Mark Amols

Dr Amols is truly amazing! when me and my donor and my husband first met him i knew he was the one that was my doctor and his bedside manner is amazing! he really did get to know us and definitely understood what i was going thru and i havent had my transfer yet because i have had problems with lining and fluid in my uterus and surgery and all of that since 2015 and he has been there for me every step of the way!

that he truly understands his patients and really cares and makes sure they are taken care of and that they will be in great hands with Dr Amols!

i felt like a human cause he is amazing and he goes above and beyond for me! and really does care about me! he is going out of his way for a certain treatment i need that will help me with my transfer!

my first protocol i was on estrace pills and progesterone and the estrace pills is what caused my fluid and the progesterone did not dry it up so now we are on a different protocol were i am doing a prp treatment (taking my plasma putting it into my uterus to heal the uterus and get rid of the fluid and help with lining) and i will also be doing estrogen injections and patches and the progesterone injections as well and with this protocol i havent started yet as i will start november 1rst and my transfer is november 19th!

she is great! she is very helpful and answers all my questions as quick as she can! but all together the staff is great! all the nurses have been absolutely awesome!

New Direction is a place i would definitely go again for another transfer. they are always on top of everything and never miss a beat. they always reply to my messages when needed and very sympathetic as well. the only weakness is the waitlist is really long but definitely is worth it!

very affordable! was 4800 for the treatment and the meds cost were separate and i was paying out of pocket my insurance didnt cover the treatment and some of the meds

i have not had a transfer yet due to my issues but he will transfer only 1 embryo due to my condition that i have that is called turner syndrome.

I like his bedside manner. He seems like a genuinely good person that wants to help us. It was reassuring to hear that he has kids from fertility treatments too, so he understands. I cannot believe how much time he spends working and that I see him at almost every visit. He is a very hard worker.

Make sure you are ready to ask questions at your first consultation. I didn't and even though I could message the nurses later, it would have been nice to ask him directly. Also, get on the wait list soon than later. I had a 6 month wait originally.

He was very kind and I felt like he did a good job of explaining things in detail at our consultation. But the communication I feel like is slightly lacking. I thought we would get to choose if we were using meds for our IUI or not and I told the nurses we wanted to start with no meds, but at my baseline scan for my IUI I was given a med schedule and very confused. I trusted him and rolled with it, but still dont understand why we had to go straight to a medicated IUI.

He had me on letrozole for 5 days (cd 3-7), gonal f cd 5/7/9, rescan on day 9, triggered that night then back 36 hrs later for IUI. I understood what the drugs did, but wasnt sure why he recommended that exact protocol for us. I think I was just so happy to finally get started I didnt care.

There are quite a few. I have only seen a couple of them more than once so far. Everyone is nice, but one gave me wierd vibes like she didnt know what she was doing. Dr A told me he wanted to draw blood after my cd 9 scan to make sure I wasnt ovulating on my own too early. I asked the nurse before I left if I still needed that and she said no so I left. Then was called 15 min later to come back and get my blood drawn. Other than that I feel like they explain things well as far as next steps etc.

Its very clean, modern and has a calming atmosphere. I like that you can see the embryo lab. They always call me back to my appts on time. They are also very affordable. The only con is the clinic told me my insurance did not cover treatment and I assumed that included meds too. So I paid out of pocket for meds at first, then had to call back to get my money back. When I am spending this much money I wish they had been more clear to save me time. I am glad that I was on top of things.

My first consult was $300 out of pocket. IUI was $750 for all scan, bloods and the procedure itself. My meds were $200 but were partially covered by insurance. My insurance also covered testing to diagnose infertility.

He was very compassionate. He was honest with us from the first phone consult (we live out of state). He suggested we try a urologist before seeing him because he felt like that had a chance of fixing things. Ultimately, I was tired of waiting and tired of intervention and I had made my mind up to move forward with IVF at that point, but I liked that he was honest and wasn't just trying to make money. Every in person visit was comfortable and he always made me feel at ease. He explained the good and the bad and I always felt informed.

If you want him to be your doctor then sign up for a cycle now. I called in July and their next opening wasn't until November. This actually worked perfectly for us, but he's the only doc at his clinic and I believe he wants to provide exceptional care so he only takes on so many patients per cycle.

The staff was always quick to respond to any of my questions via text. I had Dr. Amols cell number and even though I only messaged him once, it was a comfort knowing he was available if I needed him. I also felt like Dr. Amols paid attention to my specific case and was very honest, but also kind with explaining my progress even when it wasn't what he had initially expected.

He thought I was going to be an over responder so initially my doses were on the lower side. I was on gonal-f, menupor, and then cetrotide. I ended up having to buy more meds towards the end of the cycle because I wasn't responding as we'd hoped. Thankfully, the pharmacy they use is in Scottsdale and I was able to get the extra meds the next day.

They have a retrevial coordinator and transfer coordinator who were both very helpful, but I did see several other nurses during blood draws and other appointments. For the most part all the staff is very friendly and competent.

