When you have tried all the possible ways and methods to conceive, you opt for IVF treatment. But you get cold feet listening to the name of IVF treatments since you might have some friends who have had bad experiences with these doctors at the so called IVF clinics. IVF is actually a procedure where the egg meets the sperm outside of the uterus through modern day medicine. This fusion is then installed inside the uterus and that increases chances of getting pregnant. The success of IVF has come a long way and with this instant success has come the fake doctors too. There are ways to make out a good IVF doctors from bad doctors and a good clinic from a bad one.

Below enumerated are a few tips to help you make your very important decision.

There are clinics run by doctors who are not even gynecologists. You never know which doctor brags about being an IVF expert and later turns out to be some dermatologist trying to have good money out of people in need. These situations make one very cautious. The best thing to do is ask lots of questions about the clinic and doctor and judge only by the proof given and not the word of mouth. Most of the doctors are part time doctors and spend most of their time delivering babies and the like; they do IVF as an additional service. Hence your first question should be the qualifications of the doctor with proof to justify the answer. These doctors thrive on the gullible attitude of the patients so patient needs to be extra careful on how they would deal with their doctor. Many hoax doctors do not give a full range of procedure. They might just charge you less, but they might also do half of the work there is to be done. The patient should remember that clinics and IVF doctors who cannot freeze the embryos are completely inadequate and need to be shut down.

There are plenty of signs from which one can distinguish a bad doctor from a good one. For example a bad doctor won’t give you a discharge summary at the end of the treatment. Also they would not show you the ultra sound or tell you how many eggs they are collecting from you. They will also not let you meet them twice and tell you to go to some other doctor every time you visit. A good doctor will as a rule involve both husband and wife in consultations, discussions and planning. He will offer advice and choices. He will have time to answer questions and offer support. He will also form a treatment plan for you, with a dialogue of justifiable alternatives, costs, time limits and expected success rates.

For each patient, their idea of the right IVF doctors will be diverse, which is why you need to spend time and energy in this search. You need to have a plan of how to go about finding the right IVF doctor for yourself and you can take any amount of time for this procedure as your future lies in his hands.
