10 Questions to Ask Your IVF Doctor At Your First Visit

As we take our first steps into IVF, one of the most important steps to take in that initial walk is finding the right doctor for you. We had met with one doctor before finding the doctor we are now going with. Both were completely opposite one was more clinical and one was more personal.

Before both meetings we came equipped with questions we wanted answered, and what was so wonderful about the doctor we met with was he answered most of these questions before we even asked. In any case here, ready and excited to get this journey started.

We obviously may have forgotten some questions or some  questions may or may not make sense for your journey. IF there is one thing I can say and will continue to say is that this journey is so so so personalized and unique, don’t ever compare yours to someone else!

I will not be putting the answers we received along with the questions, this blog post is not meant to be medical advice but informational.
