My wife had two egg extraction surgeries at this medical office. Only one embryo good for transfer. She was not pregnant. The doctor, coordinator, embryologist all spoke to her about donor eggs. This medical office cared about selling their donor eggs, not helping patients become parents. When my wife just received her pregnancy test, embryologist Yvonne asked her to consider external Asian egg donors. It was a nightmare. She had to visit a therapist for 3 months to heal from her experience before seeking fertility treatment at another medical office. She got three good embryos with only one egg extraction at the new office. Don’t lose precious time in a donor egg factory, go elsewhere.
My only regret with my IVF/fertility journey was not finding Dr. Kalan and the LARC team earlier. This is one of the best places for not just fertility care, but medical care in general, in LA. We started exploring our fertility options with another practice (big brand name). Something just didn't feel quite right and so I decided to look at second options. LARC was quite literally the closest office to my house, so I thought to give it a shot. Best decision I've ever made. I knew it was right when he took nearly A FULL HOUR in our initial intake call together. His thorough care did not stop there. Dr. Kalan and his team are with you every.step.of.the.way. He is caring and compassionate while extremely informative and educative. He is honest and kind, while also straightforward and professional with his recommendations. He shows up to literally every single appointment and check in. Best part - he is a real human being - and a pretty funny one at that. We so enjoyed getting to know Dr. Kalan over about 6 months of treatment together. We did two rounds of IUI which did not work, but our first IVF/ET was a success. Never once did I feel discouraged or intimidated by the journey with him. In fact, I now am trying to change the conversation away from "I hope you never have to go through IVF" to "It's incredibly empowering and an amazing option". That really is how we feel after working with LARC. I couldn't finish this review without shouting out his AMAZING support staff. Gabby, Ashley, Jen and the whole front desk team are nothing short of amazing. Never rushed, always thorough, always available to answer your questions. If Dr. Kalan is the brains behind your treatment plan and outcomes, they are the heart and soul. Go here.
EXTREMELY Unorganized and LOVE to bill you over and over. Make up prices as they go along.
