"This was my first IVF experience and it sure was a special experience. Dr. Barad, Dr. Gleicher, Sonya, Maria and the rest of the staff were beyond amazing and attentive every step of the way. They genuinely wanted the best for me and I never felt overlooked. My first egg retrieval and transfer were a success and I’m so grateful for this healthy pregnancy! They are truly the best."
"Unfortunately, I have had to deal with infertility for 7+ years and have been with 4 different clinics. CHR, Drs Barad and Gleicher, and the entire staff have been nothing short of kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and professional. This clinic is 2.5 hours from us, so it was a big decision to travel out of state for care; but I am so glad we made the decision. We’re still in the thick of it, but I feel comfortable and confident with my treatment plan."
"Dr Gleicher and Dr Barad are amazing! They have helped me with a successful pregnancy in the past and I’m seeking them out again for help with a sibling for my son. I’ve been to numerous fertility offices and CHR is the only one to actually search for a reason for my infertility. I highly recommend them!!"
"Dr. Barad helped us every step of the way to our miracle love of our lives daughter. I give him my highest recommendation. He was patient with me through it all ( and I was quite emotional and nervous ) with my very difficult diagnosis of premature ovarian insufficiency. His bedside manner got me through every step of the journey. I truly love Dr. Barad and can’t thank him enough for all the kindness, patience, and professionalism he’s given to me and my now family of 3. He is the best Doctor in the universe!!! I can’t thank him enough!!! But I can assure you, he is the BEST!!!!!"
"Dr. Barad has elegant solutions to medical issues and is a skilled practitioner."
"Dr. Gleicher is fantastic. He’s the most cognitively flexible doctor who has ever treated me. If one thing doesn’t work, he tries something else until he finds the solution and right fit. He never minimizes anything I communicate about my body- he may not have an explanation immediately, but that doesn’t stop him trying to address my issue. Dr. Barad is also wonderful, has a great bedside manner and is incredibly knowledgeable. I trust them both completely. They already helped me have one baby and now I’m back for transfers of the embryos they so insightfully recommended I freeze 5 years ago. I’m very thankful for what Drs. Gleicher and Barad and the rest of their team have done for my family."
"I have been with CHR since 2018. I came in for a second opinion when my last fertility Dr advised I would need to consider egg donation. I was devastated. When I consulted with Dr. Gleicher on 12/5/2018 he told me you will get pregnant with your own egg. I left positive that I was going to get pregnant. He got to the root of my infertility which the previous Dr did not and managed my treatment to my need. 2/3/2019 I went in for retrieval 2/7/2019, transfer on 2/19/2019. I was pronounced pregnant & on 10/19/2019 my baby girl made me a mommy. Because of Dr Barad & Dr. Gleicher I have been blessed. I am now back for my second & the experience has been the same even with a bit more complications now that I’m a bit older. Dr Barad is a gem he makes you feel so secure & makes you feel like everything will be ok. I have referred 2 friends who also had success with CHR & I will continue referring all woman who want to be a mommy but just need a little help & specific treatment to their need. CHR does not give up on you!"
"Dr. Barad is patient and caring and takes his time explaining all processes. He is very thorough in his practice and the medical practitioners such as Huina are also very helpful."
"The best hands down in care knowledge positive energy and the best in treating hard cases of infertility… I look forward everytime I come into my appointments. I know I am in the best hands. Highly recommend CHR and Dr Barad!"
