Daniel Kort

Dr. Kort is incredible and we feel very grateful that we went through our IVF journey with him. Not only is he extremely intelligent and professional, he is the most attentive, kind, and compassionate doctor I know. We felt completely safe in his care and trust him 110%. Because of Dr. Kort and his amazing team, we are currently pregnant with our first child and are already looking forward to working with them again as we continue to expand our family.

Look no further than Dr. Kort. I couldn't imagine a better doctor.

Due to my specific case of fibroids as well as having blocked tubes, it was clear that IVF was a necessity. We decided to proceed with two separate egg retrievals, followed by PGS testing of embryos which were frozen and stored. After having necessary surgery, we finally scheduled our first frozen embryo transfer which resulted in a chemical pregnancy. We scheduled our second FET the following month and we are happy to report that we are expecting our first child next year.

My insurance covered the majority of the costs. I only had to co-pay for office visits, and paid out-of-pocket for PGS

Dr. Kort explained the risks of transferring multiple embryos and since we also had genetic testing done, we felt very confident that transferring a single embryo would give us the best chance of a successful and healthy pregnancy.

Dr. Kort was not only knowledgable and compassionate, but he showed exemplary humility in difficult situations and was not afraid to look deeper into an issue or seek an alternative opinion. He's a collaborative thinker, which is wonderful in this pursuit. He was a tireless advocate for our success.

Feel free to be yourself and express concerns. Dr. Kort is open to complicated feelings and discussions.

3 medicated IUI's with Clomid & Ovidrel trigger. 2 egg retrievals after Folistim, Menopur, & Cetrotide, HCG trigger regimen. Prep for transfer with Eustrace & Progesterone in oil. 1 transfer attempted, but embryo not inserted due to complexities with cervix shape. 2 practice transfers following failed attempt, as a way to better understand shape of cervix and prepare for successful transfer. After clear map of cervix and updated strategy for transfer, 1 successful embryo transfer, and ensuing pregnancy.

Very rarely had to wait. Overall a well-organized process.

Estimated 12K out of pocket, not including medications.

We definitely feel the single embryo transfer was the way to go.

Dr. Kort worked with our donor and with a prior facility storing our donor's sperm.

Dr.Kort has a very calm demeanor and is very reassuring. He never made me feel like a patient or that something was wrong with me. There were plenty of options that he explained and offered his opinion but was also never pushy. Everything was on my terms.

He is very thorough but I would always ask questions as things in your body can change on a daily basis.

Dr. Kort my husband and I discussed IUI as a potential option for us. I was reluctant to take any type of medication but he walked me thru what I would be taking and what it would do. He didn't push anything upon us which I really liked, he helped to guide us but left everything on our terms.

The only costs were copays for ultra sounds and the pharmacy needs.

Dr. Kort is an exceptional physician. He is knowledable, kind, caring and goes out of his way to provide excellent healthcare. I felt safe and well cared for. Would trust him with any sensitive matter. Couldnt recommend him enough and grateful I went through my treatment with him.

Youre in good hands. Dont stress.

Random timed induction of ovulation since I had an IUD in place. Standard protocol treatment given my age, and AMH.

Dr. Kort is a kind, caring, and brilliant doctor. I highly recommend him for anyone dealing with fertility issues. He took the time to answer my questions and explain thoroughly all the options so I could make the best decisions possible. He truly goes above and beyond.

If you are dealing with infertility, make an appointment with Dr. Kort. He will help you understand your options and formulate a treatment plan.

I pursued IVF with Dr. Kort as IVF had the highest success rates and I wanted to have a baby as quickly as possible.

very reasonable

Single Embryo Transfer with genetic testing was recommended as it results in the highest chance of a successful/ healthy pregnancy.

Very nice doctor. We knew our chances were low being an older couple, but this was glossed over a bit when we tried to get right into the details. We learnt about PgS testing from this doctor. Even after several meetings though it was hard to really see a clear course

Know your research before you go in

I only did a saline ultrasound and bloodwork with this doctor

$15,000 per cycle plus extras

We did not get this far, but they do natural cycles at this clinic

We had a great experience with Dr. Kort. He was very thoughtful in answering our questions and helping us understand what to expect during our treatment process. He was patient and kind throughout, as well.

