Like many others, their journey to starting a family did not come easy. Their love story began later in their reproductive lives, and being a same-sex couple, they knew they needed a good fertility doctor to help them. Not knowing much about the process, they contacted a fertility doctor, but they always felt in the dark. And then a friend recommended Dr. John Frattarelli to them. Dr. Frattarelli always answered their questions and guided them through all of their IUIs and multiple rounds of IVF & embryo transfers over several years. After having one miscarriage and a ton of heartbreak, the couple decided to stop treatment. A few months later, they received an invoice from their cryobank, reminding them that they had one vial left in storage. They decided to give it one last try. They implanted a healthy embryo in December of 2023 and gave birth to Baby Nora in August of 2024. Nora was born happy and healthy, she is just absolute perfection.
“Our family is now complete and we are so grateful to Dr. Frattarelli and his staff for their compassionate approach toward our care during this long and difficult journey.”
