Dan Griffin

Dr.Griffin is a nice strong doctor who cares tremendously about his patients. He answers every question & takes time to fully explain everything. He is a fantastic doctor & he shows compassion for his job. you can tell he takes great pride in helping others create a family.

Maybe offer payment plans or accept medical card? Infertility is rough on us and our wallets. Unfortunately. But its true, its rough.

As of right now I'm currently waiting for my day 1 cycle to begin before I'm told when to start taking clomid.

My husband and I have almost begun the treatment for a mini IVF, I mentioned it to Dr.Griffin & he said I'm an Excellent candidate for the mini IVF because we know why I wasn't conceiving naturally (my fallopian tubes were highly damaged & blocked) since then they both have been removed & I feel great about doing the mini IVF qith Dr.Griffin & his staff. The cost is $6500 & we've had to pay around $500for the medicine I need. Altogether i think this is the year i become a momma!

Doctor Griffin has recommended that we only transfer one embryo on account of my previous cesarean & my age, I'm fine with that.

Dr Griffin when we first met him almost 3 years ago was very confident we would have a child quickly. My wife being 25 at the time thought maybe a couple of IUI’s and we would be done. 6 IUI’s, 2 IVF and 1 RIVF later we are still searching to find something. My wife has went through blood test, tube testing etc. even when we feel like there is no hope at all and that maybe we should see someone else we go see Dr Griffin and he makes us feel better. Even during these extremely tough times. He has never been pushy to keep going but we so badly want a child we keep going. Even with no baby years after. I would still recommend him. Because I think he will give us a miracle.

For IUI’s he will not do them. It will always be a nurse. When that’s the first time it’s scary and nerve racking so not having him and different nurses every time it’s hard to feel a connection. Like you would with IVF/RIVF

My wife had 6 failed IUI’s 2 failed IVF cycles. Dr Griffin recommend using my eggs. Told us to think about it and let him know. We decided to use my eggs. I was on clomid for 5 days and only had 3 eggs. Only one was mature enough to make an embryo. Waited a couple more days for the eggs to mature. Took a trigger shot went in a day later and we did an ultra sound to make sure I hadn’t ovulated. I hadn’t so we did a retrieval that day. He came in told me what to expect etc. everything went great he came back in after told me how many eggs retrieved and to check my portal to see if it worked. Saw that 2 of my 5 eggs fertilized and matured. My wife went in 3 days later for a fresh transfer I had a 5A and a 3A egg development put them both in my wife. Neither worked. Here we are.

The cost for IVF was 16,000 we did two mini IVF cycles those where around $9,000? I think. IUI ‘s where around $1200 6 of those so your looking at over $7000 we are about $40,000 in debt.

Since I only had two he didn’t want to freeze any. So we put both back in my wife for a Fresh transfer.

My husband and I had been trying to conceive for a year and a half when we finally made the switch from my regular OB to a RE. As everyone going through this process knows, it can be stressful, frustrating and even debilitating at times. He definitely has a calming and comforting presence about him. I can think of at least 2 times I have been upset and worked up and after hearing his input I was instantly calmer and hopeful again. He seems to really have an understanding and a lot of knowledge about fertility. We put our hopes and dreams in his hands and he has exceeded our expectations. Although we haven't had our success story yet I am confident Dr. Griffin will pull us through this journey with a positive outcome.

Try to stay calm and patient. It's a process.

I was prescribed Clomid for cycle days 3-7. I was doing a monitored IUI treatment meaning they do bloodwork and ultrasounds to track the follicle as it grows. After my follicle had matured I was instructed to do a trigger shot and come 36 hours after for my IUI procedure.

Insurance did cover our initial meeting which would have been about $275. Insurance however did not cover any treatments. For our monitored IUI treatment it was $1400 not including medications.

Dr Griffin is very kind and thorough. He never made me feel as though anything bad that happened was my fault. There was a lot of compassion and many staff members had been through infertility treatments or dealt with miscarriages so they all truly understood what you were going through.

Make sure to make a list of questions, be patient while waiting on dr Griffin. He likes to take time with his patients.

