We're been trying unsuccessfully of the past year or so... despite taking Serophene to help regulate my ovulation and monitoring the "Surge" days with the ovulation kit. My Spore doc says next step is for my hubby to get tested and for me to go for daily scans during my probable ovulation days.
Appreciate if anyone's recommendations, doc contact details if possible and docs's fees ie consultation, scans and IVF treatments.
Many thanks in advance. :)

Prof. Chris Haines at the Prince of Wales Hospital. I've seen him help dozens of coupled who are trying to conceive & of course with good results! He also consults in Dr. Lucy Lord's clinic at Baskerville House, Central. Once a week, I think.

I second Dr Stevenson. He is amazing - but then again he got me pregnant with boy girl twins after I had been trying for over 2.5 years so I might be biased:). If you have any questions I would be more that happy to help. Good luck!

Dr William So of Premier Medical Centre, Suite 718-733, Central Building, 1 Pedder Street, Tel: 36511718.
I have used Dr Doo for many months last year without success. My experience with Dr Doo is he is too busy plus too rely on injection of hormone. He does not check you too thouroughly before putting you on drugs. As for Dr So, he used to be the pioneer doctor in Queen Mary's IVF Centre. Came out to have his own practice. He is into research so you will be having a lot of time and attention from him. I got pregnant not from IVF. When I switched from Do Doo to him late last year, he refused to start IVF cycle with me as I am not ready. Fortunately we conceived naturally after seeing him for 2 months. But I have 2 other friends with him from IVF. One with twins and one with a boy.

Dr Stevenson is good, easy to get appts even at short notice (unlike some of the others like Dr Ghosh who have 2 weeks waiting times), schedules appts at easy 20-30 minute intervals so does not rush you, knows his stuff. He's aggressive with treatment so think about whether that is what u want. He's also pricey - $1850 per consult, $800 per scan. IUI with him costs $12-15000 per cycle and IVF $60-75000 per cycle. I heard good things about Philip Ho but when I was looking for a dr he could not see me for 2 weeks (maybe bad timing) so I did not end up seeing him.

The absolute best is Dr Philip Ho. Sometimes lacks a bit of bed side manner, but everyone swears by him. He did wonders for me and a number of my friends.

Hi - you mentioned monitoring your ovulation surge days with ovulation test kits. Have you tried charting your body basal temperature, and also noting your discharge? I have found the book Taking Charge of Your Fertilty to be a real revelation, and it goes into details about charting and understanding your ovulation.
Let me knwo how you go!

I am very happy with Dr. Stevenson too. What I like about him is exactly how SA described. Plus his assistant Michelle and Pearly are just great. They will give you a call if your appo will delay even for 10 minutes.

Hi Highlander, please could you private message me with your experience with Dr W So? I have consulted him recent ~ he is nice but the waiting time in the clinic is always so long and his nurses could be better .......a few incidents which made me wonder if this is the normal practice of the nurses in HK....
Please support our advertisers:
Hi Graceful/Highlander ~ I am new to this forum, do I have to post my email address here to get private message from you regarding your exp with Dr So ? Thanks !!

hi
dr phillip ho gets my vote as well.
when you say "best", you probably mean best results, the dr that is most likely to get you a "live take home baby".
if i can offer you some A$$vice: when choosing your fertility dr, look at the lab she/he works out of. meet the embryologist. ask questions like:
1) how many embryos do you freeze per straw
2) do you do three or five day transfer? why or why not?
3) how do you grade embryos?
4) do you perform icsi?
ask your doctor how often you will be monitored as you go through the first half of your cycle. how often will your estrogen be checked via blood tests and how often will there be ultrasounds?
clinic results and statistics are important, but easy to skew. many clinics will say "we have a 60 per cent success rate"...but they don't take into the equation all the MANY cycles that never make it to transfer due to poor response, over stimulation, etc.
do your research. by posting here it shows you are into research, and i really recommend you continue finding out more about IVF, the differing drug protocols and how often you need to be monitored.
to find out more about ivf cycles, i recommend:
ivillage.com
fertilefriends.com
ivfconnections.com
resolve.org
as well, if you google "ivf" you will get dozens of blogs and websites on the protocols, etc.
GOOD LUCK to you. post again if you have more questions. if you can't tell...i have been in your shoes.

Hi Hopeimp, sorry for my late reply. I seldom comes in here to check. If need be, you can PM me.
Yes, I felt also the nurses were not so polite and lack alittle professionalism, especially this is a private clinic. We were made to meet up with Dr So at his clinic after we had seen him at Prolivf. The nurses in Prolivf were very caring .
Putting this aside, Dr So is very detail in his examination and would explain to you very clearly.
PM me if you would like to know more.

Hi Everyone,

Fortunately (*grin*), I wont be seeing any docs cos I'm finally pregnant.....conceived naturally on a stress-free holiday in Bali...so maybe that's the best "treatment".... :)