I prefer not to disclose the specifics of my own treatment strategies and protocols.

Insurance covered the majority of our costs.

He's very kind and compassionate. He took the time to explain the entire treatment. He was easily accessible via email or phone. He was willing to answer all my questions and concerns. He also reassured me that everything is alright.

Always ask questions.

Storage, medicine, procedure cost. Everything was up front so there are no surprise fees.

Dr. Kort was professional, knowledgeable and reachable (via phone / email) every time I had questions from day one, throughout the course. I appreciate that Dr. Kort presents facts, statistics and options w/o imposing anything, explaining the risks, possible outcome and his suggestions, letting patient (me) breathe, and decide for myself. He never created an “urgency” to do one or other procedure.

Ask questions. Dr. Kort will speak as much you will want him to speak.

I was lucky to have only one IUI procedure that resulted in pregnancy

Haven’t received all yet. Most is still being processed and reviewed by my insurance company . The ones I received so far, seem average market cost for particular type of procedures.

As soon as I met with Dr. Kort I was at ease, he was kind and understanding and he is truly a expert in his field, up to date on all current treatment options. He is easy to talk to and listened to all of my concerns and fears with a calm manner. After meeting with him I left with a folder full of information of what we discussed during the consultation, step by step information on how the procedures would work and what type of medication I will need as well as the pricing for the procedure and medication.

You don't have to walk in full of nerves and anxiousness you can trust that you will be in good hands and that you will be dealing with a expert in his field. You will feel warmth and compassion from that very moment you walk in to meet him. you can be yourself because he will treat you like you are family.

When I first walked in for consultation he discussed my AMH level with me and how he wanted to see how many follicles I had and that it will be best to check during my period cycle, which caught me off guard and explained each type of medication I would have to take, as well as the time the procedure would take and how it will be done very quickly and that I will be asleep during the procedure for egg retrieval, and that I will feel great after, some people can even go back to work the same day if they wanted to.

I believe it at that time it was $5000.00 for the procedure and around $5,000.00 for the medication then within that year the prices for the procedure went up by $1000.00

I came to Dr. Kort on the recommendation of my very good friend who had a fantastic experience with him. I came with some baggage, so I'm not speaking in vacuum when I'm recommending him. I previously had experience with three other doctors, and for one reason or the other I couldn't trust my IVF process to them: one horribly mismanaged my IUI which resulted in an ectopic pregnancy, one never gave enough information. I found other doctors not as knowledgeable, or their attitude and communication style poor, and once a clinic - really I'm not exaggerating - mismanaged. First of all, the protocol (Mild IVF) recommended by Dr. Kort was perfect for me, and I did better than we expected. I previously considered IVF at Cornell and they were planning to do regular IVF hoping for the same results. I was happy to inject less and feel less bloated and tired. It was really quite painless. Second of all, we became pregnant on the first try. So their lab and their selection process is spot on. Out of two embryos they selected and transferred, one was our pregnancy. I didn't do genetic testing ahead of time, but my 12 week tests showed perfect genetic results. And third of all, it was easy to reach the doctor, I saw him often and he was a pleasure to communicate with.

Relax and trust the process. And know that this clinic is great value for your money.

I did mild IVF. I remember it was a mix of Clomid and several injections. I reached ovulation quite quickly on day 13. We used mild IVF instead of regular protocol due to my diminished ovarian reserve. He recommended fresh transfer as I was 41 and eager to get pregnant now.

We prepaid for one cycle of IVF, it was around $12,000. Preliminary consultation , monitoring blood work, ultrasounds and drugs which was partially covered by my insurance, it was additional $2,500. (roughly as I don't remember specifically)

Dr. had strong preference for 2 embyos transferred instead of one because of my age and general probability of getting pregnant in my case. He was right.

Dr. Kort was the second fertility specialist we saw. At the first, we felt like we were being processed through a factory. Our experience with Dr. Kort and his office couldn't have been any more different: he and the entire staff immediately came to know us, our story, our goals, and our sensitivities. Dr. Kort always made himself available for meetings and phone calls to field our many questions and help us navigate this difficult process. Dr. Kort never let us lose sight of the bigger picture and always gave us comfort that the process would work for us.

