Having met Dr. Gleicher for the first time today, I immediately felt at ease with his clear and thorough explanation of my case and individual circumstances. I was impressed that he was already familiar with the fertility clinic I had previously used, which had recently made headlines for its questionable practices. I would confidently recommend the Center for Human Reproduction. Dr. Gleicher and his team are exceptionally professional and deeply knowledgeable, dedicated to helping women achieve their fertility goals.

CHR in New York has a passionate and knowledgeable team, especially Dr. David and Dr. Norbert, who are truly committed to helping patients with complex fertility cases. They are honest and realistic. One IVF cycle may not be enough, and there are no guaranteed quick fixes. The care is excellent across the board, and nurses like Sonia and Maria go above and beyond to make you feel supported and cared for. It is important to know that treatment can be expensive if you do not have health insurance, but if you're looking for a dedicated and experienced team, CHR is a strong choice.
