Getting Started

Just as there are many factors that can cause infertility, there are also many factors that can affect your chances for successful infertility treatment.

At FSMG/SDCRS, the couple is an important part of the treatment team. We rely on you to provide us with complete and accurate information about your medical history and to communicate openly with us while you are in our care. That is why we strongly encourage both partners to attend the initial consultation which lasts approximately two hours. It is also helpful to receive medical records of any previous diagnostic testing or treatment you may have had.

To make your first visit with us as successful as possible, we ask that you complete all paperwork ahead of time and bring with you:

  • Completed Pre-consult Questionnaire
  • All previous medical records, unless you have mailed them ahead of time

Consult Appointment

Each patient will have an extensive discussion with the physician during which the patient and partner's history, medical records, tests results and surgical reports will be reviewed. We may also perform a complete physical examination, including a detailed ultrasound of the pelvis and routine screening tests. However, in many cases, we have to wait for the correct time in your cycle before we can perform some of these tests. Some couples who have brought all of their previous records, operative reports and radiology films might be ready to initiate treatment after their first visit. But for couples who need additional testing, a follow-up visit to review the results and set a plan of care will be needed once testing is completed. These tests can usually be completed within four weeks or one menstrual cycle.