The clinic was easy to find and very welcoming. I didn't love that I couldn't make a payment over the phone without being charged an extra fee for doing so, but I just ended up paying when I got to the clinic in person. Everything is updated and clean.

I paid the clinic a bit over 7000 for the cycle, including one transfer. Medication was probably close to 3000 maybe a little more, but I received some donated medication. I had to have monitoring appointments in my state which was close to another 3000. Finally, we paid 2000 to have our 5 embryos tested. If you are in state I believe the monitoring appointments leading up to the ivf cycle are included in the 7000, but it doesn't include preliminary testing such as HSG, saline sono etc. However, I had a saline sonohysterogram done with Dr. Amols for 300 because my state clinic wanted to charge me 1050..so it was cheaper to fly to az for the day.

I think they prefer a single embryo transfer unless there are very few eggs or other issues that might warrant transferring more. It was our choice if we wanted to transfer one or two and we elected one.

Dr. Amols has a great bedside manner. I feel like he and his clinic have a successful system down for routine IVF patients, but don't handle "ouliers"...difficult IVF histories and older patients...well. If you don't fit their program, you're likely to fall through the cracks. Thankfully, his prices are much more fair out of pocket than most other clinics, but it adds up with failed cycles, cost of freezing, and extra transfers. Some places include this in their packages, so compare that as well. Also, they weren't up front about total PGS costs, which would have changed our decision, but we didn't know the total cost until it was too late.

Be your own advocate. You're paying them, don't be afraid to reach out and clarify things. Consider how routine your case seems to be, and consider your age.

Apparently Dr. Amols was very involved in care early on, but I think they've gotten very busy lately and I definitely felt like a number and like I was following a certain "recipe" that didn't apply to me individually.

My protocol with Dr. Amols used much lower doses of stims than previous cycles, and seemed to take forever to get to retrieval. I was on an agonist/antagonist cycle using lupron, menopur, follistim, and cetrotide. I was never really given a rationale for using this protocol, was just given the protocol.

You will rarely encounter a nurse after egg retrieval. I found this to be very disappointing. After retrieval, for transfers and all other questions, they go through his staff of Medical Assistants. I've always had a primary nurse at any other clinic I've been to, so this was very hard to get used to. There's a different knowledge/experience base.

Communication is a weakness. It's improved with a new app they use to text, but is still not at the level I've experienced at other clinics, where I feel more like a patient than a number. Financial communication REALLY needs some improvement. First of all, they quoted us $1200 for PGS, but failed to tell us that we'd also have to pay the lab $1800...we found this out when the lab called us for payment. Not a happy day. They have also been reluctant to answer questions about the cost of FET. On a better note, they do include most of their pricing online, I just wish it would be more comprehensive and up front.

Retrieval $4800 ICSI $500 PGS $3000 FET $2000 Storage $500/yr

Dr. Amols seems to have a bias for multiple embryo transfer, but is open to and fully explains eSET, and the risks/benefits of both.

Dr. Amols is very personable and remembers you immediately, even despite his huge patient load. When we had surprising results, he was candid in explaining our options. He has encouraged me to come in to freeze several sperm samples in order to increase our chances of success, and seems really invested in getting my wife and I pregnant.

Be prepared for the emotional toll of infertility. But Dr. Amols and his staff do a good job of easing that emotional blow.

I didn't feel like I was rushed to get in and out of the office. I feel like they were genuinely interested in our experience rather than just administering medical treatment. Dr. Amols took the time to fully explain my results through the Klara texting treatment, even when I was unable to attend an appointment in person with my wife.

Due to azoospermia and my sperm count being 3 sperm, Dr. Amols prescribed HCG injections three times weekly to help counteract the hormonal imbalance and potentially increase sperm production. He also prescribed ongoing sperm samples and cryotherapy to freeze any additional sperm found in each sample. We will be utilizing ICSI after our upcoming egg retrieval to increase chances of fertilization. He also referred me to a urologist to continue my care following IVF.

Maggie is an excellent communicator, especially with my wife. Maggie also coordinates my sperm samples for cryotherapy, and is clear and encouraging.

The phlebotomist was gentle and caring, moreso than others in my experience in other offices (they hurt!). Dr. Amols is approachable and available. His office is clean, modern, and up to date. The techs can sometimes seem scattered or disorganized, but it has not negatively affected our care. Our initial appointment was originally 6 months out, but we were able to quickly get in off of the cancellation list, which we were grateful for.

All said and done, our out of pocket costs will be about $10k. His costs were $4800 for IVF, $500 for ICSI, $300 for anesthesia, $1200 for embryo biopsy, PGS testing to the outside company was $2000, plus the cost of medications.

Dr. Amols only does frozen embryo transfers, and provides the option of transferring one or two embryos. He is clear with the success rates of each option.

This is a busy clinic, but I never felt ignored or rushed. Dr. Amols took his time with me. I was always able to schedule at convenient times. He is a compassionate, understanding doctor. And his fees are more reasonable compared to nearby clinics. I wold recommend him to anyone. You get to see Dr. Amols at every scan and procedure, so write down questions to ask if you have any because you'll get to see him every appointment.

Be your own advocate, ask questions, and double check things.

