We’re fairly new into this whole process, and when we came to see Dr. Miller, we knew we wanted to try IUI first. ... He’s been honest and personable. ... He explained our previous test results, why we would be good candidates and how we proceed. ... When the third IUI didn’t work, he again went over all our results and still laid out a few options for us, but when we asked for his honest opinion on our next step, he said IVF. So, we’re just starting that now, but feel confident in the steps we need to take and Dr. Miller’s guidance along the way.

How was your experience with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Dr. Miller was a warm welcomed difference from the previous Dr we saw at another clinic. He’s been honest and personable. He told us stories about he and his wife’s difficulties with pregnancy and based on that, you could really tell he understands what we’re going through. He always takes time to explain our results and my husband actually feels comfortable around him too (which is saying a lot when you’re discussing fertility challenges). Overall I just really like and trust him!
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Stick with it! As Dr. Miller says, the only way this won’t work is if you give up.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Dr. Miller took time to break down all the factors surrounding our individual numbers and that helped make it much more digestible.
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
We’re fairly new into this whole process, and when we came to see Dr. Miller, we knew we wanted to try IUI first. He explained our previous test results, why we would be good candidates and how we proceed. He didn’t pressure us one way or another. When the third IUI didn’t work, he again went over all our results and still laid out a few options for us, but when we asked for his honest opinion on our next step, he said IVF. So, we’re just starting that now, but feel confident in the steps we need to take and Dr. Miller’s guidance along the way.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Nicole)
My nurse Nicole calls me on days of lab work quickly with the results. She’s always positive and practical. Plus, on more than one occasion, she’s taken time to answer all my questions and walk me through our next steps (even if we’ve covered them before)
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
We (yes, both my husband and I) LOVE RMA! We had a very unpleasant experience at another clinic not too far away and when we came here, it felt like the exact place we should be! Everyone is so welcoming and personable. Even though the visits can be numerous, I never feel like just a number. They have early morning hours for blood work and ultrasounds, so I can head there before work and not have it feel so disruptive to my day. Overall, it’s just a really wonderful place to be, especially if you’re going through the challenges of this whole process.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
Our insurance covered most of it (so far), but I know it was less than another clinic we went to because RMA is a “Center of Excellence” and this other place wasn’t.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
We have had a great experience with Dr. Miller after having a less than stellar experience with another physician. The quality of his care really stands out in comparison.

Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
Our first IVF cycle involved estrogen, Progesterone, Ovidrel, Gonal, and Menopur. We used ICSII as well. We had 2 embryos but neither took. Our second cycle involved adjusting meds based on previous failure, and we were able to successfully get pregnant, but lost the baby at 9 weeks. We are currently undergoing a course of IUI with Gonal and Ovidrel, plus Bromocriptine. He also is adjusting thyroid meds to aid in reproduction.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Leslie and Denise)
Leslie was quick to respond to my questions, via email or phone. She followed up with the doctor when needed. She was supportive when we suffered a loss.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
It is a clean, contemporary, organized clinic with up to date technology. The entire staff is welcoming, friendly, and well trained. Everyone knows the part they play and works well together. We never had a nurse perform a procedure (unlike at a previous clinic).
Our only slight disappointment is the male sample collection room. It could be updated and a bit more comfortable.
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of Michigan.
It was always scheduled in the morning on a first come, first served basis. However, there were multiple staff members working and it flowed quickly for the number of patients in the clinic.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
An IVF cycle with ICSII was approximately $13,000 with meds. Our IUI cycle was about $1100 plus meds. They provided options for payment assistance, as well as identifying the best pharmacy based on insurance. They also worked with our insurance regarding any co-pay or referral issues.
Describe Brad Miller's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of Michigan.
We did multiple (two) embryo transfers with each cycle. He left the decision up to us, but gave us all the information needed to make the choice.