I hade PCOS but excellent egg supply so dr Griffin thought for sure I would do well in treatment and I did. My hubby had male factor issues that made our situation more complex. Generally my treatment plan included injections before egg retrieval’s, then appts for bloodwork and ultrasounds every other day or so leading up to the day of retrieval. Both retrieval’s I did well and healed quickly. Also both retrieval’s I followed up with a fresh transfer with a 5 day embryo. The first attempt failed. Second attempt I got pregnant but baby stopped growing at 6 weeks. I had 2 embryos frozen left so went in for my 3rd transfer of both which ended in a chemical pregnancy. The only explanation dr Griffin could come up with was that there had to be a genetic or chromosomal issue.

Fortunately my insurance covered a good amount of the cost so out of pocket my cost was about $8000 for all 3 rounds

He’s a great doctor and explores all options. He also takes the patients requests into consideration. He continuously learns about new theories and research to help his patients. He has never told me no, or coerced me into a procedure. He always explains all options and gives his best opinion, along with consulting other doctors for their opinions.

To ask a lot of questions. Dr. griffin is very professional and uses medically correct terms. I often had to ask more questions regarding these terms and what all they entailed.

I had a different protocol for almost every cycle. If something did not work, he was always willing to change the protocol. Upped my dosage of Clomid each time for IUI’s, then switched to Femara, then moved onto mini IVF, injectables with traditional IVF, and lastly mini RIVF with my wife using Clomid.

Monitoring was great, they did your bloodwork one right after another. Ultrasounds were the same, the nurse starts cleaning while you get dressed so they’re immediately ready for the next patient. Rarely had to wait more than 5-10 mins

In total around 30,000

We have only experienced 1 cycle where we had more than one embryo to transfer. So I do not have much experience on this.

Dr Griffin is very kind and compassionate. When something doesn’t go as planned he explains what may have happened and shows that he cares. Willing to answer and explain anything you bring up or that you do not understand. Infertility is such an emotional roller coaster and we never felt rushed out or judged for having emotions through each step. We would recommend him 100%. We do not yet have our miracle but we will definitely be doing another round of IVF in the future with Dr Griffin! There really is nothing negative to say.

Do not be embarrassed to ask something. There are plenty of silly questions or ideas we asked about that we found online and he never made us feel as they were invalid. Also don’t be embarrassed that you may need help to conceive you are not alone and it is extremely common. So thankful these advancements in medicine are available.

We did a freeze all cycle on drums for 7 days, then did a trigger shot. First frozen transfer we just used estrogen and progesterone supplementation and the embryo failed to implant. For second transfer we were given the option to do an endometrial receptivity array or try a different protocol. We decided on the second and still did progesterone and estrogen supplementation but also added in clomid to ovulate before transfer, again the embryo failed to implant. There were several reasons this may have happened but we have plans for how to approach the next cycle.

All together with medications it came to about 32,000. This was for 1 egg retrieval, all labs and ultrasounds, 2 transfers, all consultations, additional testing, hysterocopy, saline sonohysterogram, semen analysis, PGS testing. They also have a discount program if you do not have fertility coverage and need more than one egg retrieval as we do.

He explained the risks and left the decision up to us, there was no strong one way or the other.

Dr Griffin is one of the most caring and compassionate doctors I have ever met. He was extremely honest about my diagnosis of infertility and about his treatment plan for me. Anytime I had questions he was the first one to answer them. He wants the best outcomes for his patients so he is very particular about lab values and making sure that everything is perfect before proceeding with a procedure or treatment. He genuinely cares about each of his patients.

Don’t hesitate to call and make an appointment with him. You won’t be disappointed.

Ivf cycle including monitoring $15,000 Frozen embryo transfer(including monitoring) $3500 Embryo storage $500/year

Dr Griffin discussed all of the options with my husband and me about the risks and benefits to transferring one embryo and to transferring more than one. He left the decision up to us as to how many embryos we decided to transfer.

Dr Griffin goes over the plan of care thoroughly with my husband and I each visit and takes time to answer our questions. It seems we have had many unexpected setbacks but he offers us solutions and alternative plans when things don’t go as expected. We still have hope that he will help us conceive a child. He is personable and I feel comfortable around him.

Don’t be scared to advocate for yourself and speak up for what you want clarification on.