Don't be shy about asking questions! Dr. Kort makes himself available at any time, for any length, to answer questions and help navigate this challenging process.

Our direct costs were (1) copays in connection with office visits/blood tests and (2) the costs of medicines not covered by insurance. We also elected to complete two forms of testing not covered by insurance.

Dr. Kort is kind, thorough, attentive, transparent, trustworthy, and took a lot of time to explain in thorough detail all of the options for my care. I never felt that I was getting a standard or "canned" answer, he always really thought about my question and my perspective and discussed the options with me considering me as a human being and not just a patient.

Go see him.

We started with clomid + IUI, after a year I agreed to do egg retrievals, initially we did ICSI transfers without additional testing, but after implanting an embryo that did not survive I then agreed to try PGS. We also did the ERA which determined I run 1 day behind, and then did a PGS-proven embryo transfer on day 7, which implanted and is now a healthy fetus.

The morning was so peaceful, such a change from my experiences in another clinic. Their waiting rooms are comfortable and they have multiple small waiting rooms so you're never sitting with too many other people. My 4 year old came with me and actually loved it there. Clean, bright, smells good, not a long wait.

My insurance covered these treatments and I paid co-pays and I paid outright for PGS and ERA

I used single embryo transfer which was my choice

Dr. Kort is enthusiastic about his profession and the well-being of his patients alike. He is thorough, knowledgable, and professional. As a patient, I always felt well taken care of and supported under his care. Dr. Kort is a clear communicator and establishes a sense of comfort and safety from the get-go. During appointments, he always explained exactly what he was doing step-by-step. He is warm, empathetic, knowledgable, and has an excellent bedside manner.

My partner and I did IUI for three cycles where I was taking letrozole x5 days, would take a trigger shot, and then do IUI 36 hours later. After the first unsuccessful cycle using 2.5mg of letrozole, Dr. Kort increased my dose to 5mg. I stayed on the same dose for cycles 2 and 3 without success. Before starting IVF, my partner and I tried naturally for one month due to insurance reasons. Leading up to the egg retrieval, I was taking Gonal f 225iu and Menopur 75iu on days 1-8, and Cetrotide 0.25mg on days 5-8. I took Leuprolide 80 u on day 9 and had the retrieval 36 hours later. We did a frozen transfer, so I took Estrace 2mg TID on days 1-18 after the retrieval. On day 19, Dr. Kort added Endometrin 100mg TID and progesterone in sesame 1mL IM q3days. This first transfer resulted in an intrauterine pregnancy.

I never felt that the monitoring window was too busy. There weren't long wait times, and the appointments moved along smoothly. If I was ever running late, Dr. Kort always made time to see me.

Dr. Kort urged us to do a single embryo transfer because he felt our chances of conception were high given my age and health history. He would have transferred two embryos if that's what my partner and I wanted, but he counseled us against it and educated us on the risks of a multiple pregnancy. He was also firm in not transferring more than two embryos at a time.

Dr. Kort is compassionate, kind, patient and thoughtful in his patient care. The things I value in a physician, but more specifically a RE, are knowledge/skill, availability/responsiveness, empathy, and being non-judgmental. Dr. Kort has all of these things.

Dr. Kort is great in that he doesn’t talk down to you. Ever. The only place this might leave a gap in knowledge is that he may assume you know more about your body and the reproductive system than you do. Don’t feel intimidated to ask the most basic questions if you need to. He is happy to fill in facts and information. I was embarrassed with how little I actually knew about my own reproductive system and how it worked, but he never made me feel self conscious about it.

