    About our process

    If I could rate Dr. Mok-Lin a 6 I would! She's just the best. She was just chatting with us like we were old friends in a coffee shop while we waited for the shot to set in which made us feel so comfortable and connected. She is simply beyond amazing!

    The instructions and what to expect during the cycle were great. I fully understood the symptoms and expectations. However it was very unclear what type of symptoms are expected after the retrieval. I think providers should explain the entire process to patients before they begin and explain all the possible symptoms. Yes each patient is different but in general most of the symptoms are the same and patients should expect to have possible symptoms (more severe than pre-retrieval) for 1-2 weeks after retrieval. The entire process is 1 month long before the patient feels "normal" again and that was not well communicated. The process was fine overall but I felt as if I received information about possible symptoms bit by bit when I express discomfort rather than upfront.

    If I could give Dr. Mok-Lin a million stars I would. I cannot have imagined being in more capable kind knowledgeable and empathetic hands. She made us feel so calm and comfortable and cared for over and beyond what I've ever experienced with any doctor in my life! I will tell EVERYONE who will listen that she is THE person to see if they need fertility therapies. Our family will forever hold a special place in our hearts for Doctor Mok-Lin she is THE integral part of our baby journey.

    IVF is inherently a crappy experience; UCSF made it the best it could possibly be. I have every confidence that everything that could be done was done well and effectively.

    Dr. Mok-Lin was great when I changed plans to natural ivf. She explained my options and the possibility with the results. I would recommend any friends or family to Dr. Mok-Lin.

    Dr. Mok-Lin was kind attentive and advocated for me to be able to get my IUD replaced during the egg retrieval - she was fantastic!

    Dr Mok-Lin was great I wish I could have more interaction with her during my cycle
    Jan 28, 2023
    She was very patient and thorough and didn't make me repeat too many things I already put in my pre appointment paperwork. She referenced what I wrote in my paperwork and incorporated into the discussion. She had great analogies and explanations when I needed it.

    I got more in one appointment here than several years worth of appointments with my obgyn. Can't thank you enough!
    Aug 30, 2022
    After years of getting little to no helpful info from my OBGYN I was happy to talk with a doctor in depth about my issues. Thanks so much!

    It would be helpful to have a more holistic picture to see how many rounds of IVF that anticipate I might have

    This was an overall great experience and I loved that I could meet with Dr. Mok-Lin remotely without having to drive to the office in SF which is a 40-minute drive for me. Also I am so incredibly grateful for the amazing care and support that I've received from Dr Mok-Lin. I have so much trust and peace of mind with any guidance that I receive from her and feel truly lucky to be able to be her patient.

    My appointment was chock full of information. At no point did I feel overwhelmed or afraid to ask questions. I was treated with utmost respect and kindness and my partner was too!! I went into this appointment like a "deer in headlights" and came out of it with solid next steps and more confidence to achieve our baby-making goals :) I was also relieved to know the myriad of options available and left the office relieved knowing that not all of the weight was falling on just my shoulders.