"Those two doctors dr. Gleacher and dr.Barad are THE BEST!!!! High level professionals, smart, care. God bless this two doctors!!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 For me was important after two IVF fail, transfers to find someone who really wants to help me to get result and care. I would like to find this clinick in the beging of my fertylity jorney. I found a lot of difference from another place. and It's day and night. Also team of this clinick is amazing. I gratefull for every body who is working there(Aliyah, Monica, Ludmila, Anne) everybody who was intouch with me was professional and knows what they doing. Your personal nurse all IVF cycle will navigate you, help you, answer for a lot of questions. Thank you!!!!💐💐💐💐"
"My husband & I had an initial consultation with Dr. Barad, and were blown away by the time he spent with us & care he put into our conversation & next steps. For the first time in a long time on our infertility journey, it felt like someone actually heard us & our concerns. He's already suggested some new approaches we can take towards having a healthy pregnancy, that no other doctor ever mentioned, and we've been at this for years! The peace of mind & hope he offered alone were worth it. Would highly recommend."
"Love Dr Barad! He is super kind and knowledgeable!"
"I can’t stress this enough, there’s NO BETTER HANDS TO BE IN! Caps for emphasis. I am grateful every day to have Dr. Barad in my corner."
"Dr Barad was great. Easy to talk to and caring."
"I can’t imagine how I would be able to carry on the journey without Dr Barad. If women on ivf, battling with both physical and mental challenges, are warriors, then Dr Barad is the one there to warm up your icy armor with great kindness. Dr Barad is extremely sophisticated, yet extremely humble. He took time to walk me through a comprehensive case review and provided thorough explanation to every question ever raised, which is in my experience a lost art in nowadays medical field. Having Dr Barad and the CHR team on my fertility issue is the silver lining. God closes one door while opening another one - in that door tall stands invaluable Dr Barad, and love and hope. I would highly recommend Dr Barad to anyone who is seeking ivf solution."
"Dr. Barad is the best doctor of all times. I was a very emotional patient going through my infertility issues and he handled everything I needed with the upmost of professionalism and the best bedside manner there could possibly be. He helped me bring my beautiful daughter into this world and I will be forever grateful for all of his kindness and his efforts to help me become a Mom."
"I'd recommend traveling from whatever state or country you live in to receive care here. The level of expertise, care, tact, kindness and professionalism is just that high. I personally did and I've been extremely happy with the care I've received from Dr. Barad and the nurses. Wish I had found their office first before wasting time at other fertility clinics."
"Dr. Barad was very thorough when taking my medical history (much more than any prior REI that I’ve seen). He provided me with an overview of the clinical trial that I am eligible for and also with recommendations at the end of my visit."
"Very friendly, knowledgeable and open minded with a very positive yet realistic approach. Highly suggest Dr Barad and his team."
"My experience at CHR was nothing short of amazing. Dr. Barad is so kind, and knowledgeable. He makes you feel so important, and never like a number. The entire staff at CHR has got it figured out. Everyone has their jobs, and do them exquisitely. I loved getting to know all the front staff and nurses. Everyone is so sweet, and helpful. If only every fertility clinic was like this! CHR and everyone there will forever hold a special place in mine and my husbands hearts! <3"
"Doctor Barad is incredibly patient,caring, and has the best bedside manner you could ask for."
"Dr. Barad is so thoughtful and caring"
"I am so glad I decided to pursue treatment with Dr. Barad. He’s one of the most caring and compassionate physicians I have ever encountered, and this is saying a lot because I am a physician myself. Too soon to test if I’m pregnant yet but I know he has helping me do everything possible to achieve my dream of having a baby. I cannot recommend him more highly!"
"Love Dr Barad he makes you feel so secure and Dr Gleicher is about dedicated treatment to your need."
"Dr. Gleicher, Dr. Barad experience in the field is remarkable. I still trust that my baby(ies) will be brought to life and will be thanks to them."
"Dr. Barad is very professional, focused, and caring. He and Dr. Gleicher make an excellent team. I feel like they're really paying attention to my case and making precise and smart recommendations."
"Dr.Barad made a really great impression on us not only as a very knowledgeable doctor but also as a very compassionate person."
