Patient Testimonial
Dr. Plosker is amazing, caring, knows what he is doing and goes out of his way to make sure you’re comfortable and understand everything that is going on.

Dr. Plosker has been a very kind and understanding professional. We feel that Dr. Plosker always has our best interests in mind.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Dr. Plosker. We have been in his care for 3 years and while we have yet to successfully conceive, I know we will with our determination and his knowledge.

Dr. Plosker is very thorough and compassionate. He remained very positive that he could still help us be parents.

Dr. Plosker has a good bedside manner. He had a good fertility plan set up for me due to my specific medical background history.

Dr. Plosker always showed compassion and told us how it was without being harsh. He explained in detail what we would be doing and potential risks and outcomes.