My body would not respond to high doses of injectable fertility meds, and dr griffin consulted the BIVF team to determine that I needed to be on a steroid in conjunction with the injectable and oral meds. This is how we have accomplished 2 retrieval’s so far.

Insurance does not cover anything. Have have spent almost 50,000 in the past 12 months.

I am not doing this for multiples because there are so many risks, and I am glad that Dr Griffin does not encourage transferring multiple embryos at a time.

Dr Griffin is very compassionate about his job and his patients. He will listen to your questions and answer them thoroughly. He will take that extra time for your questions and concerns. He explains procedures and your plan in a way that it is understandable and not left asking questions.

Ask questions and lots of them he will answer them.

My first cycle I used clomid for mini ivf. I did not respond well and I ovulated early before retrieval and they found out during retrieval. I was unfortunately unsuccessful that cycle but afterwards went and got a new game plan. This cycle I am doing injectables.

Mini ivf was 5600 plus cost of meds. Regular ivf was 8800, icsi is 1100, embryo freezing is 1100. Semen analysis was 80 and saline ultrasound was 250.

With my age I am not old but not young. I expressed I wanted to implant 2 embryos and if we have 2 embryos we will implant.

I was expecting to see Dr. Griffin just for consultations about treatment plans and what we were doing next but when he was the one who completed my ultrasound to confirm a missed miscarriage, I really felt like he was going the extra mile to make sure we knew exactly what was going on and to confirm the miscarriage.

To not hesitate to go to his office. Even though our pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, the treatments at the office still worked.

We did 3 IUIs with clomid and monitoring at home with ovulation kits. Our third treatment resulted in a pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage. We will be going back soon to talk about next steps.

Our IUIs costed $225 a treatment (with a military discount)

The experience at Dr. Griffin’s office has been pretty good. I felt that there was a good plan put in place in order for us to conceive. Once that happened and we went in for ultrasounds I felt that he wasn’t as up front as he could’ve been. At our first ultrasound there was no mention of a possible miscarriage when he had suspected it. I would’ve like to have been warned that it was a high possibility rather than being totally blindsided by it. After talking to him about it in a later appointment he explained everything and was very kind about it all. Overall I think he is great at his job and truly cares for his patients.

Ask him to be up front with you if that’s what you want.

My issue was PCOS due to not having regular periods. Therefore I was not ovulating on my own. He did bloodwork and then started me on 5mg of Femara and after reviewing bloodwork the medication was making me ovulate. He also did thyroid bloodwork and put me on letrozole starting at 25mcg with bloodwork a few months later, saw my number wasn’t low enough so he upped the dose again to 50mcg, did bloodwork again and ended up changing it to 100mcg and that got my number down to around 1.5. After a few months of being on Femara and we still weren’t pregnant he suggested doing fertility medication with unmonitored IUI. I took ovulation tests at home and would call their office with a positive test. We got pregnant on the first round of IUI but it unfortunately ended in miscarriage 5 weeks later. We did another unmonitored IUI with Femara but did not get pregnant. Going forward we will do one more unmonitored IUI with a higher dose of Femara and if that doesn’t work then we will go to monitored IUIs with trigger shots.

Our Femara is $10 each month. Thyroid medication (levothyroxine) is $10 a month and the IUI is $300 and has to be paid upfront along with any outstanding bill you have.

He was very thorough, knowledgeable, open to questions. Made you feel like the only patient in the clinic, never rushed. He discussed all risks and options. He was up to date on all treatments and research

Ask questions

Iui cycles with clomid - unmonitored - we chose this for mfi as it was inexpensive and last ditch effort prior to ivf (300$/cycle) nurses performed procedure. He did not think adding injections would greatly increase our chances and would be 3000/cycle for meds and monitoring For ivf cycle we were dx with mfi only. All female tests were normal- started with ocp and antagonist protocol. Hyperstimmed and doses were decreased at each visit. On follistim, menopur, centrotide. at last monitoring appt ultrasound showed greater than 40 follicles and high estrogen. Triggered with lupron to avoid ohss. At retrieval unfortunately had started ovulating (free fluid in pelvis and significantly less eggs visualized) still ended with 15 eggs, 10 mature, 8 fertilized with icsi. 5 made it to day 5/6, 4 good quality and the other discarded. Implanted 5aa embryo fresh transfer resulting in live Singleton

