    My experience with Dr.H was wonderful. I recommend the Fertility Institute of San Diego. The team was very kind to me. Thank you for always keeping me confident. If I could give them more stars, I would do so without hesitation. I rate this place 10000/10. Thank you very much and sincerely! :)

    When my wife and I were researching fertility clinics in San Diego, we did not know where to begin. The Fertility Institute of San Diego appeared in a Google search, and the patient reviews caught our attention. After our first consultation, we knew we had made the right choice. Our experience at the Fertility Institute of San Diego has been exceptional. From the moment we entered, we felt supported, informed, and cared for. The entire team, from the front desk staff to the nurses and doctors, was compassionate, professional, and always willing to answer questions. Dr. Hosseinzadeh took the time to explain every step of the process thoroughly, ensuring my wife and I felt confident and empowered throughout our fertility journey. The clinic’s welcoming design and personalized service made us feel like more than patients; we felt valued as people. The team is highly goal-oriented and provided comfort during the more difficult moments. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, my wife and I are moving confidently toward becoming mothers. We could not have done this without them. We wholeheartedly recommend the Fertility Institute of San Diego to anyone seeking fertility care. They truly go above and beyond to make dreams come true.

    I cannot express how grateful I am for the exceptional care I received at the Fertility Institute of San Diego (FISD). After four rounds of timed intercourse (TI) with their support, I was deeply impressed by the professionalism and compassion of the entire staff. When those attempts were unsuccessful, we decided to proceed with IVF. I can confidently say that the transition was seamless because of the incredible team here. Communication was always prompt and clear, making a potentially overwhelming process much more manageable. The laboratory procedures were surprisingly painless, and I always felt respected and cared for during every visit. Carly in patient relations is a true gem. Her friendly manner and helpful attitude made a significant difference in my experience. Both registered nurses on my team were wonderful, with the best bedside manner, and were truly a blessing during this process. Most importantly, I want to highlight Dr. H, who is not only kind but refreshingly straightforward. She took the time to explain every step of the treatment plan, ensuring my husband and I felt informed and empowered in our decisions. She has a calming presence, communicates well by breaking down the science so it is easier to understand, and always radiates positive energy. She completed all my scans and appointments, which impressed me because I never had to wait for an appointment or had difficulty scheduling one. Overall, my experience at the Fertility Institute of San Diego has been wonderful. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone on a fertility journey. You will be in excellent hands! I am fully confident that our journey to grow our family with FISD will succeed.

    My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at FISD. Dr. Hosseinzadeh and the entire staff are very caring and professional. Dr. Hosseinzadeh exceeded our expectations and showed tremendous compassion. Words cannot express our gratitude for the care FISD provided. If you are considering a clinic for your IVF journey, I strongly recommend and encourage you to try this clinic.

    My partner and I did extensive research before choosing a clinic for our IVF journey. After finding Fertility Institute of San Diego and having our first consultation with Dr. Hosseinzadeh, we immediately knew this was where we wanted to go. Dr. H and her entire staff were outstanding and made us feel supported and cared for at every step, especially when our first cycle did not go as planned. I especially appreciated that Dr. H participated in every appointment except laboratory blood draws. One major reason we did not choose other clinics was that the same provider would not necessarily perform each ultrasound. We felt more comfortable having one doctor and continuity of care. At every appointment, we could continue where we had left off. I cannot say enough good things about my experience at FISD. Dr. H is one of the most respected and knowledgeable doctors I have had the privilege of speaking with. This was a very emotional and frightening time for us, but Dr. H took the time to understand me as an individual and my partner and me as a couple. We will always be grateful to everyone at Fertility Institute of San Diego!

    I am so glad I found Dr. Hasseinzadah and her team—Keila, Carly, and Marina. From day one, they have been kind, caring, and helpful. Marina always puts a big smile on my face; she is so thoughtful. Her team cared for me attentively throughout the process. When I say their customer service goes above and beyond, I mean 100 times beyond. Emails were answered promptly, and I never felt foolish for asking questions. Keila also checked on me regularly to make sure I was well and understood the process. Dr. Hosseinzadah is amazing. She is passionate, experienced, and knowledgeable, yet explains everything in a way I truly understand. From the why, to the what, to the how, she explains the whole process meaningfully. You can tell she loves her work, and I know she always has my best interests in mind. I think everyone should go through this process, regardless of age. I am glad I chose them because they made me feel welcome, comfortable, and informed from day one. I never felt it was too early or too late to get checked. It may not be fair, but as women, our time is always precious!

