Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

It worked!
Dr. Couvaras was kind and listened. All of his tactics helped us conceive after many miscarriages. I am forever grateful.

Dr Couvaras is amazing and so is P.A. Lisa. They always took time with me in my appointments, but most appointments are follow ups with sonographers. My only complaint with the office staff is that I had to constantly repeat myself, which is tiresome and frustrating on top of the IVF process. The lack of patient notes kept and follow ups by trained medical staff is lacking (most communication is via sonographers). They could use a nurse for follow ups and charting. Despite the constant disconnect, I diligently followed all flow sheets and am now pregnant! Thank you

Dr. Couvaras and team are very professional and thinks outside the box. He is one of the most intelligent and knowledgeable people we have ever met. He is way ahead of any other specialist in his field that we have dealt with and is always current on up to date technologies and practices. Dr. Couvaras looks at every patient individually and treats their specific needs opposed to standardized treatment. We would not have our miracle daughter if it weren't for Dr. Couvaras. We truly THANK him and his IVF Phoenix team from the bottom of our heart. When all else fails and you have little hope, go see Dr. Couvaras and his team, if anyone can assist you in your reproductive needs, it will be them.

We saw 2 fertility specialists during the past 3 years while experiencing 3 miscarriages and an ectopic pregnancy. Neither doctor had answers about what was preventing a full-term pregnancy. Dr. C. immediately identified how my immune system was contributing to the loses. We followed his protocol for 6 months and are excited to announce the anticipated arrival of our baby in September of 2017. All is going well. We greatly appreciate the doctor's focus and attention on our specific needs.

I had a 6cm fibroid that he consistently ignored and said wouldn't cause infertility. He refused to remove it but instead had me and my husband do numerous, expensive treatments that never worked and that I am guessing he knew wouldn't work but would make him money since we wanted a child. I finally got a second opinion on the fibroid at the Mayo Clinic. Go figure, the first month post-surgery that we were allowed to try to conceive again, I got pregnant all on my own with no special treatments.