10,500 for ivf with icsi - all monitoring retrieval, transfer, labs Meds were 3000 Iui with clomid and no monitoring 300$ With monitoring 1800

He very strongly encouraged eSet given high quality day 5 blast and my age. Did not offer multiple. Not sure if he would have agreed to transfer of 2 if we had pushed

Dr. Griffin is a very hands on doctor. Even when out of town, he wanted to be the one contacted about my treatment plan. He showed sadness over the loss of our twins. He also showed great concern over the last transfer we had and making sure my health was closely monitored. He even accomodated my wish for an extra ultrasound before leaving his care to go to a high risk doctor. He was always very informative about things, even if it was unfortunate news. He was always friendly, and you could tell he genuinely cared about his patients.

I don't think you'll find a better doctor to put in charge of your fertility journey! Please, if you're debating his clinic or another choose him. You won't regret it!

I didn't have regular cycles, so Dr. Griffin prescribed medicine to kick start one. After he thought my body was ready it was time for fertility injections to make my eggs mature. (For our first cycle we were trying timed intercourse). He was very cautious, and increased my dosage of fertility meds very slowly to prevent overstimulation. Timed intercourse didn't work, so 23 jumped to IVF next. Same procedure of fertility meds to stimulate my eggs to mature. Followed by egg retrieval. He told me I was one of his highest egg count retrievals. I ended up with kissing ovaries, which meant a fresh transfer was impossible. I cried, and he highed me and reassured me all would be well and we could proceed with a frozen transfer once things returned to normal. He monitored me to make sure the swelling went down and that all was okay once my ovaries were back to normal. Before the next transfer was scheduled, he had me come in for a trial transfer to make sure there would be no complications for the actual transfer. This particular transfer resulted in both embryos taking! We were blessed with 2 sweet boys that we lost at 22 weeks due to severe preeclampsia. Dr. Griffin was very sympathetic to our loss. He was okay with doing another single embryo transfer once we were cleared by our high risk doctor. Our next transfer didn't take. Again, he showed sympathy. Next transfer took, but resulted in a chemical pregnancy. Again, he showed sympathy for us. Our last embryo had appeared to split before freezing. Dr. Griffin warned it could be twins, but said he was willing to do the transfer. This transfer was successful! I'll never forget when Dr. Griffin breathed a sigh of relief at my first ultrasound that showed a single baby. He also shared in our joy. I saw him for one or two more ultrasounds after that, one of which was my request because I was paranoid after losing the twins. He very graciously said it was no problem and was happy to oblige. Dr. Griffin was the doctor we needed for our journey. I honestly can't imagine having had a better doctor through the ups and downs. Should we ever decide to try again, he will be who we see!

I believe we paid around $10,000 for the egg retrieval, fertilization and transfer. They did offer a discount plan if you wanted to do 3 consecutive egg retrievals. Medicine was expensive which brought our total more around $15,000 for everything. The good thing is they refer you to a pharmacy up north that offers a discount. The discount was pretty substantial from other quotes we got.

Dr. Griffin does not transfer more than 2 embryos at a time. He doesn't want to risk anyones health by transferring too many embryos and them all taking. Which we understoof and were fine with! After suffering from severe preeclampsia he only wanted to transfer one embryo at a time for us. Again, we understood and were fine with that! He really does keep the mothers health concerns a priority in addition to the babies.

Strengths: He is extremely knowledgeable and positive. He has had great success. When a procedure is suggested or a next course is planned he gives you all the details. He is great at communicating things and answering all questions, he has a wonderful bedside manner and always wants you to feel comfortable. He doesn't sugarcoat information, but he is not rude about things either. He looks at all aspects of a case. When a failed cycle occurs he always meets with you and insists on making changes to either help improve your odds or just to try something different since he doesn't like to use the same things and possibly get the same results. Weaknesses: He doesn't give you all the details when things do not go according to plan. You have to be your own advocate and have done some research before hand. I had a cancelled IVF cycle because I had ovulated prematurely. In the appointment prior to starting the cycle I specifically asked about birth control so that we could be on a good schedule for both of us. He didn't listen, said I didn't need it since I had irregular cycles anyway, and we did a random start date. This mistake ended up costing me over $1,000 in having to replace meds I had already used, when the next cycle we did use birth control.

