Testimonials
After going through IVF at another clinic that felt a little cold and closed off, meeting Dr. Ahlering and your staff has been truly magical. I didn’t realize that fertility clinics could be so warm and welcoming or else we would have made the drive to you all years ago.
I really love how he takes the time to answer your questions thoroughly and how he explains how things are looking and next steps. It gives me total confidence in his ability to get me to my end goal which is a baby. I appreciate his bed side manner and I really like his personality. I'd refer him any day to anyone. Whether my journey ends in a completed pregnancy or not.
