He is the best... intelligent, compassionate,experienced, high percentage of IVFsuccess, excellent surgeon

I think it's really important people read the most recent reviews. Dr. Acasio the doctor and person seem great to me. But something is going on. We too were scheduled for our thaw and fert when we got the call that the doctor would be on leave. No problem. Things happen. But clearly the office is in some form of chaos with no ability to communicate clearly, help with any processes necessary to change clinics and it even took them 3 months before they figured out their facility didn't even have our eggs. It's a mess. Maybe they'll get it back on track, but it almost feels like there is a big secret being protected and along the way, you'll be the one to wait and sacrifice. I get better service and attention at my local Starbucks, and that's only a cup of coffee at stake. read more

I'm a cancer survivor and have been to a lot of doctors. This is the only Drs office in my life that has charged a transaction fee on my co pay read more

Mayra seems to really hate people interaction. I called multiple times to schedule and appointment to start the process and she has always been so rude. Does not let you finish your sentence before cutting you off and saying dr is not taking appointments. After just asking for an email with the new patient documents. Also went to try and pick up the paperwork in person and doors were locked. I called and she answered again laughing before answering the call and was so upset that we called an interrupted her conversation. She should really consider not working for a facility that help people already going through a lot and looking for answers and hope. read more

Note: After being told on short notice to travel four hours away for ultrasounds and transfer, we looked online to understand why. That's when we learned from other patients' reviews that the Laguna office was reportedly closing. This was never disclosed to us directly. Transparency should not require patients to investigate online. Additionally, After concerns arose, the clinic attempted to redirect us to another physician within the same referral network. We ultimately chose to seek care independently, as we were no longer comfortable remaining within the same network. read more

I have been a patient at Acacio Fertility Center for about 6 months now, and I am just over 10 weeks pregnant with my little miracle baby! I have finally graduated as of this week to regular OB care. I would recommend Dr. Acacio to anyone looking for expertise in fertility care. I was at the clinic for IVF treatments, personally, but they do offer plenty of other fertility care options as well. We were drawn to this clinic based on reading reviews and noticing the extensive list of services offered because my husband needed a procedure as well to make our baby. Dr. Acacio referred us to an amazing and highly experienced doctor in LA for my husband's TESE procedure, which took place the same day as my egg retrieval. You start your experience by filling out lots of paperwork to ensure they can get a good idea of your medical history. Then you have a consultation from Dr. Acacio to get an idea of what types of services might be best suited for your situation. From there, we began testing for more clues as to how to make the procedure/meds you are doing as successful as possible. After that, we were able to start our procedures which for IVF was egg retrieval and embryo transfer. Now I am pregnant! Dr. Acacio is very well educated, experienced, and has great bedside manner. He splits his physical time between this office in Bakersfield and his main office in Laguna Niguel. We did have to travel to Laguna Niguel for 3 procedures: egg retrieval, saline ultrasound, and embryo transfer. The Laguna Niguel clinic is larger, but the staff there is pretty awesome. We especially liked Kasey, an MA there. She made us comfortable and put my mind at ease when we interacted with her! At Bakersfield clinic where I did most of my appointments, Ashley and Viridiana and Lynn are an amazing and compassionate team that really always went above and beyond my expectations to make sure I was comfortable, understood the info I was getting, and encouraged me along the way. Disclaimer, IVF is expensive. I appreciate the fact that they always tried submitting to my PPO insurance even if they knew it probably wouldn't be covered. Wendy, the financial coordinator, was very open and honest with us about options in the beginning, which really helped us make an educated decision about how we funded our IVF. Dr. Acacio's clinic is not your cheapest option available in So Cal, but he definitely brings experience/knowledge and a tailored plan to the table for the price. They want you to succeed in your journey and your health/embryos health to be a priority. My one critique during the process (which is very minor) was due to my process taking place during the holidays. There were 2 times I got an email or voicemail requesting info on Friday mornings, but I was not aware they were closing early for holidays or observation of holidays that occurred over the weekend. I really wish they would have said in the voicemail, emails, or on the website/Google the clinics were closing early those days! It ended up being fine in the long run and everything worked out, but it would have been very helpful to have that info rather than just call and find out the office closed early on a recording. It's just nice to have that info out there because some holidays I thought the office would be closed, it was open, and vice versa. If you are looking for a fertility clinic in the Central valley area, I highly recommend trusting Acacio Fertility for a positive and professional experience! I look forward to trusting them next time if I decide to transfer my final embryo! read more

