His knowledge, intuition, and compassion changed our lives forever, and I will be grateful to him for the rest of my life. Just as incredible is his entire staff is kind, supportive, responsive, and made us feel cared for every step of the way. We could not have done this without them, and we will be forever grateful. After 5 years of trying to get pregnant, multiple doctors, 2 egg retrievals, and 4 failed transfers, I came to Dr. Bryan Acacio with unexplained infertility and very little hope. From our first consult, Dr. Acacio truly listened. I suspected endometriosis, which previous doctors dismissed, but he insisted on surgery and found stage 2 endo. He also ran an autoimmune panel that revealed genetic variations affecting implantation testing my prior doctors never pursued. He immediately recommended PGT testing, which finally gave us answers. He also listened to my concerns about timing during retrieval. This time, we waited one extra day--and the results were life-changing: 11 eggs retrieved, 9 mature, 7 blasts, and 5 genetically normal embryos. In November, we transferred two embryos. After the longest 11 days of my life, I got the call I was pregnant. Two weeks later, we learned both embryos had implanted. To the future parents: there's a light a the end of this journey. Keep fighting it will be worth it

I was referred by a friend and contacted the office to inquire about scheduling. Rather than advising me of the upcoming closure, the staff took down my information and told me I would be contacted in January when their schedule "opens up." This was misleading and unprofessional. If an office knows it is shutting down, that information should be communicated transparently during the initial call. Instead, I was given false expectations and wasted time based on information that was not accurate. I find this type of business practice concerning. If something as basic as an office closure is not communicated honestly, it raises questions about what else may not be handled with transparency. I would not recommend this office.

    I'm so happy I chose Dr. Ghazal to work with for my Infertility and IVF journey! Dr. Ghazal and…read morethe whole staff really made me feel comfortable and confident that I was getting the very best treatment possible. Not only is the office BEAUTIFUL, but the girls who work there are so warm and inviting. You can't walk by anyone without them saying 'hi' or asking how you're doing. I had been to other fertility specialists before and am so happy that I chose to go with Dr. Ghazal! She is up to date with the latest technology and treatment options and was able to guide us through this complicated and difficult process. If you don't understand something she takes the time to explain (and for me, re explain.) the process, even if it's not during normal business hours. She's so sweet delivering the good (and the bad) news, which is so comforting.. some doctors may look at you as a number or just a chart, but you can tell Dr Ghazal is just as invested in the outcome as you are. Thank you Dr Ghazal, Molly, Heidi, Krystal, and Maggie for helping us through this time! I am now pregnant with a beautiful baby boy and am due this December! We are so happy and look forward to continuing to grow our family with Dr. Ghazal in the future! (Best 'I told you so' ever!!)

    After 3 failed cycles, my husband and I decided to change fertility clinics and received a…read morerecommendation to check out RISE. Needless to say, it was one of the best decisions we have ever made! During our initial consultation with Dr. Ghazal, we could tell that her approach was very different than most fertility doctors. We had two embryos remaining from my retrieval at my prior clinic, and wanted to transfer one of those embryos. During a consultation with another clinic, we were told by the doctor that he "would never use" the remaining embryos due to their grading. Dr. Ghazal disagreed with that approach. When we asked what medicine regimen Dr. Ghazal would use, she advised us that she needed to invest time reviewing my medical records to come up with a personalized recommendation. She would not utilize a cookie-cutter "one size fits all" approach like most fertility doctors seem to do. Dr. Ghazal then prepared a detailed plan to use an "modified natural cycle," which involved less medication than I had to take during my failed cycles. That plan also required more doctor visits to monitor my ovulation cycle. Dr. Ghazal was very dedicated to our cause that she opened the office for appointments on weekends and offered to schedule my FET on Thanksgiving if necessary. She was also was able to identify a medical condition that very likely caused my prior failed cycles and easily fixed the issue. Dr. Ghazal is someone whose brain seems to operate on a wholly different wavelength. She is knowledgeable while remaining humble, able to listen to her patients' needs, very empathetic to our concerns, and cheered us on throughout the cycle. Needless to say, her bedside manner is top-notch. Beyond the doctor, the staff at RISE is the best we have encountered in any medical practice. I was fortunate to work with Laura (RN). Laura has extensive medical training and was well equipped in answering my questions. By contrast, the coordinators at my previous clinic seemed to have little training, and merely acted as messengers for the doctors. Laura was also extremely responsive to my emails and phone calls (even at odd hours or on weekends) and was also personable at appointments. Crucially, Laura was also helpful in assisting us with transporting our embryos from my prior clinic to RISE. The RISE team (Allie, Angie, Heidi, Krystal, and Molly) were exceptional to work with! They genuinely became family throughout the process. A little less than a year after our initial consultation with Dr. Ghazal, I gave birth to our second child! As she lays in my arms, all I can think is how grateful I am that we chose to transfer our little "embryo that could" with Dr. Ghazal!

No matter how crazy, terrible, or even great my day has been, the times I spend on her table are always where I find the most peace. She just has that 'thing' that puts you at ease and heals you. Megan has been one of the biggest blessings of my life. I now have two beautiful little ones because of her support -- really. She is a miracle worker - and not just for fertility. I have counted on her, even recently, to help get me through cold season because I had gotten sick 4 times within 3 months. Once I started seeing her again, I am proud to say, I haven't been since! I could go on and on about her, but I will leave you with this. Too few in this world are lucky enough to encounter people like Megan. I could not recommend her and her team more highly.

She takes the time to always answer my questions, explain what's going on, and make sure by the time I leave, I feel comfortable and confident in our plan (hello first time mamas out there!). Additionally, the clinic is so patient-centric. You can easily make and change appts online via their portal, see test results, view notes from your appointments, and the wait time thus far has never been ridiculous (sometimes having your blood drawn or an ultrasound can take awhile, but it is a busy practice). I'm grateful to have a care team that seems to genuinely love what they do.

The…read moreadministrative burden, insurance pressures, and volume expectations placed on doctors are enormous, and I don't doubt that Dr. Baginski works very hard. That said, my experience was that the practice feels overextended to the point where patient care suffers. Despite having a large staff, my visits with Dr. Baginski were extremely brief (on the order of a few minutes), and there was little opportunity to ask questions, discuss the full clinical picture, or feel heard. I often felt like decisions were being made at me rather than with me. In my case, I was dealing with a complex situation involving abnormal uterine bleeding, iron-deficiency anemia, and multiple downstream symptoms. I was hoping for a more comprehensive, investigative approach, but the pace of the visit made that difficult. When care is rushed at that level, it's hard for patients to feel confident that all contributing factors are being thoughtfully considered. I imagine this practice may have grown very popular over time, which speaks to Dr. Baginski's reputation and experience. Unfortunately, it now feels like the volume may be too high to allow for the kind of careful, patient-centered care that complex cases require. This may be a good fit for patients with straightforward needs who are comfortable with a very fast-moving, high-throughput model. For patients with more complicated or evolving issues who need time, discussion, and a holistic approach, it may not be the right match.
