I'm in St. Louis and cycled with Dr. Pearlstone at The Fertility Center at MoBap. LOVED Dr. P, he is the best! We tried Dr. Silber at St. Lukes and Dr. Ahlering at SIRM but didn't care for either one of them. You are welcome to PM me if you'd like any info about my experiences.

I'm in St. Louis and used Dr. Silber. Wish I could give him a rave review but even though we are expecting our little boy any day I really can't say much about him or his office staff.

Open to sharing my experience or answering questions. Just PM me.

Good Luck

Hi fellow Missouri girls! I'm from southeast missouri myself!
I am using Dr. Wilbois at the Infertility and IVF Center @ MoBap. He and his staff have been really wonderful to us so far. I haven't heard much about Dr. Silber, except what i saw on Discovery Health channel a few times. I'm glad he worked out for you!