Acacio Fertility Center - Excited to take pictures with my Follicle count ultrasound in the waiting room! - Fertility Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I couldn't recommend Dr. Acacio and his team's clinic more. I was referred here by a friend of mine and ended up doing 2 egg freezing cycles with them and I am very happy with the outcome. Their office is very organized, the team is sweet and warm, they answer emails and phone calls promptly, and they accommodate visits around your schedule as best as they possibly can. The clinic is very convenient as it's right off the freeway which made it ideal for quick ultrasounds prior to work. Kasey, Nicole, Mariana, Gabi are all simply wonderful and supportive every step of the way. Dr. Acacio is patient, kind, and honest, he makes you feel totally comfortable throughout the entire process. Dr. Hiscox is probably my favorite anesthesiologist I've ever had experience with (and I've been under a lot), he's so pleasant, charming, and has a delightful sense of humor, exactly the kind of presence you need before going to sleep prior to a procedure. Finally Dr. Scodras, the Senior Embryologist, is wonderful, he sends you detailed emails less than 24 hrs after the procedure with updates. Overall if you're looking for a fertility center, look no further, this is the place. Thank you all for the empowering experience. read more

I have been here a few times maybe 4 at the most. I come for monitoring since I have a home clinic and this one is closer to me. I got seen during ovulation prior to embryo transfer and the staff I've worked with have been great, amazing sweet and kind never an issue. Parking is never an issue and the care I am getting is for IVF treatment since I am a 2nd time surrogate. It's always clean in the office the rooms are spacious I have yet to meet the actual dr but again since I only get seen for monitoring it's mostly and mainly done by another nurse or Ultrasound Tech. ETA I met dr and he is so sweet, so nice, so everything! Yes yea yes definitely recommend this clinic! read more

Dr. Acacio and his team have been amazing as we've gone through our IVF journey. Not knowing anything about this process, they were great about walking my husband and I through all of the steps and answering our questions. Even when we became anxious, they were patient and helpful, sometimes reeexplaining steps multiple times. When our first attempt failed, we were devastated. However, Acacio was kind, compassionate, and most importantly, he preserved. He insisted on doing additional testing to find out what happened and discovered an issue. We are now expecting TWIN GIRLS and we couldn't be more happy with the Acacio team! read more

I cannot elaborate enough on how amazing this place is. We tried for 7 years to get pregnant and Dr Acacio made our dreams come true in 3 months. Not only that, it's twins!! We are over the moon with our results and the care and compassion we've received is beyond what we could have prayed for. Thank you Dr Acacio and team for being everything we needed. read more

My wife and I have been trying to have a baby for 7+ years. A new measure needed to be taken. We came across Dr. Acacio and his fertility Center, and went through the IVF program. Now we're having a Baby! Every step of the way we knew and felt that we could trust him and Nurse Viviana with all of our concerns & worries. Viviana was so helpful with us because we did have a lot of worries lol. This is my first time having a baby & I'm so happy to have gone through them. I recommend this place if you want a personal & positive experience. :) read more

I cannot recommend Acacio Fertility Center enough. We walked in to our first appointment overwhelmed and discouraged after two years of TTC. But Dr. Acacio and his team was nothing but supportive and helpful through our entire journey with IVF. Any questions or concerns I had (and there were plenty), they were happy to assist and discuss. They made me feel comfortable and were reassuring. We are so, so incredibly grateful for the work that they do and helped us achieve our happy results--we are expecting! If you are struggling with with infertility, you should definitely call Acacio's for a consultation! I am so glad we did! read more

My wife and I have been trying to start our family for years. After years of trying we decided to give Acacio a try. The staff is very kind and prompt. Dr. Acacio is also very thorough and explains everything very well. I couldn't ask for better, easier service. Thank you Team Acacio! read more

Let me start off by sharing the best news ever! I am officially 10 weeks pregnant...with TWINS!!!!! Dr. Acacio has made our dream come true! It didn't come easy and it isn't a quick process, but it happened!!! Finding an IVF doctor is incredibly intimidating and overwhelming, so I know these reviews are a helpful insight. You can tell his process is completely customized to you, not a one size fits all deal. Very promising. Personally, I couldn't be happier to recommend Dr. Acacio and his wonderful team. My fiancé and I had been trying to conceive for 8 years. Thankfully I found Dr. Acacio and thought we'd give it a shot. We soon set up an appointment. It was the best first step, towards this incredible journey, we could've made. Not to mention, he has a great staff behind him. Both at his Laguna Niguel and Bakersfield location. Everyone is so professional, personable, and helpful with any questions or concerns. Without a doubt, I would recommend Dr. Acacio to anyone who would ask. read more

My Wife and I had been trying to get pregnant for 5.5 years on our own. After multiple failed IUIs and several miscarriages, we decided to try for IVF. We spoke with Dr. Acacio during our initial consultation, and he was very calm, well spoken and explained the entire process from A-Z. We went through the entire process of egg retrieval to embryo transfer, and we are successfully pregnant! Dr. Acaio and his team have been wonderful, have explained the process very well and helped us to be very comfortable throughout the entire process. We will continue going back to Acacio and his team down the road until our Family is at the size we are expecting! read more

Where do I begin? Dr. Acacio and his team in Bakersfield and Laguna Niguel are great! Very warm, welcoming and professional.

