It is nearly impossible to get anyone here to call you back—whether to schedule an appointment or receive an update. It is astonishing that they are still in business with such poor customer service. My doctor was wonderful, but I could never reach her or her team to schedule an appointment, and most of my friends had the same experience. Hard pass.

I do not know where to begin because I do not know how to keep this brief.
It is now April 2026. My insurer had provided prior authorization as of April 4. I called the insurer because one of my billing codes was denied, then called the clinic. They transferred me to the finance department, where I left a message. Finance returned my call on April 8, said she had received my message, and asked how she could help. I explained that my procedure had prior authorization but I had not heard back, and that some charges had been denied based on the clinical information submitted by the doctor. What should happen next? She asked where I could see the prior authorization and how I knew it had been approved. They treat patients as though we are stupid.
I explained that I had been monitoring the matter so I could prepare and would not have to handle everything at the last minute. She said she would email me to register for the patient portal and that I would receive all the information there. A week passed with no email. I left two more messages that same week, and no one contacted me. They did not reach out until April 24, two weeks later.
I later learned she was out of the office and someone else was covering. The substitute repeated the same promise to email me to set up an account, but nothing happened. Two days later I called and left another message. She finally returned my call and said I had to prepay more than $2,000 before they would contact me to schedule an appointment. Apparently, this was the charge for the code my insurer denied. I was furious that no one had contacted me. Now I must rush to pay because my prior authorization expires June 30 and my insurance renews July 1. If everything is not completed before July 1, my out-of-pocket cost will be very high because my deductible exceeds $1,000. The entire situation is emotionally exhausting.
So this is no longer about points; it is about money. I do not think they care how painful this process is for some of us. It is especially disheartening because everyone from the representatives to the finance staff is a woman; you would think they would care. It is shameful.

Today was my first procedure, performed by Grace. She was wonderful and very kind. She made the entire process comfortable, eased my nerves, and explained everything clearly. Thank you so much, Grace.

My partner and I scheduled consultations and diagnostic tests because we are planning for the future. The clinical team was excellent—the doctors and nurses were wonderful—but the administrative staff were terrible. The “authorization” specialist incorrectly estimated the patient’s out-of-pocket cost and stubbornly insisted the patient had to pay 100%, even with health insurance. A reminder: contracted providers cannot balance bill patients. Do not let a medical office dismiss your concerns. Research your coverage carefully because insurance benefits can be complex.
I have worked in health insurance, and I find it extremely irresponsible to provide incorrect information in such a stressful and time-sensitive situation. The scheduling staff were also unresponsive, and communicating with the clinic was a nightmare.
They even billed my insurance for four appointments I had canceled! I will not return and will seek another provider in the Boston area.
2026年2月24日
The staff were rude, the process was opaque, appointments were difficult to schedule, and I was ultimately charged for an appointment I did not attend. They now refuse to delete my personal information even when asked. It is unbelievable that a clinic providing such sensitive services could be this poor. Stay away! I wish I had read the Reddit reviews first—many people report the same experience.

Most of my appointments were at the South Portland, Maine office. It is a small, beautiful clinic with wonderful staff. I visited the Waltham, Massachusetts office once, and my husband went twice; our experience there was equally positive. It is much larger, but the staff are also excellent. Special thanks to Christian, who guided me through every step by email and patiently answered all my unusual and endless questions! IVF options are limited in southern Maine, especially donor egg IVF, but there is no need to look further—Boston IVF can help. I could not believe how quickly everything moved. We started paperwork in October, paid in January, and the transfer was on March 1! (Then I had the baby in November!) *Note: We were fortunate that it worked on the first attempt.

I regret receiving services at Boston IVF. I went there to accompany my partner for possible fertility preservation treatment before chemotherapy and to have a semen analysis to see whether I could participate if we decided to freeze embryos.
My partner was told the cost of her treatment in advance, which would be covered by insurance, and she explicitly agreed to and paid those costs beforehand. After my insurance policy was provided and reviewed several times, they also repeatedly assured me that my services would be covered by my insurance.
Then the bill arrived—what a surprise! The lesson is not to take Boston IVF at its word; always confirm with your insurance company. Boston IVF staff seem focused on making you comfortable so they can see as many patients as possible and maximize profits. Different patients also receive inconsistent cost information.
That said, some staff members were kind and helpful and did their best to assist those of us needing oncofertility care. An employee named Heidi did everything she could to reduce our medication costs. She was an angel and truly did an outstanding job. I am giving two stars instead of one entirely because of her excellent work.

