Reviews

The reviews on Google Business are overall very positive.

Patient Irina describes the Center for Fertility and Gynecology as the most reliable and successful clinic. The doctor and his staff are described as friendly and caring. Shiela's statement is similar. She switched from a different IVF clinic to Dr. Vermesh. She also describes the doctor as kind and patient. She got pregnant after her first cycle.

A different opinion has Martino. He describes his experience with the staff who, according to him, doesn't explain things properly and he had to correct their mistakes. He also criticizes the clinic's financing management. He was added additional tests and treatments for both egg donor and surrogate despite those being included in the package. His treatment didn't result in a pregnancy, either.
