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.

Thanks Dr. T I have my son.
Dr. T was my second fertility doctor. Before her I had two unsuccessful IVF circles with FCI. With Dr. T I spend 6 months to find and treat my problem and got pregnant with first try. Good luck to everyone!

Gave me incorrect information
My experience with her is that her words cannot be trusted. She gave me unrealistically optimistic confident prognosis for success and two babies with my 22 39 year old frozen eggs. Before that I had done my own research on the internet and what I found out is that there is no guarantee for any success and the chances of two babies are very low. Dr. T turned out completely wrong and the internet turned out to be correct. She discounted everything I told her I found on the internet as incorrect and argued she was right because egg freezing works because it works with egg donors - a completely irrelevant argument as egg donors are in their 20s while I was 39 and my eggs sat in storage for four years before they were used. Also she argued that what happened with my end results never happens. When I looked online for other women's experience with their frozen eggs the very first feedback I read was from a woman who had had exactly the same experience and results as mine.

She has good bedside manner and is knowledgeable. I did five cycles with her; when we got one viable embryo and it didn't work out; she didn't even call ...to say anything. i got a one line email in the portal. Perhaps a message about how sorry she was after so much work would have been appropriate after spending SO MUCH TIME AND MONEY...? Just seems obvious. Then, when I went back to do a check point locally since I found a doctor with a money back guarantee that actually cares about his patients, they wanted to charge me an astronomical rate (and did not tell me this rate when I booked the appointment); I had to waste time and escalate wasting more time to get it down to a rate still too high. I will NEVER go back. I do not recommend.

Dr. T and her team are amazing. Appointments can be late but I never felt rushed and I truly felt cared for. After an absolutely horrible experience at Northwestern for our first IVF round, Dr. T ensured she carefully assessed the previous experience and data. My husband and I have a very challenging scenario and only had 1 viable embryo after 3 IVF rounds at RMI and Dr. T got me pregnant! She gets straight to the point and tells it like it is. One of the things I love about her.

4 IVF rounds with nothing to show for it. If you have good insurance, stay away - they will milk you for all you’re worth. We just went in circles with barely any changes in protocols. Almost $25K in insurance and $5K out of pocket, with zero viable embryo. It’s an IVF farm. I only saw Dr. Trukhacheva once in between cycles. The nurses are rude, office is always full of patients they want to get in and out within minutes. Go somewhere where they’ll treat you like a person, not a bank.

Elena, is the second IVF doctor I have gone to, and I had a great experience there. I would definitely recommend her. Also, her office staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. All aspects of my treatment were explained fully to me and everything went smooth.

Dr. Trukhacheva is personable and has a good bedside manner, which makes the road to achieving pregnancy smooth & comfortable. Her many years of experience in this field are reflected through her knowledge & expertise. You will never get anything less than a completely honest & professional opinion about your situation and you can trust that you are in the best hands possible. I am so grateful to my ob/gyn for recommending her and my experience under her care has been pleasant and enjoyable.

Dr T was open and honest about the IVF cycle . But in the process I met her just once. IVF cycle failed , but that's not the reason for the 1 star . She never called back for a review or gave us a feed back on quality of the embryo . There was not even a call from Dr T or the clinic since the egg retrieval ( except the call from lab to say that no embryos are left to freeze) . Very disappointed in how they treat the patients .

Recommend an unnecessary procedure that if I had followed probably would have left me infertile. Told me I miscarried when we saw a heartbeat a week later