"When I started this journey over 3 years ago, I knew I would have good days and bad days, but nothing can ease the difficult days more than a compassionate team, that’s CHR. I was seeing a doctor at a center in Chicago and completed 4 awful cycles that left me heartbroken. My former doctor was obsessed with me using an egg donor and gave me almost no hope of having a child with my own eggs. I have DOR and unfortunately, I am considered a poor responder to ovarian stimulations. Thankfully, after a much-needed break from her, I found CHR! They are group of phenomenal human beings, knowledgeable, professional, caring, honest, approachable, kind, and compassionate. Dr. Gleicher, Dr. Barad and Dr. Benor are skilled, experienced, and honest physicians that keep communication as one of the key elements in their relationship with the patient. Even when things did not go as expected, they made sure to comfort me and maintained a positive attitude without being unrealistic. The day I had my first Skype consultation with Dr. Gleicher, I knew they were the ones, and that they will give me my so desired baby. The embryologists are also outstanding, they made sure I understood the process in detail and kept my precious embryos safe. My nurse Maria is someone I will always remember with special affection. Maria was always so caring, she made sure I felt comfortable, and that all the instructions were clear. She was always so easy to reach and always went beyond expectations during my cycles. Even if she had to call with not-so-good news, she found ways to keep my spirit positive. But words are not enough to describe how wonderful CHR is, and what they mean to me. They made my dream of becoming a mother a reality! The valued each of my precious eggs as unique and worth the effort and made the magic of giving me my perfect baby girl. I trusted them throughout the whole process and would do it all over again. I will never forget the day Dr. Barad did my embryo transfer and held my hand, I could imagine his smile through his face mask, and his eyes told me “Everything is going to be ok”. Everyone in CHR is friendly, kind and considered, from the front desk ladies to the nurses, labs techs, etc., you don’t’ have to talk to answering machines or leave messages that no one ever responds, you don’t feel that you are just a number like in other centers. They all make sure you have a great experience since day one. Thank you CHR for not letting me give up on my dream!"
"Knowledgeable, compassionate, experienced. A true gem of a Doctor that you want on your side."
"Dr. Barad has the best bedside manner of any physician I have ever interacted with. He practices medicine with compassion and caring for the individual and their set of circumstances. I love his motto of fighting for every egg and every embryo. Even if I am not successful having a child, the experience I have had in Dr. Barad’s care will be the silver lining and something I always cherish."
"Dr. Barad is extremely nice and attentive. Usually painful procedures were totally painless with him! Highly recommend!"
"My overall experience with Dr. David Barad was good. He an excellent doctor with lot of patience and experience."
"Dr. David Barad is AWESOME! I am on my journey to become a surrogate and it's all new to me so it can be overwhelming BUT Dr. Barad was so nice and humble. He made me feel comfortable and you can tell he is genuine with his patients! Loved him and I am grateful that I will be in this journey with CHR. Thank you."
"Good"
"Great bedside manner. Awesome experience. He really took his time and listened. Which is a lost art in the medical field today. I felt heard and respected."
"Dr Barad is a rare find. He is a charm, Very relaxed, not rushing to leave the room, takes his time, ready to answer all the questions, very knowledgeable and professional. You are in the right hands!! Highly recommended."
"Dr. Barad is so thoughtful in the way he works with his clients. I am always at ease during my appointments with him, and feel like he is providing the best care possible. Highly recommend."
"Dr. Barad is very experienced, highly skilled, and an awesome physician. CHR staff is very professional and makes our visit experience a pleasant one. Lot of thanks to CHR and it is highly recommended."
"Besides his great expertise and high scientific knowledge, Dr. Barad is compassionate, kind, patient. He supported me in the worst moment of taking the decision to transfer my poor quality embryos on Day 3 holding my hand and genuinely caring for my wellbeing.
Because of the pandemic, I had to wait a couple of years before being treated at CHR - I definitely recommend Dr. Barad and hope to get his advise also in the next future."
