The reviewer had negative experiences at the clinic due to chaotic conditions, glaring errors, and overpriced services. Ms. Swayze, the staff, tried hard but this was not enough. Unfortunately, the review also mentions unecessary charges for stored sperm.

Unfortunately, I have to share the negative experiences. Ms. Swayze is an empathetic woman and tried hard. However, the sometimes chaotic conditions caused by absolute assembly-line work lead to glari…

Long waiting times, untrained staff, and poor treatment outcome. The staff, led by Dr. Shtek Urody, failed to provide a satisfactory IVF experience, especially for older patients.

I didn't like it. Because you have to wait a long time at the door, they don't have a test, they don't know how to take blood, and if you're already 40 years old, they give up and say that nothing wil…

Unfortunately, I absolutely cannot recommend them. From a personal perspective, they seem very lacking in empathy and out for money.