For PCOS/endometriosis/annovation/ male factor: We started treatment with a low dose of leterozole and monitoring. 2 follicles matured that month but no pregnancy. Dr. Kort gave us the option to proceed with leterozole or IUI or IVF. Due to our timeline I chose to go straight to IVF. He did not push this decision. Because I had a case of OHSS after egg retrieval at my previous fertility center, Dr. Kort Recommended IVM. Neway is one of only a handful of centers that offers IVM for specific patients who may not be able to tolerate IVF. This treatment offered lower doses of medicine for a shorter number of days. We did stim meds for four days and a trigger shot. I had 28 eggs retrieved, and the embryologist was in touch every other day with an update on how the eggs were maturing. Eventually, after ICSI, we had three healthy embryos. I had a fast recovery from retrieval and no OHSS. I would absolutely choose IVM again in the future. Dr. Kort encouraged me to give my body a month long break after egg retrieval since I had so many mature follicles and my ovaries were swollen. This was not what I wanted to hear at the time, however, for my health and to give us the best chance at a successful embryo transfer he encouraged a conservative approach and rest. At the end of the month I came in for monitoring again expecting to start my frozen embryo transfer. Dr. Kort saw my ovaries had returned to normal but two follicles were ready to release naturally. He took bloodwork and sent me home to try to conceive on our own that week. Two weeks later I got a positive pregnancy test. I’m now 10 weeks pregnant and we feel great that we took the steps to help put our future dreams of our family in place. We will be seeing Dr. Kort again after this pregnancy, and I wouldn’t have changed anything about my course of treatment.

Monitoring hours were in the morning 7:30 to 10 am. I never had to wait more than 5 minutes and was usually in at 7:30 and out by 8:15 (bloodwork and ultrasound) to make it to work on time.

I think IVM including ICSI and genetic screening was around 14-16k. My medication thorough insurance was $175. The costs were clearly laid out ahead of time and there were no surprises along the way.

Dr. Kort encourages SET, however, it varies patient to patient. Given this was our first time with embryo transfer, and we had no real reason to think I couldn’t carry a pregnancy, he encouraged SET. Ultimately it was up to us, but we were coached on the risks of multiples before making a decision. I’d also note that we were counseled early about single vs double transfer and had time to discuss as a couple. We didnt have to make any quick decisions. Ultimately we ended up pregnant naturally before having to decide.

Dr. Kort was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. I always felt like I was the only patient and he was never rushed or impatient. Dr. Kort always explained everything very clearly and talked about next steps and expectations

Absolutely book in for a consult with Dr. Kort

I started with 1 cycle of hormone treatment with IUI, when this was unsuccessful (due to issues with me) Dr. Kort gave me the option for trying again or going straight to IVF. We opted for IVF and were successfully in pregnancy with twins who are due at the end of April!

Monitoring was very accommodating, easy to organise around my schedule. I even had a miscarriage scare and they allowed me to come in immediately and did an ultrasound to check my babies. They were always caring and accomodating, I never felt like a burden or like they didn’t have time for me

My insurance covered the bulk of the costs so I am not sure, but they did have a fantastic financial staff who helped liase with my insurance and get everything sorted out for me

We discussed at length the options for transfer of 1 vs. 2 embryos, we decided on 2 as this offered the best chance for success

Dr. Kort was excellent. I am in my late 30s and was considering freezing my eggs. I have a high pressure job wherein I am not in a position to have a child at the moment as I work/travel in insecure locations. Dr. Kort put me at ease and ensured that I got the results that I needed in the time frame I had available. Dr. Kort was available by email and I saw him throughout the egg freezing process. He was courteous and kind and I would use him again!

To be as honest as possible. Dr. Kort is non judgmental and will let you know directly the risks, but more importantly, the opportunities provided by egg freezing.

I did egg freezing. Dr. Kort gave me the prescription, taught me about the drugs and gave me tips on how to inject. Honestly, my procedure (extraction) was low stress and I retrieved a dozen eggs. I felt comfortable and confident throughout the process.

Morning monitoring was very easy. Nurses would call us in quickly and I rarely waited more than ten minutes. Morning sessions with Dr. Kort were organized, timely and painless.

8,500 for egg freezing

Dr Daniel Kort was amazing. He did not pressure me into doing anything, which i felt is what most doctors are doing these days. He took an extra 30 minutes over my consultation time to answer my questions. He would call the pharmacy himself to make sure my medications went through, and he would call me every other day to check in on how I was feeling. He also would reply to my emails within the hour if I had any questions. He also has a great sense of humor. I was really impressed with him and his nurses. They also went out of their way to call me and check in on how I was doing. I really appreciated such gestures as this is clearly a very vulnerable process.

To be prepared to take time off in the morning to get blood work done and check ups! its an average of about five times in two weeks you will have to do this so allot that time for yourself before work (if you work).

