We went to Dr. Sharara after having multiple failures with a different clinic. Not only did he…read moretreat us with absolute care and compassion, but he was extremely thorough in exploring the causes of our infertility and treating the underlying conditions that could be impacting us. I am so grateful to Dr. Sharara. He was very honest and straightforward with us, and I really appreciated that. Our other clinic told us we had unexplained infertility, but Dr. Sharara actually did the investigative work to see what was going on. Through changes in lifestyle and medication, we were able to get five embryos! I cannot tell you how happy I am to have a chance at another pregnancy due to Dr. Sharara's diligence and care.

From the very first day I met Dr. Fady Sharara, I felt warmly welcomed. He greeted me with a big…read moresmile, made me feel comfortable, and most importantly, made me feel heard. Fertility is not an easy topic to talk about, and going through fertility treatment can be emotionally challenging. From the beginning, he made me feel that I was in safe hands. I will never forget when he told me, "I'll do everything I can to help you become parents." Those words meant so much to me and gave me so much hope and happiness. Dr. Sharara is truly a master in his field, and I feel incredibly lucky that he was my first fertility doctor. I have heard from other people who started their fertility journey with different doctors and eventually changed doctors because they didn't feel comfortable with the way they were treated or didn't feel sufficiently supported. I am very grateful that I never had that experience. From the beginning, I felt respected, listened to, and cared for. Of course, medical knowledge and treatment are extremely important, but I personally believe that the human side matters just as much during a fertility journey. When you feel safe, supported, and confident in your doctor and your team, it can make such a difference emotionally. Constant worry and overthinking can make an already difficult journey even harder. Having a doctor who gives you hope and makes you feel that you are in good hands is priceless. Throughout my IVF journey, Dr. Sharara was always professional and supportive. He gave me recommendations about lifestyle, supplements, and different ways to improve my chances. We went through our first IVF cycle, and because I had diminished ovarian reserve, my body did not produce many eggs. In the end, we were able to have one frozen embryo. We later talked about a second cycle, and Dr. Sharara adjusted my medications and treatment approach to give me better chances. But then something truly amazing happened--I became pregnant naturally! When I shared the news with Dr. Sharara, I could see how genuinely happy he was for me. His nurses and staff were also incredibly happy and supportive. They made me feel like I was not just another patient, but part of a family. What I remember most about my experience is not only the medications, supplements, or medical treatment. It is the kindness, reassurance, and emotional support I received from Dr. Sharara and his entire team. During fertility treatment, those things matter tremendously. I will always be grateful for the way Dr. Sharara treated me and for the hope and confidence he gave me throughout my journey. I feel very lucky that he was the doctor who guided me through the beginning of this journey. I highly recommend meeting Dr. Sharara if you are going through fertility treatment. His medical expertise is exceptional, but what makes the experience truly special is the way he treats his patients--with kindness, compassion, and genuine care.

Dr. Shahara is incredibly thorough, kind, and experienced, and he and the entire VCRM team genuinely care about their patients. They truly become like family. Infertility is such a personal journey, and having a team that knows you, checks in on you, and supports you every step of the way makes all the difference. Today, I graduated from VCRM 8 weeks pregnant, after two years of unexplained infertility. The VCRM team was there for us through every step, and I am so incredibly grateful they were part of our journey. We can't wait for them to meet our baby next spring!

Dr Payson is a brilliant and empathetic doctor who was genuinely invested in working through the nuances of our treatment plan at every step to maximize our chances of success, always available to answer questions and talk through data and research studies at our request, and paid close attention to our case throughout (including after we had graduated) to ensure we received excellent care. The nurses are kind, knowledgeable, and responsive - I had a lot of questions, especially after unsuccessful prior cycles, and Jen could not have been more helpful in talking through questions, getting us on the phone with the doctor as frequently as needed, as well as facilitating billing and the administrative side. Mark the phlebotomist is amazing (through many procedures, no one has been as dexterous in navigating my small veins), as are the rest of the nurses and staff. We would not have a baby without the excellent, compassionate, and results-oriented team at CCRM. We have many friends who have gone through IVF at other clinics, and we can confidently say this is the best fertility clinic and Dr Payson is the best fertility doctor in the DMV area.

Dr. James Kacedan is one of the best!! My review is long…read moreoverdue but I speak the truth when I say Dr. Kacedan, hands down is the BEST. He is a great listener, with a great bedside manner, his old office team (nurses and admin) were also the best - they were caring, always smiling, and warm - always jokes and laughs giving good energy in the office. This is no reflection on his new team but I honestly cannot speak about the current team bc I moved out of town and have not had the opportunity to engage with them. I was Dr. Kacedan's patient for 5+ yrs. The Bottom Line Up Front is He Cares!!! He has always been supportive, timely, willing to research, willing to address any questions, helpful when trying to determine the best path forward, and he has been accommodating to take a call even after I moved - A 5 ***** Star Doctor in my book!!!

As a healthcare provider with a full-time job AND a current mom AND someone who has been through this process, this was an absolute waste of my time. Half of the information was not even relevant to my plan of care. Their website and portal are disaster. I received different information from the nurses and the provider, which took significant effort to settle. I have no comments on their success rates, etc, but the Shady Grove set up, communication is an absolute shit show. This is my first clinic in the DMV area so I can't recommend where else to go, but I would certainly reconsider selecting this national chain. I believe someone else referred to it as a 'McDonalds'. At least go find yourself a Chipotle. Addendum: I *WILL SAY* everyone is very nice... Which, you know, is good.

If you are concerned about your age, weight, fertility, etc. do your self a favor and find someone else who will be kinder and less fat phobic. She's incredibly unprofessional and rude. I especially do not recommend seeing Dr. Hersh if you are struggling with infertility, have PCOS, or are overweight/obese. On my first visit for PCOS she painted the absolute worst case scenario for fertility, telling me I would likely need to spend up to $50,000 on IVF to conceive my first child if I don't lose weight. This was before reading any of my medical records or talking to me about my concerns. I'm all for realistic information and don't want things sugar coated, but Dr. Hersh was thoughtless and hurtful. Further, I'm 34 and she told me I needed to freeze my eggs asap or else my kid would be more likely to get a host of terrible genetic conditions. I got several other opinions and they were all much more fact based on risks and said at this point my husband and I didn't need to worry about freezing my eggs upon actual medical testing. They were so much more positive and kind. Dr. Hersh also did not give me any warning before putting the clamps in during my appointment. Also the nurse couldn't figure out how to draw my blood and it took many mess ups and a supervisor to get it out. Of course it sometimes take a few tries but this was not normal.
