Dr. Borkowski goes out of her way to make herself available to her patients. She gives you her personal cell phone number so you are able to call or text with any questions you might have throughout the process. It was a relief knowing I could reach her if I ever had any concerns. She is also extremely warm and empathetic...she does not take a one size fits all approach...
The doctor and staff are wonderful [at North Shore Fertility]. Your care will be individualized/custom to fit your specific needs, and you will never be left in the dark. We also were able to jump right into treatments as Dr. Borkowski works as much as possible with your body's schedule...[nurse] is great at following up, you are never left waiting or wondering what the next steps are.
How was your experience with Anne Borkowski at North Shore Fertility?
Dr. Borkowski is a breath of fresh air. She listened to what our concerns were about treatment options and follows protocols that suit the patient. In other words, she does not take a one size fits all approach, which is the experience we had at our prior clinic. Dr. Borkowski makes herself available to patients via text, call, or email. It was comforting knowing she would be available no matter what when going through stressful treatments. We were very grateful to Dr. Borkowski as our first frozen embryo transfer was successful. We will be returning to North Shore Fertility when we are ready for our next child.

Describe the protocols Anne Borkowski used in your cycles at North Shore Fertility and their degree of success.
Our diagnosis is Male Factor Infertility.
Egg retrieval: for stimulation, we used Gonal-F, one injection daily. Cetrotide was introduced five days in. There were three monitoring appointments over the 8 days of stims. Original plan was to use an HCG trigger, but there was concern of OHSS so we switched gears and triggered with Lupron on day 9. The retrieval was two days later.
Frozen embryo transfer: oral estrogen 3x daily beginning at start of cycle. Progesterone suppositories 3x daily starting 5 days before transfer. Both estrogen and progesterone were continued until 10 weeks pregnant.

This was a huge bonus as other similar-sized clinics typically do not offer this flexibility.
