Palter vs. Zapantis

Currently with Palter but seeing a lot of negative reviews online. Haven’t officially started any treatment per say. Zapantis on the other hand has very positive reviews. Anyone with personal experience with both?

Re: Palter vs. Zapantis

I used Dr. Palter. My best friend used Zapantis...

I went to Dr. Palter after leaving LIIVF, which I def. do not recommend. I was diagnosed with unexplained secondary infertility; DH had no issues. I had 3 failed Clomid IUIs with LIIVF. I knew I was going to IVF after 3 IUIs and I knew I needed to change offices. Now, Dr. Palter is not the most warm and fuzzy person but I feel like he knows his shit. He is very thorough and will order testing prior to just jumping into things. I really liked his nurses, especially AnnMarie. The receptionist Stephanie is super nice. You walk in and everyone knows your name. I did not wait long for morning monitoring appts. but I did wait for other appts., like uterine mapping, embryo transfer, etc. I got pregnant on my first fresh single embryo transfer. I'm currently 33 weeks along and very thankful to Gold Coast IVF.

My best friend used Dr. Zapantis. She has nothing but great things to say about him. She did not have any known fertility issues but needed reproductive assistance because she is married to a woman. She had 6 failed IUIs but her first FET was successful. She went back to him for baby #2 and had another successful FET on the first attempt--both single embryo transfers. She's got 2 beautiful kids now.

Good luck to you and you can PM me if you have any other questions.

I used dr palter and was successful on first ivf round. I hope to go back for a fet. He was recommended by a coworker who was successful with him and recommended him to another coworker who is due in a few months.

Thank you both for replying and the reassurance. Palter is thorough with his testing for sure, found I needed surgery right off the bat. I’m thankful for that and not finding that out later in the process. I’m now ready, full steam ahead and going right for IVF in the coming months. Hoping for success on round one.
