I am pleased that I decided to go to Kindbody to freeze my eggs. I have only received excellent service, the staff and nurses are on top of it, and as a bonus, the clinic at Century City Mall is cute, cozy, and clean. read more

I made the decision to go to Kindbody for a fertility consultation. I'm on the older end of the spectrum to be a first time mom (40 years). I went in after having read on the internet that it's so hard to get pregnant and there are so many complications and blah blah blah. I could not have felt more reassured after my first visit. From day 1, the doctors, nurses, techs and staff at Kindbody were as committed to my dream of becoming a mom as I was. At every step of the way I felt cared for and empowered to make the decisions that were right for me. Ultimately we found out that I had a polyp and once that was removed (which Kindbody helped me with) I got pregnant a few months later. You will not find more compassionate care anywhere. These women are all such superstars and are top notch. They helped make my dream come true, and I know they can do the same for so many other folks. read more

Went to both this location and their other Santa Monica location as well. Both were very disappointing when it came to scheduling, charges that were presented after the fact, presenting services as "free" when they are not. Using words like "monthly special" when they are still charging your insurance on which you end up paying a deductible to. Very SCAM like. When you try to reach out to someone, you get passed around. No one really wants to understand because they know they were at the wrong to begin with. Very disappointed. No invoices presented beforehand, no one explained results in detail. If you will visit, please either record/ get invoices up front for these "monthly specials" or better yet go somewhere else read more

Wonderful staff and beautiful location! I look forward to the journey knowing I'm in great hands.

Customer service was amazing from beginning to end and I felt really welcome and comfortable. Overall best doctor visit I've had in a long time. read more

Hi, I never write reviews but this one NEEDS to be written. This place has too many locations and not enough people to support you. They can't actually provide the services that they promise. Go here, but a warning- it WILL look beautiful externally, but it's actually very MESSY, disorganized, and misleading internally. 1) My husband was not given appropriate instructions before giving his "specimen" (how many days to wait, before etc) which caused inaccurate results. They sent DEVASTATING and INACCURATE results on a Friday night without a way to call and speak to a doctor. We spent the whole weekend devastated until we could get in touch with a doctor. He was retested correctly at UCLA Health and everything looks great and actually above average. 2) My saline bubble study was SO incredibly painful. It took three women to assess the uterine cavity, and I was left with unknown results, and without being able to see my tube functioning. I was referred out for an HSG and it was painful but way less painful than the saline at Kind Body, which is unheard of. The doctor at my HSG got it done immediately by himself. 3) When checking out at the front desk from my Saline Bubble Study I was told it was $30 with my insurance. 2 weeks later I received a $500 bill saying I owed that for the Saline Bubble Study. I messaged the billing department and they said they have to "get back to me" and I still haven't heard back. 4) My husband got 4 (!!) vials of blood drawn for his "fertility assessment" but they DID NOT check his blood for reproductive hormones during this "assessment." Why take that much blood and only check for STI's? This makes no sense. 5) I got my blood taken for my "fertility assessment" and still haven't gotten the results explained to me. I also received a bill for $140 from the lab 3 weeks after my blood draw that I wasn't aware of. 6) I received SOMEONE ELSE'S medical records on my portal. (I told the doctor and she apologized and said she would fix it- but YIKES. Do you really want to go somewhere, where your confidential health records may be shared??!!) As soon as this happened I knew it would be my last appointment. 7) If you are expecting a call from a doctor, and you miss it or get disconnected, there is NO way to get back in touch. Good luck calling the main office #- you won't get through. 8) My OB (from Cedars) calls me back immediately when I call him about questions, etc. His clinic is incredibly busy as well but it's SO reassuring to be able to get in touch with my doctor. For such an incredibly stressful time in life when you're dealing with fertility, having a place that is reliable and trusted is a MUST. Sorry, this place did not meet the mark on SO many levels. I wish the above wasn't true but it is 100%. Save yourself the grief and go somewhere less pretty, but more reliable. read more

Very professional experience and I was provided detailed information regarding my personal goals for my future family. Thankful overall!

