    My husband and I had been trying to conceive naturally for about a year when we learned that I had…read morelow AMH and high FSH, indicating a lower egg count than typical for my age and making natural conception more challenging. We discovered Spring Fertility online and ultimately decided to move forward with Dr. Okeigwe as our provider. After reading the many positive reviews--and now having experienced their care firsthand--we have nothing but great things to say about the entire team. The journey was not easy, and we certainly faced our share of trials and tribulations. Although I often worried about whether it would work, Dr. Okeigwe consistently reassured me and expressed complete confidence that we would be able to achieve a successful pregnancy. I went through three rounds of IVF, and with each round she adjusted the approach, resulting in better outcomes every time. We ultimately needed two transfers, but they led to our baby boy, who is now seven weeks old. The team's confidence truly helped ease the anxiety I felt throughout the process. In addition to Dr. Okeigwe, my nurse, Megan--who worked closely with me from start to finish--was incredibly patient and supportive. I reached out to her on weeknights and weekends, and she always responded promptly and appropriately. She never made me feel uncomfortable or uninformed, no matter how big or small my questions were. The front desk staff was consistently kind, and the medical assistants who handled my blood draws were wonderful as well. I would wholeheartedly recommend Spring Fertility to any family member or friend because of the exceptional experience I had. Thank you for helping bring our miracle baby into the world!

    It's been a few years now since I was a patient at Spring, and I want to share my terrible…read moreexperience at this clinic in hopes that it will be helpful to other people in my situation who are seeking compassionate and competent treatment. My spouse and I sought out Spring specifically because they like to position their clinics as experts in LGBTQ+ family planning, and claim to have expertise treating transgender and nonbinary people. My spouse is a nonbinary person on hormone replacement therapy, and it was extremely important to us to find a clinic and a doctor with some experience treating trans people. We were referred to Dr. Dovey as the clinic's "LGBTQ expert," and I went into my first consult with her having high hopes for a good experience. During that consult, Dr. Dovey misgendered my spouse every single time she referred to them. To give her credit where credit is due, she would correct herself, and then misgender them again two sentences later, correct herself, and so on and so forth. At the point at which someone misgenders you ten times in a row, you really start to wonder if they are even trying to get it right, especially when the person in question is supposed to be the organization's "LGBTQ expert." Dr. Dovey also proposed a lot of unnecessary measures with regards to my spouse, like stopping their hormone treatments to collect even more genetic materials from them (when they had already cryopreserved more than the recommended amount of reproductive materials prior to the beginning of their transition). Ultimately, it felt like Dr. Dovey didn't actually care about trans people, understanding trans experiences in medical settings, or my spouse's individual experience at the clinic. My spouse had a range of experiences with other staff at the clinic, from being gendered correctly to other people misgendering them. Not a particularly great sign from a place that is supposed to be "good" about trans issues! Even so, we might have tried to stick with Spring, but they also messed up pretty badly in another area. Like many people who wind up in fertility clinics, I have some chronic health conditions. Most of them are not genetic and are not genetically transmissible. However, I do have one very rare genetic mutation that results in lower bone density than the average person my age. IF my spouse were to be a carrier for the same very rare genetic mutation, it MIGHT cause a child of ours to experience a similar condition. I want to be clear that in my day-to-day life, this condition does not really affect me negatively and I have no reason to think about it unless I'm discussing my medical history. While we were in the initial steps of our process at Spring, Dr. Dovey and her staff repeatedly communicated to me that they would essentially require my spouse to have a very particular genetic test done (one so specific that my spouse's PCP could not order it and would have had to refer them to a genetic specialist to do so) to ensure that any potential embryos we created would not have this condition. The clinic refused to move forward with our process until my spouse got the testing done, and it really came across as "we don't want your potential child to turn out like YOU." Which, to be honest, felt insulting, gross, policing, and completely unnecessary. It really didn't feel like the clinic's business or call whether we chose to get the genetic testing done or not, but Spring absolutely made it their call. This is what really killed any chances of our working with Spring, and we just quietly dropped out of the process. Spring comes across as a clinic that cares a lot about its numbers and success rates, and a place that doesn't have a problem throwing up roadblocks for people whose health conditions might possibly impact how good their numbers look. For chronically ill and disabled people, this kind of vibe essentially sends the message "we don't care about you and we don't really want to treat you." At least, that's the way I felt after my experience at Spring. People and organizations can change, and I hope that in the years since I attempted to be a patient there, Dr. Dovey and Spring have improved. In fact, I know people who have had positive experiences with Dr. Dovey and Spring! However, based on my personal experience of this clinic, I can't recommend her as a practitioner or the clinic as a safe space for trans people or chronically ill and disabled people. If you belong to one of those groups, do your research, interview clinics and ask about their training and experience with these patient populations, and go from there -- but don't go to Spring.