Be your own advocate and do your research before hand. Make sure you know the details and take notes.

IUIs: We did 3 failed IUIs, mostly due to low sperm count on my husband's side, with Femara. My reaction varied from 1-3 follicles each time. We triggered with HCG all three times. However, once we used Ovidrel and that saved me some money, but had the same outcome. IVF: We used an antagonist protocol. I was on 225IU of Gonal-F, 75 of Menopur, and then .25 Cetrotide when the time came. I triggered with Ovidrel. Dr. Griffin said this was his middle of the road protocol since I had responded well with Femara. I ended up with 11 eggs, 9 of which were mature. All 9 were fertilized with ICSI, we transferred 2, a grade 5BB and 3AB, neither implanted. Of the rest left 5 arrested, and 2 were discarded due to low grades, 5CC. I got an e-mail about them being discarded after it had already happened and had to call the embryologist myself to figure out what happened. I was not happy about this, although I knew they could do something like this, I was originally informed it was if they had grades of D's not C's. During my last appointment he mentioned it seemed to be more of a MFI issue, however he would change my protocol the next round and use a Lupron flare protocol. Once I got a second opinion I was informed that all the embryos weren't of the best quality but this was never mentioned to me, even during my follow up appointment.

IUI: Monitored cycle cost $1300. Non-monitored cost $300. Injectable cycle was around $1750, all costs don't include medication. IVF: Base cost $8500, ICSI is $1000, Freezing embryos is $1000. They do offer plans where you can pay $20,000 for 2 cycles including FET and ICSI. Or a discount program $1000 off every Fresh IVF cycle after the first. FET: $6000 Ultrasound: about $300

Dr. Griffin would transfer 1 or 2 embryos and he let you decide which you wanted to do. He explained all the risks for multiples and would not transfer more than 2.

Dr. Griffin is a wonderful doctor! He has been there every step of the way. He is always trying to have a positive outlook, no matter the situation. He is very thorough in his testing. Also he has great bedside manners. Anytime I was nervous about a situation or procedure, he was always right there to reassure me!

Trust Dr. Griffin and trust the process! He is an all-around great doctor!

After my first appointment with Dr. Griffin he started testing with both my husband and I. He had my husband give a semen analysis, which came back great. He then performed an ultrasound and did blood work. He then concluded that I had pcos with an ovulated cycles. He prescribed me Provera to start my period and then had me take letrazole on cd 3-7. He was fairly confident that we would conceive within 6 months of this treatment. It has been almost 6 months and we are currently waiting to see if we conceived this cycle

My insurance did not cover anything fertility related, so Dr. Griffin and his team did everything they could to help us out.

He was very hands on with the treatment processes. He did the transfers and h egg retrieval. He was also there for our first ultrasound. He showed a lot of empathy for us, and was very transparent and honest with what he felt was the best decision for us to help grow our family.

Keep doing what you’re doing. His hand still on action approach really makes you feel like a human, and not just another patient.

He wanted to cover all basis on testing. Had me undergo testing, as well as my husband. He had me have an HSG test, and extensive blood work, and my husband also underwent blood work to ensure no issues on his end. From there, he said at the point where we were, our best option was IVF, due to over a year of no pregnancy, and 2 failed IUI cycles.

I had almost no cost due to insurance coverage, we strategically planned my IVF cycle to line up with our HRA insurance.

He said he felt comfortable on doing either 1 or 2 embryos, and no more than that. He was very confident that transferring one embryo would result in a viable pregnancy, but said he would transfer 2 if we chose to do that, but also warned that he was confident in a multiple pregnancy if we went that route after all testing was completed.

I was very nervous to meet with Dr. Griffin and I am not even sure entirely why ,because I had met with a fertility clinic prior to that, Fertility and Endocrine Associates. I had an idea of what to expect already but my nerves might've been due to the fact that my previous attempts at Fertility and Endocrine Associates had failed and I was worried that this would fail too. When going through difficulties with fertility it can sometimes be hard to stay optimistic. Together we reviewed my medical history and the treatment plan I followed at Fertility and Endocrine Associates. He developed the next steps for me to continue my treatment under his care and I felt confident in knowing that he had my best interest. I scheduled another appointment with him for further testing at his Newburgh location. I felt confident enough and so comfortable with him that I made the couple hour drive out to his practice for testing. I was excited to see his facility and for my journey to continue. He made me feel optimistic again.

