - to expand your family...One of the biggest strengths of this clinic is that from the beginning you are aware there is a team of people to help you achieve your dream of expanding your family.

How was your experience with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Dr Levi is very decisive but clear on his treatment plan. He takes previous courses of treatment and previous treatment failures into consideration to create a personal care plan for you. He takes time to answer questions and never makes you feel bad for asking questions. He is willing to make changes if he feels the original plan is not working. He understands the physical and emotional toll fertility issues can create and is sensitive to that.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Ask for statistics and ask questions. He may not fully explain everything initially, but if you ask questions for further information, he knows the answers and you will leave your appointment feeling cared for and part of a team.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

We had two egg retrievals at another clinic with 10 to 12 eggs retrieved, 5 to 6 fertilized each time, and all of them arrested. I was told I should use donor eggs. We sought a second opinion with Dr Levi and he took all our information and previous tests into account. I had one IVF cycle with egg retrieval using oral and injectable medications, similar to my previous rounds at the other place with slight variances. There was frequent monitoring and blood draws, as usual and we retrieved 9 to 10 eggs. 6 fertilized, and three grew enough to be frozen for PGS testing. Two of the 3 were genetically sound. The slight variances the Dr Levi instituted for me clearly made a big difference. The transfer process was a lot more than I expected, with more oral and injectable medications, but everyone was very supportive. Our first transfer did not take, and we took a couple months off. The second transfer round went fantastic and I am expecting a baby boy in June 2020. I started with Dr Levi in Jan 2019 and if everything continues well as it should, will be holding my new baby in June 2020.

Describe your experience with your nurse at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine. (Assigned nurse: Michelle Falzarano)

Michelle was the nurse I dealt with most often because she was the medication nurse and teaching nurse. The staff includes a team of people that I cannot compliment enough, including phlebotomy, receptionist and financial counselor. Michelle was always available for questions and she has a naturally compassionate nature that makes it easy to share your concerns or fears with her. She reassures you with a confidence that is contagious. She is generous and kind, intelligent and friendly. It was a joy to have her as my nurse.

Describe your experience with Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine.

One of the biggest strengths of this clinic is that from the beginning you are aware there is a team of people to help you achieve your dream of expanding your family. Catherine Levens APRN was who I saw more than Dr Levi, although he is available if you need him. Catherine is very skilled at her job and has an amazing bedside manner. I always felt happy to see her at my appointments and she is extremely caring and compassionate. For my schedule, one of the challenges was I could have used some 730am appointments which they don't offer. However, they are very creative and flexible in meeting your schedule and you have the option to go to Quest for blood work in the morning and ultrasound in the afternoon if you need an early morning visit they don't have. They know you by name and welcome you when you come into the office. It s a small group which creates a family environment. You feel like a person and not a number.

Describe Andrew Levi's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine.

I am 40 years old with multiple miscarriages. Dr Levi recommended a single embryo transfer and I wanted a single embryo transfer because Dr Levi and I both felt that twins would add risk to an already risky situation.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

I saw Dr. Levi during most of my appointments especially leading up to my egg retrievals. He was always optimistic and kind. He really took the time to know me and my case and truly cared about our outcome. He was gentle when delivering not so great news about our diagnosis. At a time when you’re scared and second guess everything I knew we were in the right hands...Personalized care, Dr. Levi spent time getting to know my case and researched my case individually so we could achieve the best outcome.

I was able to trust Park Ave Fertility knowing they were doing everything in their power to help us achieve success...The clinic delivers personal care with great attitudes that help you stay optimistic during difficult times. They are understanding, very caring and organized...All the nurses were friendly and upbeat. They delivered instructions clearly and responded quickly to questions. I could tell they genuinely cared for our outcome.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

All three egg retrievals we did an antagonist protocol with double triggers and could only do FETs since I have PCOS. Had a the expected amount of attrition for my first cycle, a lot more for my second but my third egg retrieval was the best round. I had 1 canceled FET cycle due to thin lining, but went on to have a successful FET after.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

From The moment that we met Dr. Levi we felt comfortable going forward with the treatment. He was very open and honest with us regarding the process and what to expect. We felt like we were included in the plan every step of the way...He said that transferring 2 embryos does not increase your success rate that cycle only increases your chance of multiples which can further complicate a pregnancy

The [Park Avenue Fertility]Clinic is a small single doctor clinic where are you feel like you are treated like a person rather than a number. The doctors and nurses are very kind and willing to answer any and all questions. I liked that Dr. Levi was very open and honest and did not sugarcoat things for us. We Always felt like we were included in the plan and confident going forward..

