Review of
He [Dr. Bohler] is very kind and answers any question you ask, but he is late to appointments, I had to remind him why I was seeing him and what procedures he had to do, and would forget the medications I had to take...Make sure you ask a lot of questions and remind him a lot of his upcoming appointments and procedures that he has with you...I had a glucose Tolerance test and blood work done that tested my Thyroid, TSh, testorne, AMH, TSH, Proclatin, Lipid pane,l FSH, progetsore
She [nurse at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare] is very good at returning my calls right away, she answers all my questions, she is a very good communicator, listener and very patient...They make appointments quickly, they answer your phone calls, and the nurses are really nice. The clinic has a good environment. Its clean, and organized. Weaknesses: I think the doctors should be the ones conducting the Vaginal ultra sounds and not send you to a tech. in another side of town. It's a bit frustrating because if i have questions right then I would like to talk to the doctor and not a tech who cant give me any info.

Review of
Dr. Bohler is an incredibly nice and sensitive man. He listened to me and my husbands wants and needs. He may not look you directly in the eye which can throw one off, but his responses let you know he was taking it all in.... My husband and I did 5 rounds of clomid with times intercourse. They would do a baseline ultrasound between cycle day 3-5. If no cysts, they would prescribe 5 days of 100mg of clomid. I would take that cycle days 3-7. I would start my ovulation predictor kits at CD 9. I would typically get a positive ovulation on CD 14-15. We were instructed to have intercourse the day of the positive ovulation test and then the two days following.
I had questions and emailed the nurse [at Univ of Louisville Women's Healthcare] and got a prompt response. Also, I called with questions and they answered them in a timely manner.... On our first visit we were given the prices for IUI and the cost of our baseline ultrasounds, everything we talked about that was financially possible for us. Well, until we saw the cost of IUI.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
I would probably tell them to take it all in and just feel him out, see if he is for you and your needs. Everybody is different and have different experiences. But as a RE, I personally think he is a great one.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
I feel like Dr. Bohler really listened to me. When it came to finances, he tried to help us as much as possible. It is a teaching hospital and the courtesy of all the Fellows and residents was nice as well.

Describe your experience with University of Louisville Women's Healthcare.
The beginning process is very tedious and stressful. Everything has to be in order to proceed. It takes time and I was just thinking “I’m ready to get pregnant ASAP” not knowing the beginning process was so in depth and a little long. Hang in there until you complete that and it was smoothe sailing from there.

Review of
Dr Bohler and his office couldn’t ever give us a straight story about how the process worked. We had problems getting our lining to grow and he just kept trying the same medications never once considering that maybe we needed a different approach from the norm....Completed surgery to remove a uterine polyp to get a “clean slate” for implantation. After retrieval, oral estrogen and then Letrozol were given in monotony varying doses for 8 months with no change in success with growth of the uterine lining.
Poor communication all around. We discussed our intent to do PGD for Huntington’s at our first visit. 2 months later we paid for the cycle of IVF. 2 months after that they [University of Louisville] came back and said we owed another $1500 for the biopsy for the PGD that they forgot to charge us for.... Seemed to never know what was going on and repeatedly gave us incorrect information resulting in false hope and poor planning.
How was your experience with Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
Process was extremely unorganized and we got 5 different stories about how the whole process was supposed to work in the first 5 months working with him. Never got straight answers and never had any resolution in the lack of communication.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
Go somewhere else!

Review of
Dr. Bohler seemed to dismiss my infertility issues and stated several times I was still young (32 at that time) so shouldn't worry....He didn't engage on a personal level and made me feel like my concerns were minimal. He was quick during all appointments and always seemed rushed... I was told I would have a full review with pictures/explanation at my post op appointment. I received neither and did not even see him only a RN and Doctoral student...
It took months to schedule an appointment. At each appointment I would wait close to an hour to be seen. Office [U of Louisville] is not very personal or welcoming with closed glass windows for staff....I was not billed for my surgery that occurred in 2015 until 2017. When I called the office to gain more information on the bill I was transferred from one area to another with never gaining a full understanding of the problem
How was your experience with Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
I waited for months to get an appointment with Dr. Bohler only to feel worse after the appointment. He didn't engage on a personal level and made me feel like my concerns were minimal. He was quick during all appointments and always seemed rushed or behind in his schedule
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Henry Bohler at University of Louisville Women's Healthcare?
Go to another clinic or doctor

Dr. Bohler seemed to dismiss my infertility issues and stated several times I was still young (32 at that time) so shouldn't worry. I ended up having a laparoscopy to remove a uterine septum and tubal blockage. I was told I would have a full review with pictures/explanation at my post op appointment. I received neither and did not even see him only a RN and Doctoral student

Review of
I felt like a number with him [Dr. Bohler]. He was mostly just checking what his Fellows/Residents said was correct. Leaving all of the work to them. He was polite but didn't seem to show compassion for the very difficult time we were having...I never felt like there was a cohesive plan for my care. I managed all of the follow-up and spent more time with his residents/Fellows than him. While that wasn't an issue I didn't feel like anyone was an advocate for me. I was doing it all alone.
Nice that there were 2 locations [U of Louisville]. New location was much nicer than downtown location. At downtown you often has to check-in in the regular OB office which was full of pregnant people and their children...Conflicting information from nurses about follicle ultrasounds. Also not enough info on why that is important....[Nursing staff] Friendly enough but there wasn't 1 person on charge so I never felt like I was getting consistent info...$500 for IUI