5 years 4 different methods and one IVF fertility center is what it took to achieve something I thought would never happen. Thanks to Dr Acacio and his team my IVF journey was nothing short of amazing, Dr Acacio and his team thoroughly explain the process and provide assurance that they're on your side and want the absolute best for you, they focus on the "why" something may not have worked in the past and exhaust every resource to resolve what maybe a factor. Had it not been for Dr Acacio and the staff I wouldn't be pregnant now in just 6 months of choosing this fertility center. This fertility center is kind, understanding and so positive. I couldn't thank them all enough for helping my husband and I achieve such blessing. read more

Working with Acacio Fertility has been great! Dr Acacio is kind and thorough. His nursing staff at Bakersfield (V & Lori) are outstanding and made us feel so welcome. Working with a fertility doctor during a sensitive journey can be scary, but we were put at ease during our times of confusion or panic. We chose to do 2 rounds of IVF to freeze embryos for the future. This was the best decision for us and we are glad to have a compassionate team on our side. read more

It is difficult to write reviews for fertility clinics since there is so much inherent bias in terms of whether or not one recieves a positive outcome. My wife and I, both physicians, understand that online reviews are largely skewed in this regard and tend to focus on things like "customer service" and factors that are somewhat irrelevant to the quality of the medical care received. In our case, however, there is no choice but to give Dr. Acacio and his staff 5 stars. Briefly, my wife and I had been trying to build a family for about 5 years prior to seeing Dr. Acacio. We had gone through the diagnostics and treatments of 2 seperate fertility clinics with no positive results and only bad memories. After years of emotional rollercoasters, tears, false hope, exhaustion, and an increasing sense of resignation, we decided to switch clinics one more time before moving on with our lives. We had heard of Dr. Acacio through word of mouth and online publicity. Based out of Fresno and mainly working out of the Bakersfield office, committing to the time and logistics of arranging our care from hundreds of miles away was worth, in our opinion, the peace of mind knowing we were seeing someone so highly regarded in the reproductive endocrine field. We were "all in", one last time. Heading into our first appointment, our expectations were low given our prior experiences at other clinics. We could not have been more wrong. He thoroughly reviewed our medical history with us present, paying attention to every detail. Being physicians familiar with seeing new patients, the amount of time he spent developing a specific diagnostic and treatment plan to our case was striking. His bedside manner immediately struck us as exceptional and he went above and beyond all expectations we had heading in. As our case proceeded, changes and adjustments were made appropriately with his medical expertise. It was clear to both of us that he is passionate, attentive to details, and attune to the difficult emotional tolls that fertility treatments can levy. At our prior clinics, we had countless appointments where, walking out of the office, we would be holding back tears, only to break down in the parking lot while scrambling to the car. My wife and I were amazed that no matter what happened, we left every visit with Dr. Acacios office and staff feeling better, even when the news was less than stellar. Without getting into the details, 7 months have passed since that first appointment and we are blessed to be almost 12 weeks pregnant with our first child. The entire process was a 5 star experience. Even before our positive result, my wife and I marvelled at how different the process and experience was with Dr. Acacio compared to the other clinics. Without the positive result, there is no doubt in my mind that we would have at least taken comfort in the fact that Dr. Acacio offered us the latest, most advanced, and up-to-date medical care that fertility clinics have to offer. We would highly recommend Dr. Acacio to anyone struggling to build a family. We are blessed to have been able to afford the time, money, and effort, and couldn't be happier. Every case is different, and there are no guarantees in health care, but put us in the category of a couple who started with almost no hope, and now are blessed to have the experience of a pregnancy for the first time. Good luck to you all, and we hope that you will consider our experience in your decisions. read more

My experience has been beyond awesome with Dr. Acacio and his team. I've gone through literally everything! Had multiple failed IUI's and IVF's with other doctors, I got to the point that I have given up. After a while hubby and I scheduled an appt with him with extremely low hope and expectations. Things changed the moment I walked in his office, he made us feel very comfortable, his knowledge and understanding was impressive so we decided to give it the final attempt. I felt so confident and secure throughout the entire process, there was always someone there to help or simply answer any questions. I am currently 23 weeks pregnant!!! I can't thank them enough; the entire team is very professional and compassionate. We are very excited to welcome our babies to this world pretty soon and my gratitude goes to this amazing team. Thank you! read more

Dr. Acacio and his office staff have been amazing. My husband and I were trying for years to have a baby and did not have any luck. We had been to multiple doctors for answers and solutions but we could not find any until we met Dr. Acacio and his staff. We finally decided to go through with IVF and throughout this whole journey Dr. Acacio and his staff have made our dreams come true. Acacio and his staff from day one have called to see how we were doing and also guided us though the steps to becoming parents. They have taken their time with us and have been with us from the beginning. I would definitely recommend Dr. Acacio to other couples that are having issues with pregnancy and want answers. read more
