“We are from out of town, so our drive to KARMA was about 1.5 hours each way – I tell friends all the time that I would have driven double that time to experience the excellent care (and success!) we’ve had at KARMA. We have been patients at a total of three IVF clinics and our experience with Dr. Campanaro and her team was by far the best. Infertility and IVF is a stressful, uncertain reality for anyone enduring it, and the KARMA team understands this, and actually cares about the experience you have as a patient. This is just as important to me in the end as the actual success we had – which was creating multiple embryos AND we now have a tree month old son who is the brightest light in our life.
After a year of trying to conceive on our own, our first set of tests revealed that we were struggling with male factor infertility (unknown causes and so much social stigma made us feel really alone for a long time). We learned that IVF was our only option. The first two clinics we attended didn’t give us a lot of hope that we’d be able to create an embryo with my husband’s s***m so we had to let go of our expectations and leave it in the hands of science.
First of all, they blew us away by creating multiple embryos with my partner’s s***m – we couldn’t believe it, it honestly felt like a miracle! They always took the time to review and understand the nuances of our specific case. Through the ups and downs they were there with care and empathy, and hope for us! And maybe the best part – EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION (anyone on the IVF journey will quickly learn how important it is to feel heard, and well-informed, and the KARMA team excelled at this, from reception to embryology to the medical team). Many of the nurses know me and my husband by name, and took really good care of us during egg and s***m retrieval, to embryo transfer and everything in between. I always felt like my questions were finally being answered well, and they made ME finally feel empowered.
I wouldn’t trust my body or my precious embryos under the care of anyone else after being with KARMA, they will be our IVF team for the remainder of our fertility journey!”