I cannot recommend Boston IVF enough. The doctors, nurses, technicians, surgeons, front desk, financial team, wellness team, etc. Literally everyone has been so supportive, knowledgable, and efficient. They are an amazingly well-oiled machine, and I'm grateful for being able to work with such a compassionate and professional organization.
Update: we welcomed our son in December! This could not have been possible without the teamwork of our doctor, Dr. Resetkova, the nurses and other amazing staff. We are incredibly grateful!

Your first treatment may go well, but afterward your treatment schedule may be mishandled, delaying diagnosis, and you may be unable to reach scheduling, billing, your doctor, or a nurse.
They do not explain your cycle in advance, and every cycle is different. You may need a month of preparation or may start injections immediately. You will not know until the day treatment starts, so everything is uncertain.
They take on too many patients to care properly for any of them.
You are just a number. The more treatment cycles you undergo, the more money they make from you. Their goal is not to help you become pregnant but to drain your finances. Go to Brigham and Women's Hospital instead. Their outcomes are better, and the entire team is more dedicated.

Do not choose this company!!
My experience with Boston IVF was a nightmare, mainly because of their unethical and aggressive billing department. After treatment ended, I began receiving bills that made no sense, including storage fees for embryos I had been told would be destroyed and amounts that did not correspond to any services I authorized or received. When I questioned the charges and requested an itemized explanation, their communication was consistently evasive, delayed, or nonexistent.
Although I made partial payments, I later found that some were not properly credited to my account, causing the balance to keep increasing. Then came the threats: repeated calls and letters demanding payment of the “debt,” even though I was still disputing it and many charges appeared incorrect or unauthorized. This was outright bullying. How many times do I have to call to cancel services, and how many letters and emails must I send to escape this situation?
IVF is already stressful enough without a clinic adding financial harassment. Boston IVF's billing practices seem designed to overcharge and intimidate patients into paying disputed amounts quickly. I strongly advise anyone considering this clinic to look elsewhere as there are better options that treat patients with respect and transparency. Save yourself the headache and potential credit damage

I would choose Boston IVF again without hesitation. Thanks to Boston IVF and its outstanding doctors, nurses, and staff, I have two healthy, happy babies. Throughout our fertility journey, everyone was knowledgeable, efficient, dedicated, dependable, candid, honest, and transparent.
When you feel hopeless, they show you a way forward; when you feel time is running out, they remind you that there is still time. They gave us not only exceptional medical care but also hope, compassion, and unwavering support during one of the most difficult periods of our lives. We will always be grateful for Boston IVF’s role in helping us build our family.

Boston IVF has helped me welcome two beautiful healthy girls and I couldn't be prouder to finally be called "mom". My first blessing was in January 2023 and my second blessing was in November 2024. Thank you to Dr. Pang, Boston IVF in Waltham and Quincy for all their help in making my dreams come true. For many years I dreamt and sometimes cried because I wasn't a mother while everyone around me was starting their family. I'm happy to share that my world is now complete with my two daughters and I couldn't be happier. I recommend Boston IVF to anyone looking to start a family with assistance of great doctors, nurses, and colleagues.

Boston IVF disappointed me, as did Dr. Alan Penzias. A cruel nurse would not explain why I was left freezing for three hours and mocked me when I asked. Dr. Penzias was neither kind nor understanding and would not listen to me. There are many excellent doctors elsewhere; do not choose this practice.

Do not use their services under any circumstances. These people define incompetence. Whether it is administrative staff failing to follow up, clinical staff not following proper imaging procedures, or billing repeatedly pursuing money you do not owe, you will face constant problems. Do not hesitate—stay far away from this practice!

Although this company is competent procedurally, its communication and callback service are terrible. For three weeks I have tried to transfer my frozen eggs to a clinic less than an hour away, but no one has returned my calls. My receiving clinic, CCRM, responded within an hour. I left dozens of voicemails and emails for Boston IVF with no response. I am now begging them to reply. This is extremely frustrating, especially given the procedure costs, monthly storage fees, and emotional burden of IVF.

