Joseph Garza

I've talked to the officer manager more than anyone else... I very rarely see the doctor [Dr. Joseph Garza]. Ive also stated several times the hcg shot they've administered isn't working properly. And it didn't 1 month, because I had 2 cysts from the previous months follicles. But they were trying to move me on to injectables. Not happy about this...First treatment was clomid with hcg and iui. I was very hopeful but it didn't pan out. Next few cycles we tried clomid with hcg and relations.

Dr Garza has been doing this a long time. It shows in his knowledge. He can sometimes be soft spoken but always makes me feel comfortable. What I like best is his willingness to try the next thing when I didn't respond to treatments.... I did 3 rounds of clomid. The first round I missed my progresterone test to tell if I ovulated. When I went in they did an ultrasound and found a few cysts. They recommended a month of birth control to clear the cysts. The next month I had to redo the loswest dosage of clomid Because it hadn't been confirmed with the day 21 test that I had ovulated. I got a 7.5 on my progresterone test that month. I was told it was ovulation but they wanted to see stronger number. They doubled the dosage (100mg) but my test showed a 0so absolutely no ovulation. My scan showed a very large (7cm) cyst on my left ovary and they became more concerned about a smallish fibroid on my uterus. Again another month of birth control and awaiting laparoscopic surgery to remove the problems and give a better idea of the next steps.

He laid out a clear plan and what should be expected. The only complaint is that I wish I could see him more often but I know he has a lot of patients to take care of. Overall, Dr. Garza has been amazing! Dr. Garza has a great bed side manner, he is caring, he takes his time, he gives plenty of opportunities to ask questions, he doesn't pressure me into expensive procedures, he talks to my husband and I like a friend, and is very kind and patient.

Dr Garza was very nice and experienced. He might not have been as forthcoming as I would have liked. He told me wrong results one time but he made me feel comfortable most of the time. He should have canceled my cycle but didn’t so we got poor results. He does a lot of surgeries or procedures on patients. He was good at answering questions.... My first IUI has nothing but clomid. I had too many follicles so we cancelled cycle, cut it in half, then did the next cycle.

Dr. Garza's first words were there is no vanilla- each pt requires personalized stimulations to supplement their needs...He's the most caring and well informed, compassionate and honestly took time to discuss results until we understood. Spoke with us after clinic hours when we needed it. I've seen other Dr fir fertility fir over 3 years and maybe saw the dr 2-3 times over 8 months of treatment and testing. Dr. Garza was a part of our treatment and was very available if we wanted to discuss our progress.

Dr. Garza is a very experienced physician in his specialty. He takes the time to explain procedures and the plan of care. When my husband was very skeptical about I've, he came in and sat with him and answered allof his questions and reassure ld him regarding the procedure. He was honest about the statistics regarding ivf.... He recommended ivf with clomid 50mg after an unsuccessful round of clomid with relations. It was unsuccessful, but I did produce two large follicles, which was promising. The next recommendation was IUI with injectables, which was 3,000, and out of our budget.

Sense of humor. Other than that, hardly talked to him [Dr. Joseph Garza]. I didn't like the way he joked, like "Are you sure you want kids? They are a handful!" That was a very WRONG thing to say to me. I'm already vulnerable and you joke like that? Very long wait for each visit. The nurses seemed to take care of my treatment instead of him. Office was very bad at communicating.