RSC refused to help, saying that they don't keep records (and unfortunately, donor conception clinics are not required to do so anywhere in the USA). It turns out that related issues ARE in the family history (NOT known at the time of donation, so they weren't in the records my parents received, but many years later), but I did not get to find that out from RSC. This endangered my life, and they did not care at all. This could happen to your family too! Please protect your children by not using an anonymous donor, so that they have access to ACCURATE AND UPDATED medical information. Nowhere in America are clinics required to verify the medical information that donors report, and they are not required to keep records, so you MUST do that work for your family yourself by choosing an open ID or known donor. Then even if RSC refuses to help you, you can keep your child alive and healthy. Their doctors are great, at least in my family's experience, but their ethics and their approach to donor conception are not.

At first, I was so nervous about this procedure because I hate needles, and I didn't know if I would be treated like a human being. I've wanted to freeze my eggs for a while because I haven't found my life partner yet. So, I wanted to make sure that I had options for my future. Thank you to everyone at Oakland Spring Fertility for giving me such a fantastic experience. But, I especially want to thank Dr. Okeigwe for guiding me through the process of freezing my eggs. She's a GEM, and it's so rare to find a Black fertility doctor. I was and still am ECSTATIC that she was my doctor! She took such great care of me, and I was informed every step of the way of who, what, where, and why of everything I needed to know. Dr. Okeigwe even helped me heal a trigger. I had an abortion when I was 20 years old, and unfortunately, the doctor and nurses treated me like an animal and pinned me down while they did the procedure. So from there on, every time I went to an OBGYN and put my legs up, I would go into shock from that experience. I never thought that trigger was going to be healed. But, because Dr. Okeigwe listened to my story, answered all my questions, and equipped me with all of my options, the trigger began to go away. It got to the point where I would come in for a check-up, and we would laugh, and before I knew it, I was already lying down, looking up at all of my eggs progressing. This is why representation matters, and I know for a fact that I would not have received a better experience anywhere else. Give this woman a raise and hire more diverse fertility doctors!

    I thought the doctors were good and thorough and new what they were talking about but no one else…read moredid. They also would not tailor the experience to you. For example- i did not need a bunch of the genetic tests but not inly did I have to have them done but dine with a specific company. I also had to speak with a specific therapist they contracted with which screams kick back to me and was really expensive. There are alot of ways to have therapy and I would not be surprised if many people with fertility concerns already have a therapist. Similarly I work at a hospital and do not need training on how to use a needle but there is a required course on it. The biggest issue I had was no one but the doctors new the plan. So when you call in for refills they may be reading off an algorithm and have no idea what you need and do not need. I transferred care to a different fertility clinic and had a much better experience and they also had all sorts of discounts for self pay patients, would have as much done by your insurance as possible ( like having an in network person order your labs or do your ultrasounds) and since it was a larger location they were doing alot of research. Once again the doctors are great but the rest of the team and/or the algorithm they use to treat you was not.

    Our experience with Spring Fertility was disappointing from start to finish. We came in hopeful,…read morebut quickly realized this clinic was not the right fit for us as a same-sex couple. We've spoken with multiple people who have used their services, and the feedback is truly mixed--some had good experiences, others barely satisfactory and some were REALLY BAD. Unfortunately, ours fell on the negative end. If you are a heterosexual couple, you may have a smoother experience. However, as a same-sex couple, we did not feel welcomed or supported. We've since connected with five other LGBTQ couples who shared very similar concerns, which says a lot about a pattern rather than a one-off experience. Our doctor, Dr. Nam Tran, came across as arrogant and condescending which has the same tones in some of the other reviews on this platform. At multiple points, we felt like we were wasting his time rather than being valued patients during what is already a very emotional and vulnerable process. He was late and then proceeded to say he has another appointment and we didn't get the full time. We constantly had to call the clinic because they don't call back after leaving a message from the previous week. We always were on time for our appointments and were always delayed to be taken in. While the clinic may now have an LGBTQ staff member, that alone does not make the environment inclusive or affirming. Our experience did not reflect meaningful change or genuine understanding. We ultimately decided to leave and seek care elsewhere, which was the best decision for us. For anyone considering this clinic, we strongly recommend doing thorough research. There are lawsuits filed in 2025 in California alleging negligence and embryo loss, with concerns raised about prioritizing profit over patient care. These are serious issues and worth looking into before making such an important decision. We would not recommend this clinic to LGBTQ couples seeking compassionate, respectful fertility care. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED AND ADVISED of this company! Take your business and $$ elsewhere where you are respected of your time and your self worth. https://www.dailyjournal.com/article/384511-venture-capital-s-role-in-ivf-clinics-under-fire-in-lawsuits

