This review is well overdue for one of the best Medical Professionals I've ever met. Dr. Bailey helped make my dreams come true and I am now 4 months pregnant because of her!
My story: (It's long but important!) For 3 years I asked my OBGYN to assist me in getting pregnant and she kept saying "just wait, it'll happen." I asked her to check my blood, fine. Check my hormone levels, perfect. Do an ultrasound, check check check. For 3 years I was told that everything was "fine" and it'll happen naturally.. I went to a fertility specialist. There, they wanted to put me on Clomid and other drugs to help me ovulate more. Well, ovulation isn't my issue...everything is normal, so why do I have to take a drug with several terrible side effects? I went to a another specialist and he pushed Clomid on me, just like everyone kept saying. I finally gave in..and I gained 18 lbs and went crazy! Clomid made me psychologically ill. It made me sad and depressed, even worse it mimics the signs of pregnancy so you aren't even sure if you are pregnant or not. The doctor never really explained how bad it could really be..and when I went back and complained about how I felt, he said "well, next time I'll just monitor you. Let's try it again." Really. Uh..bye.
Months went by and I did research online. I even went back to my OB and asked for her to check all of my hormones and that something may be off. She ran another blood test and same results; everything was normal. She then suggested I take Clomid! I literally wanted to scream because I already told her how horrible the effects were on me! No medical professionals were hearing anything I said...
Online I found out about taking a saliva test. From that site you have to have a medical professional receive the results and read them to you. That's how I found Dr. Bailey! I called literally 10 offices. If I had a bad vibe, I didn't make the appointment. I had already seen an acupuncturist before, too, so I was a little weary on whether or not it would be effective; and I had terrible communication issues because the ones I went to had strong accents. Either way, I chose an office that was right by my house. I wasn't satiated, so I made one more call and that's when I called Dr. Bailey's office. Jan answered and literally from me asking one question she said "I can hear it in your voice." What she was referencing was my sadness from feeling like no one could help me. It was just what I needed from someone at that time and she and I ended up talking for 30 minutes. I told her everything and she was so caring and so sweet. I couldn't believe it. I ended up setting an appt with Dr. Bailey's office, in addition to the office that was right near my house. I had to wait because it was Thanksgiving and I was going out of town. I took the saliva test as instructed and mailed it out while on vacation. When I returned, Dr. Bailey took it upon herself to call me. Before my appointment! Why? I have no idea, but it was so kind and sweet. She and I spoke and she was so amazing and patient. Once we spoke, I felt that I didn't want to go to the other office anymore. I decided to just choose her because I got that feeling from her that I had been looking for. Plus, her office staff was so kind to me and sweet; something you miss in a medical office.
Sooo long story short... I met with Dr. Bailey and she was everything I had been searching for. My first appt was very thorough. I had done other research online and started taking supplements and Dr. Bailey knew every single one and agreed that it was good that I was taking them. Finally I felt Validated. She and I discussed my medical background, too. She also gave me some herbs to help me out. The saliva test indicated I needed Progesterone, which I got from Dr. Bailey's office,too. (Meanwhile, 3 docs couldn't discover that, including 2 fertility docs)
After literally 1.5 MONTHS I WAS PREGNANT!!!! I saw Dr. Bailey in December, my hubby and I conceived NATURALLY on January 31!! (yes, I do know the conception date!!)
I believe Dr. Bailey was my only hope to get pregnant and I know it was her practice and her herbs/progesterone that got me there! I can't wait to put my baby's pic on her wall!! I love love love this office!!
I can't thank them enough and I hope no one waits as long as I did to go see her. She is truly the best!!!!!! read more