He always remembered me, my questions, answered everything thoroughly, and catered my protocol to what would work best for me.

I did embryo banking due to low ovarian reserve. I did a frozen embryo transfer after the egg retrievals. I requested ICSI due to low number of eggs retrieved. I did PGS testing to make sure I transferred a normal embryo. I did an ERA because I wanted to make sure we transferred on the right day.

This is a busy clinic, but I never felt ignored or rushed. The nurse staff made some errors. I recommend all patients, no matter where they go, to pay attention, write things down, and double check. Double check with the staff and never be afraid to ask questions or to call to double check something.

Again, this is a busy clinic. Call frequently to check availability for a consult if you're scheduling for the first time. Never be afraid to ask questions, especially during your appointments. The location is right off the freeway and is easily accessible. Most communication is done electronically, which is easy and convenient.

$4800 base price for one IVF cycle and one FET $500 for anesthesia billed separately $300 for ICSI if needed, billed separately $200 HSG

Knowledgeable and compassionate but too busy, sometimes I felt like things the Dr told me he later contradicted himself. Like after first retrieval he told me he thought he achieved goal which was really great, 3rd cycle he wanted to change protocol and I asked why we aren't doing what we did first time, since he thought that was a good cycle, and response was it was an ok cycle.

Stay on top of things.

Extremely busy clinic and Dr was always rushed to get to next patient, follow ups take too long to schedule

Microdose Lupron flare gonal menapur bcp prime. Batched cycle. Retrieved 7 eggs 2 were seperated from sac during retrieval, I was left in a lot of discomfort after retrieval, 4 fertilized 2 5 day embryos, PGs abnormal, Estrogen prime back to back cycle, gonal menapur, lead follicle only 3retrieved,2 mature 2 fertilized, too poor quality for testing or freezing 3rd cycle estrogen prime lead follicle cancelled day 7 of stim, I was monitored from out of state, Dr would not cancel sooner because he did not trust scan of monitoring Dr. Which also happened previous cycle. Later after I was told how horrible monitoring Dr was at measuring follicles at end of conversation I was told the scans weren't the problem, I was dealing with lead follicle issue.

Clinic is new and beautiful, but so busy, the Dr does all your scans which is nice but they are only 5-10 minute appointments so this is the only time I had to speak with Dr. After scans if you have any questions Dr will set you up with nurse or Cordinator to discuss

Dr. Amols was present at every monitoring appointment I had which made me feel confident that he was making sure I received the best treatment and protocol possible. He did answer all my questions, but there were times I wish I had a little more time for questions. He was always very upfront and realistic about what I could expect and made it clear he would push me to get the most eggs possible so that I had the best chance of having success when it comes time to use the eggs. He has great bedside manner and it's clear that he cares about his patients. He was able to retrieve 28 mature eggs (31 total but 3 were immature) and I was extremely happy with the outcome of treatment. I would definitely recommend him.

Make sure you have your questions written down so you are prepared to ask them as soon as he walks in the room. He sees a lot of patients, so you have to make the most of the time you have with him during appointments.

Dr. Amols and the nurses took the time to answer my questions quickly and were always very prompt in getting back to me with test results and medication protocols. They do see quite a few patients and sometimes things felt a little rushed during my time at the clinic, but Dr. Amols made sure to push me to get the most eggs possible and I appreciated this strategy very much.

I was on one month of birth control prior to starting injections. I had my baseline ultrasound a couple days after ending birth control, then started microdose lupron injections (20 units AM and PM) the next day, continuing those until the night of my trigger shot. After 2 days of microdose lupron injections only, I started taking 75 units of Menopur in the morning and 300 units of Gonal-F in the evenings. I stimmed for 9 days on that protocol, then on the 10th day we continued microdose lupron AM and PM and 75 units of Menopur in the AM followed by 100 units of Gonal F PM because my follicles were borderline ready to go. The 11th day microdose lupron injections both AM and PM and trigger shot PM with retrieval 36 hours later.

The nurses were wonderful! They were quick to answer my questions and very helpful. The only difficulty (if you can call it that) I had was how quickly the nurse who assisted me after my egg retrieval tried to get me up and out of the recovery room. I woke up super nauseous and in pain and they needed me to get rolling because they needed the room for another patient. I guess they typically get people up and out within 15 minutes, I think it may have taken me about 30. I did feel a little rushed to recover which wasn't super fun given how crappy I was feeling, but that was the only thing that was a little rough about my experience with the nursing staff.

They see a lot of patients but they are so on top of things. At most, I only had to wait 10 minutes after a scheduled appointment time to see the doctor. The clinic was clean, felt up to date tech-wise, and made me feel comfortable with my decision to seek treatment there.

So unbelievably affordable which made it possible for me to go through this process. $1000 for clinic fees, $300 for anesthesia, $300 per year for storage for up to 20 eggs ($100 for every 10 after).

