Question Seeking recommendation for NYC reproductive endocrinologist and/or center

Could desperately use some advise! My OB/GYN has recommended I see a RE regarding infertility as I have been trying to conceive for a year, am 37 yrs old and have been battling some type of immune dysfunction (connective tissue disorder). My OB/GYN recommends a center dedicated to infertility given centers have a vast number of resources available to them. Given the complexity of my situation, can anyone recommend a really good RE (reproductive endocrinologist) who also possesses good bed side manner? It's so hard to make head or tails of the options and doctors available. If a 'best' doctor doesn't have availablity for 3 months while a 'good' doctor has availability sooner, should I wait for the 'best' doctor? Timing seems to be important given my age but I don't want to make a mistake. Also, infertility centers are group practices and I worry that if there is a 'best' doctor at one of these centers but the other doctors in the practice are unkwown (and who will be doing procedures based on schedule), do I take a chance and go to that center? I assume that if their success rates are good, that that should provide me with some assurance of the practice in general but I can't help but worry. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. This is all new to me.

I don't have a lot of time to write but..

My RE has a wonderful bedside manner and is really aggressive in treating IF. He is Dr. Grazi in brooklyn, assosciated with mamodies medical center. I don't think I can post his phone number but it's Genesis Fertility center.

Re: Seeking recommendation for NYC reproductive endocrinologist and/or center

I have a friend who went to one in Westchester and she did 4 IVF's and nothing she then went to Cornell and now has a beautiful 1 year old boy. I am not sure of the doctors name and I don't think we are allowed to post the names of the doctor or the clinic but we will see if they delete it...She said the main doctor has terrible bedside manner but he tells it like it is and he over sees everything being done, he does'nt do much of the actual stuff himself but he is sappose to be one of the best. I am not sure what the waiting time is but I would check it out. He is the same doctor that did the IVF for Ciline Dion and I know 2 other people that went to him.

Good luck