    Updated my review after receiving an itemized receipt. Dr. H is kind and compassionate. I chose this clinic largely because of her; she was candid and helpful and personally performed many of my ultrasounds. I felt genuine care from her throughout my cycle. That said, I wish I had known that Carrot Fertility does not work with this clinic at all. FISD is ineligible because it does not report outcomes to the CDC or SART. You will not be reimbursed. If your employer offers thousands of dollars in fertility reimbursement, you likely will not be allowed to use this clinic. Confirm first. I also had to request an itemized receipt for insurance. They told me I could update the receipt myself and submit it, but I could not. After considerable effort, I finally received an itemized receipt. I hope part of the expense can be reimbursed. Second, an avoidable prescription delay cost me $1,000 out of pocket. My medication plan had been set a month earlier, but the prescription was not submitted until two days before I needed it. Because of the delay, I had to pay $1,000 out of pocket for Gonal-F, which insurance would have covered fully if it had been handled earlier. Several pharmacies told me they could have prepared it within two days. I do not recommend this clinic if finances are tight. If money is not a concern, I would give it five stars.

    Dr. Hosseinzadeh and her team have been wonderful from the start. They made the entire IVF process more manageable and less stressful. They always answered our questions and calls, even outside office hours. We knew from the beginning that the process would be emotionally and physically difficult, but the results so far have exceeded our expectations. I am very grateful for all the testing and careful planning they did to give us the best possible outcome. Their professionalism, dedication, empathy, and care have made a tremendous difference. FISD is the best!

    Working with Dr. Minos Hosseinzadeh and her team was wonderful! From the start, I felt well cared for thanks to the team's excellent coordination and professionalism. Keyla and Marianne provided invaluable support throughout the egg donation process. Their empathy, kindness, and dedication made me feel like family at every appointment. Despite the language barrier, I never felt alone or confused. The team made sure I understood every step and gave me the confidence and support I needed. They cared for me throughout, and their dedication and professionalism are unmatched. Dr. Minos is an outstanding professional, and her team reflects her commitment to excellence. It was an honor to work with them, and I am grateful that they made the experience so positive. If you are considering egg donation, do not hesitate to choose Dr. Minos and her team. They are the best!

    We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Hosseinzadeh and her team. From day one, we felt supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. Dr. H is extremely knowledgeable and thoughtful. She ensured that our treatment plan was individualized rather than one-size-fits-all. They were very cautious and emphasized the importance of rest, which made a tremendous difference for me and my treatment outcome. Keila was also wonderful. She answered every question—and there were many—patiently and clearly. The entire team, from the front desk to the nurses, was very kind, responsive, and genuinely supportive. Fertility treatment is not easy, but having a team like this makes all the difference. We feel fortunate to have had the help of such an excellent, caring doctor. And I am delighted to say that I became pregnant after just one FET with Dr. H! Before this, I had undergone two and a half years of fertility treatment, including IVF in New York and multiple IUIs at another clinic. I will be back soon for baby number three! Hugs and kisses.

    Going through IVF and a frozen embryo transfer was incredibly difficult, and doing it alone once seemed like an impossible dream. My journey began with discouraging health news, which became a major challenge along the way. Despite every difficulty, I remained determined to do everything possible to have a family of my own. The most meaningful part of this experience was that I never felt alone. Everyone at FISD made me feel understood, heard, and supported through every high and low. Dr. H and her team continually reminded me how far I had come and how much hope remained ahead. They celebrated every milestone with me—from a successful IVF procedure to the frozen embryo transfer and finally the exciting moment when I completed monitoring. I once believed facing this alone would be the hardest challenge of my life, but FISD made me feel they were always beside me. Every team member played a part in helping me achieve this dream, and I will always be grateful. Thanks to your attentive care, support, and guidance, I have successfully reached 13 weeks of pregnancy. My heartfelt thanks—you turned what once seemed impossible into a beautiful reality. I could not imagine a better place to help you build your family—one step at a time.

    Dr. H and her team far exceeded my expectations for a fertility clinic. I was extremely anxious when I began IVF, but their expertise and consistent communication reassured me at every step. Thanks to them, our first transfer was successful, and I am now 12 weeks pregnant!!

