IVFMD - Jupiter (Prelude Network clinic)

Dr Bauer is such a warm and brilliant doctor. From the very beginning, I instantly felt connected to her. She is very up with modern medicine and developing approaches. She managed our expectations along the way while simultaneously keeping us optimistic. After my first egg retrieval, we only had one viable egg. Dr Bauer explained the pros and cons of continuing but highly encouraged a second retrieval. I didn’t want to do it but glad I did. She was supportive whatever route we chose but always helped us keep the right perspective. On transfer day, you could just feel the love from Dr Bauer and her clinic that they wanted it to work. And with every follow up visit, she kept me well informed on progress, what’s next, etc. I highly recommend Dr Bauer to anyone looking for a fertility doctor.

Trust Dr Bauer and stay off of the forums/websites. It’s very easy to get caught up in forums, internet results, etc. But every case is different and Dr Bauer personalizes every plan to the individual. Trust in her as your Doctor and follow her instructions to a T.

ER #1 and #2 we used Gonal and Menopur. Toward the end we used cetrotide. We had about 20 eggs retrieved both times and 4 viable options in the end after ICSI and PGT testing.

Dr Bauer explained that it’s a lower risk to transfer one embryo and ultimately safer for me and the baby.

My husband and I could not be happier with Dr. Taylor and her practice. She is incredibly knowledgable and has a wonderful bedside manner. She explains everything thoroughly and makes sure that you understand and feel good about the process. Although we only see her a few times during the treatments, I feel like she is following along and keeping track of where we are and how we are doing. She truly cares for her patients and I think that all of her patients feel that!

Get excited!! You have joined a wonderful practice! She will take wonderful care of you :)

Currently undergoing my first round of IUI. The treatment strategy was created around our current infertility problems. Dr. Taylor has pin pointed, as best as she is able, the possible fertility issues and came up with a plan for each one. My husband and I are on different medications and/or supplements to combat certain problems. We have also seen an additional specialist and Dr. Taylor reached out to that specialist and strategized with them before coming to us with a plan of action. She has explained evrything thoroughly and made us feel very positive about our current course of treatment!

For the IUI treatment we are undergoing we believe the pricing to be fair and they accept many insurance policies. All pricing is given to you upfront and someone from their office will call you to follow up and see if you had any questions regarding the costs presented.

No experience with this.

Dr. McCarthy offers exceptional care. She has this warmness to her and I feel like she truly does care about each and every one of her patients. When none of our embryos made it freeze, she was the one calling me with this news and offering comfort. When we had our follow up appointment to discuss what went wrong in our egg retrieval cycle, she was direct but gentle when sharing all our information. I definitely don't feel like just another patient. When in treatment with Dr. McCarthy, she truly feels like a friend.

Trust her. She knows what she is doing.

Due to my diminished ovarian reserve, we did an aggressive protocol in hopes of stimulating the microscopic follicles. Unfortunately, this didn't work. I started with 4 eggs at baseline and had 4 eggs retrieved.

Dr Taylor is an intelligent competent doctor. She explained every step and treatment process along the way. She is compassionate and caring and makes you feel as if you are her only patient. No matter the time of day, if i had a question it was answered. After my first few scans during round 1 of our IVF cycle i requested early morning appointments, however this was before Dr Taylor was in the office. So our scans were performed by the supportive staff at IVFmd, but after being half way through the cycle and not seeing Dr Taylor once since our consult she requested to see us personally and all appointments to be performed by her from then on. She always takes time to speak to you after your scans and labs and you never feel rushed. After our failure of round 1, she seemed to be just as hurt as we were, and helped us come up with a game plan for round 2. Although finances were a struggle she guided us and offered alternatives. She is truly one of a kind.

Prepare yourself for success, with the assistance of a dedicated, determined doctor who puts your wants and needs first.

Dr Taylor started my IVF cycle 1 with a low does of Gonal and Menopur. This decision came along with my diagnosis of PCOS. Dr Taylor wanted to avoid Over stimulating me. During the cycle we watched out follicles grow. Once we had retrieval, i was over stimulating and Dr Taylor performed several follow up scans to ensure I was getting better. Unfortunately we lost all embryos and could not get to a transfer. This time will be different.

My total package that included all necessary medications, scans, retrieval and transfer plus genetic testing of 10 embryos cost $23,000

Dr McCarthy is very good at her job. She is able to balance her expertise, training and education with compassion and humor. She Is great about responding to questions and concerns and is always open to any insight and suggestions we bring to the table. During various procedures, she is wonderful at communicating what she is doing and why. She is very cautious and careful and does a thorough evaluation of all potential variables that may be contributing to our inability to have a baby.

Be patient. She is very thorough and does her due diligence in testing and analysis prior to starting fertility treatments.

Used various protocols for the each retrieval and then for frozen egg transfer. All retrieval’s started with regulating menses with birth control. Then with careful monitoring started adding Follistum, then Menopur, and then Cetrotide. Used HCG for trigger. Another time used microdose Lupron prior to stim start.

I have insurance which would cover some parts of my IVF; at this point I have maxed out my benefits. Medications are super expensive and then all of the labs and tests were as well.

