IVFMD

Thanks to Dr. Wood and her staff (almost 13 years ago) my husband and I were able to have beautiful twins that are now about to be teenagers! This doctor is extremely good at what she does and is upfront about expectations and possible outcomes!

My husband and I are so grateful to Dr.Gelman for our beautiful daughter…after trying to conceive for 5yrs, he looked at our case and immediately assured us we will get pregnant during our very first appointment. Sure enough we got a positive test our very first cycle. Our daughter was born healthy and safe. The staff were good to us and we appreciate everyone’s help and support. I recommend Dr.Gelman to anyone seeking fertility treatment. He is honest, straightforward and compassionate. God put him on our path and he helped our dream come true.

Thanks to Dr. Wood I have two new nephews, my one year old and my current pregnancy. In this ever changing field of medicine, she has so much experience and at the same time keeps herself up to date with the latest research so you have the piece of mind that you are getting the best care and that you are really doing everything medically possible to increase your chances of success. She takes the time to make sure you understand the plan of care and all the possible outcomes. You will for sure be in the best hands, even if your case has been called “difficult” by other doctors. Additionally, nurse Manzi is so approachable, gentle and considered with you as a patient that has been through hell trying to create your dream family. Manzi will waste no time addressing your concerns and anything else you need to navigate this complex process. IVFMD Cooper City is the place to go if you need fertility experts!

We had Dr. Wood, twin live birth first try, so ultimately no matter what else, she definitely gets the highest rating. She was also very accommodating and knowledgeable.

This is what people writing reviews aren't understanding though...most people reviewing this need to reset their expectations. Everyone thinks, because they are spending a lot of money, they should be guaranteed success...that's not the case.

Second, IVF Dr's in general don't have the best "bedside manner"...this is due huge to the fact that they are dealing with bad news like 95% of the time. You do become a bit hardened over time, but they are passionate about your success and happiness, and you'll see that present in the whole staff.

Third, no matter what you still need to do your own research. They call out the statistics, you need to research your own wants and needs.

Lastly, so much of this success will boil down to your own hard work, often a year before you go through this.

About a month ago I had a biopsy with Dr Adriana Ballesta, that woman is an angel on earth, I was very scared and the way she spoke to me made my nerves go down, the procedure was uncomfortable but not painful at all. She took the time to call me on my phone on her day off to give me the results, anyway, if you have to have a biopsy of the uterus, don't hesitate to ask Dr Adriana to do it, you won't regret it.

Very friendly and welcoming staff! Was our first visit, amazing nurses, nervous walking in but everyone made us feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend. Didn’t feel like just another patient here.

Amazing center and professional team. DR Gilman is the best in this field. He listens to his patients, takes the necessary time to create a great environment for his patient during treatment

I am a patient with Dr. Gelman and I will be starting my 4th round of IUI. I went in for my day 3 Ultrasound and had the BEST experience with one of the nurses. Yarit was so patient and accommodating. I felt like my concerns and questions were all heard. She made me feel like the multiple questions I had were not as bizzard and out of the norm that I thought they were. She sat in the room with us and explained each of my questions one after the other. After the time spent in the room, she continued to follow up with Dr. Gelman and then called myself and my significant other to follow up with each concern. Going through fertility is a very intimate place where us patients want to feel heard and be able to cry when needed. I felt very comfortable opening up to her and expressing my vulnerability without any judgment or increased speed of the process. Thank you so much!!

A huge thank you to Dr. Gelman and the Cooper City team. Dr. Gelman has helped make my dream become a reality! After almost 2 years of going through IVF at a different clinic in south Florida with failed results I found Dr. Gelman. He made me feel heard and optimistic. I am now pregnant!! Look no further and follow his instructions. Thanks again!! :)

Dr. Gellman and his staff are amazing. His nurses always answered my emails within the same day and always made sure I understood everything that I needed to do. My previous ivf doctor at another clinic told me I would never have children with my own eggs and I should use donor eggs at 30 years old! With IVFMD, I had success with one retrieval that produced 2 embryos and two successful transfers. Now I am a blessed mother of two children! IVFMD is the best!

