Before we had even completed any testing recommended by Dr. Medica, she told us during the first appointment that “we would likely need to do IUI for a first pregnancy” despite not having any test results to support that recommendation at the time. At first, she seemed to have very good bedside manner, and I was impressed with reviews regarding Dr. Medica that I had read online, but just like everyone else at this clinic, she clearly is out to just make a profit and to try and push as many fertility treatments as she possibly can.
Dr. Medica was incredibly educated at all the possibilities and experienced at the type of questions we would have, making us feel much more confident. Lastly, she truly cared about our situation as if we were long term friends and I think that is a beautiful thing to find in a doctor these days.
Very knowledgeable and a lot of help
Dr. Médica is and has been amazing since day one. She has made me feel so comfortable in many ways during an emotionally challenging time in my life. Fertility work is special, she’s definitely in the right field.