Doctor Mc verbalized wanting to transfer 1 embryo each time and the risks associated with transferring more than 1.

Dr. Joelle Taylor was very knowledgeable and accessible throughout the whole egg retrieval process and now through the IVF process to date. I would recommend anyone I know to use Dr. Taylor for all of their egg retrieval and IVF needs.

nothing comes to mind, my process has been very pleasant

For my egg retrieval everything went very smoothly with all medications and the injections. I am currently undergoing the IVF process and did not get my period in time to start the birth control, so Dr. Taylor's protocol is to start the Lupron and not take the birth control at all.

The egg retrieval cost roughly $12,000. Not sure what the total amount for the IVF is yet.

Together Dr Taylor and I decided that 1 embryo was best.

She is a very educated Dr and follows and stays up to date with research. She listens and is flexiable and really just one of the BEST drs I have ever dealt with in my life. She did surgery on me in 2014 and it was perfect and she was just very helpful and really showed compassion in all of my visits.

Just be honest with her and upfront.

I didn’t do any fertility treatment with Her as I could not afford it, we discussed options for IVF and she did some monitoring and bloodwork for me and surgery on my ovaries on 2014.

Appointments for consults were in the $200-309 range. IVF was going to be around $18k

Dr. Taylor is a kind and compassionate human being. She was very professional and had an excellent beside manner. We appreciated her realistic perceptions and recommendations for our particular situation.

If considering fertility treatments, we recommend a consultation with Dr. Taylor. Once you meet her, you will want to move forward with her.

From what I remember, our approach was to use a lower dose than my previous doctor recommended in order to prepare my eggs for retrieval. We were impressed that Dr. Taylor always referred to the literature for her recommendations. She keeps her knowledge current.

The costs were exactly as expected.

We had one embryo transferred as it was the only viable one.

Dr. McCarthy is a very kind and understanding doctor. We have had a very long journey, and she made us feel like there was still hope. She is very data oriented and monitors you closely. She made me feel safe and reassured me anytime things seemed overwhelming.

Put your trust in her

I am currently doing a stim cycle for an egg retrieval. We are using the same protocol as my last cycle because I had a good result.

18,000 plus medication

Single embryo transfer

She was very easy to talk to. Not judgementel and easy going but educated me all along the way. She really took the time with us. I felt like she was more educated on the latest treatments available.she was extremely knowledgeable on what type of medication that was appropriate for pcos and my certain situation

Trust in her judgment. She is great

BecUse I couldn’t afford another round of ivf. She thought I would have a good chance of being successful with donor sperm and iuis. We did stimulate ovaries but with oral medication instead of injections. Unfortunately, both iuis were unsuccessful

I believe each round of iuis with medium was around 2,000

Dr. Taylor had to increase my medication on the third day of injections and I think it was the right decision based on my estrogen levels. We agreed that I probably should have waited an extra day to trigger.

Have all your questions prepared before the appointment because most appointments are with nurses.

Menopur 300, Gonal F and Cetrotide because I appeared to be a “slow responder.”

My overall treatment cost over $20,000 with all the medications and testing.

N/A

The Dr tells you everything you want to hear but I got no results. She relies to heavily on the staff to provide info she requests and they are not helpful at all. I feel like a number and I am looking for a new clinic.

Waste of money

3 clomid cycles with trigger injection

I have spent thousands of dollars for only 3 failed clomid cycles

Loved her. She was always encouraging and so personable. She gave us our son and I’ll always be so grateful. I wish I could have seen her more during treatment but she was there for procedures and important test results.

Be your own advocate.

I don’t fully remember.

Donor eggs and cycle of treatment

I was a single embryo transfer, as she was concerned what twins would do for my health.

She is not only a wonderful doctor, but also a wonderful person. She exhibits compassion and care for her patients while maintaining a very honest and knowledgeable demeanor. I have recommended her to many of my friends and family.

Don't wait, get in to see her ASAP.

Infertility treatment is a very difficult journey for any couple. Dr. Taylor and her team will provide you with your absolute best chances of success! We are beyond grateful to her and wanted to share our positive experience. Dr. Taylor is highly competent, extremely knowledgeable, and a very skilled surgeon (if any procedures are needed). She individualizes her approach to treatment based on the specific details of each case. Since treatment directly relates to the biology/ natural cycle of the body, she is able to adjust protocol when needed to optimize success. She is confident in her decision making and guides you through each step of the process which is highly appreciated since treatment is stressful by nature. I highly recommend Dr. Taylor.

You will be in very good hands throughout your experience.

dr MCCarthy is kind and has a great bedside manner. She is down to earth and friendly and I immediately liked her. I did have to travel to Jupiter when I thought I would be able to be seen in Viera. So that is frustrating but if it gets me a discount I’m okay with it.

Be willing to travel.

We are still in the planning stages. My husband has done a semen analysis and blood work and I have done blood work and a saline ultrasound and we have our follow up on Friday to see where to go from here. Most likely IVF

So far with Semen analysis and blood work and saline ultrasound and consultations it’s cost $1500

NA

She’s very helpful. Always explains things. She gave me a timeline. She told me specifically that she wanted me to get pregnant by August of 2022. It was nice that she had set a goal for me & made it seem like she was gonna do everything in her power to get me to that goal.

