Dr Edelstein gave me the space I needed and listened to my fertility journey the first time we met. He was empathetic, honest and I really trusted him while he was my doctor. He was open to my ideas and willing to discuss any and all concerns I raised. He used language that was accessible while never made me feel like I was silly for wanting further information. He helped me to make informed decisions and I felt completely supported the whole way through. I cannot thank Dr Edelstein enough.

I had the pleasure of having Dr Sacha as my IVF doctor and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Dr Sacha took the time to explain the entire IVF procedure in great detail, making sure I fully understood every step along the way. Dr Sacha was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and approachable and was very thorough in his communication, ensuring that I was fully informed of all the potential outcomes and risks associated with the procedure. Overall, I felt extremely well-cared for under Dr Sacha's guidance and expertise, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking fertility treatments. He is a fantastic doctor.

Explanation

Dr Sascha explained very well what our options were and the success percentages from the very beginning. He was very understanding when we decided to do some tests done first before jumping onto IVF. And once we started the IVF cycle, he was quick to change my protocol which resulted in a successful transfer and viable pregnancy on my second round. He was very reassuring in our consults, during egg retrieval and transfer procedures. Can’t thank Dr Sascha enough for giving me my first pregnancy.
