2018, Unsuccessful
He [Dr. Redding] always answered my questions. He really cared and explained everything. His staff was awesome and very helpful. He explained all e risks as well. He always explained and did a great job with my surgery. He has a calm relaxed, but straight forward approach. I think you have to understand being a military facility he is limited in options but felt he did a good job with what tools he has to work with... One doctor that was covering recommend 6 iuis, but Dr Redding said 4 was better.
[Naval Medical Center] Not good on answering questions after hours but you can go to the hospital if needed. Staff is knowledgeable and kind. Very helpful and encouraging. Wish they did ivf. They can do iui but not with injectables. I would say major con is the limited options or adjustments they can offer, but major pro is the service is covered all by Tricare except semen wash, which was $240.00... They were all great although not available on weekends. They normally called back within 24 hours.
