Dr. Mor is very knowledgeable. After much research in my years of unexplained infertility, I feel like I understand some, not all, of the medical terminology; if I am not following what he is saying, he will repeat it and sometimes explain it in a different way without even skipping a beat. He remembers me, my chart/history, and my concerns. He will recap previous results and give his recommendation for next steps. As I said previously, when he recommended injectables, I was hesitant and he changed the medication recommendation to fit my comfort, which was oral Clomid. I never felt uncomfortable or embarrassed with him even though I am not used to male doctors. He explains next steps with realistic expectations, which are somewhat low, and yet always leaves with positivity. As a patient, I am glad I chose him for a doctor who was recommended to me by various fellow facebook friends in my facebook groups. His office location is further and convenient, yet I would not change doctors if I don't to.

With my recommendation to see Eliran Mor, I would tell that prospective patient to be prepared for some truths. Dr. Mor doesn't sugar coat anything. You will have to appreciate where he's coming from and his reports, analysis, and professional history will determine your chances. He will tell you frankly that your numbers are lower than preferred. He will tell you statistically, that your chances due to your age, or ovarian reserve, or sperm analysis is a low percentage. He wants to help you against all odds though so trust in him and keep hope.

During the first consultation appointment, we agreed to start fertility treatment with IUI. I was 37 years old with a history of endometriosis. He did offer different routes and told me IUI or IVF was more common. Due to my age and husband's low morphology, he offered IUI or IVF. I was hesitant to start all the medications for IVF so quickly, so we decided to do an IUI. I was in the middle of my cycle and he calculated that I would be ovulating within the next two days. He offered to do an transvaginal ultrasound on the spot and to prepare an appointment for IUI two days later. We redid an STD test and sperm analysis for my husband and STD test for myself prior to IUI day. We were both negative on STDs and husband's analysis showed healthy yet low morphology. This IUI was successful and resulted in baby. I did not see him again and started to see my obgyn until the loss of my baby at 19.5 weeks gestation. I returned to see Dr. Mor several months after the loss and he had been in communication with my OBGYN since the loss. They were trying to determine if it was a chromosomal issue or other. Since I did not have an autopsy done, it was not determined but due to my family medical history, it was likely a rare occurrence and not due to genetics. We proceeded with another IUI, since the first was successful. The first ultrasound was done one day 2 or 3 of my cycle to check for cysts and determine a baseline. He also counts the follicles on both ovaries. One week later, around day 10 of my cycle, I see him again for another ultrasound. He counts the number of mature follicles and gives instructions for timed intercourse at home. Three days later, around cycle day 13, was the IUI date. After the sperm wash, the fresh sample had 17,000 mobile sperm. Dr instructed timed intercourse that evening. I did blood test to test my progesterone level seven days later. The results were lower than he preferred and prescribed progesterone to be taken vaginally, twice a day, until I receive a negative pregnancy test. I did receive a negative pregnancy test and was instructed to call with my next cycle. The following month was my third IUI. It was the same protocol, with trans-vaginal ultrasound at cycle day 2 but this time we agreed to Clomid. He had given me choices of oral Clomid, Clomid with injectibles, or injectibles. He explained that the more aggressive, the medications, the better the outcome for mature follicles hence higher chance of conceiving on of the multiples eggs produced. I opted for Clomid only because I was hesitant about the aggressive injectible medication. I started a five day prescription of 100mgs/day of Clomid and had timed intercourse the day after. I was to do a HCG trigger shot in my abdomen 36 hours before the IUI. The IUI was on cycle day 13 and just as a precautionary measure, was taking progesterone vaginally until a negative pregnancy test. Due to my low progesterone count during the last cycle, we just did this as precaution. This IUI failed and I had negative pregnancy test. Last month was my fourth IUI. It was the same procedure and protocol with the same Clomid Rx, trigger shot Rx, and progesterone Rx. It resulted in a negative pregnancy test. This current cycle, I saw the Dr. for a baseline and he prescribed Clomid at 150mg/day for 5 days unmonitored. We will try at home this cycle and wait for our chance at IVF. His office is allowed to conduct business for all those in the middle of their treatments and those who are at high risk. We have been trying since 2017. Our next step in fertility treatments is IVF in hopes that I can deliver a baby before I turn 40.

