Danielle & Eddie's Story:
My husband and I started trying to conceive in 2017. We were young and thought that it would happen right away. Boy, were we wrong! After almost a year of trying, I decided to see a local specialist. As a result of this, I found out I had endometriosis and blockages in both tubes.
The specialist told us that IVF was our only option and he'd charge us $30,000. We were devastated. Not only did we learn that I couldn't conceive on my own, but we also learned that it would cost an astronomical amount to achieve our dream of being parents.
I decided not to take that as the final answer. After doing research, I came across CNY. Not only did CNY offer affordable treatments, but they have a team that actually cares.
My husband and I opted to do IVF at the Albany office. The first three transfers were not successful. We were saddened, but the team at CNY did not let us give up. They recommended that we try a different protocol. Just when we were ready to throw in the towel after our fourth transfer, we found out we were expecting!! Our baby girl Aleah made her entrance July 2024!
