Out-of Town Patient Information

At the time of your appointment, you will receive a phone call from our office. Your initial phone consultation with the doctor will last approximately 30 minutes. If you require more time with the doctor, we will be happy to schedule follow-up consultations.

After your initial phone consultation, we will schedule a one-day medical evaluation in our office. The scheduling of your medical evaluation will depend upon the timing of your menstrual cycles. This will be the first appointment where you will be traveling to us.

Your medical evaluation will include several tests, which might include a sonogram, cervical cultures, an HSG, and a mock embryo transfer.

If you are part of a female/male couple, the male partner might want to consider having his sperm collected and cryopreserved at this time. If a sample is frozen, the male partner will not necessarily need to return to our clinic when the IVF procedure is performed. If this is an option you would like to consider, the male partner must have STD testing completed and sent to our office before arriving for the medical evaluation. We will not be able to do the collection and cryopreservation without STD testing.

Depending on your treatment plan, additional consultations with our nurses, our billing department, or a psychologist may be necessary.

When arranging for your visit to our office, our nurses will inform you if additional testing or consultations will be necessary.
