I had a wonderful experience at Neway - with Dr. Zimmermann and all the other staff. I had started my fertility treatment at another facility where I was disappointed by the impersonal treatment and lack of attention. At Neway, I felt very supported and attended to throughout the entire process by all the staff. Dr. Zimmermann impressed me with his expertise and extensive experience and by his attention, sensitivity, and compassion, which are essential during this very difficult and anxiety - provoking process. Further, being able to see the same doctor for every appointment was very important to me and was missing at the other clinics. Dr. Zimmermann's treatment plan felt personalized rather than just following protocol and during the more complicated parts of the treatment, he followed me very closely, reducing my stress levels and leaving me feeling reassured about the process.
I spoke to Dr. Zimmermann about potentially using doner eggs for my wife. He was very patient and explained the entire process in details. Highly recommend.
The visit was informative. I appreciated the honesty and level of detail asked during the visit. I look forward for next steps.
Dr. Zimmerman & his staff were very professional. I felt at ease and comfortable discussing my infertility with him. Everything was broken down so that I understood the next steps.
