When you start reading reviews for IVF clinics--especially larger ones like Boston IVF--you'll see…read moreeverything from glowing five stars to stories of heartbreak. After going through it myself, I've learned that it's not really about the clinic itself. It's 100% about the team you work with. And if you're lucky enough to work with Dr. Emily Seidler and her incredible team then you've found the gold standard. We had a really difficult start at Boston IVF and came close to switching clinics entirely. The care we first received was impersonal and left us feeling completely lost. At first, we thought we could tolerate that if it got results--but over time, we realized our specific needs, questions, and goals weren't even being considered. The doctor was focused on what they assumed we wanted, rather than actually listening and working with us to maximize our outcomes. And then we met Dr. Seidler--and everything changed. Dr. Seidler is one of those incredibly rare people who is both deeply brilliant and genuinely kind. She doesn't just follow a set protocol--she pays attention. And I mean, really pays attention. When I did my first egg retrieval under a different doctor, we ended up with 7 eggs--and a massive insurance headache. We felt completely failed by the system. Then we met Dr. Seidler. She took the time to understand us--our goals, our history, our insurance limitations--and helped us make smart, thoughtful decisions that were truly in our best interest. Under her care, my next retrieval produced 22 eggs. That wasn't luck--that was her tracking how my body was responding and adjusting the protocol with care and precision. She stayed engaged, curious, and genuinely invested. She noticed things. She remembered things. She made us feel like we actually mattered--not just as patients, but as people. That kind of brilliance and humanity in one person? It's honestly a unicorn-level combo. And then there's Robin and Nikki, the two amazing nurses who make up the rest of this dream team. These women are absolute rocks. IVF is emotional, confusing, and full of logistical twists and turns, and they helped us navigate all of it with so much grace, clarity, and PATIENCE. They fielded every voicemail, email, and question (and yes, I had many!), and always responded with such kindness and patience, like I wasn't being overwhelming--even when I 100% was. Their kindness didn't come from a script--it came from presence. From actual care. And you can feel the difference. Thanks to this team, I felt supported, seen, and in incredibly capable hands at every stage. Their combination of expertise, compassion, and steadiness helped me stay grounded through a process that is anything but predictable. They didn't just guide me through treatment--they held me through it, with so much heart. And now, after three egg retrievals and three embryo transfers, I'm sitting here, 20 weeks pregnant, feeling this little baby kicking (!!) as I type--and the gratitude I feel is hard to put into words. I know I will carry this team's impact with me for the rest of my life. Dr. Seidler, Robin, and Nikki didn't just help us get here--they gave us the gift of feeling truly cared for in the most vulnerable moments. I will never forget what they've done for our family. If you're wondering whether Boston IVF is right for you--my honest advice is this: don't just look at the clinic, look at who you'll be working with. The right team makes all the difference. And with Dr. Seidler and her team, you'll be in the best possible hands. Their care changed everything for us.

I recently completed a 3-month course of Wellness Coaching with Rachel Gargano. It turned out to be…read morea surprisingly incredible investment...in myself. It seemed like so much in my life was just wrong. I was feeling depressed, overweight and frustrated with myself for not being more accomplished in my life. Can you say low self-esteem? But part of my problem was not knowing what I wanted to accomplish. When I found Rachel, I went to her with the vague notion that I wanted something to change in my life. In fact, I wanted a lot of changes. Basically I set "improve my life" as a 3 month goal. I wanted to feel positive about myself, I wanted a sense of fulfillment. But Rachel didn't back away from my ambiguous needs. Methodically, week by week, she helped me identify the sources of my distress and set targeted mini-goals to work on tackling the issues I had. My personal experience started and ended with an emphasis on nutrition. I was overweight and unhappy. But with each appointment with Rachel, we uncovered a realm of issues that were unexpected and varied and entirely managed by Rachel's expertise! I was amazed that she had so much more to offer than nutritional advice. She dealt with my blues and my lack of motivation with calming advice and that list of weekly mini-goals that were doable, imminently helpful and always on track with my vision for the positive person that I wanted to become. Who knew that a gratitude exercise could make me appreciate my life? Rachel did. Daily, she had me write down 3 things that I was grateful for. This task turned out to be one of the most eye-opening for me. Try it! One thing that I registered every week was Rachel's non-judgmental attitude toward me and my problems! I never felt inhibited by what her reactions to my needs might be. From the beginning, I felt I could trust her and in turn I was able to honestly face my difficulties. It has been quite a journey and as of today I've lost 8 lbs and could not feel more positive about the direction of my life. I have optimism again but more importantly, I have tools in place not only to counteract negativity, but to actively work on positive change. An unexpected upshot to this whole experience has been my husband's involvement with "our" new way of life. He's lost 15 lbs and we plan our meals and exercise with a brand new sense of togetherness. I certainly didn't expect that. Rachel's Nutrition and Wellness coaching was so much more than I bargained for. It was a weekly boost that set me up for life.

For the 99.9% of you who haven't read my other reviews, I *reeeeeally* can't handle venipuncture. The thing about fertility treatment, though, is that once you start messing around with medications, there's more phlebotomy than you can shake even a dozen butterfly needles at. It's a close call, but I *DO* want my existing child to have a sibling more than I want to avoid blood draws forever, so into the breach I have gone. And you know what? The phlebotomists here have been *so good.* Quick, kind, gentle, understanding, & in two months' time I haven't been butchered once. (A special shout-out to Stephanie at the Dedham location, too, for being the first person to draw my blood after that Quest New Brighton debacle--& she did a beautiful, painless job! I'm not a difficult draw for people who know what they're doing.) So on the (extreme) off-chance it's your aversion to phlebotomy that holding you back from seeking fertility treatment...fear not. You're safe here.
