Dr Kolb and his team- Nancy and Mayra are gift to anyone (couples or singles) who wish to have the most caring, patient and professional team in this emotionally journey. They are simply the best and I can t describe how grateful I am for them! Thank you so much for everything! You guys are the BEST!!!
I have a couple of hang-ups about my experience that left me unsatisfied with my care. I definitely didn't love the direction my dr went with my infertility, blaming my inability to get pregnant on my weight constantly throughout our consult even though I am not overweight. She really wanted to push Ivf without trying anything else first and I wasn't ready to go that drastic at the beginning of my fertility journey. There was some other things, but I ended my care with them ultimately and found a different specialist.
NOW. My major hang up is the bill we received to pay for the testing of COVID antibodies in my husbands blood work. We did not ask them to do this. We were not informed they would be doing this. It has nothing to do with my husband's fertility and should not have been done without our permission and now we have to pay $ for it out of pocket. We've tried calling countless times to dispute this just to either be told someone would call us back (they never do) or to be ignored completely. Very unhappy about this.
This was our first time going through IVF, and we were nervous and skeptical at the beginning. But we trusted Dr. Kolb, Nancy, and the rest of team at HRC to help us. It turns out that we had nothing to worry about. We were actually surprised by how smoothly everything went. We appreciated that Dr. Kolb was present at every single one of our appointments. And Nancy was always available by email/phone, even on weekends, to answer any questions we had. The more questions we asked, the more comfortable we felt, and Dr. Kolb and Nancy did a great job answering all our questions quickly and clearly. We always felt well informed and prepared each step of the way. Now we are pregnant and would like to thank Dr. Kolb, Nancy, and everyone at HRC for taking good care of us.
In four months I will be age of 40 .I did embryo transfer second time on Dec22th , yesterday was the 14th day I did a blood check. Turns out Im pregnant. I am very happy to share this great news with all fertility moms , be positive , be confident if I can, you can too . I am so happy that I find HRC fertility in Pasadena and a special thanks to Dr Wilcox, and my nurse Tiffany. They are both amazing , very well educated for older age women. The entire team at HRC is very welcoming and supportive. Words are not able to thank them enough for all they have done for us. God bless you, you made our family complete.
Dr. Kolb and his team member, Nancy, were amazing!
I came to HRC Pasadena for IVF between Dec20 - May21.
Before I became pregnant, I was worried if I could be someone's mom.
Nancy was always supportive and caring of me.
Her email responses were so quick and nice, so I could feel relieved and trust her.
After my 1st egg retrieval, I got pregnant naturally. My baby will be delivered in 3 more months.
(On that cycle that I got pregnant, I also went to acupuncture that they refer to me. It helped a lot as well.)
Even when I got pregnant naturally, they were blessing me.
I highly recommend Dr. Kolb and his team!
Thank you so much for your help.
Dr. Bradford is the most kind and compassionate doctor I have ever worked with. I have been an egg donor several times and he surpassed all expectations.
I'm a patient of Dr. Kolb and I was successful the 1st try! He is a WONDERFUL physician and was informative and pleasant the entire journey. I have twin newborns thanks to this man! I also have 6 embryos in the freezer. Dr Kolb is the best physician to guide u through this emotional journey.
My wife and I feel so fortunate to have worked with Dr. Nelson, Connie, and the rest of the HRC Pasadena team.
From day 1, we felt very informed and prepared for our IUI procedure. We went in over a year before we wanted to start the baby trying process just to be prepared as much as possible (mentally, physically, and financially). From the first day meeting Dr. Nelson and the team, I began taking prenatal vitamins, CoQ10 and started eating healthier-ish.
Our very first try was in Oct 2020 and it was successful! I'm now 14 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby. In case you're curious, I'm 32 years old with my first pregnancy with no known fertility issues.
As an LGBTQ couple, we wanted to find a place that was very LGBTQ friendly. Most of California is friendly luckily so it wasn't too hard to find many places but we felt most comfortable here.
My wife was able to hear the first heartbeat of the baby, otherwise, I did have to go it alone in the other appointments because of COVID restrictions.
A couple shout outs:
Connie was AMAZING and made me feel like we were family friends.
The woman drawing my blood each time (Russian or Polish??) she was so sweet too.
Thank you Team Nelson!
We highly recommend HRC Fertility Pasadena! We'll be back in a couple years for my wife's pregnancy.
I have done it before. They are very polite, but their working method is not good. They did it without a good physical examination. The nurse said that the quality of my eggs was not good. If I improved, she said that there was no improvement. She directly asked me to donate eggs. It was irresponsible, so I was very disappointed with this hospital!
Dr.Kolb and his team are amazing.i cant even explain how passionate and dedicated Dr Kolb and Mayra,the nurse were during the 6 months that I worked with them.i would like to give them 10 star.Mayra always picked up the phone even after working hours and answered all my questions patiently. Dr.Kolv is extremely knowledgeable ,nice and sweet.