Dr Amols is very patient and kind and always made me feel super comfortable at each appointment even though I was a nervous wreck at times. I never felt rushed during my appointments. If I forgot to ask a question I could just call or use the app to get an answer within the day. He easily explained the process and what to expect. He even helped us save a ton of money buying the meds through insurance by knowing the right thing to say to the insurance company. I highly recommend Dr Amols to anyone seeking fertility treatment.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions and be honest with your medical history.

Dr Amols treated me as if I was his only patient each visit. He didn’t make me feel rushed and was very patient with my questions. When he wasn’t available, the staff was amazing and was very knowledgeable.

Dr Amols made sure you were explained how to use the injections and you had the option to bring in the first dosage for the nurse to show you how to do it. Be sure to follow directions and dosage exactly. During injections there were quite a few appointments to track how your body was handling them. I had to lower the dosage on one type of injection because it was working too well. He closely monitored your progress and hormones. Honestly the hardest part for me was after the egg retrieval but that was due to the side affects of the meds I needed to take to prevent the ovarian overstimulation syndrome. After about 5 days I was back to normal. The clinic kept you updated on the amount of embryos and how many were successful by day 5. You went back to being monitored for the embryo transfer until your body was ready all while taking progesterone shots. I wasn’t expecting how long you needed to take the shots(through first trimester of pregnancy) so that took an emotional toll on me for sure but it was all worth it at the end

My care coordinator was always there when I had questions and very patient. The nursing staff was always nice too. Only negative thing was one of the phlebotomist was awful at drawing blood. Not sure if she was new and inexperience but I always dreaded seeing her when it was time for a blood draw. No fault of the clinic but still painful to deal with

Very welcoming staff. The wait was never terrible and you were seen on time most days. One downfall would be the finance department. I was getting bills from the clinic months after I “graduated”. The last bill I recieved was July and I finished at the clinic in the beginning of April

Since Dr Amols knew of a loop hole with tricare, I was able to get all medication for the entire process for way cheep. It cost a few hundred versus a few thousand. The actual cost of the fertility treatment and procedure through the clinic was a lot less expensive then other fertility treatments in the Phoenix area that I researched. I spent approximately $10-$15K from start to finish

Dr Amols did recommend to transfer two embryos instead of one at the very beginning of our initial meeting because of how long we have been struggling with infertility but it was ultimately our choice. I liked that he would not transfer more than 2 at a time (at least for our situation and age) just for the safety of the Mom and babies. I don’t feel I was given all the risks of having twins vs a singleton at the time but my husband and I probably would have still chosen to transfer two embryos instead of one if we did.

My experience as a patient with Dr. Amols has been incredibly positive. I always felt important and like he actually cared about the resulta of the treatments. He remembered us from visit to visit and got visibly frustrated with us when the initial tteatments were not working and didn't give up until we found what would work for us.

Make an appointmentvas soon as you realize you are experiencing infirtility. Also, don't be afraid to explain any issues or concerns you have with him.

Dr. Amols treated me like a human 100%. He listened to my concerns regarding different treatments and explained everyrhing in detail. He also worked out a very individualized plan to work around a needle phobia I have so we could be successful in our attempts to have children.

At first we tried doing IUIs because there were no indications that we would not be able to concieve via insemination, after 4 progressively aggressive treatments did not result in any pregnancy we moved on to an egg retrieval with a frozen transfer. Half of the eggs were fertilized via ICSI and half naturally. The half that were attempted to be fertilized naturally did not fertilize without ICSI, which showed us the reason the IUIs were not working. We chose not to do any genetic testing on the embryos for personal religeous reasons and becaise of that opted to transfer 2 embryos at a time to increase the chances of a successful pregnancy. The first transfer resulted in an ectopic pregnancy that ended with a ruptured fallopian tube. The second transfer resulted in a healthy twin pregnancy and I gave birth in March of 2018.

The nursing staff was very caring and proficient in their jobs. Whenever I had a question they answered quickly and without making me feel bad for asking even kind of stupid questions. I felt very cared for by the staff at New Direction Fertility.

The clinic is very clean and welcoming. Ot was also very easy to find and has more than one restroom which can be important. The main weakness would be that appointments tend to run late as you get later in the day, but this is because of the personalized care received and the fact that patients aren't rushed out.

The components of our treatment costs were the treatments themselves (ultrasounds, retrieval surgery, IUIs, transfers, ICSI fertilization, and testing) and the medications.

Dr. Amols is a doctor not only that i would recommend to my closest friends and family, but IS who I’ve recommended and have sent 10-15 people to already. His communication is top notch. He is very detailed, asks you questions to make sure you understand, is very honest yet extremely compassionate with a positive nature. I saw him at every single appt starting from my consultation, through my IUI cycle, to my IVF monitoring/retrieval/and transfer. Once I did have my positive pregnancy results, I had some concerns with spotting and cramping. He took it upon himself to email me around 11:30 pm on a Saturday night to give me reassurance and peace of mind to my questions and worries. I was of course happy to move forward to a regular OB as that symbolized a healthy pregnancy and on to the next chapter, but I was very sad to leave his care. Nobody “wants” to go through fertility treatments but since that is my reality, I look forward to working with him when it comes time for baby #2.

