Wishing On A Star :)

 

 

Lilyoneday:

Hi WOAS! nice to 'see' you again too. when and where are you cycling?? x

I was soooo going for Cyprus this year, when I was on the Cyprus thread last year watching in awe of all the brave ladies keeping everyone updated, I was just thinking, wow that will be me next year!! But then all my lovely acquintences started returning a bit down hearted saying they did'nt think it will work, that was even before the 2ww and then the influx of heart breaking BFN's came. So I decided to steer away from Cyprus (personal choice) and research a clinic properly and stick with it. Then desire4magnolia filled in ALL the gaps for me and that sealed my decision. Have you seen his thread! He is just wonderful to have done such a detailed thread, they got a BFP and I suppose they wanted to give something back!! I'm concerned about how the troubles have spread to Libya now though.

It could very well get worse and cause havock in Jordan Sad. We wanted to go in April, but that will be too soon for me to get all bloods and cosult organised, so we are now "hoping" June.  I always do a charity 10k run in June in Dublin city, looks like I wont be this year Happy Giggle!

First of all I would like to say we have been to Dogus twice now the first time it failed due to my partner having a infection, the second time we have had twin Girls please see my Facebook  Greg Langley (Halifax) the treatment at the clinic is second to none, and Julie, Lyndsey and the Docs are great, you have to remember why you are there, is to try for babies, something you cannot do on your own as you would not go. It does not work all the time, as it did not with us the first time, you are not there for a holiday or first class transfers to the clinic and back, and sometimes it can be rushed, But to say it is bad is just out of order, They want you to get pregnant as much as you do, and do you think they are not as disappointed as you are. But the hard facts is our bodies are very complex and what works for some does not for others. So you can go from clinic to clinic and bad mouth the ones that you think failed you, But not Dogus they are professional and probably the best certainly in Europe. So don’t you think if you went back they would try even harder, for you. We met a couple who had been nine times on the 10th it worked that’s commitment, and not once did they have a bad word to say. So the person who put that comment on this site, you may need to ask yourself why you are doing this, and if its for a child then go back try again and maybe you will write something positive.

 MicroSort unfortunately did NOT receive FDA approval and is not available in the US now.

If you click the surveys link at the top of the page, there are a number of surveys from women who have cycled at various clinics and there may be some who have used that clinic and written comments about it.

 DONT GO TO DOGUS!!  I know about 12 women who were there with me and who know other women who were there with them . none got a positive with PGD.

- they just dont have experience in pgd. they have some BFP with normal IVF or DE but not with pgd.

They just offer it because they can make money with it . PGD can weaken the embryo so it cannot implant anymore.

Never forget it is a poor island not technically advanced. why should they be experts in pgd like the US???

With DE you have excellent embryos but no implantation. thus it is the pgd. same with north cyprus.

 I went last year, the staff were unprofessional and rude. (I have my story on here somewhere posted when we got back) I was even given an unplanned general anaesthetic without my consent, without even being weighed first - I honestly thought I was not going to wake up. The place is a rip-off and a joke.

I've not been on here for a while but just saw this thread and felt compelled to reply. DOGUS is a DUMP! Please do not go there!! My story is on here somewhere and I had a horrible experience. It's like a 3rd world hospital!! Greg, I'm glad it worked for you. I've since been to Genesis in the south twice and now realise what ivf with pgd abroad is meant to be like! Genesis just showed me how ripped off I was at Dogus. After 2 attempts at Genesis I am still returning there because, yes Greg, I realise I want a baby and know all about how hard it it. I just won't return to Dogus because I value my life!! Never again!
3 gorgeous boys, hoping for a girl. x

 I agree with Molly - and I do not think that this man had pgd at dogus.

just found this at fertiltiy friends uk:

 

Hi all

Some of you may remember me as I had treatment in summer at Dogus. I have not been on the site since then but not because of my BFN.

Whilst in Cyprus I found out that Dogus admins were reading our posts and may take action against anything they consider derogatory. It was a couple of days before ET when I posted an update on how we were getting on. The usual chat about weather and meeting up with others, and some communication problems with admins. I was shocked to receive a personal email within 48 hours from a clinic admin saying that I was calling the clinic into disrepute by posting on an internet forum. They had time to read forums but not to reply to some information requested regarding treatment.

I felt bullied and as it was already a stressful time, as IVF always is, I decided to remove the post. I thought my comments were honest and true and pretty mild given what had happened. I felt very vulnerable going into the clinic but the situation was never mentioned to me which I was relieved about but also felt was strange and two faced.

I was and still am shocked to know that clinic staff are actively reading posts, identifying and taking action with patients. Thinking about it, I presume Dogus staff are using the spreadsheet details, signatures and details within posts to identify individuals.  I find this behaviour unethical and unprofessional as I consider this forum to be a personal place for individuals to share experiences, learn from each other and support each other.

I have finally found the courage to share my experience with you as I want to make others aware. Everyone needs to consider how anonymous your posts and thoughts actually are.

At the time, many users contacted me by private message asking why I'd removed my post and I explained why. Then they shared their own similar stories describing similar emails and encounters with admins at the clinic. I wish I had known about how the clinic operated and some of their behaviours before going out for treament.

To me the purpose of this forum is for us to share our real experiences good and bad. We all want a precious baby and are just trying to help each other spend our time, money and effort wisely. I hope you all take my comments on board in the spirit they are intended.

As always, love and good wishes to all x

Hi everyone, just wanted to post on my recent experience of visiting dogus as before we went we read this forum to help us to make our decision. I'm still on my 2ww and wanted to post before i knew the outcome of my treatment so not to make my opinion seem biased. Before and During our treatment we can honestly say we did not experience ONE problem, the quality of communication and treatment was exceptional, emails were always replied to very quickly. The hotel wasn't fancy but provided everything we could want and the staff really took a pride in their work and couldn't do enough to help.

best wishes and babydust to everyone xxx

Lol I'm MORE than happy for anyone to PM me for my phone number or facebook, I am a real person and i'm sure that any of the moderators will be able to confirm so. I haven't come on here and said why I believe some of the negative posts are fabricated, i've just posted on my possitive experience!
