Second Chances

I visited CNY Fertility Center last year in the hopes of becoming pregnant after having a tubal ligation. The decision to have a tubal came after a very unhealthy first marriage, and the subsequent feeling that I would not have more children. But…after I recovered from the emotional aspects of such a relationship, I realized that I wanted more children. I knew it was important to my current partner, and important for me, to be able to have the pregnancy experience that involved love & partnership. However, I still had the limitations of the very physical decision I had made.

We completed one cycle in December 2008 with a few bumps in the road. It did not seem as though my eggs would mature in time for the holiday, but thankfully they did. Then, we got into a car accident on the way to our implantation. Two embryos were implanted, and both took. But, in our 13th week, we lost one of the babies. However, it was that December 24th, 2008 that our now son, Brody Steven was successfully implanted, and it was on August 30, 2009 that he was born.

While I thought there was only one more pregnancy in our future, I am hopeful that the CNY team will be able to make our dream come true one more time!

I am so thankful to be able to have the opportunity to go on this journey with a new child, my partner, and my two older children. I cannot extend enough thanks to the staff, or Dr. Grossman, who met me, and helped me on that snowy, scary Christmas Eve day. Thank you & see you again, soon!

Joanne & Patrick’s Story

After four failed IUI procedures with my regular OB/GYN, I was sent to Dr. Grossman and the staff at CNY Fertility in Latham, NY. After having myself and my husband tested for any abnormalities, as well as a
laporoscopy, we went ahead with fertiity treatments. After weeks of shots, another IUI was performed. A few weeks later, I was given the wonderful news that I was pregnant. I never thought that I was going to get pregnant, and after each failed attempt, I started feeling worse and worse, along with the fact that everyone around me was having babies and becoming pregnant successfully. Dr. Grossman and the staff at CNY Fertility in Latham are wonderful people and truly care about each and every patient, and they
remember every face that walks through their doors. I am truly thankful to all of them for helping me achieve my dream of having a baby. Cameron was born in April 2008 and I am overjoyed and blessed to have him as my son. Nothing else in the world means more to me than him.

Thank you, Dr. Grossman and the entire staff at CNY Fertility!!

Ken & Leslie’s Story

After a long and stressful time trying to get pregnant, Noah Kenneth was born on May 15, 2008.  My husband and I had spent many years trying to start our family and visiting many specialists.  It wasn’t until we met with Dr. Grossman last year that we honestly felt that we were in the right hands, and now we have our miracle to prove it.    After many consultations and trips between Dr. Kiltz and Dr. Grossman, we heard our great news.  We were finally pregnant!!!  The staff was phenomenal at both clinics.  We were treated with priority and care at every visit.  Everyone
became like family to us.   We had truly felt defeated until CNY Fertility came into our lives.  Your care and compassion will never be forgotten.

Thank you and God bless,
Leslie and Ken