The issues I had with RMA - Much worse results - I had significantly worse results with them both in top of funnel eggs as well as embryos (ended with 0 viable embyros with them) - with Spring, both cycles resulted in viable embryos (8 over 2 cycles). - No personalized care. I did not meet my assigned doctor once. Every visit was with a different person who did not know me. It felt very transactional. - They did not prep my cycle at all. They just told me to start taking the meds based on when I told them my period was. With Spring, they measured a lot about me and then gave me prescription in advance of the main meds. It felt much more organized. The result was that my follicles developed at a similar rate, resulting in more eggs. With RMA, my follicles developed at different rates, so I had fewer mature ones at the same time. - A smaller thing, but I think symbolic of the broader disorganization, when I went in to get blood tests, they forgot to do one, and called me to come back later that day. It felt very disorganized. - They continued to charge me for over a year later for storage of my embryos that they told me were not viable. They also stored my partner's sperm, which we did not want. They made it so hard to cancel the payments for this. I'm still getting notices from them a year later, after the terrible exerience, for billing for storing my partner's sperm, which we never wanted them to store. I tried very hard to get this overall payment canceled for storage which we never wanted, but I ended up just paying because I could not figure out their convoluted process to get out of the billing and get a full refund and just wanted to be done with them. After that, I just got a notice for renewal for next year! I can't believe. They are so disorganized. It's like kicking me wile I'm down to have a terrible outcomes with them and then continue to charge me a recurring payment hat I've tried so hard to get out out. This is what finally prompted me to post a review. Advice to management - if you really are about patient experience. Have more personal attention. Have your patients see the same doctor each time, like Spring does. Take more care on how you prep patients to have their follicles mature at the same rate, like Spring does. Make your billing reasonable and empathetic - don't charge people to storage embryos after you told them they are not viable, make it easy to get out of your recurring fees if people don't want your services.

At best, I can say that she's not a trauma-informed provider and seems to be a stereotypical surgeon with zero bedside manner and an ego the size of Canada. At worst, it seems like she may not actually care about her patients at all beyond seeing them as potential stats with which to bolster her career and her own self-image. My experience with her was truly loathsome and I don't wish one like it on any other patient. It took five more years of excruciating pain and going to another KP district, out of her sphere of influence, to get the care that I'd needed for 20 years at that point. To that surgeon, it was perfectly obvious that I needed surgical intervention. All was explained by the crap she later hauled out of me. It took a surgeon willing to be curious, to listen, and to believe what she was hearing. Eve Zaritsky did not have any of those in her at that consult nor in the communication that followed; she was nothing short of a cold, abrupt, impatient, gas-lighting troll. Far from being a healer, she did damage to me that day and later refused to take any responsibility for her words and actions. Suffice it to say, I'm not a fan.

After about four months of struggling with PPD, I made the decision to pursue permanent birth control a decision I now deeply regret. I was told by Dr. Cheruba Prabakarthat my tubes could not be tied and that they had to be removed. During the consultation, she asked if I wanted more children. At the time, while clearly struggling emotionally, I said no. She stated that since I was 39, it was a good age for this procedure if I did not want more children. I understand that the decision was 100% mine, however the state of mind I was in was not capable of making a life-changing, irreversible decision. I strongly believe that when working with women -- especially postpartum women -- it is a physician's responsibility to recognize warning signs of postpartum depression and emotional distress and to implement safeguards in their practice. What I needed at that time was help and support for my PPD, not a permanent procedure that altered my body forever. Instead, the process felt quick and not thorough. There was no screening for postpartum depression, no encouragement to wait, and no discussion about how temporary emotional states can affect long-term decisions. Now, three years later, I am 42 years old and desperately want another child. Time is running out. I am now facing IVF, with no guarantee that my insurance will cover it since this is considered a decision I made for myself. My eggs are older, the odds are lower, and the emotional and financial burden is overwhelming. I wish there had been more caution, more counseling, and more time given before moving forward. I also hope that by sharing this experience, changes can be made so that another woman in a vulnerable postpartum state is not placed in this position. I am beyond sad and angry about my situation, I wish i could of tide my tubes and maybe reversal would of been an option now there is nothing absolutely nothing i can do. and time is running out.

His kindness, understanding, and the overall quality of care I received were more than I could have hoped for. Everything turned out so much better than I imagined, and I am so grateful to have had him as my surgeon. I would recommend him without hesitation.
