    Dr Rinado was friendly and says "thank you so much". However, I just didn't feel comfortable around him or feel assured during the egg retrieval process. I asked a question post procedure, and he was quick to dismiss.

    Dr Rinaudo has monitored and made changes to reproductive health treatments, monitored lab values and ultrasounds, and made treatment decisions based upon the utmost attention to detail in overseeing my care.He informed me of the reasoning behind his treatment plans and answers all my queustions and is exceptionally nice and informative. A+++ care from dr Rinaudo and his coordination with fellows, nurses and the laboratory and his in person care

    Extremely happy with my whole experience. Drastically different experience from my previous clinic. Things were smooth, organized, clear, efficient, and care was empathetic. Thank you

    Dr. Rinaudo is an incredible physician, and I have been under his care for the past 6 months and his decision making and treatment plan have been 100% in my best interest and best possible outcomes for a pregnancy. He and his staff are a well run part of the reproductive endocrinology department with excellent communication.

    Visit felt rushed. Overall, I didn't feel fully informed about next steps. For example, I had to ask if I would be placed on medication which I would be. Taking time sensitive medication is a huge part of the process that I would expect my doctor to tell me up front. I wouldn't have known to ask If I didn't do my own research about the procedure online. I also needed to get blood work done, but that order wasn't placed for me. I had to ask the team to place the order the next day. Lastly, this comment applies to the team - there's inconsistency in information provided in their email vs the pdf documents that are provided which makes understanding instructions, next steps, etc very confusing.

    Overall very good experience about procedure day. Everything went very smoothly and every person interacted with is very friendly and professional. Since the operating doctor is different than treatment plan doctor, and not a choice of the patient, hard to determine whether to recommend doctor or not.
