Robert Setton

So far we have had a good experience with Doctor Setton. My husband and I liked him from our first appointment and throughout the process he has always been available, patient, warm and knowledgeable. He is straightforward so will let us know the risks and probabilities up front but always in a caring way. He also made the time to call me after important appointments where he was not able to make it in person.

Don't be shy of asking all your questions and understanding the why behind any recommendations/medications.

We first started with IUI and tried 2 cycles but based on the results we decided to move to IVF. For the first IUI I took Clomid which definitely affected my mood and for the second IUI I took Letrozole (did not have any side effects from this medication).

Insurance has covered most of the costs. I do remember that we paid $2,100 for embryo genetic analysis. This is a one time payment despite the number of embryos.

The doctor and clinic's recommendation is to go with single embryo transfer.

Infertility is never an easy journey but Dr. Setton is an amazing physician that does his best to make it "easier." He truly cares about his patients and is extremely easy to talk to about any and everything. He was an extreme source of knowledge, insights, and comfort during our journey and we were blessed to be cared for by him. I highly recommend him for anyone facing a difficult journey.

Don't be afraid to discuss any and everything with him - he is extremely open and no question is too small

I had such a positive experience from start to finish! I’ve already recommended Dr. Setton to several friends. He has a very warm and cheerful bedside manner, and is an excellent physician. His team was in contact with me every step of the way and my results exceeded my expectations. You will be in good hands here!

I met with three different offices (Weill Cornell, Spring, and SGF) because I’m the type of person that likes to be certain I’m getting the best care, and I’m so glad I chose Dr. Setton and SGF. The team is so wonderful, you will be treated like family and in a warm and supportive environment with excellent care!

The costs were coveted by my insurance, but when I initially looked I thought I’d be paying out of pocket and SGF was willing to work with me on the costs.

Dr. Setton was my fertility advocate from the start, even before I decided to officially become a patient with Shady Grove. He always made time to explain every option and answer every question- I never felt rushed in his presence. He made time to call me when he could not see me in person, even if it meant reaching out to me late at night. I felt like a priority- like I had someone who truly cared that I could become a mom someday. He told me at our first meeting that fertility medicine was his calling. A cynical New Yorker, at the time I thought it was a bit hokey. In hindsight, I recognize how true it is and how fortunate the community is to have him as a caregiver.

Ask all the questions you have! And then ask what questions you should have asked that you didn't. There is so much to know and you should never be shy about getting all the facts, big and small.

I came to Dr. Setton after an egg thaw of 21 frozen eggs my former clinic resulted in zero euploid embryos. I was shocked and devastated- I hadn't even known that was possible. I did two more egg retrievals once I started with Dr. Setton. The first resulted in 1 euploid embryo and the second resulted in 7 euploid embryos. I am currently 8 weeks pregnant after my first FET.

Dr. Setton was really helpful. I wanted to move quickly and he made that happen, getting me in to see him the same day as our virtual consult and answering all of my questions. He never made me feel like we needed to rush.

$7500 for the retrieval cycle, plus around $3k for medications, $450 for anesthesia for the procedure, and then $55/month for egg freezing storage.

From the first VC call during Spring 2021 until our graduation day in Fall 2022, Dr. Setton treated us like we mattered so much to him. His honesty, even in the toughest of moments, was always coupled with his unwavering belief in us being able to have our family one day. His warmth and patience made us trust in him. Every communication was detailed, personal and frequent, which always gave us clarity. We are immensely grateful for Dr. Setton for always being supportive, no matter the moment, and for never giving up on us.

My insurance coverage was fairly great. I would pay co-pays for appointments and certain medications. For any procedures or medication that were not covered under my plan I paid out of pocket until I met my deductible or out of pocket costs.

Dr Setton is a wonderful doctor. He is caring, friendly and always gave me hope. He treated me like family. I can not begin to thank him enough for all he has done! I am lucky to have met him.

Always trust his advice. He truly knows what is best.

I had a natural cycle transfer because previous cycles showed fluid at the implantation site