Ask questions! She will answer them for you throughly

Femara CD3-7, trigger shot, & IUI

They aren’t super expensive. I’d say the costs are decent for infertility.

We absolutely loved working with Dr Taylor, she was always so compassionate and caring and she was genuinely so happy for us when we were successfully pregnant. She is both my husband and I’s favorite doctor and we both wished that we are able to stay with her throughout the whole pregnancy! I have already recommended her to family and would absolutely recommend her to anyone with fertility needs.

Don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with her, she’s amazing!

We did IUI with clomid and the trigger shot, fortunately our first round was successful!

Once you visit Dr. McCarthy, you will wish every Doctor was just like her! I cannot recommend her enough, and I am so glad she was part of our journey on growing our family! She is so down to earth and professional, yet SO knowledgeable on all things fertility. Infertility is one of the hardest things to go through, and having a Doctor like Dr. McCarthy that shows so much empathy for her patients makes all the difference. Her approach is letting the patient decide what they are comfortable with and when instead of forcing a plan or jumping straight to IVF. We started off with an IUI after all of our initial testing in 2020. We took a break in 2021 , and then decided to return in 2022 to try again. We started again with 4 medicated cycles, and once those failed we finally turned to IVF. Dr. McCarthy and her staff make the complex IVF process easy and clear to understand, and they are always available for all questions. Our first frozen embryo transfer was successful, and I know it’s because of Dr. McCarthy’s knowledge and care! If you are struggling to conceive or even just want to understand your options, go see Dr. McCarthy at IVFMD! I will forever be thankful for her!

Go in with hope and be clear about your goals! Dr. McCarthy listens to everything and caters your treatment to what you want for your family!

The costs were normal for an IVF cycle, but I did have insurance toward the end.

Since it was my first transfer, she strongly recommended one embryo since the goal was one healthy baby.

When my husband and I had out first visit with Dr. Taylor we knew things would go differently at this IVF clinic than the previous one. She listened to our history, came up with a plan for us, and didn't want to put either of us through anything she felt wasn't necessary. Dr. Taylor was very kind, methodical, and knowledgable about how we could move forward. She already had a plan B in mind months before we were even at that stage. It was very reassuring.

Follow her advice!

Dr. Taylor had wanted us to try IUI before IVF for not just unnecessary financial constraints but also because it was physically and emotionally difficult to go through. She had wanted us to get all of our testing done and wait for my period to arrive before we went through anything. We had to time everything so there was a certain thickness in my uterus as well as give time for my husband to have increased semen analysis. I obviously wanted to start right away but knew Dr. Taylor knew what she was doing and her reasoning behind everything.

They were very reasonable. I was under the impression an IUI would cost $2k but it cost less than half of that.

Dr Nichols is very nice. She takes her take to explain everything step by step. She's always readily available to answer any questions or listen to your concerns. She's warm and friendly and she made me feel very comfortable with my care.

Be ready for things to not always go as plan but be assured that Dr Nichols will not stop and will go above and beyond to help you achieve your goal.

With my treatment Dr Nichols did a single embryo which is what I wanted. She advise that for the safety of the patients she only do single embryos which is fine especially with my advance age

Dr. Nichols was patient and attentive to my questions and concerns, which made me feel heard and supported. Thanks to Dr. Nichols' expertise and guidance, I was able to get pregnant. Her commitment to exploring all options was crucial in achieving this outcome and I am so grateful for the exceptional care she provided me during this journey.

She was compassionate and caring. From day one I was made to feel good. She was always optimistic but also real in her evaluations, she was thorough in making sure she checked everything before coming up with a diagnosis. Even after though she never made me feel less than.

Ask all the questions! She knows all the answers. And just be free to be yourself, she never judges

We never had to do at of the treatment, I got pregnant naturally before we started, but once she found out I was pregnant she kept a close eye on my and my growing baby, and always made me feel at ease and excited after every visit

Nothing seemed over priced for the services provided. I had my copay, and anything expected to be paid out of pocket they were very upfront about the cost ahead of time so there were no suprises

N/a

I would recommend a doctor like him, he is a professional and knows what patients cares about. He goes through every details, I think he is a very nice person as a dr, although I didn’t do too much treatment as I’m still relatively young, I would recommend talking with him and get some suggestions

Get questions ready and don’t be afraid to ask

Like mentioned before, I didn’t do much treatment but I can feel he is a nice person and professional

It was relatively fair

I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Nichols. When no one else could figure out why were couldn't get pregnant, she could. After countless IUI and IVF fails, we got pregnant with her. She is just amazing. I will always recommend her and her team to anyone who is struggling to start a family.

Be as open and honest with her. She will not judge and work with you for the best possible plan. She also keeps you informed every step of the way.

I'm not comfortable in sharing personal information on my treatment. However, any plan or treatment she recommended I 100% trusted and it worked.

It was ALOT of money.

I do not have any information to share
