Hi - I had a consult at both RSC and Boston IVF. I had a bad experience at Boston IVF so I went with the RSC I saw Dr Pang and he explained everything with out talking down to us. The also have satelite locations where you can have most of your monitoring and consults done. I loved them! Good Luck!

I am doing my 1st IVF cycle at RSC. I had my egg retrieval on 9/30 and due to OHSS had to cancel my transfer but RSC is a great place, the people are really nice, my Dr is Dr. DiGerolamo, I met her at my consult and she was super nice. My best friends goes there also and she had Dr Samuel Pang, I think he is the 'head honcho' there lol. She loved him! Dr wang, did my retrieval, because it was on the weekend and DiGerolamo wasn't there, I still have all my care done by my RE at Umass Memorial in Worcester, my RE speaks very highly of RSC.
I hope that helps!

I don't know about Dr. Ania, but I know there are several offices where they see patients. Dr. DiGerolamo (my Dr) first saw me in Westborough, but the main office is Lexington.
Are you going there for your ultrasounds and all your care throughout the cycle?? I go to my RE in Worcester for all my general IVF cycle care, so I only go to Lexington 2 times, for egg retrieval and embryo transfer, so it depends.
I live about 50 minutes from Lexington, it is a hike, but not too bad.

My RE in Worcester said that not one Dr at RSC is better than the other, they all work together for the best care for the patients! I was also nervous about having to 'choose' one Dr over another. I would say go with what is closer to you, you can always request another Dr if you find that this one is not a good match for you!

Thank you Alisha
I dont know what they suggest me .... I am trying since 6 months only and I think they will not suggest me for IVF directly ...... what you say?
They give us clomid or any other medicine to conceive ,,,,,,,,,,, as I have PCOS .
you also have the same problem?

I've been TTC since 2003, I started with Clomid, I think that is usually the first step, depending on the reason you are needing help.

I started on Clomid, then moved to injectables and IUI, and I've had 3 miscarriages, and they are not sure why, so they suggested IVF so they can see if there is a problem with my embryo's.

I hope Clomid does the trick for you!
