After many sad years battling with infertility, numerous doctors and procedures that just did not work for me, I was so happy to have found Dr. Gill and his wonderful staff. I remember how my husband and I were going to give up trying to have a baby; then someone told us to go see Dr. Gill. A week later we made our appointment. From the very first time meeting with Dr. Gill he made us feel like no other doctor had. By the end of our appointment we were so optimistic and confident that if anyone was going to help us have a baby, it would be him. It was hard at times because many of the infertility treatments did not work for me, and Dr. Gill had to create a treatment plan that my body would accept. But through it all the staff was amazing and so understanding and Dr. Gill was so patient, caring and always encouraged me that I had to hang in there even when I wanted to give up. I'm glad we made the choice to go see Dr. Gill, because my husband and I are now proud parents of a beautiful baby girl and we owe it all to him and his caring staff.