"Dr Barad was very kind and gentle. My retrieval was only my second time meeting him and he instantly made me feel comfortable. Dr Christy the anesthesiologist was so funny and talkative. She explained what she was going to do every step of the way but also was definitely trying to ease my kid with distractions talking about vacay places etc. Sherry was great too, very focused on the prep and getting everything right. The team was efficient and professional. Overall great experience since I just switched from another clinic and was nervous about the change. The other piece I really appreciated was the transparency and communication. During my sonogram they had a screen up so I could see what my follicles looked like. Directly after retrieval both Sherry and then Dr Barnard told me how many eggs were retrieved , which was a huge relief since I was nervous about them collecting far less eggs than my old clinic given they pull so much earlier. I also got a great update through the portal this afternoon but fertilization and growth of the eggs. I appreciate the regular communication for sure."
"Doctor Barad is a great person for consulting, he understands patients emotions and can guide appropriately with the practical scenarios."
"CHR is the best and the only reason why I am pregnant!! Before coming to the Center for Human Reproduction, my husband and I had been to two fertility clinics in NJ. We did a total of 6 IUIs, two completely failed IVF cycles including one failed fresh transfer. From those clinics we were diagnosed with male factor infertility. But the reason why the cycles were failing came down to my egg quality. The doctors at these clinics told us an array of heartbreaking things, for example, that probably one of us has a genetic disorder that hasn’t been discovered and we can try again, changing absolutely nothing and if it did not work, we wouldn’t be able to have children of our own. What those doctors really meant was that they had no idea how to diagnose me, no less how to treat me. My mother and sister decided to do some research after my failed cycle and came across CHR’s website and it was life changing! I sent CHR all my medical records for the second opinion program and within a week I received a report from Dr. Gleicher - diagnosing me with lean PCOS. I couldn’t believe that after a year and a half, at two major fertility clinics in NJ, I sent my records to CHR and I had a real diagnosis. I couldn’t have been more thrilled. I set up a consultation with Dr. Gleicher as soon as I could so I could get started at their office. I also have Lupus Nephritis SLE and Dr. Gleicher was very knowledgeable about that condition and what risks it poses to pregnancy. Dr. Gleicher was great during the consultation going over everything and wanted me to start a specific dosage of DHEA. I will never forget that before hanging up from our virtual call Dr. Gleicher said, “Don’t worry, you’ll be fine.” After all the failed treatments, I couldn’t believe a doctor was telling me not to worry. I breathed a sigh of relief - I knew he was confident in my treatment and therefore I was confident in him. After six weeks of DHEA I was ready for my IVF cycle. During the monitoring I mostly saw Dr. Barad. He is such a caring doctor who treats his patients with dignity. I felt that he truly took into account how difficult having to go through infertility is and it showed. He was patient and always took his time for my questions or to just explain where I was in the process. I was finally ready for my egg retrieval. Now in the past, my embryos did not make it to freeze so I was left with none. The egg retrieval results at CHR were beyond my expectation. I had 12 mature eggs, two of them were put in for a fresh transfer and four made it to five day blastocysts to freeze!! Unfortunately the fresh transfer did not work but I met with Dr. Gleicher and he and my nurse were very caring and supportive throughout that time. Next month I went in for a frozen transfer and I am so happy to say I am pregnant with twins! I cannot thank Dr. Gleicher enough for my diagnosis and Dr. Barad for his care! I graduated from CHR a little over a month ago and what I realized is that CHR is truly a step above the rest in terms of doctors. Not only did they diagnose me, treat me, they gave me my dream of becoming pregnant! I believe with all my heart the reason I am pregnant is because of CHR. Dr. Gleicher and Dr. Barad have the knowledge to be successful as well as the compassion to make the patients feel comfortable. The office as a whole is truly amazing! And it goes beyond the doctors. The nurses were all wonderful, Huina was the nurse assigned to me and she was great. The front desk staff were always welcoming and nice. I felt like everyone there was really rooting for me and that means so much when you are going through something this difficult. I am so thrilled to have graduated and on my way but I was sad to leave CHR and all the amazing people there! Truly, the doctors, nurses and all of the staff are such blessings! I cannot wait to meet my twin girls this spring!!"
