Inquiring about LIIVF

I have heard so much chat on here about LIIVF, it is right next to my house! I was wondering what your experience has been here. I have endo, pcos and one tube(just had one removed in lap surgery) and am getting a new job that ( am holding my breath)has infertility benefits. So, i was thinking at some point, if i move on to IVF, which will prob be soon, i am going to need someone close to me due to new job etc...
I am really going to need a good doctor to help me get preggo as i have so many issues going on . I hate to leave my current RE but the benefits only pay 30% for out of network docs so in 2 months, if im not preggo with IUI, i am stupid not to leave and get 100% coverage somewhere else! Any feedback would be so appreciated, thanks everyone!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

The docs and staff at LI-IVF are great! I had a VERY positive experience with them!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

Im seeing Kengisberg and they are just wonderful. The nurses and staff are so caring and organized!!!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I see Dr. Brenner. He is excellent! The staff is great too! Good Luck!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I can't say enough good things about them...Kenigsberg is very honest and upfront, Brenner is much more the caring type...
Good luck!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

Dr. Brenner for me!

SUZY!!!!!! You have FM!!!!!! I didn't know you had him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

This is great, thank you so much! Do they all have office hours in Port Jefferson? I noticed their SART stat's are lower than other clinics, do you know if they take on harder cases? I am not sure but i might fall into that category! I have one tube, endo and pcos and my DH has low morphology...
i wonder if i will ever get pregnant..but am not giving up!! My current RE said since i am 29 i should have a good chance with IVF if IUI doesnt work.

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I am a LI-IVF patient and have been very pleased with the entire staff. As you probably know, they have offices in Lake Success, Melville, and Pt. Jefferson. It's good to choose a location close to your home or work because of the frequent visits. Good luck!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I love dr. K at liivf. He doesn't sugar coat anything and is direct and to the point, I appreciate that. Their SART data is actually some of the highest in the area. (?) They have an excellent lab with great results.

Here is the link to the Sart sight for NY:

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I just started seeing Dr. K and really like him. I also found him to be very nice and sweet which I was not really prepared for based on things I had heard. Anyway, I agree with Elise, they have one of the highest SART rates on LI which is why I am switching to them. Also, just FYI, they won't be doing ivf out of PJ. Starting in March they are opening their own IVF lab in Melivlle so it will be done threre.

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

This is great info as I, too, am looking into LI-IVF.

Thank you for sharing your experiences and opinions!!!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

Very happy with the Lake Success office, I'm getting ready to do a cycle with Dr. K in April

Good luck!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I just called LI-IVF yesterday for an appointment, and their computers were down. I'm going to call back on Monday for my first appointment. Hopefully I'll have a BFP and I won't need to go (AF is due any day now, and still no sign of her).

Keeping my fingers crossed!!!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

I was very pleased with LI IVF, Dr. Brenner and the Lake Success office. Gail Nee, the NP, was out of this world!

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

that office is great. I see Dr. Brenner.

Re: Inquiring about LIIVF

Does anyone have the phone number for any of the offices? Thanx in advance
