One of many questions - can you help with this list of drs?

I searched for LI REs on my insurance co. website and here is the list. They do not state which practice they are with but I have figured out that Dr. Pena is with ECF. Can anyone help with the others?

Any feedback would also be appreciated.

Kreiner and Pena are East Coast Fertility. They are a very large practice. Lots of mixed reviews on them, but I've never been there.

I believe I received a letter that Lydic joined Reproductive Specialists of NY and he's no longer at that address.

Dr Lydic practices out of RS of NY in stonybrook. From what i understand hes not part of the practice but has office space there ... - i may b wrong though
631-246-9100

I was very unhappy with Dr. Pena and never went back after the first visit.

Also- I payed a co-pay when I went and I started getting bills from them 8 months after I was there for my co-pay and for progesterone- which I never got from them

Re: One of many questions - can you help with this list of drs?

Dr. Pena and Dr. Kreiner are with East Coast Fertility. I am currently seeing Dr. Pena and I like him, although the Plainview office is so crazy it sometimes feels like a factory.

I just met with Dr. Lydic Tuesday. He is now in with RS of NY in Stony Brook. He seemed very nice - a friend of mine referred me to him.

Good luck!

Re: One of many questions - can you help with this list of drs?

I used to see Dr. Lydic when he had an office on Technology drive (the one you listed). I loved him, but at the time he didn't do IVF- and we needed to go that route, so I had to leave him. I thought he was a good dr though and I felt he had a lot more knowledge than a lot of other dr's that I had met with.
I def. think he's worth meeting with. He's with RSNY now- and has an offce just west of his old one- in the Stony Brook Medical park. HTH!

Re: One of many questions - can you help with this list of drs?

Thanks, everyone.

I called ECF and the first available appointment in WI is 4/23.

My insurance will definitely not cover RSNY, so it looks like Dr. Lydic is off the list now too.

I think I will just stick with Batzofin. He was really nice and his follow-up has been good, so I guess DH will just have to schlep in to Manhattan for any treatments. I'm going back to see him on Monday.

I was recently referred to Palter, he is Gold Coast IVF, but he doesn't take my insurance.