Writing this review is very important to me. This journey has been difficult for my husband and me. We began fertility treatment elsewhere but ultimately changed clinics for unfortunate reasons. I do not want to spread negativity about another practice—no system is perfect, and something as heartbreaking as infertility can make you want to blame people for things entirely outside their control.
Nevertheless, we made the change, and the entire Boston IVF process was smooth, supportive, encouraging, and, most importantly, pragmatic. A friend recommended Boston IVF, particularly Dr. Alper, and I am deeply grateful. The nurses have always been professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Every question was answered patiently and thoroughly.
Dr. Alper has a remarkable way of breaking down data and probabilities. His calm, practical approach makes a complex, emotional process manageable. I completely trust his judgment and confidently follow his guidance.
Without the right care, infertility can easily become a painful experience. At Boston IVF, I felt genuinely cared for. Tomorrow I will have a pregnancy test. Whatever the result, I feel at peace knowing we received the best care and that our team will start again with us, determined to find the right path forward. I will always be grateful to Dr. Alper and his Boston IVF team.

Despite my assigned doctor's promise to provide the most attentive care because I was caring for a hospitalized child with complex needs after discharge, the entire experience showed me that Boston IVF cares only about numbers, not people. They offered no secure way to share sensitive information, only ordinary email or an in-person visit. For my first egg retrieval, they said everything was extremely urgent, yet left me waiting in the reception area for an hour past the procedure time without explaining what was happening or that the procedure was not actually so urgent. When I called to arrange an urgent appointment, the scheduler was rude. The finance staff delayed submitting my prior authorization claim. Although I explicitly warned them that my insurer had identified an unresolved coverage issue, they did not address it in advance. When the request was denied for that reason, they said they had not noticed, even though I had clearly flagged it. I had to argue for them to file a provider appeal, which would take days, instead of making me file a less persuasive appeal myself that would take a month. I had to take additional medication to avoid losing the entire cycle because their administrators refused to pay attention, listen, or care.

Hello! I am leaving a one-star review because this team seems to respond to Google reviews faster than to actual patient requests. I will not name individuals because that would be unprofessional; I only need to describe the issue we encountered. Like many others, it was communication. We worked with them for some time, and everyone seemed kind, as I believe most are. Later, my wife's employer provided excellent insurance, which we used to freeze some embryos. Because we no longer lived in the Boston area, I needed to ship sperm there. We received detailed information about the freezing process and results, which was reassuring. We were not told there was excess sperm or that it would be frozen. The paperwork only stated that the sperm would be used and frozen until that deadline, nothing more. I then received a claim from a billing agency for $1700 in sperm ‘storage fees,’ with storage backdated for a year. I have since managed to have the sperm discarded, but no one can explain why it was frozen. We have received every explanation imaginable, from ‘there was a clerical error at the agency’ to ‘what else did you think would happen?’ Every time we call, we are told to email or call people who do not exist, with emails bouncing back, or no one returns our call. When we contact them again, they tell us there is no record of the prior contact. Meanwhile, I receive collection notices every week. I do not know why this is happening. I am usually optimistic, and my wife is a doctor who generally sees the best in things, but this has caused me great stress and honestly feels intentional, even though it seems they may simply have no resources or incentive to address this part of the organization. After reading other reviews, this appears to be a pattern, so I felt it was worth making our situation public. I must also say that being blamed by some staff made me feel taken advantage of. Using benefits to cover the expense may have made it look as though we were profiting, perhaps why they assumed we would not mind paying random bills, but even if we did object, their response was petty at best. I am glad so many people have had positive experiences. As a father, I know the miracles you create are wonderful, but we are all in a vulnerable position, so communication and, frankly, accountability should be better. I apologize for the length; I only hope this moves things forward. For anyone reading and considering where to go, if you choose this clinic, do not move too far away and get to know someone in the finance department so this is less likely to happen. I would not assume it was intentional, although it may feel that way now.

I cannot adequately describe my and my husband’s experience at Boston IVF. Infertility is frightening, uncertain, and isolating. From our first call, when we did not know what to ask or how to begin, through finally achieving pregnancy, a highly qualified medical team fully supported us. Every doctor was kind, understanding, and responsive to our individual needs. I never felt like a number or a revenue-generating appointment. Anyone facing infertility can choose Boston IVF with confidence.

Two IVF cycles. The one-star rating is not because I did not become pregnant. At 9 weeks, the fertility doctor said the fetus was slightly smaller than “normal,” in his opinion, and immediately recommended a D&C without progesterone treatment, telling me to return two days later. After chromosome testing, the nurse relayed these exact words: “The fetus was normal, a healthy baby boy!”