Kindbody is a 100 out of 10. THE decor. Every location is decorated clean, warm and inviting. I absolutely love the sign and take pictures by it it's always so fun and pretty. The staff at every Kindbody location is knowledgeable, kind, understanding, and people you would like to be your best friend. I have work more with Dr. Brower at the Santa Monica location who is amazing and understanding and always takes time out to explain every little detail. read more

I had a really positive experience at KindBody in LA. My case was pretty straightforward, and I found the staff very efficient, sensitive and experienced. I felt very comfortable at both the Santa Monica and Century City locations. Dr. Mehr was wonderful, checked in on me regularly during the egg freezing process and after the retrieval procedure. I would highly recommend to other women and their partners! read more

Please know I sorted out the following matters with a lovely, understanding person from their NYC head office who refunded me due to the experience with the Santa Monica front desk. My exam with the nurse though at Santa Monica location was great and Bianca was deft and adroit upon her follow up. - Disorganized person at front desk / administration. I dealt with Yanisel and my experience with her is what made my overall experience frustrating. - I made the appt in August, 2020 through the 1888 phone number. A - Call center based in NY sent out emails for Santa Monica front desk to contact me multiple times in advance to book earlier appointments which were available. I never heard from Yanisel until the day of my October 15th appointment. I had been calling the 1888 number from August and Sept and then gave up and stuck with the Oct 15th appt. - I arrived on time on Oct 15th and Yanisel turned me away due to not having my physical insurance card but she did take my ID and scan it. However, I did give my insurance card number over the phone. - Yanisel gave me the next appointment for the following week Oct 21st. Upon arriving on the 21st, Yanisel did not accept my physical insurance card because it needs uploading to my online portal profile. She also asked for my ID again. I asked her if she could please upload my insurance card into the Kindbody portal, since I was already in the office. - Nurse Bianca who gave my annual exam was very professional with excellent bedside manners. - Fantastic call center staff who did a great job answering all my questions and concerns. read more

Such a great environment to really learn and understand the fertility journey. I felt so safe, comfortable and informed by all of the staff. I'm glad they are making this information more accessible for women. Highly recommend! read more

The office didn't feel stuffy like a typical doctors office. The staff was also super friendly, all the way down to the Dr. I felt like it was a safe space without judgement. It's definitely going to be my regular place for my OBGYN visits. I also saw a lot of men there which was refreshing to see. I definitely recommend. read more

Amazed by my experience at Kindbody! What worked was the ease ability with making the appointment, the office is clean and vibrant, inviting and the staff is not just helpful, but SMART. I was really happy I could speak to a live agent when I needed to multiple times. INITIAL Eval with NP Lisa. She is phenomenal!! She is super educated and made me feel really comfortable. I even got to do my wellness exam the same day as my fertility assessment so they accommodated to my personally really saved my time which is really important to me. I felt I had a customized experience which is always valuable in healthcare. read more

100/10 I became aware of Kindbody because of social media and was super drawn to the warm, open, empowered energy they showed through their online presence. I felt very excited to pursue support for my health, as a woman from other women who were proud and accepting and totally free from any shame or awkwardness. My first experience at Kindbody did not disappoint! Everyone was kind and wonderful. The office was beautiful and warm -- loved all the yellow and the art and the books and the general feeling of comfort the space evoked. The doctor I saw was so kind and made me feel so comfortable and taken care of. I will absolutely be going back. Thank you for doing what you do for women! Especially today, I am more grateful than I can express to have this resource. I know it is a great privilege. Thank you. read more

Kindbody - Clinic Entrance - Fertility Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Fertility talk is not always fun and when I walked in for my appointment I had so much anxiety that I was sweaty and had the jitters. The staff in Santa Monica was so friendly and helpful that my anxiety was quickly gone, they went step by step of each process and helped me through it as I needed. I couldn't be more thankful!!!! This jourbe isn't going to be so bad with them helping me!! read more

The ladies are very knowledgeable and informative from start to finish. You will leave knowing from where you stand what you'll need to do to conceive read more