Even if you are not local to his practice the care and expertise that is offered is worth the travel. I was blown away by the facility and by Dr. Griffin and his staff. When I was with them I felt like I was the only patient in their care and that I had their undivided attention. I would recommend to a prospective patient to ask questions and to ask them again. I thought that things had been explained to me in simple terms before but when I say that Dr.Griffin drew me a picture I mean he drew me a picture. I had some confusion about certain things and Dr.Griffin seriously took out a piece of paper and pen and drew me a picture to help illustrate what was going on with me. I never had a doctor do that before and it helped me to grasp what we were discussing and it made me feel like he truly cared about me.

I had previously went through 3 rounds of medication (Chlomid, Letrozole, Femara) with a previous Doctor so Dr.Griffin did not want to waste my time and money going back to treatments that did not work. Before moving on to more advanced treatments such as IUI or IVF Dr.Griffin performed some bloodwork, an ultrasound and then he also performed a HSG. He wanted to rule out any blockages in my tubes or any issues with my ovaries before moving onto expensive treatments such as IUI or IVF. He informed me that if there was any obstructions that IUI or IVF would be unsuccessful. The treatment was incredibly painful but I felt comfortable and safe with the staff who was conducting the procedure. The procedure was explained to me step my step so there was no surprises and then end result was no blockages. I was thrilled! Immediately after we met to talk about the next steps in my treatment.

My first cost incurred under Dr Griffin was a consultation held at my OBGYN's office. I also had some blood work and an ultrasound. Before insurance those services are roughly $500 but after insurance it was less than $100. The most costly procedure that I had under his care was an HSG test although I can't recall the cost exactly I believe it was around $500. I also do not recall if my insurance covered part of that exam since they cover some things and not others. My insurance covers testing up to the diagnosis of infertility and they cover nothing after that.

I did not get to this point in my treatment with Dr. Griffin but the process was explained to me. This would have been a bit more difficult for me because Dr.Griffin's practice was roughly 2 hours from my home. Although Dr.Griffin comes to my OBGYN's office on a monthly basis for consultations, he performs all procedures outside of routine bloodwork at his practice in Newburgh.

Dr. Griffin was very professional and easy to talk to about our questions and concerns. Fertility treatments take so much away from you but Dr. Griffin let you feel like you still had some dignity and could still Make you laugh even during the most sensitive of procedures.

He is full of information and even if you think your question is ridiculous, never be afraid to ask anything. He will make sure that you completely understand everything before you leave his office.

There were some mornings that I needed to be at work at 8am and I was able to be seen before normal clinic hours so I could still get to work on time. I was also able to get appointments set a little later in the morning so I could go during my lunch break.

We had 3 back to back IUIs without insurance and paid out of pocket prior to first ultrasound of the cycle. We were fortunate to get fertility insurance prior to IVF cycle and freeze all cycle (paid out of pocket for embryologist for genetic testing only) so prices were not bad. When we are ready for embryo transfer in the future, it will be $3400 each time (includes the transfer and all ultrasounds and bloodwork leading up to transfer).

Dr. Griffin is very adamant about not transferring more than 2. We transferred 2 embryos for our first transfer which resulted in 1 singleton. We unfortunately lost our son after birth at 25 weeks so we have agreed to transfer a single embryo in the future as twins, for us, could pose a serious risk.

Dr.Griffin was very good at explaining to me what needed to be done and how they were going to do them. Dr. Griffin never made me feel like I was being pressured jnto doing anything I was uncomfortable with. Anytime I had a question about anything Dr. Griffin was more than willing to listen and answer. I was a little worried about having a male doctor, but never once did I feel uncomfortable.

I would give the advice to stay calm and know that you're in good hands.

I don't remember specific measurements. The only thing that surprised me was having to watch a video to learn how to give myself the shots instead of being shown.

