Review of
She [Dr. Beltsos] was a great doc. With her, I got nearly twice as many eggs at retrieval compared to my prior doctor. Very informed. Very kind. Up to date. Not sure if a lot could be changed about our embryo outcome though ...She spoke to me and my husband intelligently. Very warm person...Androgen priming. Poor responders protocol. Growth hormone. 750 follistim for 3 days, then weaning of follistim and adding Menopur.
[Vios Fertility Institute] Parking. Convenient location. Clean. Friendly. Very efficient. Never had to wait long for an ultrasound or blood work. They were always able to get me in quickly. Could schedule around my work schedule...[nursing staff] Very informed. Never had to wait long for a response....She [Dr. Beltsos] was a great doc. With her, I got nearly twice as many eggs at retrieval compared to my prior doctor.

Review of
She [Angeline N. Beltsos] seemed very knowledgeable. We tried many different approaches until one worked. She is very friendly and has a good bedside manor. As a woman, I felt very comfortable with her...Treatment wss individualized for me, and I vent that everyone I interacted with cared about me and my results... I liked her enough that I followed her when she left to start her own practice...Sometimes it was hard to get a hold of someone later on if I forgot to ask something in the moment.
It's [FCI - Chicago] a big place with lots of patients. Be prepared to wait with a lot of others. They are fairly efficient at moving people along through their appointments despite how many purple are there...Come prepared with questions! Sometimes it was hard to get a hold of someone later on if I forgot to ask something in the moment...About $12,000 for an IVF cycle not including medication............

No comment really. I had unexplained infertility and her recommendation was to transfer two embryos for our best chance of success.

Review of
Got a successful outcome [with Dr. Beltsos] so we are grateful for that but the experience overall wasn’t positive. Too big of a practice to provide the care that should be taken in situations like this. Confusing instructions, lack of information on what to expect and what would come next...Know you will be treated as a number and expected to give endless hrs to managing the logistics of your treatment
FCI does not always take a personal approach to their patients. Too big and too impersonal. Support staff was rude and uncaring at times. Highly disorganized with paperwork, process, medicine ordering, etc...She [nurse] was good, but we could never get in touch with her (as evidence we don’t remember her name). When we got her she was helpful...Strength: successful outcome, good hours , quick check-out Weakness: impersonal, expensive, disorganized, long wait times, no consistent communication, bad project management, disorganized medication process

Dr. Beltsos has a wonderful bed side manner and was willing to look into some concerns I had that my previous clinic would not. Because she was flexible with treatment I was able to be treated for those issues and finally have a successful cycle....I rarely saw Dr. Beltsos and the monitoring was like a cattle call...[The staff at FCI was] awesome! Very compassionate and never made me feel like I was dumb or taking up their time if I needed questions answered. I never felt rushed by them.

Review of
She [Dr. Angeline Beltsos] was always very kind, spoke to me by name, and took a lot of time with me during each appointment. She was very personal.... For the first cycle with her we did medicated iui with clomid, follistim injections and trigger shot. That failed. For the second cycle we just did clomid, trigger, and time intercourse. That failed as well. For the next cycle she switched me to femara, trigg t and TI because clomid seemed to be thinning my lining. That worked.
It’s [Vios Fertility Institute-Chicago] dr beltsos clinic so everything I said about her and her staff applies here. I loved everything about this clinic. The doctors, nurses, location, hours. Everything worked really we it’s a well oiled machine... They [the nursing staff] were always friendly and always willing to answer my millions of emails. They were genuinely happy for me when things worked out. They knew what they were doing
How was your experience with Angeline Beltsos at Kindbody - Chicago (formerly Vios Fertility Institute)?
She was very thorough about everything. Very caring. We hit the ground running right away. She really does want to see everyone succeed. No one wants to have to see a fertility doctor, but I’m glad I got dr beltsos

Overall, Dr. Beltsos has been kind and considerate during my process so far, I would have like to see her more. But, I understand she had emergency during my egg retrieval. Her staff has been amazing with me and answering my questions...Dr.Beltsos was kind, caring and concerned...they were only able to retrieve 2 eggs which 1 was able to be fertilized
the overall staff [at Vios Fertility Institute] was amazing attentive, thoughtful and caring to all my needs....The portal and phone system needs improvements. The staff did an amazing job with caring and reach out to answer questions. They're kind and considerate which is needed...Even though an error was made, the clinic done a wonderful job making it right. The paperwork being lost was do to portal problems
