Dr. Denker was very compassionate and never acted as if my questions were stupid. He had pictures and diagrams and made me feel very comfortable. He had me get genetic testing and egg quality testing which made a lot of sense to me and I didn't understand why my first doctor didn't call for those things. Dr. Denker performed surgery on my to prepare my body for IVF (which I haven't started yet) and I had a hard recovery-I don't believe that was any fault of his though.
I didn't love the building the clinic [Palm Beach Fertility] was in-it had weird carpet and wall colors....There were awards on the walls and nice baby pictures and framed articles about Dr. Denker....I loved the nursing staff. I felt like they treated me like a friend and I could tell them anything. They were great with e-mails and phone calls to tell me things I needed to do.... They provided a whole packet about payment plans and insurance options. I didn't love the lady who was supposed to help with information,

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
I would say trust your instincts. I know some people who didn't like Dr. Denker at all but I felt comfortable with him. Ask all the questions you want and don't feel silly! Even if you ask about a fallopian tube transplant lol he won't tell you anything is stupid or crazy-he'll answer you and give you great advice.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
Dr. Denker called me personally on the phone because my gynecologist reached out to him. He was so compassionate and told me he wanted me to come in just to get all my questions answered even if I didn't want to move forward with anything. The nurses were so sweet to me and felt like I could be friends with them.

Describe your experience with Palm Beach Fertility Center.
I didn't love the building the clinic was in-it had weird carpet and wall colors. I think they were renovating when I stopped going to the clinic. There were awards on the walls and nice baby pictures and framed articles about Dr. Denker.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center.
They provided a whole packet about payment plans and insurance options. I didn't love the lady who was supposed to help with information, I just used the packet mostly. It was pretty standard of being around $20,000 total but I appreciated all the information about the breakdown of medication and procedures and everything.

I'm not sure what his approach was. We didn't get that far.

Describe the costs associated with your care under Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center.
We were quoted approximately $18K for one cycle of RIVF and that does not include medication. We have not started the process yet, it is sooo expensive but we are looking into INVOCELL now with Dr. Denker because it is cheaper.

I initially had an iui not knowing hubby semen analysis right until transfer and they were all low quality and the iui was still done. After not falling pregnant he [Dr. Denker] said ivf was our only way.... 4 months went by with my husband on treatment redid his semen analysis and when denker called with results he mentioned trying a few iui if it didn’t work then ivf. Keep in mind he mentioned only ivf would work so why push an iui again.
Front office staff [Palm Beach Fertility Ctr] making first visits come with a fee be known. I thought it was complimentary and when I show up I was being charged. They did waive it due to not being told. I only paid the ultrasound visit.... The office staff has been great. The DR [Dr. Denker] I’m still hesitant on.... I initially had an iui not knowing hubby semen analysis right until transfer and they were all low quality and the iui was still done.
How was your experience with Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
The office staff has been great. The DR I’m still hesitant on. I initially had an iui not knowing hubby semen analysis right until transfer and they were all low quality and the iui was still done. After not falling pregnant he said ivf was our only way. We seen urologist and endocrinologist in hopes that they can help. 4 months went by with my husband on treatment redid his semen analysis and when denker called with results he mentioned trying a few iui if it didn’t work then ivf. Keep in mind he mentioned only ivf would work so why push an iui again. The new results were no better. So I’m a little dumbfounded as to why suggest wasting time and money. I then asked my chances with an iui and he said 4%. If my odds are so low why put someone through that and end in heartbreak.