"Dr. Barad is patient and compassionate. He explains information with care, taking the time to make sure everything is easy to understand."
"Dr Barad was a doll during my last follow-up. He took tons of time with me to thoroughly go through my case, reviewing the quality of my embryos. He walked me through a number of options for my next round and was both honest and reassuring. I really appreciated the attention he gave my situation. It felt very personalized. He also infused me with some optimism for the next steps, which is so important during this hard journey. Both he and Dr. Gleicher are exceptional as is their approach. I am glad I switched to CHR."
"Love Dr. Barad. Always makes me feel better"
"Dr. Barad was an excellent listener and an excellent responder. He remembered names and details from our conversation and referenced them. He showed compassion for tough times and it was a pleasure speaking with him."
"Dr Barad was warm and attentive..staff was nice too."
"Such a gentle and compassionate provider."
"I am a former patient who has had a successful IVF at CHR and now I’m back for baby-# 2. I have complete trust in Dr Barad and the rest of the team. He’s is very thorough and takes the time to review and explain everything in full detail."
"Professional and substantive response! Distinguished doctor and scientist! And very nice person."
"Dr. Barad is, in my opinion, an exceptional doctor. He was kind, patient, knew what he was talking about and listened attentively. I'm glad my insurance guided me to his office! I hope my body cooperates through this process. I appreciate you Dr. Barad. Thank you for being you!"
"I reached out to CHR because I’m 45 and after 8 months of trying, was looking for assistance in getting pregnant. After my phone consultation with Dr. Gleicher, I was sent a list of lab appointments, (via their portal), I had to complete extensive blood tests and other requested information to determine the next steps. This is all VERY normal. Most healthcare offices have their portal as a way of communicating. I read someone’s review complaining about having to “take computer classes” to be able to communicate with CHR??? People will complain about anything if they didn’t get their expected outcome. Anyway, once my blood tests came back, Dr. Geicher notified me that my FSH numbers were really good and started me on his recommended supplements to improve egg quality/quantity, in preparation for IVF. After 3 months of being on his supplements, I got pregnant naturally. Dr. Barad and Dr. G closely monitored me for the first 10-12 weeks, (with weekly ultrasounds), making sure everything was going as it should, and Marijana, (who assisted Dr. G and Barad), would constantly check-up on me when I would forget to send my weekly updates in the portal. Not once did I feel like I was “just another patient,” even though I was. With each visit and every interaction, I felt I was not only working with very intelligent people but also that they cared. Once they confirmed my pregnancy was going well, they helped me decide on an OBGYN in my network and released me. TBH, I was very scared to leave because I became dependent on them, and their knowledge and wasn't sure if my next Dr. would be on their level. My experience couldn’t have been a better one, not because I got the outcome I wanted, but because I felt extremely confident, from the initial phone call with Dr. G to the very end, that I was dealing with the “experts” in this field. They don’t tell you on the first call that you need an egg donor, which most Dr’s would do. They assess your situation and decide the best course of action for you. I’m now 4 months pregnant and even though it happened naturally, I don’t think it could have ever happened without the guidance of CHR. More people need to know about this place. Period."
"I felt at ease with Dr. Barad and the nurses that assisted during my visit. Top tier service, they were patient and explained the process prior and during my visit."
"There’s no real words do describe how caring, informative, knowledgeable and helpful Dr. Barad is for the mind and fertility! There’s no better hands to be in!"
"Dr. Barad is an amazing caring and compassionate doctor. He is a doctor who really cares about his patients."
"Dr. David Barad is great and extremely knowledgeable; he answered all the questions my husband and I had and he empathised with our concerns regarding staff communication and billings department transparency concerns."
"Dr Barad is a good listener, has open views and is really interested in making your family dream come true!"
