Review of
My experience with Ellen Hayes was wonderful! She is a great doctor that is great at her job. Her character is full of positivity and she brings great passion when you meet her in person. My spouse and I were very excited that we were able to have a doctor that was very empathizing and did not push us to do things that we may have felt uncomfortable in doing.
Although the clinic [Kindbody] is small, it's cozy, tidy and neat. Strengths of the clinic is that they are attentive to their patients when working one-on-one. The weaknesses of the clinic is that there is usually just one staff admin at the desk so the wait time may be longer than expected. Overall, the clinic is great!

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Ellen Hayes at Kindbody - Milwaukee?
Dr Hayes was very informative on the steps that we needed to take to come out of this journey successfully. She was hands on and when we first met her at our consultation she was very warming and full of empathy in our process and why we are seeking fertility treatment. When I met her in person for my ultrasound exam, she was hands on and was full of positivity that I really enjoyed her company as it made me have hope in our journey.
Describe the protocols Ellen Hayes used in your cycles at Kindbody - Milwaukee and their degree of success.
We are just over the hump of all the testing and results and are currently heading into the next treatment phase of IVF shots. Dr. Hayes was very informative on what my spouse and I needed to do in order to come out of this successfully and help us be in a better position. In the end result, Dr. Hayes recommended IVF for our treatment as my husband had male infertility. She also encouraged us to talk to the male fertility specialist and get their input to have a better understanding. Throughout the process Dr. Hayes stayed on top of our journey and made sure we were on the right track.
Describe your experience with your nurse at Kindbody - Milwaukee. (Assigned nurse: Lindsay)
Our nurse, Lindsay, has been wonderful! She is very communicative to us and very responsive, which I love! She is able to provide us the information that we need and also give us the flexibility of outside order testing since we lived 2 hours a way from clinic. She has been great and I'm very glad that we are working with such a wonderful staff!

Describe the costs associated with your care under Ellen Hayes at Kindbody - Milwaukee.
If you don't have insurance then it could get pricey for all the consultation, ultrasound etc. I did not have insurance when we first started, so I had to pay out of pocket of $350 for our 30 min. consultation with Dr. Hayes. Afterwards we had to do the semen analysis and ultrasound plus genetic testing which total up to be around $750.00. My spouse had to go back for another semen analysis which was another $175.00 cost. All our outside order testing such as blood drawn were around the ball park of $50-120.00 per test. Currently right now my prescriptions meds are covered such as birth control pills. We are heading into the next stage of the IVF journey and for the package that we have chosen is the IVF Advantage package, I believe, which is at $15,800.00 that includes the treatment and monitoring but unfortunately does not cover the IVF shots/medications- which can range from $6,000-8,000.00.