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

Come with your questions and don’t feel bad for asking them. He was always willing to listen to my questions and concerns. Know that you won’t see Dr. Levi at every visit but the team members are extremely competent and able to carry out the treatment plan. They are not open and weekends so that is something to be aware of

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

It is a small clinic so everyone knows your name and what’s going on with your particular case. It was so nice to be greeted with a smile and your first name because other clinics we were at we were only a number and saw a different provider each time we went.

Describe the protocols Andrew Levi used in your cycles at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine and their degree of success.

We did 3 IUI cycles first due to an unexplained infertility diagnosis. He only recommends 3 because after 3 the chances of success drastically decrease. We then moved onto IVF with an egg retrieval. He doesn’t try to over stimulate your system so we retrieved 9 eggs 7 mature and ended with 3 perfect day 5 embryos. I thought this was a perfect result because I know some doctors are shooting for so many eggs and we did not want to have a ton of embryos that we would have to figure out what to do with once done trying.

One thing to note is that you don’t see Dr. Levi all the time- you see him for your initial consult and occasionally throughout your treatment plan. The clinic does not open on the weekends or evening hours but we never ran into any issues with that type of schedule.

Andrew Levi Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine

Dr. Levi and his team were patient, kind and super helpful...I recently graduated to my OB and although this was a very joyous day, it was also bittersweet because I had grown extremely close to the team members and Dr. Levi...When I first started, we did medicated "natural" rounds, where I took Clomid and then we timed intercourse. Then, we attempted IUI's the same way...Once we moved to IVF, I was placed on birth control and then prescribed Menapur, Gonal F, Ganirelix/Cetrotide and a HCG Trigger shot the night before retrieval

I loved the fact that I didn't feel like a number with [Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine]. They knew me, my husband, my history.. It was easy to have a conversation with them and didn't sugar coat anything...[the nursing staff] were super compassionate and knowledgeable. Caring and just all around great people...Everyone there got to know me. Asking questions about my personal life, not just about my medical history. We laughed, we cried together. They were always there for me!

How was your experience with Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

I have been a patient of Dr. Levi for many years. Unfortunately, my journey took longer than my husband and I had expected. Dr. Levi and his team were patient, kind and super helpful. They became almost like family! I recently graduated to my OB and although this was a very joyous day, it was also bittersweet because I had grown extremely close to the team members and Dr. Levi! We will be back when we're ready for baby #2, but until then.. I cannot praise this team enough and recommend them whenever I hear that there is another couple/family in need of his specialty!

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Andrew Levi at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine?

When I first started, we did medicated "natural" rounds, where I took Clomid and then we timed intercourse. Then, we attempted IUI's the same way, while using Clomid and we tried another medication I cannot remember. Once we moved to IVF, I was placed on birth control and then prescribed Menapur, Gonal F, Ganirelix/Cetrotide and a HCG Trigger shot the night before retrieval. Then I was placed on birth control again during the Frozen embryo cycle. I started injecting Lupron daily at 10mg then decreased to 5mgs and started 10 mgs of estrogen. Then 5 days prior to transfer I started a baby aspirin, Progesterone in Oil, Medrol and Doxycycoline. After transfer - I continued the PIO shots, estrogen and aspirin until I was 10 weeks pregnant.

Dr. Levi did not speak down to me or over my head, he insured I knew exactly what was happening and validated all of my concerns and questions...My husband and I both enjoyed the experience so much so every time we left the office we'd talk about how much we wish Dr. Levi could be our doctor for every aspect of our lives...I have such a clearer understanding of my own body and the challenges we faced with fertility. I couldn't recommend Dr. Levi and Park Avenue Fertility more highly.

All of the staff [at Park Avenue Fertility & Reproductive Medicine] was warm and welcoming. My husband and I both enjoyed the experience so much so every time we left the office we'd talk about how much we wish Dr. Levi could be our doctor for every aspect of our lives...I was prescribed a pill to take to help jumpstart Egg growth and then an injection to release the egg and initiate ovulation...Lisa at the front desk was incredibly helpful, every time I called with a question she helped direct me to the proper information. The nurses were fantastic, I've never had my blood drawn as much in my entire life than I did while I undergoing treatments, The nurses were quick and gentle. I would also like to make a special mention of Catherine (APRN). She was so incredibly sweet and gentle, and just like Dr. Levi was always making sure I knew what was going on, what next steps were, and if I was comfortable.