Be ready. Once you are in his care... he’s ready to go! He always says “I love my patients and getting to see them. But my goal is to get them in and out the door on to the OB for a successful pregnancy.” He’s not in it for the money. He himself went through IVF with his wife so he understands the struggle. His goal is the help families grow at an affordable cost with quality treatments.

Never once did I feel like I was a check mark on his to-do list. He remembers you by name, details about your situation, your home life, things discussed at the last appt, etc.

For my treatment, the following meds were used. Gonal-F Menopur Ganirelix And a trigger shot.

The nurses were incredible. For example, I had never been under anesthesia before. I was a nervous wreck. When I was taken back, I laid there waiting for the doctor to come in for the retrieval. As I cried, two nurses (one wasn’t even a part of my team but had seen me crying as I walked back) were by my side talking me through each step and one stroked my hair calming me. It was the “motherly touch” I needed in that moment.

Great communication, staff remembers you by name, great bed side manner, and they truly care about your success. They all cheered and gave me huge hugs once we had our positive pregnancy results. The only “issue”, is billing. Which I’ve heard at almost every clinic. With so many patients, it’s not a huge surprise that things happen. But, the two times that there was an issue with billing, I contacted the department and it was fixed right away without any further issue. I’d say it was smooth and not a headache to deal with.

IVF- $4,800 Anesthesia- $300 ICSI- $500 PGS- $1,200 to Amols and $2,000 to the outside lab.

Dr. Amols is comfortable transferring up to 2 embryos.

Dr. Amols is very friendly and such an amazing doctor. Every appointment he did himself and it went smoothly. He answered any questions and always explained what he was doing and everything he saw during the ultrasounds. He's so personable and so easy to get along with.

Don't be afraid to ask questions. He really cares about you and will kindly answer any questions you might have.

He made us feel like we were his only patients. I know he sees so so many people every day but he always remembered us and our situation. Very personable and easy to talk to about anything and everything. Every appointment felt like he remembered exactly where we left off even to the smallest details.

I was on an antagonist schedule. It was male factor infertility so we did IVF with ICSI. 28 egggs retrieved, 16 fertilized, 10 embryos frozen. Currently preparing for transfer.

So so sweet! Every nurse we encountered was so helpful and kind. They were all very proficient in their different jobs.

The clinic is very nice and clean. Every time I walked in I was greeted by name. I never had a long wait time. At our new patient consult Dr. Amols took us on a tour of the facility and showed us the labs. Everything was new and they pride themselves on the best technology. After retrieval they have personal recovery rooms so you don't have to worry about sharing a room with anyone else.

$4800 for the IVF process which includes all ultrasounds, blood draws, retrieval, assisted hatching, transfer, and 6 month frozen embryo storage. We had to do ICSI which cost another $500 billed at a later time. Medications are seperate.

Dr A. Was extremely kind and very open with his own Fertilty issues so I always felt like he understood what not just me but my husband was going through. He was very straight forward but in a caring way. During our miscarriage he took his time to go through every option of treatment and let us have time to process things as well. He scheduled our d&c and he was the physician to perform it. He was very genuine in his care and I felt that he truly was saddened by our loss as well. I also felt at every appointment we have gone to he is always positive and excited to see where we are at. I like that I see him everytime I go and not someone else who may not know my entire history. He is patient and willing to answer any and all questions we may have had or still have.

To be excited about treatment and trust his advice but also do not be afraid to make your own recommendations or talk about things you maybe have in mind for treatment. He is willing to listen and try his best to work around your comfort levels

He was always willing to sit down and answer and questions, he made us feel like he wanted us to conceive and it wasn't just another procedure for him. He was always genuine in times of loss.

He started me on birth control about 4 weeks before my egg retrieval. He wanted my cycle to be in sync with when the retrieval would be. He then gave me a calendar of all my retrieval medications and when to take them and appointments scheduled out for the next few weeks. I was started on 75mg of menopur each morning and gonal f 150mg at night. Then I would go to his office every other day to be monitored and get my blood drawn. He would do the ultrasound and then the office would call later that day and tell me if I needed to increase or decrease my gonal f injection dosage. Once I was about 9 days into the stims part he had me come in daily to monitor more closely. On day 11 I was ready to have the trigger shot and came in the next day to make sure that medication worked and came in the next day after that to have my retrieval. For the transfer I was on birth control again for 3 weeks. And started Lupron 20units. Once the birth control was done I dropped my dosage to 10 units and started estrogen pills 2 pills twice a day: I went in for a lining check and ended up having to increase my estrogen dosage to 3 pills 3 times a day. Then 5 days before transfer he started me on doxycycline and progesterone injections.

They were excellent and always willing to answer questions!

$1500 for testing $4600 for IVF with icsi $3500 for medications $2000 for another transfer

Dr. Amols was amazing! He met with me at every appointment and went over what was happening during the calendar we had and what to expect next. He was very quick at responding to messages and even gave me his personal number when I was worried about upcoming procedures. He knew my husband and I and helped us by relating his past situation to what we were going through. His greatest hope is to help those struggling with infertility just like him and his wife struggled with theirs.

