How was your experience with Sanaz Keyhan at Palo Alto Medical Foundation?
The doctor is nice and shows empathy, but the procedure and treatment at this clinic are very routine. If you don’t have inflammation or other medical issues, this place might work well for you. However, if you have conditions like mine, I recommend treating those first or seeking care elsewhere. Otherwise, you risk wasting your insurance limits here.

During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Sanaz Keyhan at Palo Alto Medical Foundation?
My experience during the first three timed intercourse (TIC) cycles was somewhat frustrating. Despite attending the clinic for three cycles, I only saw the doctor twice. During this time, my egg development was slow, even with the prescribed 1 tablet of Letrozole. It wasn't until the third cycle that the doctor recognized that the dosage was insufficient, and only then did she adjust my prescription to 2 tablets for the next cycle. Additionally, I have endometriosis, a condition known to cause inflammation. However, I was informed that there were no medications available to reduce this inflammation, which I later found out is not accurate. This experience has left me questioning the level of personalized care I received.
Describe the protocols Sanaz Keyhan used in your cycles at Palo Alto Medical Foundation and their degree of success.
1 tablet of Lectrozole for three cycles of TIC
then 2 tables for three cycles of IUI
Describe your experience with Palo Alto Medical Foundation.
This clinic is well-suited for routine procedures, offering convenience and accessibility. The staff, particularly the nurses, are very friendly and attentive, ensuring a welcoming and supportive environment. One of the significant advantages of this clinic is its extended hours, as it remains open on holidays and weekends, which is highly convenient for those with busy schedules or unexpected needs. However, it's important to note that while the clinic excels in routine care, those with more complex medical conditions, such as inflammation or other underlying health issues, might find the treatment options here somewhat limited. In such cases, it may be more beneficial to seek specialized care elsewhere to ensure that your specific needs are thoroughly addressed. Overall, for standard procedures and general care, this clinic offers reliable service in a convenient and patient-friendly setting.

Describe the specific things that went wrong at Palo Alto Medical Foundation.
I tested for an LH surge and promptly informed the clinic, expecting a call to schedule my IUI. However, no one contacted me. When I followed up, I was informed that only one time slot was available for the IUI, which was very inconvenient for my schedule.
