What RE/fertility clinic do you/did you go to? Once I hit my goal BMI, I am thinking about switching. I love my RE but I don't necessarily love the office and I'm not necessarily loving evasiveness to some of my more recent questions.

TIA!!

    I'm sorry she isn't working out. I wouldn't recommend any of the other RE's I've seen. Good luck finding someone else!

    I'm pretty sure I go to your current clinic too, so I don't have any advice.  I'm sorry it's not working out.  Good luck!

    I did brighams too... But since each doctor has a completely different staff, maybe it would be worth switching doctors in the same practice? I saw dr Ginsburg and I loved her.

    And I don't have any personal experience, but I do know that the mgh fertility clinic has the highest ivf stats in the area, so that could be worth looking into?

    ...hello out there!

    I went to RSC NE, its a huge practice so you see a different doctor usually for your ER/ET (I was ok with that b/c my RE can be a bit of a dick...) I see Pang (he's the MFI specialist) but I have heard great things about Pauli. I have also heard fantastic things about Brighams (My MFM is there and I LOVE the practice, so after you have a super successful cycle, then you can transfer over there!)

    Yes, Brighams.  I also see Dr. Ginsburg and I love her!  I have seen a different doctor in the practice there too, and I didn't get the same feeling that I have for Dr. Ginsburg.
