When I found out I had endometriosis I thought I would never be able to get pregnant. We actually started our journey with a wonderful office. Dr. Pineda was a very nice man.
He did help us get pregnant with undergoing IUI. I actually did get pregnant with the first try and ended up in ectopic pregnancy. After that we tried several times with the IUI’s and nothing happened. Dr. Pineda decided it was time to speak with Dr. Silber, which I was so excited after our consult with Dr. Silber.
I remember after we left his office, I told my husband that this is it, he is going to help us get pregnant and we are going to be parents! We started immediately with treatment, and sure enough 9 months later I gave birth to a perfect little boy names Jaxon.
Words cannot express how thankful we are to have a man like Dr. Silber in our life who can make pregnancy dreams come true.
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.