I had very low AMH levels and low follicle count. He [Dr. Denker] only got 3 eggs for my retrieval. But he primed me and was aggressive with my medication. Out of 3 eggs, I had 2 embryos and am now almost 9 weeks pregnant...Both Dr Denker and his office checked in on me throughout the process, almost daily at some times...My body reacted quickly so I only did 6 days of shots. He increased the menopur shot daily because my retrieval was coming sooner than expected...
My nurses and staff [at Palm Beach Fertility Center] were amazing...they were there every step of the way! When I was doing the priming and the shots, they called me almost every day to check in on me and tell me what medication to take and what my levels looked like. They were very supportive and we’re extremely compassionate...Both Dr Denker and his office checked in on me throughout the process, almost daily at some times...
How was your experience with Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
My husband and I love Dr Denker!! We had wonderful experience with him!!! I had very low AMH levels and low follicle count. He only got 3 eggs for my retrieval. But he primed me and was aggressive with my medication. Out of 3 eggs, I had 2 embryos and am now almost 9 weeks pregnant with a baby!!!
And I found out about him through one of my close friends who did IVF 4 years ago. She was going to another dr and had 3 frozen embryos. She didn’t have a good experience with the other dr and miscarried 2 of the embryos. She switched to Dr Denker to transfer her last frozen embryo. She said she had a great experience as well, and she now has a beautiful 3 year old daughter!!! 🤍 2 success stories with Dr Denker!
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
Keep doing your passion! It is changing family’s lives! We get to have a child when we thought all was lost!
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
Dr Denker understood our goal and put together a game based on our goal and mine and husbands body. Both Dr Denker and his office checked in on me throughout the process, almost daily at some times. And on the transfer day, Dr Denker smiled at my husband and said it went smoothly. It was a beautiful experience!
Describe the protocols Mark Denker used in your cycles at Palm Beach Fertility Center and their degree of success.
He primed me with estrogen patches the month prior. Then we did the shots for IVF. My body reacted quickly so I only did 6 days of shots. He increased the menopur shot daily because my retrieval was coming sooner than expected. He got 3 eggs and 2 were good quality and fertilized. He transferred both of them fresh on day 3. And now I am 9 weeks pregnant with a baby!
Describe your experience with your nurse at Palm Beach Fertility Center. (Assigned nurse: Kari & Irina)
My nurses and staff were amazing! The process was hard to go through, but I felt they were there every step of the way! When I was doing the priming and the shots, they called me almost every day to check in on me and tell me what medication to take and what my levels looked like. They were very supportive and we’re extremely compassionate because they knew that this process is a lot to handle. Also, if I had any concerns, they helped me work through them. Example- the estrogen patches gave me a slight rash so I started my shots a week early.
Describe your experience with Palm Beach Fertility Center.
Strength- make a plan specific to you and your body. Dr Denker has been doing this for a while and knows what is best. The office is very supportive and pleasant! They called me all the time to check in on me.
Weakness- this process is expensive and my insurance didn’t cover it. But you get what you pay for and Dr Denker is the best!

How was your experience with Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
The Dr and its stuff do not seem passionate about helping patients to conceive. They are more concerned about their earnings in my opinion. They had us performed numerous impotent testings; we were paying out of packet, which made matter worst. We did not have the funding. We took out a 20k personal loan with an APR of 17.5% to cover for medical costa. Plus, spending approximately 10k out of our credit cards, which we’re still paying for. They showed no sympathy after we testing negative for pregnancy. I wish we never started treatment with that facility. They charged $300 for a simple 5 minutes phone consultation and $500 for in person consultation... They milked us as a poor family for nothing. Therefore, I would not recommend them to my worst enemy...
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center?
Be mindful of their money, and their medical insurance because we ended with large unpaid medical bills from our medical insurance...

Describe your experience with your nurse at Palm Beach Fertility Center. (Assigned nurse: Kerry )
Compassionate, care, clear; and precise communication.
Describe your experience with Palm Beach Fertility Center.
They are not too bad. They are just in it for the wrong reason in my opinion. We never received a friendly phone call from the stuff after we tested negative for pregnancy for encouragement. Nevertheless, there were tremendous number of calls, and mail: harassing us about embryos storage cost, which is $750 a year... Again, that is an illustration of money seeking Instead of helping patients to build a family.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Mark Denker at Palm Beach Fertility Center.
20k without medical, and resting, plus other cost that they charge themselves. Overall that process cost us more than

No, we would prefer multiple since we are seeking for for twins. However, we are willing to accept what is best for us.

Describe the specific things that went wrong at Palm Beach Fertility Center.