My husband and I first met with Dr. Brower to discuss our journey and the challenges we had in getting pregnant. After 2 fibroid, 4 failed IUI attempts and lots of unsuccessful trigger shots with other doctors we decided to try IVF with Dr. Brower at Kindbody Santa Monica. This proved to be a great decision as we were blessed with a beautiful baby boy in November. Dr. Brower and the Kindbody team are simply amazing! They made our experience truly wonderful with the absolute best result. Dr. Brower is very calm and knowledgeable and allowed us to ask her many questions. I never felt rushed when on the phone or in an appt with her. I am an anxious person with a lot of questions so all of this was a big deal for me. The admin staff and nurses at Kindbody Santa Monica made me feel so welcomed. They were part of my extended family during this process. Aside from the amazing staff, they have a WhatsApp account for emergencies, which was very nice because the IVF process is very intimidating, and I was getting almost immediate responses to my questions. They also use a portal for direct communication with their finance team, doctors, medical and admin staffs. I received daily email confirming my medication in the portal which was great because the dosage would/may change after each visit and it was all listed in the portal with videos showing how to mix the medication, when needed, and how to administer. We did have some hiccups with the payments so I recommend the cost is discussed upfront but we figured it out at the end. If we decide to try for baby number two I would definitely come back to Dr. Brower and the Kindbody team. read more

The Santa Monica facility is gorgeous and so clean. The staff was so welcoming, their bed side manner was amazing and the NP who came in to review the ultrasound was incredibly informative and helpful. Such a great experience. read more

I am so thrilled with Kindbody and Dr. Brower. I had an initial consultation for egg freezing today, and Dr. Brower took over an hour answering all my questions. I know there are some articles out there saying Kindbody is a marketing scam and egg freezing isn't a sure bet, etc etc, but Dr. Brower was super upfront with me about the risks and didn't try to sell me on the procedure at all. She very clearly laid out the pros and cons from a scientific medical standpoint. She said that although they can get a sense of how many eggs you may have, they cannot get a sense of their quality and thus, a viable pregnancy is not guaranteed. Furthermore, she said a lot of things need to go right to become pregnant (healthy sperm, etc) so while egg freezing is an option, it's not without its flaws. She didn't scare me about my age or judge me for my current place in life - she just listened and gave me her honest opinion. Even though it was just an initial consult, I was blown away by how professional and patient she was. Although egg freezing may not be for everyone, I'm really thankful to have the option and be able to get good information from a trustworthy doctor. If you're interested, I would highly recommend Dr. Brower!! I will update my review if I decide to go forward with the process! read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Brower enough. She is absolutely wonderful. When a friend recommended her saying "Dr. Brower is amazing!" I was skeptical. My friend was 100% accurate. I've been through both SCRC and HRC and was delighted (and a bit shocked) by the kind, caring, individualized treatment at Kindbody. I have had nothing but good experiences at Kindbody, even when I was getting bad news, having a hormonal cry fest, or having an unpleasant procedure. Dr. Brower and her staff have offered to hold my hand more than once (and I've needed it). She and her staff are patient and generous. Dr. Brower/Kindbody hits all of the major important qualities: professionalism, timeliness, transparency. But she also goes above and beyond and it is the small things that I'm really impressed by: the hand holds, the words of encouragement, the nonjudgmental stance. I honestly thought that all fertility clinics were like cattle calls where they are churning through patients, no one is really communicating other than the bare minimum, there is a huge turnover in staff, and you can't get a call back. Again, Kindbody and Dr. Brower have definitely broken that mold. Unlike at previous clinics, the staff seem to enjoy their jobs, are able to take time to respond in a timely manner, and make sure to take the time to answer all questions and make sure everything is taken care of. The clinics are beautiful, clean, calm, and have a wonderfully modern aesthetic. Another thing to love: transparent pricing. Unlike previous experiences, I don't get the sense that they are trying to nickel and dime me, or price gouge. They're reasonably priced, especially as someone who is paying completely out of pocket. Pro tip if you go to the Santa Monica location: there is often 1 hour parking metered parking if you park on Santa Monica. It's a quick block and a half walk to the office. read more

