La Ivf Clinic's Online Review Report Card

This review is very overdue, in all honesty I thought I posted one but it looks like it was just not submitted or something happened to it! I was a patient of Dr. Bayrak from 2023-2024. I had gone to his office based on the many positive reviews, and decided after 3 years of infertility to give IVF a chance. He was very patient with answering all of my questions, and gave me a clear outline of what to expect. We did the process from start to finish, including the hormones, egg retrieval and implantation. We were so lucky to have been successful at our first attempt, and our beautiful daughter was born! She is now a little over a year old. We still have one more egg that's still in storage which we plan to implant in the next year or so. Very grateful for Dr. Bayrak and his team, very professional, compassionate team!

The decision to do IVF was not one we ever thought we would have to make but I am so glad that LAIVF was there for our journey. This journey was mentally and physically challenging but Dr. Bayrak and Marianna were so wonderful. My husband and I felt very well taken care of. They never rushed us and answered all of our questions. I cannot say good enough things about the care we received. Vanessa in the office always greeted us with a friendly smile and was also so kind. We did experience some billing issues but even then they always made sure to answer my many questions and we were able to resolve it. We highly recommend LAIVF!

As reviews for services go, I don't think one can be more meaningful than one for a life. Honestly, if your reading this, I wish you luck on this very difficult process. No matter what anyone says, the IVF journey is different for everyone. Expect an emotional roller coaster. We were very fortunate to be successful on our first attempt with Dr. Bayrak. But we did have two unsuccessful experiences with two other clinics before seeing Dr. Bayrak. We also had two further unsuccessful attempts with him, but are fortunate to be successful in the most recent attempt. I would say that compared to others, I think he's seen more varying cases and can advise better based on that fact alone. I would also say that we as a couple were pretty typical, if not younger than most people using IVF. We noticed with other doctors that they seemed to cater to a certain demographics or income levels. I think Dr. Bayrak and his team were very welcoming to our needs. I can't say enough about him and his staff taking enough time to discuss with us even the most basic of things in room knowing there are other patients waiting. But you have to be realistic, and this is simple chemistry and biology that is being manipulated to form a life, and that one specific doctor may not do something vastly different than another to get a result. Everyone has to go through some pain to get the result. But, in the end the result is absolutely, positively, worth it.

Excellent clinic and Doctor. Dr. Bayrak is a very professional and meticulous person. Loved working with him.

Dr. Bayrak and his team are amazing. He is calm and patient and explains everything in detail. He never rushes through questions, and spends as much time as you need talking through things until you're comfortable. He instills hope while remaining grounded in facts and data. He communicates important information with patients directly, and his team is always available to help. Dr Bayrak has a "we won't give up" attitude that really helps during a stressful and difficult process. LA IVF is the best. (Typing from 8 weeks pregnant thanks to Dr. Bayrak!)

I loved working with Dr. Bayrak. He followed my treatment very closely and almost retrieved 17 eggs even though I had a slow response to medicines. Without his follow through no other doctor could have retrieved that many in that sort of a cycle. I highly recommend Dr Bayrak if you are looking for an excellent IVF or egg freezing doctor. His team was also great during the retrieval process. Thank you!

Pushy doctor, poor staff, lots of hidden costs. Upon arrival, we were immediately escorted to take blood test even before insurance was checked, ended up paying the tests out of pocket. Then were later billed a consultation fee even though they informed us there is no consultation fee. Doctor pushed us to do IVF and started prescribing medication right away, very typical sales tactics.

Stay away at all costs. This place does not care about anything, except how much money they can suck out of you. They tell you if you pay up front, everything is included within the IVF procedure and they won't even bill your insurance, guess what? WE PAID IN FULL up front, they STILL billed our insurance throughout and they keep furnishing new bills insurance didn't cover. SICKENING. You are nothing more than a dollar sign to them. The cherry on top is I got a notice from a collection agency 3 years later, for a visit that the doctor had requested, in the course of IVF. These people are the most money hungry billing- driven people in the world. Did I mention that the pharmacy they refer you to is owned by the physician? ABSOLUTE WORST EXPERIENCE! Feel free to contact me if you had a similar experience, I will update this post once I dispute the debt within the terms of my contract. I would like to speak to similarly situated people who had a horrible experience with deceptive billing practices and excessive billing.

I did not have a great initial phone call. I have a complicated pregnancy history and carried one child to term and they made it seem like a surrogate was the best option. Luckily I went back to my previous doctor out of state and was able to conceive and carry, without IVF

The 1st time we went to meet with Dr Aykut Bayrak me and my wife to talk about the possibilities because we were having a infertility problem and after the 1st meeting he was very convincing to that if we paid the money he asked around $25.000 for everything would have start the testings on both me and my wife which he promised will be a solution to a problem and after we gave him the money my wife still couldn't get pregnant but he offer to expand the testing and this time if we paid another round of $25.000 which the total we paid to this crook $50k he would save 3 embryos to freeze as back up plan and he convinced us to pay him again for same testing we did the 1st time and more blood testing and when my wife was not able to get pregnant again we tried to use the embryos that supposedly are good so she can get pregnant and after all attempts turn out to be a failure from he's work we asked how come the embryos you saved do not make it and he answer was without compassion cold dry sorry it happens ( after he stole from us $50k) The bottom line is ,this crooked dr is blood thirsty and he's license should be revoked because he's praying for desperate couples who have difficulty having kids and willing to pay him the last penny for infertility. The whole process with this crook thief was a nightmare from financial point of view and he's careless practices and deliver what he promised but when we couldn't pay him more money he just said I am sorry I can't help you guys anymore unless you come up with more cash. This Dr is so evil he and he's staff Sheri are all about the money and don't care about their patients. We were devastated from the malpractice of the Dr. Bayrak .Stay away from this monster and shop around before you fall on the wrong hands as we did and we lost $50k Best of luck
