Why Patients Choose Dr. Elan Simckes
You already know he's not your typical fertility doctor
Families rely on Dr. Simckes for expert guidance and fertility care that truly listens. Here’s what one patient had to say about their experience:
“Dr. Simckes and his team are absolutely wonderful. We went in for a consultation on November 4th to learn more about the INVOcell device, and from the very beginning, Dr. Simckes made us feel completely at ease. He explained everything in clear, layman’s terms and even cracked a few jokes along the way — which my husband and I truly appreciated. We felt comfortable, heard, and genuinely cared for.
I’ve been to other fertility clinics where I left feeling like just another number, but that was never the case at Fertility Partnership. During our consultation, I happened to be ovulating, and Dr. Simckes told me that if I were to become pregnant naturally, he would care for me through 8 weeks just as he would an IVF patient. And that is exactly what happened.
After 10 years of infertility, I became pregnant naturally. Dr. Simckes immediately ordered my bloodwork, and we received the news on Christmas Eve — a moment we will never forget.
I truly cannot say enough good things about Dr. Simckes. He is one of those rare doctors who genuinely cares about his patients — not just the procedures or the financial side of fertility treatment. We are beyond grateful.” – Rachel, Google
