If you are seeking one of the most thorough OB\GYN exams to cover your entire history, this may be the place for you and your family. It is rare to have some who really knows how to assess hormones, especially the impact on fertility. It is also incredibly convenient to raise other medical needs in the same appt and have someone who can see possible connections between your endocrine, hormonal and other systems that often impact each other. It is rare to find someone who will take the time all docs should be permitted to give to really understand those connections. That means you will likely have to wait quite some time for your appt for that thorough exam.

Around 6 weeks into my pregnancy I experienced spotting but since I was not yet 8 weeks hadn’t been to my OB and when I called them they just told me to monitor it but I was too worried. I was referred to Dr. Lassaletta by my natural family planning instructor and she helped me right away. I got in to see her same day and she not only checked me but got me an ultrasound for peace of mind and checked my progesterone levels, which were low so she prescribed it to me. I continued to consult with her throughout my pregnancy as she monitored my progesterone levels and was available for calls/texts 24/7 for any questions/concerns that I had. She made my pregnancy so much less worrisome and I’m so grateful I found her at the beginning of my first pregnancy.

We saw Dr. Lassaletta after struggling with infertility for 2 years. We also experienced 2 miscarriages during that time. We were broken, hopeless and exhausted by the time we got to her. We had already seen the reproductive endocrinologist (RE) and had been diagnosed with infertility of unknown etiology . The RE was really pushing us towards IVF. We felt very uncomfortable with the small work up that the RE performed and it seemed like he had no interest in figuring out the underlying cause, just wanted to make money on IVF.We saw Dr. Lassaletta for naprotechnology for the first time in June and were pregnant by August. She did a thorough work up between June and July, diagnosed our issue, and made a treatment plan. We got pregnant on the first try using the treatment that Dr. Lassaletta prescribed for us (low dose clomid and serial post ovulation HCG injections). Pretty incredible after 2 years of infertility. She has continued to follow us (progesterone levels every 2 weeks) throughout our pregnancy to ensure a viable and healthy pregnancy. After feeling so alone for so long, it has been such a blessing to have found a provider who was actually able to help us. I am now 26 weeks and due in early May.In the interest of giving a full disclosure- Dr. Lassaletta does tend to run behind, somewhere in between 30 and 60 minutes. I always bring my laptop to my appointments (can connect to the summa guest wifi in her office building) and I bring my to do list. I often get quite a bit of work done while I am waiting. I value the time that Dr. Lassaletta spends with me- she is always available to answer all questions and never makes me feel rushed. I feel that you cant have your cake and eat it too. You cant have a provider that listens, really tries to get to the bottom of the issue, answers all your questions AND runs exactly on time.
