She called after every cycle to discuss results and next steps, which is very different from my previous RE...
They [Shady Grove Fertility] use a team nursing model at the clinic, so I wasn't assigned one specific nurse. I didn't find this worked well for clear communications or building a rapport with my nurses...It did have a bit of a 'factory' feel. Things were often disorganized, especially with billing, but also on the clinical side. The nurses typically responded quickly through the online patient portal and returned phone calls on the after hours line quickly...
