Review of
talked to Dr fink for my consult...told me all my options and what I could do...helped me figure out another protocol when one transfer did not work...He did one of my transfers and then the nurse practioner did another one...We got 12 eggs, 10 fertilized and 5 made it to embryos. We did the modified natural both transfers
CNY is cheaper because they bring in a lot of people and don't care about the statistics. Because 9f the cheaper prices they are not walking you through all the way...You won't be discriminated against for being older...nurses are busy and they communicate by email through the portal

Describe the protocols Randy Fink used in your cycles at CNY Fertility Colorado and their degree of success.
We got 12 eggs, 10 fertilized and 5 made it to embryos. We did the modified natural both transfers. The second one we did a more aggressive immune protocol with more medicines. The first transfer of 3 days frozen 3 embryos fried and the second 3 days frozen 2 embryos also failed. I am out of funds for ivf so waiting to get more to do another egg retrieval
Describe your experience with the nursing staff at CNY Fertility Colorado.
The nurses are busy and they communicate by email through the portal. I don't know if they have access to previous emails, but it seemed they did not communicate together sometimes. I would get different instructions sometimes so that was frustrating. Most of the nurses were very compassionate though and really wanted a successful pregnancy
Describe your experience with CNY Fertility Colorado.
CNY is cheaper because they bring in a lot of people and don't care about the statistics. Because 9f the cheaper prices they are not walking you through all the way. You do have to research a lot of things. You don't get a protocol until cd1 so for those that like to prepare ahead of time it is frustrating. You won't be discriminated against for being older

I always requested early in the morning so I could go to work afterwards and they were very accomodating
Describe the costs associated with your care under Randy Fink at CNY Fertility Colorado.
Monitoring is a separate cost from the procedure. Egg retrieval is a separate cost from the medicines. There are bundle packages but I didn't do them. I was able to go to different pharmacies to find cheaper meds. I found out about these pharmacies from Facebook groups. Costs are only for the procedures. Any thing extra like infusions cost extra. Beta and post transfer monitoring or blood work costs extra
Describe Randy Fink's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at CNY Fertility Colorado.
My Dr suggested more because of my age, but I made the decision of how many embryos to transfer
