I don't think there is a better place to ask the opinion of all you smart women!

I am going to do IVF the first of the year or sooner. I have exhausted the doctors in my area and I am considering going to a clinic that will involve a lot of travel. The last visit I had with my doctor I felt that he did not at all understand my situation, that he was negative, and that he was avoiding an important issue in my case: chronic, undiagnosed pelvic pain for 8 years. No doctor in my area has really tried to figure out exactly why I am not conceiving. They assume out the butt.

In all of your opinions: How important do you think it is to have a good relationship with your doctor??

Do you think it is worth the additional burden of traveling a few hours to see a different doctor?

I very much value your opinions and appreciate your feedback!
