do you know a website where I can check about IF clinics?

JUst by chance, does any body knows a website that talks about the different infertility clinics?
Who gives to these clinics the title of the "best"?

whenever a clinic is giving you stats, be sure you look at live baby rate. Many count a beta over 10 a positive, even if it ends in a chemical pregnancy or m/c.

Here's the CDC's website from 2002. http://apps.nccd.cdc.gov/ART2002/clinics02.asp The one for 2003 should be out soon.

BC-KarenS-MI,

Thanks a lot for your info, actually it is the same website that MMI gave me, the information of this site is awesome! Now I have been able to compare the different clinics that were recommended to me.

SueZ,

Yes, I do remember all the clinics that every lady gave me, actually I have all the websites and telephone numbers printed, and I know you guys gave me the best clinics, no question.

I have been making calls and research but with the help of this site gave me the reassurance I was looking for. Now, I can make a better decision of what is the best clinic that suits my needs of all the best clinics, you see?


I don't know, maybe I am very scare and insecure; I want to double check everything after my last failed IVFs. This next step is a lot for us, financially and emotionally so an additional check from a totally different point of view doesn't hurt to any body but gave me the comfort level I am looking for.

oh yes, for sure, you are spending a lot of money and traveling way too far to not have the best. if it were me, I would go with the one I told you that my friend did, RMA, in New York City, but she got pregnant the first shot using donor eggs, so that's why i am partial! lol

I have a friend in chicago, i'll ask her if what you mentioned is the clinic that she uses
