We were able to find most of this covered in the generic CVS Men's daily vitamin, but I'm sure there are better options!

He Skyped with us directly. I don’t know if he communicates directly with other providers other than receiving direct reports of tests. My wife’s GYN has been very helpful and has performed many of the tests Dr. David ordered without any issue. The tests he orders we were able to find physicians to perform them with us (fertility clinic for me to retest sperm counts, Radiologist for my wife’s Fallopian tube test, her GYN for her neoplasm and special antibody blood test, and a regular lab for the other blood tests).

He is located in NY. He was part of the original group years ago that created the IVF process but he left about 15/20 years ago as he was dissatisfied with the practice’s push towards IVF only instead of trying to discover the underlying causes of a couple’s infertility. He has a book out that my wife found very helpful and then she contacted his office.

The book is: Making Babies

His office contact is http://www.drsamidavidmd.com/contact

If you do meet with him, he does require you to send him your prior test results and he will go over them with you. He has a very prescribed program. I suggest starting with the book.

Our fingers are crossed. Now that we have things lining up, we’re hopeful we can get pregnant soon. If it doesn’t happen in the next two cycles, we will need to stimulate my wife’s follicles with a trigger shot, but at least we know what we do now! The unknown is becoming known!