Dr Kort and his nurses had me on an easy to follow protocol between check ups, blood work, and ultrasounds. It appeared I was on the normal cycle of injections, with firm and clear directions emailed to me every single day. I was able to produce 18 eggs, 8 of which passed to be frozen, and 3 they grew to term, for a total of 11 eggs frozen. I was very happy with the results.

It was $5000.00 out of pocket for the surgery and process. around $2000 for medications. and $600 annual storage.

We love absolutely everything about Doctor Kort and will recommend him to our best friends without the slightest hesitation. Dr. Kort presents information in a delicate manner, he has a "warm" bedside manner. As a patient, it is important for me to understand every detail of my treatment. We left each appointment with a clear understanding of what to expect next. His confidence, calm manner, and knowledge made us feel confident in what we are doing. We trust him100%. We highly recommend him and we continue seeing him. Dr. Kort is brilliant. We are lucky we found him.

You will have no worries or fears how and what to do. Dr. Kort will diligently guide you through each step of treatment.

Every step of my treatment was professionally administered. I have no complaints.

Acceptable.

No comments. We follow the doctor's directions.

It wasn’t easy finding the perfect fertility doctor and clinic, but if you’re reading this; you have. Dr Kort and Neway Fertility are the ideal combination of advanced technology and incredibly skilled doctors and assistants. On top of that, every single person who works there is genuinely nice! When my wife and I were looking for LGBTI friendly clinics, others showed up before this one, but they were ultimately more expensive, less technologically savvy and less personable. I could not recommend Dr. Kort and Neway more enthusiastically. In fact, I know that when we’re ready to expand our family, there isn’t anyone else I’d trust more.

We used IUI at first and after 3 attempts moved to mini IVF. We became pregnant with our first IVF 5 day fresh transfer. We transferred only one blastocyst, since a singleton was our preference. Our remaining blastocysts are banked with them for future use.

Dr. Kort took his time to answer all of my questions, and I never felt rushed when meeting with him. He listened carefully and provided answers to all of my questions. There were times where the rates of success were scary, and he used a lot of statistics and research when answering questions, but I really appreciated that.

He will answer all questions thoroughly, make sure you take great notes!

We started with a cycle in which we made sure everything was ok, and this included a saline infusion sonohysterogram. Dr. Kort used estrogen pills x3 a day and cited the risk of ovulating if less pills were used. He also preferred to use progesterone oil, intramuscular shots, and cited evidence that it was slightly more effective and easier to test in the body if anything were to go wrong. At 7 weeks, he allowed me to switch to progesterone vaginal inserts, stating that the body would also start producing progesterone around this time. There were 7 frozen embryos and we decided not to test them as I had a live birth that resulted from this cohort of embryos. The first frozen transfer failed. He wanted to use the same regimen, but I asked to lower the estrogen due to my sensitivity to medications and my knowledge that high levels of estrogen could impact cycles. He again explained why he preferred to use estrogen three times a day, but we lowered the estrogen to two due to my request. All other protocols remained the same and the second frozen embryo transfer was successful!

I am unable to remember components, but my insurance covered a lot of my treatment, and I had copays and limits that had to be met. I was always offered options for payment and was not forced to make payments same day, always being allowed to pay when I was ready. Overall, clinic costs were probably around 3k, due to my insurance coverage.

Dr. Kort had a preference for a single embryo transfer due to my history, but after the first failed frozen embryo transfer, he was open to transferring two embryos - while cautioning about risks. He was conservative and so was I.

He was easy to talk to and clear. He was also always approachable and easy to get a hold of. I felt like I had the ability to reach him whenever I needed. I never felt like he was rushing during visits. He took his time to explain things to me and he always talked out loud as he did scans to let me know what he was seeing.

None.

I used subQ injections to stimulate ovulation and then did IUI. Dr. Kort was clear from the beginning explaining his rationale for why we took this approach.

Minimal.

N/A

I can’t say enough about Dr Kort. He was so reassuring, kind and communicative. He knows how to tailor treatment to each individual and is always on top of the details! I always felt completely comfortable with him.

Trust him - he’s great at what he does!

Dr Kort was very compassionate, professional and thorough. He took such wonderful care of me, explaining things carefully to make certain I understood. Since the appointment I have had many questions which his response time is very fast. He'll even jump on a call to discuss in detail so he is assured you fully understand. Feel lucky to have found him.
