But in hindsight, I wish they did more testing in the beginning instead of jumping into clomid without making sure I needed it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-803540 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:44:44 +0000 ineebee 803540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm glad to see no one despises their REs/NDs. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-802457 Thu, 23 May 2013 06:26:04 +0000 ineebee 802457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My RE is pretty great. I loved him at our consultation back in November, but I haven't seen much of him since. He's occasionally there at monitoring appointments, but I think it's just coincidence.</p> <p>For what it's worth, I really like our nurse. And if she's an extension of the care I'm getting from my RE, then I'm happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801834 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:08:55 +0000 spaniellove 801834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our first RE/clinic was very much a business. I appreciated that the doctors were pretty hands-on with my care, but they just weren't skilled enough with challenging situations.</p> <p>My current RE is the opposite - he's known for his specialized knowledge but his practice is a horrible mess. If he weren't pretty much the only doctor in the country who could treat my condition without IVF, I wouldn't be there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801810 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:51:06 +0000 KT326 801810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first one wasn't a good fit for me. I maybe saw him 3 times the entire year I was with him, I saw the nurse the rest of the time. He wasn't very aggressive with the treatments and I think that has to do with my age. I was 27 when we started the process and I feel like he felt I was young so I had time. He also didn't do an HSG or a SA for my DH.</p> <p>The second RE, I loved her. I saw her or one of the other RE's every single time I went in. Even if it was just an ultrasound check. She had us do the testing that the other dr didn't do. I felt much more comfortable there and would recommend them to anyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801799 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:43:44 +0000 swedishfish 801799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My RE is my unborn child's honorary third grandfather! I love him!</p> <p>ETA - I think I went through the process a little faster than others might have because I went to school with his son. But he is one of the top RE's in my area consistently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801797 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:42:47 +0000 raintreebee 801797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is brilliant but sometimes hard to communicate with. I also didn't trust his decisions at the beginning because he didn't fully explain them, but in retrospect his judgment is spot on.</p> <p>Update: I just got the nicest email from him that made me tear up. I truly think he is in a very noble profession--not much could be better than helping couples create life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801752 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:19:20 +0000 Happygal 801752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think mine is very competent, but not truly caring. I feel rushed and lacking in guidance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801738 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:12:05 +0000 marionberry 801738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved our RE and would recommend him to anyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-how-would-you-rate-your-rend#post-801688 Wed, 22 May 2013 16:52:41 +0000 ineebee 801688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious. :) </p>