I cannot stress enough how good we've felt dealing with personal at this clinic; people are really nice at every position. Dr. Gerkowicz is the most caring person and doctor we've ever met in our lives. She will go the extra mile to make sure every treatment is properly executed. God bless her and her staff for everything they do.

Dr Kenneth Gelman made our dream to have our baby come true. Dr Gelman gave us recommendations in order to get a successful transfer and we follow them through. ERA, genetic testing, lipid infusions, acupuncture worked for us and we got successful pregnancy from first try. I am strongly recommending Dr Gelman! He is the best!)

I found Dr. Kenneth Gelman and IVFMD after doing my own research into the best fertility specialists in South Florida. My husband and I had experienced losses and, at our ages, decided not to waste time and sought out assistance. During our initial consultation, I knew Dr. Gelman was going to be our fertility doctor. He answered all of our questions in detail and was very direct with us about what to expect and, conversely, what not to expect. He also had a sense of humor which my husband and I certainly appreciated under the circumstances. I am ecstatic to say that with Dr. Gelman’s help, we are currently expecting!

From the day of the initial consultation to the day I “graduated” to my OB-GYN, I always felt that Dr. Gelman gave me realistic expectations and was invested in us having the best outcome possible. Never did I feel like I was just a number or nameless patient, nor did I ever feel rushed at appointments. Dr. Gelman was also extremely responsive when something urgent arose. He called me personally on two occasions throughout my treatment when it was warranted. For women and couples looking for an expert fertility specialist who will provide outstanding care, I recommend Dr. Gelman without reservation.

In addition to my fantastic experience with Dr. Gelman, I cannot say enough about the team at IVFMD Cooper City. Dr. Gelman’s medical assistant, Jeanine, is phenomenal. She always had a smile on her face and established fantastic patient rapport with me. I always looked forward to a laugh with her. Darlene is also outstanding. She would draw my blood more often than not, and I was always happy when she did. Each time, Darlene greeted me with a warm smile and a positive attitude. She also established a great rapport with me. Finally, my coordinator, Tatyana, was excellent as well. Her communication throughout the process was second to none. Jeanine, Darlene, and Tatyana greatly enhanced my patient experience at IVFMD, and the practice is fortunate to have them.

Thank you Dr Gelman!

I'm currently 19 weeks pregnant!

I believe some people are here on earth to make a difference in people's lives, Dr Gelman at IVFMD (Cooper City) is one of them.

I was with a previous Specialist and had the worst experience of my life. I had a very painful and traumatic HSG. I was told aggressively that if I wanted to get pregnant, I needed 2 different types of surgeries and straight to IVF. I felt defeated, scared and gave me extreme anxieties. I listened to my gut and switched to a different Specialist.

I’m so happy I switched to Dr Gelman, I feel extremely fortunate and grateful to have found him. The first day I met him I knew he would be the right Doctor for me. He’s very calm, compassionate, also direct when he needs to. I found him very caring, funny & kind. He listened to all my concerns and anxieties, answered all of our long lists of questions. His positive energy eased all my anxieties.

He recommended holistic approach: healthy diet, exercise, supplements, accupuncture, yoga, stretching and to keep my stress level low. I did them all, what an amazing self care regiment that all women should practice! His recommendations totally work! Trust in him, trust the process, trust yourself.

He was very thorough with all the bloodwork & tests. He was honest that my ovarian reserve were low and percentage of success were lower with IUI but remains hopeful and he said to keep moving forward.

He performed an SIS which he confirmed uterine polyps. He then recommended surgery, then 2 rounds of IUI, if IUI didn’t work then IVF.

Turns out, I didn’t need IVF. I had surgery in January. First round of IUI in February, Second round of IUI in March. By April we are pregnant!