I am posting for a friend who does not want to share her fertility journey publicly.\n\nShe tried several times to schedule an initial consultation before reaching an extremely cold receptionist. Newly exploring her options, she wanted to know whether pregnancy was still possible. The receptionist, not a clinician familiar with her health, first said she was too old to freeze eggs because she had just turned 41 and the cutoff was 40. A cutoff may be understandable, but this was inappropriate when she wanted to discuss all options with a professional. The receptionist then pressed for her partner’s information, although she wanted an assessment of her own fertility and he did not need to be involved. She then asked whether my friend planned to use donor sperm. My friend repeatedly said she did not know, but the receptionist insisted she had to register a partner. It is outrageous that she could not schedule without choosing a donor or registered partner. My friend was crying as the questioning continued, so she hung up. Such conduct is absurd in an emotionally difficult field. Call MGH instead; they are much kinder and more professional.

I have nothing good to say about BIVF. They mishandled the medications and insurance authorization. Their mistakes have already delayed my attempts to conceive by two months, and worse, I cannot reach my care team at all. I am just a number—and an annoying one. Stay away!

After nearly three unsatisfactory years with Boston IVF, we switched to CCRM, and the difference was night and day.
The doctors at CCRM made us feel that they genuinely cared about our outcome, while at Boston IVF we felt like just a number. The only time I met a Boston IVF doctor in person was during one egg retrieval, across 5 cycles in total. At CCRM, we could meet with our doctor and address concerns from the start. At Boston IVF, we were unsure whether they could find an effective treatment plan, as we retrieved fewer eggs each time. At CCRM, our first attempt produced 3 times as many eggs.
CCRM's financial coordinator helped us understand our insurance limitations and, unlike Boston IVF, worked with us to keep costs manageable. Boston IVF told us, “Your only option is to pay more than $16,000.” Although both practices were in network with our insurer, we paid less than $5,000 at CCRM. Boston IVF's financial coordinator always made us feel as if we were bothering her or had done something wrong. CCRM's financial coordinator was a pleasure to work with.
At Boston IVF, the only way to contact anyone was to call, leave a message, and hope for a return call. It was infuriating. At CCRM, you can send a message through the app and consistently receive a reply within 24-48 hours.
During one Boston IVF cycle, they did not prescribe the correct quantity, so we had to pay out of pocket midway through the cycle because we could not obtain a second prior authorization in time for the additional medication. At CCRM, we had more than enough medication.
Again and again, we realized that Boston IVF had been the worst choice for us. We now regret not switching sooner because we are older and our options are very limited.
I hope our experience was unusual, but from our perspective, Boston IVF operates like a money-making factory.

I have been with Boston IVF for several years under Dr. Thornton's care. She seemed fine at first, although I never cared for her administrative staff. Over time, we began experiencing many communication problems. They either failed to give us relevant information or entered incorrect instructions in our care plan.
The situation became serious when we received countless incorrect notifications within one week and ultimately learned that we had not been given essential information required for fertility treatment. This could delay our care by several months or longer.
I am not saying I would not recommend Boston IVF, but I would never recommend Dr. Thornton, even to my worst enemy.

Dr. Sandy Li did not show up for our appointment and gave no notice. When the front desk contacted the doctor, they confirmed that they had simply forgotten the appointment. We waited three months for this visit, and their attitude was incredibly rude and unprofessional. Interestingly, their financial team continues to contact us about insurance. Boston IVF cares only about money, not patients who are dealing with such a sensitive issue.

Overall, the experience was good, but the service did not address the root cause of some infertility issues. I am grateful to the nurse with the arm tattoo. During treatment, she told me to manage my stress because it was clear that I was very stressed, which can easily affect fertility. That was very important to me. I immediately stopped stressing about the outcome and learned a few weeks later that I was pregnant. It seems obvious, but I am not sure why this was not discussed from the beginning, especially when fertility problems are unexplained.

I had a terrible experience with Boston IVF in 2022. I felt like a number. I saw the doctor once and never again. After flying from Washington to Boston specifically for an appointment, I missed the window to begin monitoring because someone in billing failed to process a payment I had made on time. I eventually had an IUI, but no one ever called to ask about the outcome or whether I had a baby. Honestly, it was unbelievable.
I am leaving this review now because I am trying a new clinic, but there seems to be no way to obtain medical records from Boston IVF. There is an unmonitored medical-records phone line and a circular process for reaching anyone. I requested records a month ago, my doctor requested them again, and we call daily, yet I cannot even confirm that they received the authorization I sent 5 weeks ago. It is truly unbelievable. I asked whether there was an intermediate step before filing a formal complaint, after staff repeatedly redirected me to the unmonitored records line, and was essentially told there was not.
I would welcome follow-up, but I also want others to know that if you think you may need your records, print them while you are still a patient and take them with you. Being treated like a number rather than a person does not stop after you leave their care. They apparently invest little in the records department, or in anything that does not make them much money, such as IUI.

