Default Not sure who to pick?!

HI!

I have decided to start back with an RE for my PCOS. The GYN is not helping me... just wants to do procedures.! YUCK! My insurance only has 12 for me to choose from. One of which is a PCOS friendly dr.! I just dont know who to pick. I was seeing Dr. Dunn here in Houston, and now he is not on my Insurance.! I just dont know who to pick... I am just scared. I want to have a child... I want to get this PCOS under control.. I just dont know who to see. I am in need of advice. My biggest fear is going to a doctor who doesnt have a clue.. or finding one that I know more about PCOS then they do! ( that is what happened with my GYN) Any advice would be helpful! Thanks!

Kara

Hi!

I have heard great news about Dr. Dunn however since we live 30 miles west of Houston he is too far for me to go to. I was using Dr Timothy Hickman at Houston Ivf however even though his wife has Pcos he isn't a very supportive dr. I have decided to go visit Dr. Michael Allon www.drallon.com. My friends daughter goes to him and she said he is really supportive of Pcos. He is a OBGYN/ RE/Infertility Specialist/ Pcos specialist. My visit is August 5th so I'll let you know what i think. The center sounds great..it has male and female infertility dr's in house and also a nutritionist. Sounds to me they care about Pcos patients. The number to his office is 713-467-4488 ask for Daya in new patient consults. She is very good at answering any questions you may have. Also Dr Allon takes most Insurance except medicare. On the website listed above there is a list under "getting started" of all the insurances they take.

HTH,
Nicole

Sorry to hear Dr Dunn isn't on your insurance any longer. Is anyone in his office still covered? I was seeing Dr Schenk before I moved and I thought she was great.
