It was a year ago this month that we had the frozen embryo transfer that successfully blessed us with our fraternal twin daughters in December 2010.
We began our journey with Dr. Silber in January 2010 after dealing with unexplained infertility and undergoing 7 failed IUI attempts and a miscarriage treated elsewhere. We both wanted to grow our family and give our children siblings to grow up with. After a consultation with Dr. Silber he confirmed that we would be good candidates for mini-IVF. We wanted to delay this process for about 6 months after that initial consultation, but once we were ready, so was Dr. Silber’s team.
We are so grateful to Dr. Silber, Dr. Pineda and all of their staff for the excellent treatment we received during the entire process. They made a difficult and emotional time easier to handle with their care, concern and professionalism. Whenever I had a question, big or small, I could call and was always made to feel like my question mattered and was important. I would recommend them to anyone experiencing infertility.
How do you thank someone for helping you achieve one of the biggest life dreams one can have… being parents now for the second time. Words cannot express this gratitude. But the smiles on our children’s faces are a constant reminder of the wonderful people at Dr. Silber’s clinic that helped make our dream a reality.
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.
