Your First Visit
Just as there are many factors that can cause
infertility, there also are many factors that can affect your chances for
successful infertility treatment
including age, your personal diagnosis, duration of infertility, and the number
of previous unsuccessful treatment attempts. In addition, chances for your
success will be influenced greatly by the specialist involved with your care.
This important meeting provides the direction for your future care.
You will meet with Dr. Goldstein who will review your medical history,
discuss your options and may even perform an ultrasound and/ or a
physical exam. You will be introduced to Linda, our fertility nurse
specialist, who will help coordinate the testing and will review your
treatment plan recommendations. Finally, our office manager, Michelle
will review your insurance benefits and financial options, and also
provide you with  information
about the cost of treatment.
And it's not just about the woman! Both members of the couple count and together are an important part of the treatment equation. We rely on you to
provide us with complete and accurate information about your history with
infertility and to communicate with us openly while you are in our care. That
is why we strongly encourage both partners to attend the initial consultation.
Please bring your driver's license and insurance card(s) with you.
Whether you are already diagnosed or just beginning to explore
treatment, you can be confident with a patient-centered, comprehensive approach
to diagnosis and treatment.