"Excellent doctor! I love this place and all personal customer service, the have excellent interpersonal skills and professionalism. Specially Dr. Barad."
"When I was 27, after several miscarriages, I went to the CHR. Staff very professional, friendly, very nice ladies on registration, very helpful nurses. Dr. Barad was taking care of me. He was very kind, patient. He always was specific with large experience, very gentle and considerate. The clinic is so clean and cozy. I felt comfortable, everything was always on time. Information immediately provided by phone, always answers to questions. After 2 transfers, I will come back for another one. I recommend it with all my heart."
"I have my own little family because of Dr. Barad. Thank you for being gentle and supportive during procedures. May God bless you all in CHR."
"My husband and I are based in PA and ended up coming to CHR after our local clinic told us we had no other options besides egg donation. Dr. Barad changed our lives - CHR listened, and tailored my treatments to my specific issues. They also monitored me much closer than my previous clinic, and the results speak for themselves. After 3 tries (with adjustments after each) we retrieved 4 eggs, got 2 embryos, and I am now 8.5 months pregnant with a baby girl. This would NOT have happened at my old clinics, CHR respected our plans and worked with us to achieve our goals. Well worth the trips to NY from PA, and I will be always eternally thankful."
"It's impossible to heap enough praises on Dr. Barad. He practices thorough, thoughtful, individualized and evidenced-based cutting edge medicine plus loads of kindness and care.......and we have a large, lovely family to show for it. This was after 2 years of cookie-cutter pricey failures at a different place I was first referred to. Being a physician-scientist myself, and in light of the first 2 years of failure, I searched for the people that were publishing the best high-quality research for my demographic. Although we live several hours flight away, this was the place we chose, and are forever grateful for that decision. Throughout our duration with CHR, the nurses were uniformly outstanding at promptly responding and communicating---again in tremendously superior contrast to our initial clinic. We had no insurance coverage for any of this, but costs were absolutely very fair."
"CHR is the absolute best! I live in Florida and have made Dr. Barad my official RE after going through a clinical study with him. He is the kindest, most knowledgeable RE I have yet to meet. I've pretty much exhausted all options in FL because I visited the top two REs in my area (Orlando) and they were terrible and my experiences were traumatic. I then moved on to another RE in Winter Park but the clinic (and doctor) are nothing like CHR. From the front desk staff to the nurses, all the way upstairs to the Phlebotomist who took my blood. They were ALL soooo amazing. I was just absolutely stunned. But, of course, my favorite person there is Dr. Barad. He treats you like you're family. He looks at you in the eyes like you're a real human being. He treats you like you're competent and doesn't explain simple concepts to you as if you were a child. I had absolutely no negative feelings about my entire experience. I am actually going back next Friday and my husband and I are both excited. Can you imagine being excited to travel to NY during a pandemic to have sharp needles stuck in your arms and to have another procedure? Yes, excited! THAT is how wonderful CHR is. Oh and also I wanted to mention that Lori (Lorenis) has been incredibly communicative and helpful the entire 2+ months that I've been "working" with her. I can't imagine going anywhere else for this. I have found my RE and I couldn't be more grateful."

"I have been a long-time IVF warrior. I am a young person who unfortunately has very poor ovarian reserve. Prior to CHR, I have had 2 very discouraging retrieval cycles from 2 reputable local IVF clinics. I almost gave up on having my own biological children before contacting CHR. Dr. Gleicher rekindled my confidence through his expertise in dealing with difficult cases like mine. With his one-of-a-kind protocol, I retrieved 19 eggs and produced 8 high-grade embryos! Unfortunately 6 of them did not implant. Then the doctors tried a much more aggressive immune suppressing protocol, and now I am almost due with twins :)I am not giving them great reviews just because I had success with them. Like I said I have been to multiple IVF centers and I have done a lot of research. First of all, you cannot compare IVF centers with statistics alone, because they admit different types of patients. Secondly, bedside manner should not be a factor. My doctor at my previous clinic had super nice bedside manners but they messed up my cycle big time. Dr. Gleicher may appear cold but Dr. Barad is super great with patients. If you read the papers that these doctors write you will see they are at the forefront of IVF technology. I also love their lab technicians. They always disclose a lot of information about my embryos to me and are very candid."
