Hi Cassie,
Was just reading this thread & thought I would give some feedback regarding SIVF. My DH & I have been doing IVF for 2yrs, we were firstly with Westmead Fertility Centre, but with all the failed cycles & the "waiting around" and "feeling like a number" with them, we got fed up & switched to SIVF, yes VERY expensive, almost triple the price of WFC, but in saying that, we are so happy with them. We actually had our first BFP with them, but unfortunatley, I m/c this month. We actually go to the clinic at Baulkam Hills (Norwest) and cannot fault them, my Doc (Dr.Jackie Greig, Castle Hill) & my nurse gave me their mbl numbers if I had any concerns, they are very caring, personable & are there to help.
I guess what I am saying is that IVF is an extremely personal, hard journey for both you and your partner/husband & sometimes we need that support and some "hand holding" from our clinics, so go with who ever you feel comfortable with. If you are not happy, than dont' stay, move onto the next clinic, my biggest regret is not leaving WFC earlier to go to SIVF, dont feel "locked in" to the one clinic.
Good luck with it all on this journey, I hope you find the right clinic
