Shortly after Chris and I met, he told me he had a condition called Kallman Syndrome, where the man can make no sperm, and he was not able to have children. At least that is what he had been told for years and years. I thought there had to be a way with so many advances in that area.
A couple years after we married, we started looking into our options. Before we found out about Dr. Silber, we heard of another physician. We saw them and were told, Sorry, no deal. We were devastated and started to look into adoption.
A woman I worked for at the time knew our situation and had known someone who went to Dr. Silber. She showed me the website and Chris and I were impressed and set up a consultation. We were even more impressed and actually hopeful for once.
It took us some time to get the process started but once we were ready, we called and said it was Go Time. From the first person you speak to in the office all the way to Dr. Silber and Dr. De Rosa, everyone was so incredibly reassuring, professional, and kind.
On Aug 28, 2011, our procedures started and on Sept 12, 2011, we found out Dr. Silber and Dr. De Rosa are definitely miracle workers and we got the great news we were pregnant. We were beyond thrilled as well as our families! From that day on, our lives have been a whirlwind.
The pregnancy went very smoothly until the last few weeks when I had some blood pressure issues, but all went well and on May 16, 2012, Connor Robert graced us with his presence and has been an absolute blessing ever since. We will forever be grateful for Dr. Silber and his team. They gave us the best gift anyone could ask for.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
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.
