Feeling hopeful again post consultation with Dr. Norbert Gleicher!

Dr. Barad was and is amazing! He was personable and took the time to get to know us and initiated an interest in our story. He was kind and compassionate. He was transparent, but gentle. Our first consultation with him was a comfortable experience. I wish I would have been able to work with him years ago when we did our first IVF cycle. He helped bring the clarity and closure I needed. I feel very grateful and privileged to get to talk with him. I believe he and his colleague are doing a great work! May God bless them!

My wife said that despite of the fact her 1st IVF at this clinic was unsuccessful, every one was exceptionally kind and made her feel very comfortable. Dr Gleicher was very detailed in his testing and helped my wife discover conditions about herself that other RE's did not. She was happy with her experience.
