Dr. Danis was the best!! I’ve been telling all my friends they have to go see her if they want to go through the egg retrieval/IVF process. I have PCOS and she adjusted my course actively as we got the results back on a day by day basis. She explained everything thoroughly, and if I still had more questions, she was always happy to answer. I cannot recommend her enough!
I switched clinics after meeting Dr. Danis for a second opinion. We did 2 rounds of egg retrievals and 1 transfer cycle. Only one of my ovaries responded during the first round, so Dr. Danis used a different protocol for the second to which my body responded better. She made helpful and considerate recommendations regarding treatment considering my age, health, and work schedule. She was blunt enough that I believed her advice but remained positive. I have her to thank for my beautiful and healthy daughter.
Dr. Danis was my wife’s reproductive medicine doctor for her IVF. She is extremely knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a doctor in fertility.