The cost for initial consultation is $325. Water ultrasound $450. Ultrasound $235. IUI $525. IVF approx. $23,000 including medication. Each IUI cycle was two ultrasounds and IUI cost. Including prescribed medications of clomid and progesterone and HCG trigger shot, was around $1,200. Medications were prescribed but not purchased from this office. Prescriptions were distributed and paid for my pharmacies.

Dr. Mor said with the medication, he is hoping to harvest eight eggs, of those fertilize four of them. After genetic testing, I will have two left for transfer IF it makes it past day 5.

Dr. Woo is amazing. She always makes me feel comfortable during my visits. She always keeps me informed of my follicle numbers and keeps me updated. Dr. Woo is very genuine and truly cares about her patients.

The more questions you have the better. Dr. Woo will happily answer all questions thoroughly.

My first cycle I took clomid 50mg twice a day between days 2-5 and another 50 mg once a day from days 7-12. I triggered with the ovidrel trigger shot and had my iui 36 hours after I triggered. Unfortunately, that cycle failed and I am on the the next.

Each office visit cost 250$. I need 2-3 depending on my follicle scans. The iui is 521$ Clomid is roughly 30-40$ and my trigger shot is 233$ all costs are paid out of pocket and unfortunately, my insurance does not cover.

Dr. Mor is very nice and encouraging. He always greets us with a smile and a handshake. His bright smile always keeps me going, even when I'm not getting the best of news. He always asks if I have any questions, and is willing to talk me through any of my concerns/questions.

Knowledgeable and honest and efficient, he was able to accommodate my timeline and start right away, he answered all my questions and concerns. Clinic has great opening hours. Overall a great experience with the doctor.

Do your research and be open about your desired outcome, he will listen

Menopur and gonal f

Everything was great

I found Dr Mor to be a smart and skilled physician. He is up to date with research and uses a data-driven approach, although his intuition and experience are also top notch. He takes time to answer questions thoroughly and isn't annoyed by input or having to explain complicated things to someone without a medical degree. He is also a kind and compassionate human being who really seems to understand the heartbreak and yearning associated with this journey. He showed us such generosity and warmth when we explained our financial limitations and helped us find options that worked for us. We are working on our second with him and he seems as invested in us getting pregnant as we are. I cannot put into words the gratitude and comfort I feel having such an excellent doctor on our side--and that's how it feels, like he is on our side. I have a pretty significant fear of all these procedures and Dr Mor provides reassurance and instills confidence. We only had to do iuis to conceive our first, but have had to move on to IVF this time. There is literally no one else I would trust to do my egg retrieval. I have always appreciated that when I have had to call him after-hours, he calls back promptly and personally. It is very difficult to go back to "ordinary" doctors after experiencing such a high level of care and wish we could have continued in his care until the delivery of our baby.

Dr Mor is compassionate and caring. He takes a real interest in helping you achieve your goals. There is no “one size fits all” approach. He celebrates your victories and comforts you thru your losses. He is a genuine doctor and never makes you feel rushed.

Ask questions. Dr Mor will always make time to answer them. He never makes you feel like your questions are silly.

Flare protocol both times. Lupron, Follistim, Menopur. The first round I had 10 eggs retrieved. One normal embryo, which produced my daughter. Second round same protocol, 7 mature eggs, 3 embryos, one normal. This round did not result in pregnancy.

Only had one to transfer each time

Dr. Mor is amazing. He is kind, caring, super knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. I always felt like he knew what he was doing and I trust him completely. I always felt like he had my best interest in mind. Even though I have not yet been successful, I remain hopeful under his care.

Don't be afraid to hear the truth about the likelihood of conceiving with your own eggs, etc.

I think the protocols Dr. Mor prescribed for IUI, retrivals and transfer were all pretty standard.

I don't remember. But when I compared the costs online, they seemed reasonable.

I only had one viable embryo to work with so this was not an issue in my case.

Dr Woo was kind, compassionate, and straightforward. She helped us understand every aspect of the preliminary testing and what various options entailed. She was engaged with us at every visit, and remembered us when we transferred from her kaiser practice to her regular clinic.

None needed

Have only done two rounds of IUI; the first was using the standard clomid; estrogen was added to bulk my lining, and as the first IUI was successful we followed the same protocol for the second IUI. Unfortunately the second one was not successful; still haven’t started round 3 but hope to soon.

Iui procedure itself was about $550. Still waiting on insurance to determine costs of the monitoring ultrasounds. Meds about $200.