Ask any questions you might have and do the genetic testing!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
I felt like a human because he and all the staff treated me like one. Even though I saw hundreds of patients filtering in and out of the clinic on a daily basis, I felt like I was the only one. Everyone made my experience very special.
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
I don’t remember the exact medications or dosages, but the route he chose for me was the best option. I became pregnant on the first try.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Nicole )
Nicole and all of the staff at RMA are compassionate, caring and extremely knowledgeable. My phone calls were always answered in a timely manner and my questions were always answered thoroughly.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and timely. I remember when I went for my first blood draw and ultrasound, I walked in and saw the waiting room completely packed with patients. I panicked because I had to get to work and thought I would be waiting forever. That was not the case at all. They were so fast, all the while being extremely friendly and personable. And it was like that every visit. I cried on my last visit because I felt like I was leaving a family. I had an incredible experience and can’t think of one weakness.
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of Michigan.
Monitoring is done in the morning and is very efficient. It made it easy for me to go have my monitoring done and still make it to work on time.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
I believe the total estimated cost was $20,000 plus an additional $2,000 for the genetic testing.
Describe Brad Miller's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of Michigan.
Dr. Miller recommended transferring one embryo since we did the genetic testing. We knew we had 2 normal embryos and 1 abnormal embryo. Because of this, Dr. Miller suggested the transfer of one at a time since the odds of getting pregnant increase once you know you have a normal embryo, and carrying multiples is risky and potentially dangerous to both mother and babies.

I didn't feel that we were important or that there was much effort into why we were unexplained, just told that IVF will give us more answers, but after our first failed IVF...there were no answers, just try again with the same regimen...He was kind and compassionate during our one on one consultations. He was was very patient and let you ask as many questions as you needed without feeling rushed.

He puts a lot of emphasis on young women being successful with fertility treatments, therefore if you are over 35 I would suggest someone else. He told me at 36 if I would have started trying 10 years ago we wouldn't be sitting here today...although I agreed with him, it was not helpful, at the time it just felt cruel.

Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
We started out with clomid for a few timed cycles, moved to 3 unsuccessful IUI cycles using letrozole and then moved onto 2 unsuccessful IVF cycles using Gonal, cetrotide and progesterone.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
I was assigned 3 nurses during my time at RMA and I only had issues with one, 99% of the staff was kind, compassionate, understanding and just awesome. They really do have a good team.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
Front desk staff & nurses are amazing. Although I was assigned to Dr. Miller, I often saw Dr. Wolf, she was very optimistic an understanding. The financial people could use a good course in being kind and compassionate.

How was your experience with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
When I first met Dr. Miller I was nervous as I was given the news I wouldn't ever be able to have a baby years prior. He was very comforting yet bluntly honest. He went over everything with me from the PCOS I have to the insulin I was put on for the diabetes. He told me every step we would take and not only answered all my questions but my mom's who was there at the consultation with me. He is very good at his job and can't wait to celebrate my positive with him.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
He listens to all you have to say, concerns, questions, problems and goes through everything with you one by one and make you feel like you are his only patient and doesn't make you feel rushed or a number.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
He's kind & compassionate doesn't hide the information from you, he's honest and knowledgeable.

I go in for blood work on March 16 to see of this works.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Denise and Terri )
They assign you 1 nurse while there, that way you only have 1 name to remember and 2 person that knows you and what you are going through or have been through. It's so very nice to know that you are talking to the same person every time and not someone you have to explain your story to each time you call.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.

Since we have unexplained infertility, and possible male factor infertility, he [Dr. Brad Miller] suggested starting with the IUI’s. He broke down the cycle for us-days of oral medications, days that I would need to be in the office for blood work and ultrasounds and when my husband needed to be there for his sample. The IUI’s were something we could try before diving in to the world that is IVF. After 3 failed IUI’s, we discussed IVF and we’re going to move forward with it but the expense held us back, for now.