Physically and mentally, it was all taking a toll on me. I’m so grateful to have Dr Gelman and his team by my side. During covid I had to do most appointments by myself. The nurses and the team at IVFMD Cooper City are so kind especially Mica who held my hand during SIS and made me comfortable every visits. Darlene the phlebotomist always smiling and positive. Nurses: Joselyn who made us laugh during IUI, Jennifer who delivered the pregnancy news to us. Leslie from Boca who was at the Cooper City office on a weekend to do my IUI, she said she would get us pregnant :) and she did! Dr Wood who did my surgery perfectly! She was very thorough and removed all the polyps, short and quick recovery post operation. She said the reason why I couldn’t get pregnant is because the polyps were in the way, preventing implantation.

The team of billing are great, so thorough. They explained everything. Honest with pricing, billing, provides clear itemized statements. They handled our insurance perfectly. We never had any issues from our insurance, everything was covered. They’re so on point!

I highly recommend Dr Gelman and his entire team at IVFMD in Cooper City. I am beyond grateful and thankful for the highest level of care and compassion, organization and thoroughness. We were sad to leave his care. What an “A” Team! They are our lucky stars!

I cannot say enough nice things about this practice. Dr. Wood, her nurse Lily and literally everyone else I met was so kind, caring and smart. People would remember you. We went to other places before this but they were awful and delayed our attempts at conceiving.

I have been a patient of this office for more than two years and thanks to ANDREA RODRÍGUEZ I have remained in this office for always being so kind, efficient and diligent with all my questions. She always has a smile and great way of communication. I appreciate you very much for helping us in our process, which was not easy, and today I can say that I am the happiest mom in the world.

Dr. Gelman is the reason I choose Ivfmd. I did my research before I even met him. He is one of the very few doctors who care about your journey and does not look at you like another chart number. He makes a plan that fits your situation and is with you every step of the way. I could not be more satisfied with him as our doctor. I am now 10 weeks pregnant and I officially graduated from the clinic. I put my trust in him and the process and now were here! I definitely will be back to see him for baby #2! Thank you, Dr. Gelman! & Thank you IVFMD ❤

Had a gear experience Mr. Gelman in the Cooper City office is a really good Doctor. I had four transfer only one child. I’ve been doing this process since 2016. I just did my last transfer this month which was a fail transfer. I did everything that was ask off for the transfer to success. The Doctor could not give me the cause of all the fail transfer. I did ERA test Lip injections everything. No explanation why my transfer keep failing. I pay everything out of Pocket. Every time a have a fail transfer I met with the Doctor I never get a good explanation why the transfer fail. The Doctor would tell me try again . It like through money in the trash every time I try again. It fail then I go back to the same thing all over again. This time I’m done this is it for me. Three fail with 30 thousand wasted. IVF process is not
Easy emotional and financial.

After years of trying procedures at another clinic where my husband and I felt like a number, we did our research and switched to IVF MD, and Dr. Gelman. Right away, Dr. Gelman evaluated my situation and created a plan we were comfortable with. He made recommendations that hadn’t been recommended at the other practice- and they were game changers! Every step of the way, every visit, every discussion I felt well informed and treated well. This clinic was also fair with pricing and transparent. All of it was very professional, even during very trying times during the pandemic. At the end of the day, we have a gorgeous baby girl and I will always attribute this to Dr. Gelman and his staff.

This is my second time returning to dr Gelman. I suffer from pcos and was told I could never hve my own children. back in 2016 we found and met with dr Gelman and with the help of ivf I had my beautiful twins girls which are now 3 years old. Fast fast forward to 2021 we returned to him and his team because we had such an amazing experience in hopes to complete our family and add one more baby. We did an embroyo transfer and are currently pregnant with our little boy. Dr Gelman and his team are amazing and I would recommend anyone having difficulty to reach out to them. We wouldn’t have been able to build our family without them. So blessed to have found him. A dr that is experienced, highly respected and actually understands and cares. He is honest and straight to the point which is everything we were looking for.
