Describe the specific things that went wrong at University of Michigan Center for Reproductive Medicine.
The nurses at my husband's clinic which is the same offices but different doctors told him that he couldn't get his procedure done and we would have to wait three months.. This delayed us a month behind schedule.. Only to find out from my doctor that he was good to go and that there was no communication to my doctor about this. It was extremely frustrating because we wanted to start right away.
