I am a single woman who decided to have a baby on her own, which makes the process even more stressful.

I had been with another clinic in town undergoing fertility treatments for many months and was never satisfied with the care I was receiving. I didn’t feel connected to my doctor or the nurses and kept thinking that for such an emotional, expensive and arduous journey, I should feel less like a number and more like someone really cared if I became pregnant or not.

I will eternally be grateful for all that Dr. James did to help me achieve my dream of having my precious baby.

I found a comment online about Dr. James and how caring she was and made a consult appointment. From the first meeting, I (finally) felt like I had a true partner in my quest to become pregnant! Dr. James really cared about helping me to become pregnant and I know she put a lot of thought and energy into my procedures. My attempts were not immediately successful and I felt like Dr. James shared in my frustration and sadness, and this gave me comfort. I felt she was really invested in making it happen for me.

When I became pregnant she shared in my joy and I could tell she was truly happy for me! I thought to myself many times how much easier the process was because she seemed to really understand my stress and frustration. It was incredibly different from my first clinic, where I felt like they barely remembered my name after months and months of procedures. I vividly remember the day in my pregnancy that Dr. James told me that it was time release me to the care of an OB GYN.  I had ‘graduated!’ It was an emotional moment for me and a bit scary. I cried because I didn’t want to leave the comfort of her care.
