I can never toot the horn of my doctor enough! He is a reproductive endocrinologist but he mentioned to me that he treats PCOS patients that aren't ttc. He's got a great, dry sense of humor, cares deeply about his patients, and is very upfront with the facts. His name is Dr. John Gordon and he is part of Dominion Fertility in Arlington VA. I lived in northwest Washington DC at the time and it took me about a 1/2 to get to him over the Chain Bridge. Not sure where you are so there may be a better way to get to him from where you are.

Good luck!

Genesis 17:16-17 --
"And I will bless her, and I will give you a son from her, and I will bless her, and she will become [a mother of] nations; kings of nations will be from her. And Abraham fell on his face and rejoiced, and he said to himself, "Will [a child] be born to one who is a hundred years old, and will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?"

Hi there,

I go to Frank Chang in Bethesda and he has been great. He calls me back the same day and stays on the phone for all of my questions. He is very thorough and the nurses are nice. I also had a consultation w/ Dr. Gindoff at GW and found him to be rude and he invited two male interns into our meeting without asking if I minded! I highly, highly recommend Chang!