Don’t hesitate going to him, he is personable and will help you get the results you are looking for

He gave me his cell number and would be willing to talk and go over everything. Knew my name and who I was, even when I would see him at other stores.

Dr. Amols helped me get assistance with the cost of my medication and I went on Clomid, Progesterone, and many others. He helped walk me through how to take the medications, the amounts, and possible side effects. When I got preganant, both times, I was on the Progesterone for 10 weeks to make sure my hormone level stayed up. I now have 2 healthy, beautiful girls thanks to him!

I had many nurses work with my through the fertility process. I had Darcy, Brenley, and many others help me understand my calendar and go over medications and procedures. They cared and one was even set to go through the fertility process with Dr. Amols too.

The clinic is beautiful, organized, and efficient. They have lots of staff members that care about you and what you are going through. From the egg retrieval, blood work, embryo transfer, and ultrasounds, the staff was great through it all. I never had a bad experience and wouldn’t change a thing.

I remember that Dr. Amols worked hard to lower the fertility costs. For my egg retriever and first transfer the cost was around $5,000. For the second transfer, I paid around $2,000. The cost for yearly egg freezing is $500.

Dr. Amols will only transfer 2 embryos, at the most. We transferred 1 embryo the first time and got pregnant and then transferred the reminding 2 embryos and got pregnant with one baby.

One thing I loved about Almos was that I saw him every appointment. He would even call on his off hours and talk to my husband & I to explain things further. He never made me feel rushed about a decision. We had a couple hiccups along the way, but he was extremely empathetic. He likes to talk, and he can be blunt. He is a great communicator. He took charge in frustrating situations and always had a back up plan for us.

To be gentle with yourself, this process is a hard one and Almos truly has your best interest at heart. Ask questions when you don't understand something fully and be your own advocate.

He is very informative, takes the time to make sure you are understanding the process and understanding it clearly. He never made me feel uncomfortable for asking certain questions. He is very sensitive and you can tell he truly cares about his patients

I got diagnosed with Premature ovarian failure from Mark Almos. We went over our options and picked to help preserve our fertility first, then work on getting pregnant. We first did 3 back to back IVF cycles, where we retrieved 5 eggs. We then tried IUI & failed. We decided to then go back to egg retrievals and did our 4th and final retrieval, which resulted in one healthy amazing egg. We got a phone call on day 3 from Almos himself stating that he would love to do a fresh transfer because of how great the quality of the egg and my lining were. We implanted on October 25th and got a positive BETA a few days later.

I was in the office every other day, sometimes every day. I grew close to the staff and I felt like they were our cheerleaders. Every time we got positive news they would celebrate with us, anytime we got negative news they would comfort us.

This is a busy clinic, so be prepared to wait to get seen as a new patient. But once you are a patient, you are apart of the family.

Almos is a lot cheaper than most RE's, total I think it came to $17,000ish

Dr. Mark Amols is very empathetic to our situation. He has been very patient and supportive while waiting to treat us. I am anovulatory and Dr. Amols treated me for a couple of months before we could actually start our first treatment. I had a few cysts on my ovaries that needed to be cleared up before beginning treatment. We just had our first IUI last week. I have dealt with many doctors throughout my life and I have never met a doctor who is as concerned with his patients as Dr. Amols. We feel truly privileged to be under his treatment and are optimistic that he will be able to help us get pregnant. Dr. Mark Amols embodies the word -passionate- with his work.

Be patient and trust that Dr. Amols will do everything he can to help you get pregnant.

Dr.Mark Amols has been genuinely concerned with helping us get pregnant. He has thoroughly evaluated our fertility situation and has presented us with all of our options. He is always available to answer any questions we have and makes us feel like we are his only patients.

Dr. Amols suggested we begin with the least invasive form of treatment, an IUI. He suggested this because we were able to get pregnant on our own about 4 months before seeing him, just by taking Clomid. The pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage. All of this occurred before seeing Dr. Amols. His rational was that if we were able to get pregnant only by taking Clomid, we should not have too much trouble getting pregnant again using IUI and improving our chances.

The nursing staff is very knowledgeable on fertility issues and treatments. They execute Dr. Amols' orders very efficiently and are sympathetic to our situation.

Everything is done at this clinic. It has all of latest technology and equipment available. All blood and semen samples are analyzed/processed on site in their lab. Dr. Amols works every single day. Dr. Amols said that's women's fertile time isn't just on Mondays through Fridays from 8am - 5 pm, it can happen at any time and he and his staff are available everyday to meet our needs. I went in on Memorial Day so that he could do an ultrasound and check my follicles. It's very convenient for anyone to be seen at this clinic.

$500 - IUI plus the cost of medications

Mark Amols was absolutely amazing like I said he's very compassionate and understanding and listens there has been other doctors in the past that don't seem to care what you have to say and that's different with dr. Amols he'll actually sit there and listen to you. My husband and him even talked about football so he felt like a good friend and it made us feel more comfortable he was very thorough on what was wrong. And he explained every procedure and medication.

