Reproductive Medicine Associates Bellevue

First of all, if you’re reading this review and you’ve come to RMA, your journey here might not have been an easy one. So I know how important being able to trust your doctor and care team through this process. I was lucky enough to find Dr. Liu and team this year after thinking about egg freezing for many years. For context I’m 32 and I first got testing done with SRM when I was 28. I wasn’t able to get SRM on the phone when I was really looking into this process, and RMA Seattle answered immediately and got me scheduled so quickly! I absolutely love the staff at both Bellevue and Seattle locations — they are all so sweet, warm and helpful. Paulina is wonderful, and Dr, Liu is a wealth of information and very kind. Repeated bloodwork isn’t fun, but the ladies somehow had me smiling and laughing each appt. Location wise, it’s also been perfect for me to get monitoring appointments done downtown Seattle before work (use SpotHero for $4 parking in the garage) and im so impressed with the brand new Bellevue office, which is where I’ll be going through the egg freezing procedure today. It’s super clean, modern, and has feminine and warm decor. If I had to pick a place where my future children would hang out, this would be it!This will be my 2nd egg freezing cycle with Dr. Liu and I had great results my first time. although it’s not EASY, the RMA team make the process much smoother. I had no hesitation doing this process twice with them. Being a Mom has always been my dream and I’m so grateful that I found RMA to make that dream come true one day.

TL;DR - If you are low AMH (diminished ovarian reserve) this is the place for you!This is going to be long but I feel that sharing everything will help others make a better decision (to come here).I am 39 years old and have extremely low AMH. Women with low AMH respond poorly to IVF meds. My failed attempt (at SRM) we were only able to get 3 follicles to grow. The follicles grew way too big (egg quality isn’t good when they are too big) and way too fast. I unexpectedly ovulated on day 6 and that cycle/attempt was cancelled.We made some clinic changes (tried ORH, which was terrible) and eventually ended up at RMA (YAY).After meeting Dr Lin here at RMA we decided DuoStim (2 IVFs in one cycle) was the best thing we could do to increase my odds for more eggs - which also increases our odds for a euploid embryo. Read up on the benefits of duostim.Do everything Dr Lin suggests.Dr Lin recommended I do acupuncture for fertility, specifically focusing on egg quality. Women who do acupuncture have 10% higher birth rates than women who do not. I was able to get about 1.5-2 months in of acupuncture before retrievals and we truly believe this was part of our success (other parts being Dr Lin and her team.Also - Taylor and Annika (you will see and talk with them a lot) are wonderful and truly care about their patients.Cycle 1Dr Lin knew we needed to do things differently than what happened during my failed cycle at SRM which made a huge difference.We were able to get 5 mature eggs on our first stim cycle. For someone who has low AMH this is HUGE! This is a 60% increase from my previous failed cycle. Of the 5, 4 fertilized, of the 4 that fertilized 3 became blastocysts, of the 3 blasts, 2 are euploid! (perfect). I could not be happier with these results.Cycle 2We ended up with 7 eggs this time! HUGE increase! 5 fertilized, 3 blasts.We’re still a few days out from find out final results of cycle 2.I am very much looking forward to implantation and being pregnant! Words cannot express how happy I am with our results. Thank you Dr Lin & her amazing team.

The nurses and staff were kind and very good at educating us on the process and next steps
