[Dr. Dorette Norhassen] Offered another round of IUI but recommended moving towards IVF as this would give us a better chance of overall conceiving...did not leave any stone un-turned and really did a complete workup to ease my mind. When it came time to discuss IVF verses other treatments she was really honest and informative giving us all the facts and letting us come to our conclusion...made me feel confident...really took the time to go over everything with my husband and I. I was visiting her for a second opinion becuase my first reproductive endocrinologist wasn't being my advocate and treated me like a number. Dr. Noorhasen did not leave any stone un-turned and really did a complete workup to ease my mind.
[The nurse at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth is] Always on top of everything, really good communicator, always called if something couldn't be answer via email/portal. Very reassuring and supportive...All staff from the front desk, to the clinical staff, to the lab staff and the MDs were so kind and caring. I really felt like they truly were invested in the success of my treatments, not just a number. I really felt like my nurses genuinely wanted me to have the best outcome possible.

How was your experience with Dorette Noorhasan at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth?
I felt like she really was my advocate. I had seen another RE prior to seeking her as a second opinion and the care/treatment was worlds different. She really took the time to explain to me the process and steps/workup.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Dorette Noorhasan at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth?
She is good at explaining everything but always ask questions/write questions down/keep a journal.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Dorette Noorhasan at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth?
Dr. Noorhasen really took the time to go over everything with my husband and I. I was visiting her for a second opinion becuase my first reproductive endocrinologist wasn't being my advocate and treated me like a number. Dr. Noorhasen did not leave any stone un-turned and really did a complete workup to ease my mind. When it came time to discuss IVF verses other treatments she was really honest and informative giving us all the facts and letting us come to our conclusion. Her staff at the clinic always made me feel like I was the priority and always seemed to be on top of everything when it came to testing, labs, my husbands labs, etc. I was ashamed at first to be getting a second opinion, but Dr. Noorhassen made me feel confident. If you feel like your doctor isn't being your advocate then find another... CCRM and Dr. Noorhassen really made me feel like I was a priority and really was my advocate.

She [Dr. Noorhasan] was honest and open, very professional. She had been through this herself, and she had a belief in the outcome, as well as compassion for the journey. She would tell you what she honestly believed regarding your chances, which was a refreshing change from other doctors...would take the time to talk with me like a human being, consider the things I was dealing with, and make recommendations. I felt like she was transparent and honest.
CCRM DFW changed policies on frozen eggbanks mid-stream due to CCRM CO's mandate. No longer willing to do business with any eggbank; no longer willing to accept embryos from even the single eggbank they were still allowed to work with. Literally had the change with acceptance embryo shipping happen in the span of a single 8 hour day (it was ok that morning, by that afternoon, not ok)...On more than one occasion, I got some conflicting instructions and had to iron it out. And then there was the post-op appointment never scheduled.... I went to a pre-op appointment. Would have thought they'd schedule me for a post-op appointment at that time.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Dorette Noorhasan at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth?
Do your homework and ask real questions. You will get real answers. May be difficult to hear, but at least you're empowered to make good decisions for your care. As an AMA/DOR patient, I have a lot of confidence in her.

Describe the protocols Dorette Noorhasan used in your cycles at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth and their degree of success.
Fresh donor eggs. Insurance wouldn't cover me, any longer, for fertility treatments with own eggs. Results are that I am choosing to transfer my care to a clinic where I can afford their fresh donor egg cycle and with SART rates that demonstrate a high rate of success with them.
Describe your experience with your nurse at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth. (Assigned nurse: Jamie)
Reen, donor coordinator was fabulous.
Jamie seemed capable, responsive, and compassionate.
Michelle caused me some heartburn. There was a distinct lack of communication inside the clinic before reaching out to me. On more than one occasion, I got some conflicting instructions and had to iron it out. And then there was the post-op appointment never scheduled.... I went to a pre-op appointment. Would have thought they'd schedule me for a post-op appointment at that time.
Describe your experience with CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth.
This clinic (CCRM-DFW) is having some challenges with its merger. If you're doing IVF with your own eggs, this is probably less of a challenge than trying to do donor eggs and having a still somewhat disorganized clinic then try to coordinate with external entities like a Donor Agency or Donor Eggbank.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Dorette Noorhasan at CCRM Dallas-Fort Worth.
Only had hysteroscopy. Doctor's fee, negotiated rate, was $400. Surgery at hospital cost $13k+

She [Dr. Noorhasan] reviewed my medical history and talked with my previous doctors since my case was unique. She was very honest and said that it would be hard for me to have kids of my own, something I had not even thought about yet. She is helping treat my cyst on my remaining ovary and then going to freeze my eggs. While other doctors gave me no options, she at least gave me a small chance at having children in the future.
It [Fertility Specialists of Texas] is very modern and has a lot of new technology....I can get all my results instantly and get electronic copies to send to my other providers as well.... They replied to phone and emails very quickly and got insurance issues resolved so effectively... The costs are still occurring and my insurance is supposedly covering some of this because of my past medical history... She [Dr. Noorhasan] was sympathetic and very understanding of my situation.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Dorette Noorhasan at Fertility Specialists of Texas?
She doesn't always spend a lot of time with Artie TA so have all your questions ready because it will be hard to get in contact with her once she leaves the room
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Dorette Noorhasan at Fertility Specialists of Texas?
She was sympathetic and very understanding of my situation. I went from not even thinking about having children to the very real possiblity that I probably won't b able to have kids. Since I am still in my mid 20's, she told me she would try everything to give me at least a shot of having kids someday and that's all I was looking to when I went to see her for the first time.

She tells you all risks and is not afraid to tell you when your decision is not best for optimal outcome. She performed all tests and my egg retrieval.

The clinic [Fertility Specialists of Texas] offered military discount which was greatly appreciated...If you call the front desk, they are extremely helpful. I had great experience with the billing department. I love this clinic...The staff knew my name and I never felt like they were just talking from my chart, they knew my diagnosis and story...I couldn't have asked for a better nurse. Jami was quick to answer all my questions and explain everything with much detail. When we got bad news she knew just how to tell us and what to do next. I am so thankful for her and her skill.

Dr Noorhasan is knowledgable and knows her limitations as well. We do not present as a typical infertility case, and rather than continue on the same course of treatment, she has recommended a third opinion that is not standard of care knowing that it could help us achieve our goal of having a baby. She has also presented us with other options for treatment such as using a gestational carrier should we choose to go that route instead.

Describe the protocols Dorette Noorhasan used in your cycles at Fertility Specialists of Texas and their degree of success.
IVF with ICSI and PGS testing of our embryos. We already had done IVF and were unsuccessful so it made sense to try again with more information about our embryos. We still did not achieve our goal of having a baby but it appears that I may not be able to carry a baby due to uterine issues that are unknown at this point.