If you want a doctor that understands and that makes you feel comfortable and that actually listens to you go to dr. Amols

I felt like a human with Dr amols because he was respectful and listened. I did not feel rushed. I felt like we could sit there all day and listen to us. I felt like he was hurting with us. He even told us his own experiences with his wife and what they went through. He literally knew what we were going through, which made me feel more comfortable. He was very compassionate when things didn't work out like our insurance not paying he even gave us low-cost options which was pretty amazing.

We first tried Clomid and he explained what day of my cycle I needed to take it and when it was supposed to end and how long it was supposed to last and when I should have been ovulating I also came in and did ultrasounds to check and see if the eggs were maturing like they were supposed to.

Just like dr. Amos it seemed like he picked the right stuff they were all understanding and listened and we're sympathetic I loved the whole staff no issues at all it felt like going to my second home

They are very organized and understanding and sympathetic as soon as you walk through that door they're very welcoming it doesn't feel like you're going into a doctor's office it feels like you're walking into your mom's house or a family member's house it's very comfortable and your nerves is very quick

We had insurance so it paid diagnosis so we just had to pay a specialist fee co-pay which was 30 every visit and then we got told the IVF would be our only option so 4800 was what he was offering which is really good at the time we just could not afford

We never got that far so no comment

Dr Amols is a skilled doctor that I would recommend to anyone going through infertility. Him and his staff are excellent. I always left his office feeling knowledgeable about what I was going to be doing. He takes the time to talk about what he’s doing every step of the way. He always made me feel so comfortable.

Trust in what he says. He doesn’t beat around the bush.

He is a fantastic doctor and doesn’t give false hope. He will talk you through every step of what’s going on and has so much empathy for his patients. I only wish I had unlimited funds so that my husband and I could try for another baby.

I would always start with a baseline ultrasound on cycle day 3. Then I would start the femara and gonal-f. I can’t quite remember what cycle day I would start those on and can’t rwmeber t. Once my follicles matured enough I would do the trigger shot and come in for my IUI 36 hours later.

The were all really nice and empathetic to what I wasn’t going through.

I don’t have any complaints about the clinic. They are all really awesome there. I think the only thing that I would say is sometimes there wouldn’t be anyone at the front desk and I would have to wait for someone so that I could pay my co pay or schedule my next appointment. The clinic is very clean and the whole staff is so nice!

It was significantly cheaper than other clinics. My insurance covered a small portion of the procedure but none of the medication.

He has awesome bedside manner. Very well communicative. I have never seen such a compassionate doctor. He remembers his every patient. He followed his treatment protocol amd our 1st ivf was successful where other doctor told us we have less chance to succeed.

Trust him. Follow his protocol. He knows what he is doing. He has different treatment plans for each patient and with him its never one size fits all kind of treatment. He adjusts his protocol according to patients needs.

He is very empathetic, kind person. Every single time we met, he made us feel hopeful. He knows what he is doing.

My protocol for ivf was antagonist protocol. He increased / decreased my dosages based on every bloodwork they did. i was strictly monitored during my cycle.

The whole nurse team was amazing. Very well communicative, supportive and very reachable. There were times i would freak out on simple matter, they are all very caring and compassionate anout their patients.

No weakness. Strength : good location, beatiful and clean office. Even though they are busy, they try their best to see you at your scheduled appointment time. You just need to show up little earlier than your scheduled time.

For Ivf it was around $5000 Medicine $3500 Embryo biopsy $1200 Iui $750

I decided to go with multiple embryo transfer and it was solely my decision. We did pgs testing and sll our 4 embryos came perfect.

Very caring and works a lot. He always knows who you are and you feel like your his friend not just a patient. My only complaint is that I wish I had more time to talk to him each time since he always made me feel positive and confident.

Make an appointment ASAP they are booked out 9 months.

I talked to other patients and they had different protocols then me which made me feel that I was treated as an individual.

preantagonist with a coflare antagonist cycle with estrogen only instead of a birth control. It made sense why he did it when he told me, but honestly that's about as far as I understood it.

The nurses are very responsive with their clinic app Klara

Strengths - great doctor, nice staff, affordable (we couldn't afford IVF without them) Weaknesses - long wait to get in but then it goes fast, front desk isn't their strong point Useful Information - I am sure a lot of people see them because of the reviews and affordability but what surprised me more is their success rate. Everyone I knew who has seen them is pregnant, that was impressive. I'll be honest I was worried about you know "you get what you pay for".

Compared to the other clinics we went to it was about 1/2 to a 1/3 the cost. We felt like the care was better then the more expensive clinics.

He is a caring and knowlegible dr. He made us understand the process with him and made us feel like we are capable of doing another round. We decided to see him because of the price and the feedback we got from others. He made the appointment more personal and friendly. Was able to talk to him like a friend. Which helped my husband feel more comfortable.

I don't really have any... Just make sure you feel that all your questions are being answered. He will answer any ?

They were very easy going. He talked to us like we were friends not patients. Gave us a sense of comfort knowing we can do this again.

I have not started my next IVF cycle with him. We start (fingers crossed) in April/May. This will be our first round with him. This is not our first cycle. It all depends on the next ultrasound.

they are compassionate and nice. they get back to me immediately with the answer to my ?s.