    Husband of patient and candidate for fatherhood, but our experience with FISD was incredible. The process of IVF is inherently imperfect and incredibly difficult for my wife mentally, emotionally and physically. We had a lot of ups, a lot of downs, good days and bad, but everyone that we met with and interacted with, particularly Dr. H, were calming, assuring and steadying forces from the time we first met with them until the time we recently graduated. The FISD staff made my wife feel comfortable, especially on the tough days. They were available to answer all of our questions, even the dumb ones, and provided us all of the information and the roadmap we needed each step of the way. They didn't set our expectations too high but always remained very positive and reassuring. After 2 retrievals and 2 transfers, we are now at 11-12 weeks and expecting a baby girl in the summer of 2026. Would absolutely recommend anyone Dr. H's way, we had a wonderful experience through our time with her and her team.

    Wonderful! Every staff member cares about me and takes excellent care of me as a patient. I look forward to starting treatment and sincerely hope to fulfill one of my wishes: becoming a mother again. Everyone has been very kind so far, especially Dr. H. Excellent! My deepest respect to all of you.

    I highly recommend FISD to anyone needing fertility support. IVF was extremely stressful for me, but FISD made this difficult journey as positive and manageable as possible. Working with Dr. H and the entire FISD team was meaningful from the start. The care always felt deeply personalized, and I never felt like a number on an assembly line, as friends have unfortunately described at other San Diego fertility clinics. Every question was answered quickly, communication was clear, and each IVF step was explained thoroughly to my husband and me, so we always knew what to expect. Dr. H and the team perfectly balanced optimism and encouragement with honesty and transparency throughout. This built tremendous trust and made a challenging experience much easier. What truly distinguishes FISD is its people. Everyone is genuinely friendly, helpful, and caring, and they made even the most frightening moments feel less intimidating. I never expected to say this, but I will truly miss seeing the team every week. I am now 12 weeks pregnant and deeply grateful to FISD for helping us reach this point. I am so glad we chose this clinic for such an important journey. 💗

    I had internal bleeding for four hours and was called dramatic when I left the hospital... I was then rushed to the hospital for lifesaving surgery, and someone else carried my child as a surrogate... This happened 14 years ago, and only after years of therapy can I talk about it.

    I started my journey with Dr. H. last year about this time. Now we are prepping for the first transfer. We are freezing 6 PGT tested embryos. Dr. H has always been very nice and kind and very patient with all of our questions. After our poor egg quality and two non-euploid embryos, she sat with us and suggested a few things to change in lifestyle and supplements. Those were the game changers. The stuff in FISD are always very nice and calm, I love how Keila adds a big smile everytime we ask her about something. She is also very prompt in placing orders and staff. Karly was always nice and patient in explaining the cost etc. IVF is an expensive process both monetarily and physically. FISD has been very supportive at all the time. I always get encouraging words from Dr. H after every ultrasound. She would explain everything with scientific explanations. It is being a great experience with them. I recommended my friends this clinic already. I highly recommend this to all my review readers.

    Words and space cannot express my gratitude to this exceptional team. After a difficult journey at another fertility clinic, finding FISD was a breath of fresh air. From the beginning, we felt their warmth, care, and professionalism, and that feeling only grew throughout treatment. Dr. H and her team far exceeded our expectations for infertility care. They eased many of my fears and anxieties and made every visit feel safe and reassuring. Dr. H never pressured us into a specific treatment. She took time to understand us and worked with us to develop a plan. That respect and collaboration meant so much. The entire team is compassionate, attentive, and communicative. They combine professionalism with genuine care, making you feel valued and confident in treatment. They are committed to giving every patient the best possible experience and care, even when the path is not straightforward. Infertility can feel incredibly difficult and isolating, so the people supporting you matter. This remarkable team of women made us feel empowered, resilient, and deeply supported throughout. They helped us achieve our dream, and I will always be grateful. They are angels. I never expected to feel so sad about “graduating” from a fertility clinic, but leaving this team was bittersweet. If you are considering FISD, do not hesitate. They are truly special.

    I highly recommend FISD! Dr. H and her team are professional, compassionate, and efficient. Three years ago, I came to FISD for help after a heartbreaking failed IVF cycle. FISD gave me renewed hope. After a comprehensive evaluation, they recommended trying intrauterine insemination (IUI) and honestly explained that, given my age, IUI had a lower success rate than IVF. I followed their guidance carefully, and to our surprise, we succeeded on the first try! I am now 9 weeks pregnant. I sincerely thank Dr. H and Keila for their support and care throughout the process! Words cannot express my gratitude! The financial team was also wonderful: Carly handled all communication with my insurance company and calculated my out-of-pocket costs fairly. Reasonable prices and excellent results!
