She [Dr. Ambartsumyan] is very warm and caring, takes time to answer all questions... She is great, I would highly recommend her. Very warm and caring, flexible and willing to try any desired treatment options you want. She works with you and makes you feel like you have a say in your treatement... Keep her cell phone number, easiest way to contact her... For FET I did endometrin and estrace, with weekly monitoring
Sometimes hard to communicate with, especially over email. No patient portal or other online means of communication, which isn’t ideal. Would prefer to be able to email and see results online rather than always having to call in/wait for calls back... When trying to schedule surgical procedures I was given conflicting information by the nurses [Reproductive Partners Medical Group] that resulted in an additional two month delay

She [Dr. Gayane Ambartsumyan] is motivated and personal when I come in. She is detailed with protocol and easy to get ahold of if needed...My lining took forever to grow and Dr A was patient and answered my questions. She assured me that we will get to that moment...She makes you comfortable...Looking back in my history, Dr.A saw I responded naturally to clomid with an iui
[Reproductive Partners Medical Group] Nurses have a portal to talk to. They always answer my questions. They never have let me down with that...Communication from the front office and nurses did a little help...Your not going to your doctor every time . They now have physician assistants that work with you and connect with the doctor . She is the middle man. Their are more then one dr at RPP but I wrote on my chart Dr A only . Ultrasounds I don’t mind her not doing but she does the big stuff with me
How was your experience with Gayane Ambartsumyan at Reproductive Partners Medical Group (Ivy Fertility Network clinic)?
I intially went to reproductive partners to see Dr. A. Years back we had a consult for iui and never worked out due to timing . I went back and dr A had time off for personal reasons but I stuck around five iuis until she got back. When she came came back we had a consult and started my first egg retrieval. I was very happy with my results. She recommended ICSI and pgt testing. I had five normal embryos ready to transfer. My lining took forever to grow and Dr A was patient and answered my questions. She assured me that we will get to that moment . I got pregnant but my beta went down and my hcg levels went below 5. Just now was I diagnosed for endometritis and are on antibiotics until it’s gone for the next cycl.

Describe the protocols Gayane Ambartsumyan used in your cycles at Reproductive Partners Medical Group (Ivy Fertility Network clinic) and their degree of success.
For egg retrieval we used gonal f, menopur and ceteriode. To thicken my lining we did estrace but we knew my body didn’t accept that estrogen. Looking back in my history, Dr.A saw I responded naturally to clomid with an iui. I took two rounds of letrozole One delestrogen injection every four days which got my lining to 7mm. Continued with progesterone oil injections with alternating delestrogen injections. Then we did the frozen embryo transfer. Continued poi.

[Dr. Ambartsumyan] is great at explaining things during consultation but she is only available on certain days so depending on patient schedule thats who ever is available then. So I was seen by a variety of other Dr.s. but Dr. A was the initial Dr. I was assigned to...I switched to Reproductive Partners to be able to try a few cycles with Famara/Letrozole. I did 3 cycle 2 with IUI and last cycle with injections all results no negative pregnancy test.
The nurses [at Reproductive Partners Medical Group] are very direct no sense of compassion. They have too many patients at once its hard for them to really make connections when they are chasing a Dr. with a laptop to document the results and plan of the visit. Accounting staff is quick to ask for co-payments but will not provide details to the out of pocket cost of procedures and the insurance claim

[Dr. Ambartsumyan] is very thorough with her discussing regarding results, explanation of procedures, and the course of action and plan. Every time I leave her office I am feeling confident with the guidance and procedures...IUI medicated with clomid and no trigger shot, natural ovulation. Round 1 was 100mg and round 2 was 150mg and a trigger shot.
I think that the [RPMG] clinic is overpopulated. This affects the quality of recognizing patients, their cases, procedure times/ wait times can be very long, and there isn’t a clear enough discussion regarding costs of procedures. We just get handed a paper for check out and because I am private pay I just wait and see what that day costs me. You must pay before you leave for everything in fully

We first met her [Dr. Gayane Ambartsumyan] through a Zoom consultation as we live out of town. She was then on vacation for a few weeks so we didn’t meet her in person right away. She is very nice and doesn’t rush things which we appreciate. We are still mid cycle and don’t have results to share...She’s a great fertility doctor...Novarel, gonal f, menopur, omnitrope, cetrotide, estradiol and birth control
A strength is the amount of [Reproductive Partners Medical Group] staff and wait times are usually pretty low. A weakness is when you just miss a phone call you still have to leave a message and be called back. I wish every result was uploaded to the portal for review...We first met her [Dr. Gayane Ambartsumyan] through a Zoom consultation as we live out of town.