Very clean office. Nice front desk. I like that every time I have called I have talked to someone. I appreciate it when they transfer a call someone picks up the phone. if someone doesn't have the answer they will find out and get back to you soon. the financial team is helpful as well. I like that they have Kiara so we can text ?s back and forth.

IVF package $4800 PGS biopsy $1200 PGS $2000 ICSI $500 Anesthesia $300

He said if we have 2 good viable embryos this time we will put in both because of my last loss.

Dr. Amols is such an approachable and likeable guy. He also struggled with male infertility, and went through IVF with his wife. My husband really appreciated him sharing his personal story, and connecting with him one-on-one. I once saw Dr. Amols at Costco, and he remembered me and asked how my twins were doing.

Get in for an appointment ASAP! We saw him shortly after he opened his practice, and we were able to get an appointment pretty quickly. Now, he is booked out for months for a consultation.

Dr. Amols has a wonderful bedside manner and remembered us by name. He would make references to previous conversations, which shows that he was listening and remembered us.

We tried three rounds of IUI, and then we successfully did a cycle of IVF with frozen embryos.

We always saw a different nurse. Some of them were very patient and knowledgeable, but some of them seemed a little scatterbrained.

The clinic is very clean and welcoming. We always felt comfortable there. Each treatment room is decorated nicely, and the waiting room was also very open. I am prompted to add more characters, even though my response already 200 characters, so I am just adding more text.

My first two IUI cycles for $500, and my third IUI cycle was $1, 000. My IVF cycle was $5, 000.

Our doctor let us decide. We decided to transfer a boy and girl embryo.

Dr. Amols was nice but he didn’t treat us like an important patient. After the 3 IUIs we decided to change clinics and see someone knew. Dr. Amols barely did any blood work on my and my new clinic did so much testing and found out i was a carrier for CF. Dr. Amols never told me that.

If you are doing IUIs don’t waste your time. They only care about IVF patients and they don’t do detailed testing.

We did IUIs so i didn’t feel as important as the IVF patients. Probably because i didn’t pay as much. He never did blood work on me or checked to see if I was even ovulating. I felt like we wasted $6k on 3 IUIs with him and the staff was never nice and never remembered or checked the charts that we have to use donor sperm and it was a constant reminder because they always made comments that we would use his sperm.

Two cycles with clomid and a trigger shot and the last iui was with Femara and trigger shot.

I didn’t care for them. One girl in particular put me in a bad mood because she just looked unhappy to be there.

Clinic was clean and nicely decorated. The front office staff never said hi or bye or made us feel Welcomed. The first treatment they sent my prescription to the wrong pharmacy and i told them 2-3 which location it needed to be. That was a horrible night running all over trying to get it.

$750 for the iui and $25 for the visits

Dr Amols has great bedside manner. He answered our questions and helped prepare us for treatments! I did feel that he was overly busy at times trying to keep up with his patient workload. Although when he was present he helped put our minds at ease by talking to my husband and I during treatments

Come prepared to every appointment with questions written down. The appointments can feel overwhelming and you may forget to ask questions

When I first started going, I would call with questions and someone would be there to answer or would call me back. The last couple months my calls are returned by a message on a messaging system leaving no room for me to ask additional questions if I thought of others. Some prefer messaging over talking but I prefer to talk to someone.

This clinic is extremely busy. I don’t feel that they have any outside resources available for their patients and spouses or if they do no one offered them to us. The nurses and assistants have been nice but I wish they would return my phone calls with a call and not a message on the office messaging system. With that being said, Dr Amols is a great doctor. He is very personable

$300 hsg .. 750 iui 400 Meds for iui .. 50 for doctor visits .. 100 for sperm analysis each time

As a patient I felt like I had no need to worry. Dr A has continued to make me feel like I (and our future babies) are in great hands. He performed every single ultrasound himself and took the time to explain the process and what to expect every step of the way!

Be prepared to be treated more like a friend and less like a patient

Amazing bedside manner, you can truly tell he cares and is in it to get you your take home baby, not just another number or a pay day like other doctors made me feel

Being that this was my first IVF/ injectable cycle, I had a high antral follicle count secondary to PCOS we went with an antagonist protocol. I started with BCP; as he does batch cycle his patients, which wasn't an issue for me because it meant he was able to be more present and see me each visit. I had no hick ups during my IVF process and his protocol got me a great number of eggs

Strengths of the nursing staff was they all seemed very friendly, and organized. Weakness- would've liked to know to know them personally since that was the down to earth vibe you got from Dr A. Also sometimes you felt like they were being spread very thin and had a lot going on

Strengths- the doctor, feel comfortable, trustworthy Weakness- not much staff for the demand, but they make it work

Approx 6-8,000 for IVF cycle 2800 for medications for IVF cycle 400 for frozen embryo transfer 1200 for PGS embryo biopsy fee

I was educated on the risks of multiples but given the choice to transfer one or two. I didn't feel very pressured either way, but felt very educated on possibilities of both. Dr A has twins via IVF so he was able to give a first hand perspective as well which was nice.
