Hey purple
our existing clinic charges one fee that inc. the docs fee regardless of who you see. We shopped around (can't afford not to eh?) and QFG are coming in at $1000 cheaper than our current clinic and that is before they waived the registration fee, transportation of frozen embryos AND initial consultation!!! It really does pay to call a few doc's receptionists and find out their fees for various procedures. There was one who said it was $130 for me to see doc at initial consultation....and then another $130 for my husband to join me in her office and breathe her O2 (well she didn't put it like that but YKWIM!)....so I struck her off the list out of principal, although as my hubby pointed out $130 for initial consult. was cheaper than a lot of others.....BUT I argued she was taking advantage of a situation when moral support is the key.

I'm going off on one now, so I'll stop! Hope this helps.
