The office staff member must be under some disillusionment that she is running the hottest night club in town vs. a doctor's office. I called to make an appointment. I was told that the doctors are very careful about what patients they take in and that "it was an application process." That raised some yellow flags and I agreed to complete an application. The staff member then asked for my insurance information, which I provided (it is a generous commercial group PPO plan). The staff member then incorrectly informed me that while the specialty and fertility center was in-network with my insurance company, that Clovis Community was not. This is just categorically wrong: Clovis Community is an in-network hospital, verified with my insurance company. Even then I said that was fine: my insurance coverage is generous enough that my out of network care is reimbursed as if it was in-network. She lectured me that wasn't how they worked. I hung up at that point: it was clear they didn't want my business. I can only assume that - in the best case scenario - that the office member was misinformed. In the worst case scenario, they were applying racial screening or other screening. In any case, definitely not the kind of office you want to be dealing with during such an important and sensitive time in your life. Stay away.

Dr.Tais is the first naturopathic physician to treat me. I scoured the websites looking for a…read morenaturopath in the Fresno area, with the understanding my insurance would not cover any of my treatments with any such doctor. I had been quite ill for about three years and became frustrated with all of the poking and prodding ( 3 surgeries, and 1 year of physical therapy) my primary and all 14 specialists were asking me to endure. My labs, tests, cat-scans, MRI's and surgical findings always came up "inconclusive" or just "slightly off/out of range", no real definitive answer or name for why I felt so awful and my body was morphing into someone I no longer recognized. After the last major surgery I was desperate to feel well again and deteriorating quickly, with no faith in the physicians and surgeons caring for me. My primary said I was just a sensitive woman and indicated I may just have anxiety issues. Enough was enough, I took a leap of faith and emailed Dr. Tais who kindly responded and answered my questions about billing, payments , labs, and tests before scheduling a first visit via email. She let me know I was welcome to telephone with any other questions. I did telephone and she called me back, I was a little surprised at first because rarely does the actual provider speak to you on the phone themselves. Upon our first visit I found Dr. Tais to be kind, caring, patient, and a very good listener. She ordered a few labs, requested all of my records from my previous 14 specialists and primary care doctor and said she'd phone when results came in. In ONE VISIT and ONE ROUND OF LABS she chose to order she found the culprits of my rapidly declining health!! ONE VISIT !!!!! I was relieved and upset all at once, I wasn't crazy after all and SHE found out what was wrong in ONE VISIT!!! One of my first questions after wrapping my head around the treatment and the fact that I absolutely knew something was wrong with my health was..... "Did my previous panel of physicians miss this key indicator in my many rounds of labs with them?" Yes , they did!! It was right there in the labs that they forwarded to her themselves in black and white. It has taken everything in me to not go back in to every one of their offices and point out on their labs and her labs the egregious oversight that robbed me of 3 years of my life!! The doctors that my insurance would cover visits for wasted my time, resources, ordered time away from work, and missed my children's many milestones (years of my life) because they overlooked their own orders and labs. I am not a wealthy person and have paid a few thousands of dollars over the past three years trying to resolve my health issues. Had I only known about Dr. Tais and her practice I would have spared the three years of damage to my body, and had a much healthier and larger savings account. She is now the only doctor I trust, I chose to continue with her practice even after pinpointing the root cause of all of my many symptoms and am now a loyal and lifelong patient. I am feeling so much better now and we are working to fine tune the treatments to get me back to optimal health!!! The follow up visits (much less than the initial setup appointment) aren't too much more expensive than my regular copays with my health insurance and my husband agrees that Dr.Tais is worth every penny!!!

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.

Then, we found The Center for Fertility & Gynecology. This particular practice, Drs. Kalan, Vermesh & Winkler, have so much to offer medically, but what is more, they show outstanding concern for their patients as individuals. You are never just medical protocol with these doctors! Their years of experience and love of helping people overcome infertility are very evident. Our son was born last week and my husband and I are eternally grateful to this practice and these doctors.

From the initial consultation, he was so warm and explanatory. He answered all my questions (without irritation) and we had a go forward plan. Ultimately, we did two unsuccessful IUIs (out of pocket) and did one round of IVF (mostly covered by insurance). We were fortunately successful with round one of IVF and I am currently 23 weeks with our baby boy! We transferred two embryos, one was a blighted ovum and one successfully stuck. I had a few random days of spotting, likely from the blighted ovum and each freak out email I sent to Maribel, she calmed me down lol. They also allowed me to come in an additional week for a scan to make sure all was good while I waited for my OB appointment. The only minor inconvenience (which is the case with every fertility specialist in Bakersfield) is that for IUIs, egg retrievals, and transfers, you have to go to his Encino office and the lab there. Not a terrible ride from Bakersfield, but just FYI. He was also really good about scheduling and flexibility in life. If you are in need of a fertility specialist and live in Bakersfield, don't waste your time with anyone else. Dr. Kalan and his staff are the best and I don't say that lightly!