"just nowDr Barad is the most respectful and kind Doctor I have ever had. He respects your experience and intelligence. He is compassionate and approachable and provides comprehensive information about my individual situation. He is very accurate and careful with the procedures I had. He is the best doctor I have ever had in any specialty and I recommend him highly. I was able to get pregnant through Ivf twice at the age of 40 because of him. He provides individualized care unlike other clinics that are mass productions. The front desk and nursing staff and anesthesiologists are All Excellent. Dr. Gleitcher is knowledgeable and has vast experience as well. Both Doctor's I mentioned are in the Ivf forefront within centers Worldwide. They give presentations at the IVF conferences often and are very up to date. Anna Magdalena Hess"
"When I was 27, after several miscarriages, I went to the CHR. Staff very professional, friendly, very nice ladies on registration, very helpful nurses. Dr. Barad was taking care of me. He was very kind, patient. He always was specific with large experience, very gentle and considerate. The clinic is so clean and cozy. I felt comfortable, everything was always on time. Information immediately provided by phone, always answers to questions. After 2 transfers, I will come back for another one. I recommend it with all my heart."
"I would just like to write something about chr. From the moment we started this very stressful journey, we felt so confident we were in good hands. From our first meeting with Dr.Gleicher to our experience with Lorenis our nurse, and of course the wonderful and fabulous Dr. David Barad. He put me and my husband at ease every step of the way, and for that we are forever grateful. Our daughter will be a year and a half this month and chr made our dreams come true. Thank you so much. The Wolchok family.❣️"
"Doctor David Barad and entire staff are always very friendly and professional! Absolutely love them all!!!!""
"Both Dr.Gleicher & Dr.Barad are wonderful doctors. Even more so, the entire team of nurses care for you like you’re family. You will always be greeted with smiles from the administrative team, and the overall environment is warm and welcoming. I always appreciate the honesty yet decorum the doctors use when communicating with you... Because of this amazing team, we now have hope that we will one day in the near future become parents."
"I feel Dr. Barad is a wonderful doctor and puts his patients mind at ease. My wife and I felt very comfortable with him and appreciated the care he gave. My only complaint is with the finance person. She is a very difficult person to deal with and isn't very warm or compassionate when dealing with the patients. In addition you ask for a favor to have paperwork sent to ins company and it was done erroneously. Should've done it myself. When I approached her about this, she used her infamous line because we dont take your insurance, as if thats the reason for the error? To top it off she didn't own up to making the mistake and tried to blame me. I without a doubt would recommend to CHR for infertility, just be prepared to come across a difficult person when it comes to payments."
"Currently doing my IVF treatment with this doctor his amazing so compassionate and caring. Through him God will make my miracle of my babies girls. Thank you so much Dr. Barad and CHR. My favorite nurse Lorenis she's amazing"
"Dr Barad is such a nice doctor .., very compassionate , thorough, and with full knowledge of his expertise. and he takes his time discussing your over all condition , i will most likely to recommend Dr Barad to any patient who is in need of his help "
"By far one of the best experiences of our lives. Dr. Barad is AMAZING. Thank you Dr. Barad and CHR. We love you!!!"
"I spoke with Dr. Barad who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He provided exactly the information I was looking for and even followed up by emailing me his notes from our meeting. I was impressed at the time. I spoke with another well-known RE from another clinic and he put very little effort into the 2nd opinion. And so I now appreciate even more my consultation with Dr. Barad.I also have found CHR's website extremely informative and helpful. The frozen egg donor program is a common sense innovation. I appreciate the transparency, communication, friendliness, and of course expertise. Thanks again for all you do!"