I don't remember specifics. It seems like the medicine was the most expensive part.

I like the fact that he would only transfer two embryos at the most. I felt like he was looking out for not only mine but the babies health as well.

He was very nice. Always ready to explain anything I needed. The only thing I found off putting was he diagnosed me with unexplained infertility but I went to a OBGYN and she said it looked like I had PCOS. I'm not sure how he missed that...

Don't be afraid to ask questions!

We did an HSG test to see if my tubes we block and see if my uterous was slanted or not but everything checked out. He did a sperm sample on my husband which showed his morphology was off but he instructed he take a multivitamin and that would take care of it. We would try the next month after they were in his system. The next month came and he put me on Clomid. And he had me come in during my fertile window and drew blood to see when I would ovulate since I don't really get accurate results from the at home tests. When it was time we did an IUI. I ended up getting pregnant but I lost it about a week later he said we could try again but it was too expensive for me to try again.

The testing was all covered by my insurance so I do not remember that completely. However I do believe with blood work testing to see when I would ovulate plus the IUI we paid about $2500

He was very personable and knowledgeable. He explained everything in detail and gave us several options as how to proceed. He treated us like we were the only patients in the office even though the waiting room was full! Great bedside manner... didn't sugar coat things but was also aware of how emotional the situation was and seemed like he truly wanted to help us

Dob't hesitate!

We are very early in our treatment with Dr Griffin but in just one visit he did an ultrasound to check my follicle count (good numbers), drew a tsh level (started on Synthroid), did genetic testing and did labs and a second semen analysis on my husband.

My insurance warned me in advance that some of the fertility treatments wouldn't be covered. So far, its cost around $700 just to have the initial tests on myself and my husband

We have only had a Skype consultation with Dr Griffin. He was very friendly and answered every question I had before asking. Very informative and made us feel comfortable and confident. He was not rushed at all. He took his time to listen to our story and knew a lot of my medical history before the consult.

Be ready to write things down because he is so informative.

We have yet to start treatments of any kind due to the fact that he wanted us to have a few more tests done. We plan to start IVF as soon as we are able.

We have only had certain tests done. Insurance covered all diagnostic.

He is always so attentive when you are with him. When I had my miscarriage he was with me during the ultrasound, and then sat with me afterwards and explained what was going on. He explains everything so well that I always leave feeling like that I know exactly what is going on.

To never be scared to ask questions! He has always been open and honest with any concerns that I have had.

We went through three iui cycles first with lots of bloodwork, and ultrasounds before the transfer. The ivf cycle was the same way. He monitored closely to make sure that my ovaries were not over stimulated, and that I was responding well to the medication.

We have had some insurance coverage. Other than that i feel that the cost has been affordable

His approach was that we only needed to transfer one embryo.

Dr. Griffin is very thorough and knowledgeable. He takes his time explaining all the options and we never feel rushed while we are there. He just makes us feel comfortable. I've seen other doctors, however Dr. Griffin was the only one to identify the problem and determine a plan of action for us. Which we are extremely grateful for. Having answers was a huge relief, and knowing that there are still options available for us means everything.

Be open and honest. That is key in communicating with any doctor. What is best is that with Dr. Griffin, he values your point of view and takes it into consideration. He makes you feel like we're a team striving for one goal.

I have diminished ovarian reserve, and will possibly be doing IVF if all goes well. Right now we are waiting on blood work results, and ultrasound. If those check out, we will proceed with IVF.

Dr. Griffin was extremely knowledgeable and great at explaining all procedures along with risks and potential outcomes. We felt very comfortable with his overall treatment and good bedside manner. He took time to answer all questions and give referrals when needed.

Relax and trust his judgement and doesn't hesitate to voice concerns or ask questions.

We did several different treatments including unmedicatied IUI since I ovulated on my own, medicated IUIs to boost chances by potentially releasing another egg, and a 'mini' IVF cycle which was recommended because we couldn't afford a traditional IVF cycle. With the mini IVF we did not do injections and only used Clomid and produced 2 eggs which both were fertilized and transferred.

Our insurance covered the IUIs but we have to pay 50% of medication with injections and those were anywhere from $300-600. We did a cycle of mini IVF which was $5000
