Patient Testimonial
We enjoyed and trusted Dr. Johnston so much after the birth of our first son that we decided that even after moving to the west coast it was worth flying across the country to be cared for by her again.

I adore Dr. Tidey. I have seen many RE’s and he is by far the most gentle, precise and will do all he can to help you succeed.

Dr. Shah is personable and friendly which makes the experience much easier.

I would highly recommend anyone to Dr. Edelstein! He was so great throughout the whole process of trying to conceive.

Dr. Johnston has a really warm and compassionate approach without being condescending.

Dr. Tidey is a compassionate, highly intelligent, highly skilled physician and I would recommend him to anyone having fertility issues.

I remember the first ultrasound that I had to determine how my baby was doing. Dr. Edelstein and his nurse just giggled and said, ‘It’s twins!’. They are now seven and in first grade, losing teeth, playing sports, and being happy!! Thanks again!!!

I wish I were able to give him more than 5 stars. Dr. Shah is a rare find.

What is infertility?

Infertility affects both women and men. Traditionally, a fertility specialist will assume infertility is present based on the following definition. When a woman is:

  • Under 35 with regular cycles, unprotected intercourse and no pregnancy after 1 year
  • 35 to 39 with regular cycles, unprotected intercourse and no pregnancy after 6 months
  • 40 or over with regular cycles, unprotected intercourse, more immediate evaluation and treatment are warranted