He was very kind and professional. He is introverted and a little by the books but he truly wants to help create families and that’s exactly what we got!
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
I am a lesbian and didn’t know if I would have a hard time getting pregnant or if I had any infertility issues. Dr. Miller explained that he typically uses a combination of Clomid and Ovidrel to stimulate the follicles and create a better chance for pregnancy, however, these drugs were optional to us. He also gives the option to have your tubes and uterus checked via an x-ray to ensure there are no blockages. Again, this was an optional procedure. There was lots of blood work done and I don’t quite remember what all of it was for. At the beginning of your cycle, you call your nurse and start the process. You go in for an ultrasound and blood work and at that point they give you the dates you come back for the rest of the cycle. For an IUI, Dr. Miller does them on back to back days. About a week after insemination, you go back for blood work to check progesterone levels and you are prescribed a supplement if needed. About 2 weeks after the insemination, you go in for a blood pregnancy test. All the ultrasounds and blood work are done between 630a-730a.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Leslie)
Leslie was extremely nice and helpful throughout the process. Things were explained well and she always returned phone calls in a timely manner. She was a great resource to have!
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
The wait time to get in with a doctor was a little longer than we expected but well worth the wait! The staff is amazing and always professional and kind. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience while creating our family!
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
All tests and blood work were covered under insurance for me. The sperm and procedure were basically the only costs to us. The sperm was ordered through California Cryobank and prices varied. The IUI procedure was around $1,300 per cycle.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Ask questions so you understand your treatment protocol.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Dr. Miller met with me at nearly every appointment and made sure to ask how I was doing. He never seemed like he was in a rush and took the time to answer all of my questions.
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
I don't remember the protocol for my fresh cycle, but it was more aggressive than the protocol my former doctor used, and resulted in 44 eggs, 30-some of which were fertilized, one was transferred at day 3 resulting in a live birth. I think 14 5-day embryos were frozen. Dr. Miller decided to transfer only one embryo on day 3 to reduce the chance of OHSS. He also gave me other medications and instruction to try to prevent OHSS, which was successful.
I then had an elective single embryo FET, which resulted in a miscarriage. Since I also had a miscarriage and a failed transfer with my former doctor, I asked about PGS. Dr. Miller agreed that PGS was a good idea so we had our embryos tested. Almost all of them came back normally.
After that, I had another FET and transferred one PGS tested normal embryo. It resulted in a negative.
Dr. Miller then recommended I have an ERA biopsy done to make sure my lining was receptive at the time they had been transferring embryos. Since my two fresh transfers resulted in live births and all four of my FETs had resulted in miscarriage or failed, Dr. Miller thought the timing may have been off for transferring the embryo. The ERA test came back as pre-receptive. After changing my protocol in response, another FET was done resulting in a healthy pregnancy (so far!)
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
The nurses were in constant communication and were very compassionate and understanding.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
The clinic has early morning monitoring appointments so I did not have to miss very much work for appointments. The wait times were reasonable and I saw a doctor at nearly every appointment. The staff was friendly and helpful when it came to explaining financial obligations and treatment protocols.
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of Michigan.
Monitoring occurred between 6:30 and 7:30 in the morning and were first-come, first serve. The wait times were usually reasonable.

Dr. Miller is very kind down to earth man. At my office visits he was usually quick to get in and out. Which I was OK with. For what I was doing we had to be at the office VERY early in the morning, and there was usually many many patients there also. He needed to get us all in before the regular clinic opened. He was always very professional about it, and I never felt rushed. I knew he had other patients to tend to, and honestly I needed to get back home to get children up and ready for school.

Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
I was doing sperm donor IUI's. He wanted to start me off on Clomid my first cycle and do 2 insemination's. Knowing that I ovulate just fine on my own I disagreed with that and wanted no medication and only 1 insemination. Well that didn't work. So next round I listened to him. He explained that the clomid will help me ovulate possibly more eggs, but it would be unlikely that I would conceive multiples. Well he was right, the next cycle I had 2 eggs ready to go. I did the 2 insemination's like he wanted and I ended up pregnant.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan.
All the nursing staff, and medical assistants were very kind and helpful. They always made sure I had what I needed. I was ALWAYS calling my nurse. Poor thing. I swear she heard from me probably every day. Any time I called the office or my nurse, someone would always promptly call me back.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
The clinic is run very well. All the staff seem to have good knowledge of how everything is run. I never ran into any issues. I sat down with someone about the financial aspect of it, and understood what was expected of me financially. During your cycles you show up to the office at like 6am before they open for regular business hours, to do blood work and ultrasounds and IUI's, etc. I did not enjoy getting to the doctor at that hour, but I understand why they do it. They are usually pretty fast about getting you in and out. I don't think I was ever there more than 45 min even with my IUI's.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
I had to pay for the thawing of the sperm and the insemination's, which was about $1000/per cycle. My insurance covered the rest of my office visits, blood work, and ultrasounds.