So, I'll start off by saying that I'm so happy places like this exist and have been waiting for an extra long time for Kindbody to open a Los Angeles location (they originated in New York). I'm 39 years old, and have been interested in having a fertility assessment done to see what exactly I have going on with my lady parts. My husband and I have just started talking about family planning, but we're not exactly ready to start this moment. I had some concerns about what options I may have and really wanted to know what my egg count was looking like as well. Let's talk about the space first. Kindbody is located in Santa Monica. Not quite downtown, which is great, but still in an area that may be hard to find parking, so keep that in mind when showing up for your appointment. I found some metered street parking right across the street, luckily. The office is small and obviously new. Clean and bright. Like Edelweiss. There was just one girl at the front desk. She was nice. And then there's Dr. Brower, also very nice. So why the 2 stars? Well, everything about my experience was pleasant. I have nothing to complain about there. I just felt like I walked away 200 dollars (and that's with a sale, regular price $300) in the hole without receiving much information at all. Dr. Brower did explain to me what they could do there today and what that meant. She was helpful, knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease. However, from that conversation alone, it didn't look like I would be learning much given what they could do for me. I was actually already thinking that I wish there was some way to have made this aware during the intake process online. She did tell me that I would get to know my egg count with the ultra-sound, only to find out that my ovaries were very "quiet" which may or may not be due to the birth control I take. Well, that would've been helpful to know too - that being on birth control could impede the ability to detect things on the ultrasound. Not anyone's fault at the facility, but something Kindbody as a whole should consider informing their potential patients prior to intake. She gave me a list of bloodwork that I could have done (at my own facility, because I have Kaiser and so if I had it done with Kindbody it'd be an additional cost). So in a nutshell, I paid $200 to be told nothing really aside from the fact that she was able to detect signs of a condition that I should probably look into further, which was definitely helpful, but I really had wished for more. All in all, it felt like a complete rip-off, unfortunately. That's not to say this place wouldn't be beneficial for people who are actively trying and would like information as to why it's not working, etc. I think this is really what they should specialize in, and I think Dr. Brower would be a phenomenal resource for that. I just feel these fertility assessments that are advertised just seem like a way to take money from people without really being able to detect anything conclusive. Disappointment. read more

I'm so happy to have found Kindbody. A friend referred me and every interaction and experience has exceeded expectations. When I call someone picks up right away, I never get put on hold for 45 minutes, everyone is incredibly friendly and communication through the portal is prompt and thorough. I refer kindbody to all my friends! read more

Before coming to Kindbody, I was previously a patient at a well-known clinic in Beverly Hills. I couldn't believe how different this experience was. Dr. Brower is the loveliest human being (so warm, non-judgmental, kind) and also an incredible physician--I very much trusted her and her guidance throughout treatment. Anne the nurse there is also amazing--so, so knowledgeable, kind, and quick to answer questions. Honestly, I had a wonderful experience with everyone at the Santa Monica clinic, from the receptionist to the sonographer to the phlebotomist. The biggest difference from the well-known Beverly Hills clinic was that Kindbody does NOT feel like a cattle call kind of situation. The doctor at the BH clinic was amazing, but the clinic and staff was obviously overbooked and overwhelmed and patients felt it. I know Kindbody is incredibly busy, but you don't feel it as a patient. Finally, pricing is transparent and fair, and that mattered a lot to me as a patient paying completely out of pocket. read more

I consider myself very lucky to be ready for fertility assistance at a time when women's health is finally being talked about in the open. And to have a clinic that feels like I'm at my best friends house instead of an outdated 1980s doctors office gives me the calm that I know I'll need throughout the process of reciprocal ivf. I feel like if it were even 5 years ago, I would be just another number in a sterile room at UCLA getting my questions answered as quickly as possible, then leaving ordering books online to give me the information I wasn't offered. I'm very excited to start this process. I've never been excited to visit a gynecologist before. Thank you for an amazing first visit. read more

