This is the most recent data from the CDC. The CDC cautions that it should not be used to compare doctors and clinics. This data represents the outcomes of IVF cycles when using a person's own eggs.
For more information please see our FAQs.
Where you see a “?” on the chart, a clinic has done fewer than 20 cycles in this category and age range, so the CDC says showing percentages from this small data set would be misleading and unreliable.
[Dr. Michael Glassner] Very experienced and skillful. Too bad that I went through painful polyp removal surgery instead of fixing my husbands' fertility problems on the first place. I cannot find explanation why they do not offer serious anesthetics , but instead suggest to take Tylenol pills before performing painful operations...As of today, I wish doctor would point as soon as possible to the low count problem, without scheduling me for 2 surgeries removing polyps
[Main Line Fertility has a] Convenient location, schedule, facility. But I was so depressed for several weeks that this pain was so sharp during polyp surgery, and I had a panic attack because I was holding on until surgery was finished. If now any doctor would try to convince me that I have to do the same procedure in order to get pregnant, I would refuse...they do not offer serious anesthetics , but instead suggest to take Tylenol pills before performing painful operations.

Once only prescribed Chlomid for me, but I was anyway producing enough.
I don't think I even needed it.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff at Main Line Fertility (Prelude Network clinic).
Over all nurses are sweet. But I wish they would be more straight to the point explaining me possible painful reaction during polyp removal. My second surgery was unbearably painful. I took Tylenol, which is useless in this situation. They clearly don't say how bad it could be. No wonder people prefer anastasia. But nobody offered me anything like that.

The [Main Line Fertility] nursing staff has always been polite, competent, and sensitive to infertility issues...Locations, hours, and availability was a strength. Weaknesses-would be posting of prices for treatment in the office. New patients should know that Main Line Fertility is affordable for many treatment options compared to Shady Grove and others.

Everyone is unique, initially-my IUI required a special medal catheter that helped get the sperm where it needed to be. I have good egg reserve and quality, it was a ‘getting sperm’ there problem. That resulted in a successful pregnancy. I am currently on letrozole (5mg) and clomid (100) with a steroid to help give it a little boost. We are now facing a male factor issue that has us potentially looking to different treatment.

Please call your insurance ahead of time to verify codes and coverage. I was under the impression I had coverage for ivf and when I was getting ready for transfer I was told it was not covered that there was a miscommunication between the insurance company and the clinic and that they didn’t cover ivf for mainline and I had to pay for everything out of pocket. I could refuse to pay as I had already started everything with medicine and injection wise and basically was waiting for my retrieval day