How was your experience with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
I think Dr. Miller was great. He was honest and compassionate. Even though they see a lot of patients and he was very efficient, I still felt like he knew us. We felt that we knew the odds well and that he recommended the best treatment plan for us, not just what would make them the most money.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Come with questions because he will give honest answers
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Both Dr. Miller and Dr. Wolf both treated me and my husband with respect and were both very kind and honest. Dr. Miller answered all of our questions and explained things very well. He took our concerns and opinions into the treatment plan.
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
We started with IUI and did 3 cycles. I had already tried clomid through my OB at least 2 times and it didn't work, so we decided to skip it. We have unexplained infertility; although, my husbands morphology was low on one of the tests, I believe the second one was normal. We decided that 3 was enough because your chances of getting pregnant with 4 or more sessions goes down a lot. We then did IVF including testing, so it had to be a frozen cycle. He also did ICSI especially since the number of eggs I had was pretty small. Because we had the testing results, we knew that 2 of the 3 embryos that made it were good, we only decided to transfer 1 and that resulted in my beautiful baby boy. We have 1 good embryo frozen with him.
Describe your experience with your nurse at RMA of Michigan. (Assigned nurse: Lisa)
All of the nurses I saw were good, but Lisa was the primary and we loved her. I often had follow-up questions, not because of her, but just because of all of the info and she was so good about getting back to me. The other nursing staff was great. I had a couple of scares with bleeding after the transfer and the nurses that responses to my after hours line messages were very compassionate and helpful.
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
They were very efficient and I loved the doctors and nursing staff. Yes, you are cycles in and out so quickly, but that worked for me and even though that is the case, I didn't feel like a number. Even the ladies who drew my blood were great! The clinic itself was really nice and their equipment was good as well as the documentation they provided you about the procedure and your meds. My only complaint is about the office staff, in particular, the front desk people and receptionists. Often they were rude and short with me. Maybe that has changed by now...
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of Michigan.
If you got there first thing, it was fast. It was very efficient. If you got there later, you might be waiting for a little while.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
This is hard for me because insurance paid 80% (my new insurance does not), so it is hard for to estimate the exact costs as well as the genetic screening that we paid for.
Describe Brad Miller's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of Michigan.
Not really. We decided to just do one because of the chromosome testing. His preference is NOT to do multiples because of the risk.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
He is wonderful but if you suffer from endometriosis have laparoscopy prior to IVF treatments.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
I just really liked him as a person. During our first meeting both her and his staff were warm and kind. He spent a lot of time in his office going over things with me and answering all questions till I left confident I new what was going on and how things worked. He was personable and relateable. Fabulous bed side manor!
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
I was started on synthroid because my thyroid was not where they would like it for fertility. I was also started on estrogen. I was on Follistim, Menopur and after a couple days on them my follicals were not reacting as well as they should have and the doses were bumped up. I was giving Ovidrel as my trigger shot and it was suggested if we did another round that we add Lupron since my follicals did not respond as quickly as the should have.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
They were all very kind! I could call and someone would get back with me quickly if they were not available at the time of the call. They were great about calling me about my blood work and were very apologetic when they had to give me the dreaded call that it did not work. They were very compassionate!
Describe your experience with RMA of Michigan.
They are great and friendly I would recommend them to anyone. They treat you like they would treat their own loved ones that are struggling. They try to provide you with finance options and are so helpful. I would only recommend again letting endo patients know that their chances are much better after having endo removed prior to treatment.
Describe your experience with your monitoring appointments at RMA of Michigan.
They moved quickly and it was morning open appointment I think. I was never left to wait for long periods of time and was always able to make it in and out before work.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan.
$8000 for the basic IVF then there where the medication cost.
Describe Brad Miller's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at RMA of Michigan.

I did not have a great experience here. I always felt like Dr.Miller was pressuring my Husband and I to do IVF right off the bat. He spoke in statistics and I felt he was trying to use scare tactics to move along the process. When I did become pregnant via an IUI cycle, it ended in early miscarriage. When I went to see Dr. Miller for the first time after this, he told me "you were barely pregnant," not the nicest most caring thing to say to someone who has been trying to conceive for years and finally had a positive test! Horrible bedside manner, he didn't seem to care.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
Make sure you stay on top of your cycle and what is required, ask questions. Switch Doctors if you are unhappy!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Brad Miller at RMA of Michigan?
I did not feel that Dr. Miller cared for me as a person, he was very clinical and that did not help out an already stressful and emotional situation.
Describe the protocols Brad Miller used in your cycles at RMA of Michigan and their degree of success.
We did about 6 cycles of clomid with timed intercourse before moving on to gonal with IUI. I believe we did between 4-6 IUI cycles here before finding a new doctor.

Ask questions, be prepared and inform yourself before your initial meeting.

Was never explained or given a reasoning for some issues I had each month. Was taken back in groups to get blood work. Never was explained during my ultrasounds their findings.

Never explored in more depth or seem interested in my husbands seman analysis.