I honestly don't know why Kindbody has a 3.5 rating right now. I guess it's because it just opened and there aren't enough reviews yet. Well, I'd like to fix that. I would give Kindbody 10 stars if I could. I got my eggs frozen with them in December/January, and my nurse, Ann Amores, and Dr. Meredith Brower were amazing in every way. So was Kayla, the lady who did my ultrasounds (she was the *SWEETEST* person). I honestly could not have asked for a better experience. I was going to go with another egg freezing clinic until I realized that Kindbody was opening in LA just in time (I had been following them on social media for a year). I was so happy!! I asked for a detailed breakdown of the prices per test from the other clinic and compared them to Kindbody's prices - Kindbody was a third of the price on every test, and also, it's run entirely by women (and great women, too). This was a HUGE deal for me. At the other clinic I felt condescended to and like I was just a number. That is not at all how it felt at Kindbody. I couldn't understand how their prices were so much lower, and they explained it's because of the outside funding they've received. I also really loved their online portal through which I could enter any updates to my cycle and get videos and details on everything that was to come, along with a calendar and super cute online profile. I felt generally cared for and looked after at Kindbody. I did not feel this way at the other place. I was constantly emailing Ann with questions and she was like a superhero, answering every question at all hours of the day and night (I probably shouldn't be advertising this because I think she was just doing this out of the kindness of her heart!). And as I mentioned, Kayla who did my ultrasounds was so sweet. It made me feel at ease, knowing she would be the one doing it, as I trusted her. And also, I felt no pain, so she obviously knows exactly what to do to keep things comfy. And Dr. Brower... what a great, great doctor. She is super kind, professional, knowledgable, and calm. I had some strange giggling reaction to some meds on the day, and she just smiled along with me and said "I'll have what she's having." I then had a weird anxiety-ridden moment when I was coming off the meds, and she was super calm and reassured me I had done great. And she got so many eggs! In short, I STRONGLY recommend Kindbody, and most of all, Dr. Brower is FANTASTIC (and a real asset to them). Truly. Please, please, please do yourself a favor and choose Kindbody. I'm so, so, so glad I did. (it was a no-brainer) I'm 35 and feel like I've taken control of my future and generally feel so much more at ease about my life just knowing I have a little freezer of my eggs that will not be aging along with me. I know there are no guarantees, but it still feels really good. Freeze your eggs, ladies, and get it done with Kindbody! ;) read more

The staff was so friendly and helpful and answered all my questions. Very real, human and personable which i appreciate. Super accommodating and just overall lovely experience! read more

Completed two rounds of wgg freezing. I lived the ease of care, explanation of my health and the procedure process have all been amazing! I enjoyed the friendliness and familiarity of the staff and easy access to information. read more

I was so resistant to the idea of getting my eggs frozen, but the crew at Kindbody made it as pleasant as humanly possible! Literally everyone I encountered was kind, warm, and helpful. I worked with Dr. Kathiresan for the most part, and she was an angel. She was so thoughtful in her approach to my care and even called me at home on a Saturday evening after I sent her a message with some concerns. Dr. Brower did my actual retrieval, and she was incredibly warm and professional. I cannot recommend them highly enough and have told my friends - do not go anywhere else! read more

Since Nicole's response to my review Kindbody has not contacted me. It is evident the systems in place are disingenuous and chaotic. I have since found a different doctor. read more

What an incredible experience. Everything you wish your doctor visit would be. Short wait times, Detailed, thoughtful, Compassion, informative, efficient and proactive!! read more

Friendly staff, amazing bedside manners, all eager to answer my questions and help with my journey. Best visit to a clinic ever

I had a wonderful experience here. The staff is so friendly and help. The woman who did my ultrasound was awesome and Lisa is amazing! Wonderful bedside manner. She was able to break things down in a way that I could understand unlike other doctors I've had in the past. I was a little skeptical but I'm so glad that I tried them out. Will definitely continue to keep going! read more

Outstanding service! I fainted during my blood draw and they were the sweetest. They went straight to the point during my visit. Totally worth my money and time.

Love that I wasn't the only brown face in there! Came in for my annual. Also Bianca was so helpful, and answered all my questions.

Can't wait to come back for my fertility appointment. read more

Each experience interacting with staff was positive and very helpful. The doctor was patient and explained everything clearly and educated me on what was seen on my ultrasound.

First timer! Loved the experience of being able to book something within a week easy to reach on the phone staff and super kind and helpful. Loved how everything was super organized and they were able to get my insurance processed quickly. Sometimes it can be tricky with the insurance bc they don't bill right away and not able to tell me if I will end up paying a co-pay - that was super helpful. And the PA I saw and the nurses were super nice and helpful. Oh and the clinic is super pleasant and chic! read more
