We have a miracle story to share about our path to having two beautiful angels.
We were trying to have a baby for around an year and nothing happened. Our OB/GYN didn’t ask us to perform any initial testing when we decided on having a family. So after seeing no results, we were asked to do some tests and we were shocked to find that my husband had no sperm, and I too poor ovulation.
We happened to see the book – How to Get Pregnant by Dr. Silber from the library and found a ray of hope. The book itself gave us tremendous information regarding the options we have that that itself helped us to have a faith in Dr. Silber. We called this office and luckily got the first appointment within a week.
We took the latest test results with us. Meeting with Dr. Silber was very pleasant and exciting and he assured that we can have a successful IVF. We decided to go ahead with the dates for the IVF on the same day.
We were assigned with a co-coordinator who was really helpful in getting us thorough the journey answering our numerous questions promptly and patiently. The entire communication with Dr. Silber’s office was very prompt and helpful. We took the training on how to inject the IVF medications from hospital as well.
On the day of egg retrieval, my husband was scheduled for MESA procedure to retrieve sperm and Dr. Silber himself performed the operation. Thankfully it was very successful and then it was my turn for egg retrieval. Dr. Pineda assisted Dr. Silber with every procedure. There were only 3 eggs that fertilized correctly because of my low egg count and my husband’s low amount of sperm.
We were filled with blissful happiness on the day we heard the positive news from Dr. Silber that I was pregnant. The joy was compounded a zillion times when we learned from our OB/GYN that we were having identical twins.
We are very thankful for the great service from each and every one from Dr. Silber’s office. And we are thankful to the Universe for blessing us twice with two beautiful angels!
Infertile patients cannot afford to wait for treatment while their eggs get older.
Dr. Sherman Silber, Infertility Center of St. Louis, is offering video consultations for patients who need to plan now for their treatment while stay-at-home orders are in place. He is talking to and evaluating patients in their home to comply with social distancing measures.
Dr. Silber is discovering that patients actually prefer this method of telemedicine consultation over the conventional office visit. Patients have conveyed that “it is so much more convenient and less stressful” to have a telemedicine personal consultation than to take a day off from work to travel to the doctor’s office and sit with other nervous patients in the waiting room.
The COVID-19 pandemic is thus changing much of the way we will do things in the future, and for the better. “Our patients are surprisingly much happier with this approach. Of course, at some point we need to perform hands on treatment. But with this new manner of seeing patients, we can come to the right diagnosis and treatment plan for most patients more efficiently, quickly, and painlessly, with no loss of personal one-on-one communication.” This is a very welcome new era of telemedicine that has been forced on us by the current difficult times.
