Dr. Alex Kofinas does not like explaining his protocol or being questioned...Rationales are not really explained He wanted me on lovenox, tacrolimus, prednisone, intralipid infusion, metformin...Because he wouldn’t explain his method, I went to a hematologist for a second opinion on lovenox and was advised against it due to having no clotting issues and a slight bleeding risk
This is Dr. Alex Kofinas’ private practice. I posted in a local fertility Facebook group about my experience and it turned out he’s done this to other women as well...There’s a communication slip up here and there but nothing out of the ordinary, nurses are human
