Reviews
This session via video link was very convenient (we had just arrived back from holidays that morning with about ten minutes to spare). There were a couple of technology glitches but we managed to steer through these and there was no impact on the concise and clear information provided by Dr Reyftmann.
Dr Reyftmann listened carefully to what I had to say and considered my history thoroughly. I feel safe in his care and trust that I will find clarity and insightful explanations following results from testing. Overall, I rate Dr Reyftmann's services as excellent.
Dr Reyftmann is a kind and compassionate professional, he listens to our concerns and addresses them with thoughtful discernment and provides the best level of care while also guiding us as a couple through some really emotionally hard times and always giving a way forward. Dr Reyftmann found the answer to our fertility issues after years of trying to conceive and we are now blessed with a little boy and are trying for our second child. We now put all our faith in Dr Reyftmann and sing his praises at any chance we get. He is well worth the money for his expertise and his kindness, compassion and connection is a bonus!
Overall I had a fantastic experience! Dr Reyftmann was running a little late and this was communicated prior to the appointment. He explained the procedure thoroughly and was very professional.
I had a fabulous experience with Dr Reyftmann. He was informative but very down to earth and made me feel safe and comfortable. He was able to answer any questions I had, promptly and confidently. Furthermore, I felt Dr Reyftmann genuinely cared about supporting me in achieving my health/fertility goals and determining the most effective route for my circumstances.
Dr Reyftmann always listens and provides you with different treatment options suitable to you
