Vermont Center for Reproductive Medicine

Professional. He was direct and it was not scary. He explained what he was doing and what the course of action would be. It was the first male dr. that I dealt with so far, its good. The change of doctor to vt meant my tests had to be redone and the first cycle had to be skipped because of missed appointments. The test had to be redone. I felt scared but it was fine.

None. I dont see any advice is needed at this point. Im still in the middle of trying to get the IUI process going again.

Still very early. I just went through two tests and three months later... its a long drawn out process with lots of extra visits and seems to take forever but I get the precautions they are taking for my situation.

Most covered by insurance except sperm. That is costly

Dr. Findley has been the most helpful person in our infertility journey. He is compassionate, caring, knowledgeable, prompt and courteous. He has so much information and never rushes us out of the office, answering each question my husband or I have without hesitation or frustration. I honestly cannot think of any "weaknesses" that he has, as he has been a godsend to us during this time.

Please be sure to ask any questions that you have, and don't be afraid to ask about methods or medications that you're interested in. Dr. Findley is extremely open to these conversations and I have absolute trust in him.

Dr. Findley used a multi-faceted approach with my infertility treatments. We utilized medication that is aimed towards weight loss as well as is known to interact in a positive manner with fertility medications. Additionally he made several referrals for both myself and my husband to be sure that we knew the "bigger picture". When one medication didn't work, he moved on to another and when that one didn't work, we utilized both medications together. He did not waste what I consider precious time trying to force a medication to work when my lab results indicated that they weren't working at all. Dr. Findley continues to meet with me regularly as I look at addressing other medical issues that may be interfering with my fertility, as a means to make sure he "knows where I'm at".

The costs were very affordable and the clinic did their best to bill all procedures in a way that was coded so my insurance (who didn't cover any infertility treatment) would pay for them.

Dr. Dundee walked me through everything patiently and thoroughly, from day one. She sat with us in her office and walked through all the potential timelines and explained how our plan may deviate. She was incredibly quick to respond to emails and even gave me her cell to reach out. She was personally invested in our success and made us feel very supported.

She is ready and willing to accommodate to your schedule so you just need to ask and advocate for yourself.

I am undergoing IVF for genetic reasons and do not suffer from infertility. Dr. Dundee placed me on a standard egg retrieval plan with Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) because of our need for genetic testing. I was placed on birth control pills for 3 weeks. I then began 3 weeks of Lupron injections, starting with 20 Units and then decreasing to 10. After 10 days, I began various levels of Gonal F injections for an additional 10 days before my trigger shot and egg retrieval. During my Gonal F injections, Dr. Dundee started me out on a low dose given my lack of fertility issues. She wanted to make sure I didn't hyper-respond to the hormones, which would have put me at higher risk for OHSS. Other than the standard bloating side effects and some bruising/itching at the injection sites on my stomach, I had no issues with my medications. A few months later, we went through a standard process for implantation. I began Lupron with BCP about a month out, then began taking Estrace tablets and applying patches, and then adding in Progesterone almost a week before transfer. I kept up estrogen patches/pills and progesterone shots until 8 weeks of pregnancy.

$7,000 for retrieval, $2855 for PGD/embryo freezing and storage, $3550 for all medications and subsequent embryo transfer.

Since Dr McGee is the head of the department there are many below her that I met with instead and consulted with her. I guess that is a weakness. She was very present for surgery and helped inform my family of all risks.

Dont expect to meet with her on a basic appointment.

Not sure of the protocol. Pain management was based on my comfort.

The total cost of ivf was lower than the country average around 6700. There was no refund if pregnancy was not achieved. 2700 for egg retrieval

Not sure.

Dr. Dundee is very professional. My first appt was a consultation and she was there. I dont see to much of her. I feel as if she is kinda behind doors, I get it. I did reschedule a transfer for after winter. She reached out to me and I appreciated that gesture.

I wouldn't. I think that anybody going through this difficulty of infertility. It's the hardest thing if ever been through. It definitely takes a toll on my body and mind. It's the unknown.

I believe I'm a normal patient she prescribes the meds. I take them, I then get blood test properly to her schedule and they call after to let me know if I have to add or subtract any meds( i believe it was only progesterone or estradiol ) Fresh embryo transfer- resulted in a positive pregnancy at the 6w5d ultrasound there was no embryo inside sac. Frozen embryo transfer- resulted in positive pregnancy but it had dwindled out quickly. I have my next transfer on may 7th and so far so good. I just follow the schedule she has made for me. If I can do it anybody can. Fingers crossed!

IVF $25,000+ Embryo transfer $12,000 All of the ultrasounds were fairly priced.