Can I leave half a star because they certainly don't deserve any. I have called every single day trying to reach medical records and sent faxes. No response. I have no idea whether my faxes were received or my records are on the way. I am frustrated because I have an upcoming deadline and sent the paperwork at the beginning of the month. I mean...wow, this is just atrocious. My new doctor told me it would be a struggle to get records from these people, but I did not think it would be this bad. Zero stars.

I will begin with the positive: the Waltham office is clean and welcoming, and every ultrasound technician and phlebotomist I saw was professional and kind.
Unfortunately, my interactions with the nursing staff were not the same. It began after three failed IUIs. I was scheduled for an egg retrieval and fresh transfer. The weekend nurse did not tell me that my levels were too high for a fresh transfer and that they would now have to freeze any embryos retrieved. No one told me until I arrived for the appointment. I was excited and emotional when I was told minutes before the procedure that I would not receive a fresh transfer, along with an apology that the weekend nurse had never informed me. After the retrieval and my next menstrual cycle, I was told that my transfer would be completed before the end of the year. I needed to know this for insurance purposes, and the staff assured me it would happen. When it was time to order medication, however, the pharmacy told me prior authorization was required but my doctor's office had not submitted one. After considerable back-and-forth, it was finally submitted and denied. It was denied because it had never been submitted before, which I confirmed with my insurer, although the nurse insisted it had been. They resubmitted it and it was approved...strange how that happened. All this back-and-forth caused a delay of more than a week, making it impossible to complete the transfer before the end of the year as promised and requiring me to pay for the procedure out of pocket. I received no sympathy from the nursing staff for their mistake and decided to proceed with the cycle. When I ultimately decided that the out-of-pocket cost was too high, I called the office 4 days before the transfer date and canceled. I received an email saying they had received my message and that the financial coordinator would call on Monday to collect a cancellation fee. That was the response I received from the team responsible for this entire mess. No apology, no compassion—only an email saying okay, thank you, we will collect your money next week. Pathetic. I was also told a patient advocate would contact me. It has been three weeks and I still have not received a call. I have received only several emails saying she would contact me, but it still has not happened. At Boston IVF, I absolutely felt like just a number, and after everything I experienced, I do not believe they care about their patients. After a year of treatment and spending thousands of dollars, you would think I would receive some form of apology for their negligence, or at least the follow-up call promised by the patient advocate. Instead, I was only told how much more money I owed them.

This clinic is terrible. It is impossible to reach anyone. I needed a specific test at a specific time, but no one returned my call, and I ultimately lost valuable time. Now I must wait until next month to try again. I have never experienced so much bureaucracy in my life. I do not recommend this clinic.

Echoing Will above. The exact same situation. The expected turnaround time for my SA results has come and gone, and still nothing.
I have called, and my PCP's office has called. We both left messages on their 'it may take 5 business days to return your call' service. For anyone outside Boston, this appears to be the only way to communicate with the Boston IVF care team short of going there in person and loudly asking in the waiting room why a test that takes about a day to process needs a month to be reviewed and sent to my PCP. The request is simply for someone to complete paperwork. That is all.
If they are this indifferent about something small, I wonder what else would go wrong if my wife and I used Boston IVF for more expensive services. Needless to say, we will not. Completely unacceptable.

I am extremely disappointed with the service provided by Boston IVF. My experience was frustrating and unprofessional. My partner and I completed a semen analysis in August, and they took an entire month to fax the results. During that time, we tried countless times to contact their outside patient center—at least 15 calls—but no one returned a call to me or my doctor.
We obtained the results only because my doctor personally contacted the department manager. This level of communication is completely unacceptable for a medical facility, especially one dealing with fertility. The lack of response and disregard for patient concerns is shocking. The entire experience was a joke.

I did not feel supported here during my fertility journey. Scheduling appointments and reaching anyone by phone were challenging. They often had no availability, forcing me to wait an entire cycle for an appointment. A coding error on testing resulted in a huge bill, and it took months of billing follow-up to correct. When I finally decided to leave, they were very unprofessional. Despite ample time and repeated reminders, they did not send my medical records to the new clinic in time for my appointment.
I would not recommend them.

Communication was poor. During my year of treatment at BIVF, I constantly played phone tag and left or received voicemails. That said, the staff were nice and did their jobs well. I never had a bad in-person experience. My only problem was reaching them because they rarely answered the phone.

Dr. Bartolotto was wonderful. He anticipated our questions before we asked and was very kind and thorough.
