[Dr. James Chuong] is extremely personable and very detailed. He used pictures and made diagrams to explain everything very well. We felt quite comfortable discussing with him. He took time to answer all our questions and was not in any rush. I really liked his honest and in depth informative approach...In our case he recommended eSET...was very thorough and informative about the procedures and the treatment plans. He spend good amount of time explaining every step and really nice. However, the facility overall was not too charming or impressive. Lots of signs for no trespassing and seemed a little strange being in the waiting room. the staff and everyone was quite nice but still had a strange feeling about the place.

Parking was paid but they validate. The waiting area was not impressive. It had a lot of signs for solicitors etc which were not very appealing. Seemed rather small and congested.

I like the way Dr. Chuong explains all the procedure, He also value my opinion and the research I do. He also pay attention of what I think about how my body responds to different treatments and medicines...We had try different medications and protocols but for know in my mind for the economy factor letrozole and clomid was the best. But I haven’t had the big positive pregnancy yet...always asking me about my family they remember the name of my relatives.
She [nurse at Cooper Institute for Reproductive Hormonal Disorders] is great. She always know how to explain any protocol. And also treat me like family. A big pro is she speaks Spanish...explain all the billing process on advanced so I don’t have any misunderstanding. They even text the day before with and explanation of the next day appointment...I like how they pay a lot of attention of the overall and not only the physical. I will recommend they improve the design of the office. I think they should had a better waiting area. It will be nice if they will follow up with you after ovulation. Just to give some comfort because those day of waiting what happened are very stressful.
