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.

Dr. Gondra is an outstanding IVF doctor!
My OB recommended I go see Dr. Gondra after my second miscarriage and I'm so glad she did! I was under the care of Dr. Gondra for a year. From the initial meeting we discussed my goals and she came up with a plan on how to proceed. We decided in my case it would be appropriate to start directly with IVF. My case was challenging, and Dr. Gondra was creative in her approach to have a successful outcome. She provides individualized care, is approachable and very knowledgeable. I'm happy to say I'm now 9 weeks pregnant thanks to Dr. Gondra and her whole team, who is just as outstanding! Thank you Dr. Gondra, Lisa, Jen, Daisy, and everyone else who took care of me!

Life-changing doctor
I walked into the office feeling scared and uncertain of the unknown. Dr. Gondra took the time to get to understand my health background and was able to pinpoint the overall problems with our infertility before any tests. Dr. Gondra is knowledgable, kind, and wants the best for her patients. Her staff - Lisa and Jennifer, are incredibly knowledgable as well, along with caring and so patient. We came to Dr. Gondra in November of 2021. We completed our procedures/treatments by March 2022. My husband and I are now expecting our little blessing due in early December of 2022. Words cannot express how grateful we are for Dr. Gondra and her team. If you are looking for a doctor who will help you get to the root of the problem and take the absolute best care of you, look no further!

I started seeing Dr. Gondra in November of 2019 after a year of trying to conceive. After doing some research, Gondra Center seemed like a fertility clinic where I would receive individualized care, and would get to see my doctor at every appointment. My initial thoughts could not have been more accurate, and my husband and I cannot more highly recommend Dr. Gondra, Daisey, Amanda, and the rest of the staff at Gondra Center. They are caring, supportive, and make dealing with infertility a lot easier. We did 3 months of medicated cycles, 3 IUIs, 2 rounds of IVF (to bank embryos), and 1 transfer, and Dr. Gondra was our biggest cheerleader through it all. We are thankful that we found her, and feel really blessed to finally be able to say that I am almost 9 weeks pregnant with our first child. If you are looking for a RE or a fertility clinic, you will not be disappointed with Dr. Gondra and Gondra Center. We recently graduated from the clinic, and it is such a bittersweet feeling. We a

I have lived in Canada and Germany prior to moving to the US and I would say that Dr. Gondra is one of the best doctors I have ever had. She is understanding, patient, flexible, accommodating, and really cares about her patients. Her staff are also very friendly, knowledgable, kind, and they always made time to answer my questions. As scientist myself, I truly appreciated Dr. Gondra's evidence based approach to medicine. I would whole heartedly recommend Dr. Gondra to any women.

Dr. Gondra and her team are nothing short of amazing. I had been on the journey of TTC with PCOS for a while before I started to see Dr. Gondra. I love how straight forward and direct she is with the process and game plan she sets. She is very thorough in her testing and truly knows what she is talking about. I was finally able to conceive after a year of testing and trying different methods. I can't write this review without mentioning how wonderful and personable her team is, from the ladies in the front to the MAs in the back. Shelly (Michele) and Victoria are great assets to the team. They were always on top of lab work orders, insurance issues, scheduling and rescheduling my appointments, as well as answering any questions I may have randomly. They were always very patient. I can go on and on but by now you should get the point. Just go ahead and book with her

This is one of the worst doctors offices I’ve ever been to. I came here for a consultation for multiple miscarriages. She told me to get testing done next week, well a few days after my consultation I found out I was pregnant. Called them and went in for an ultrasound. I was 6 weeks and she told me the baby was too small and probably wouldn’t survive and to not be excited about anything yet. She spent not even a minute with the ultrasound. She gave me a cup to put the baby in if I miscarried, told me to refrigerate the cup and then bring it to her....... I’m not going to fish something out of the toilet and then put it in my fridge. That made me sick that she would even tell me that after 2 miscarriages. Well I felt like she was wrong so the next day I went somewhere else for a second opinion. They told me the baby was 3x the size she told me it was and it had a very strong heartbeat that most likely developed a few days prior..... this place also never calls back if you have questions

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!! Stay away from this office not only the staff is incredibly insensitive! But the doctor is incredibly rude! Somebody batch one of my biopsy yeah! A biopsy the doctor blamed the lab and the lab blamed the delivery guy! Are you kidding me!!!! I had to do the biopsy all over again and I did! finally got the results, she wanted me to do one more biopsy to test for endometriosis! I’m sure to make up money for the biopsy they ruined! She told us this is a new test that I just found out about after we did your second biopsy!! Really? And you are a doctor of infertility? And didn’t think about doing endometriosis test the first or second time but now that is the third time you do??? Ummm Please stay away from this horrible place!!! I never wish anything bad for anyone or A place but when you trust someone to grow your family is a big deal and when people are doing this just for the money is really sad and they should never be in business!

Words cannot express how thankful I am to have found Gondra Center. After my period disappeared last April, I had no idea what was going on with my body. My husband and I first saw Dr. Gondra in August, where she was able to quickly figure out that I have PCOS. I had so much faith in how confident she was that she could help us get pregnant. Both Dr. Gondra and Dr. Collins were so committed to figuring out a plan for us, and if one thing didn't work they always had a solution for what to try next. After 4 months of working with the Gondra Center, we were thrilled to find out we were pregnant on Christmas Eve...and to later find out we are expecting twins! We owe it all to the Gondra Center!

Dr. Gondra and her staff are well informed and take time to educate their patients in a calm and inviting environment. My appointment did not feel rushed in any way, but rather like an entire Q&A session where concerns were thoroughly addressed. I left with a clear plan and clear instructions with a follow-up that was determined to move the process along instead of just seeing where we were at. Seeing the Gondra center be proactive in their plans for me and my health was key in selecting them as a reliable specialist.

I highly recommend Dr. Gondra and her staff to anyone and everyone! My ob/gyn referred me to her after 2 miscarriages and I’m so glad she did. Their office staff is absolutely amazing. They are knowledgeable, professional and very friendly. I appreciate them being so sympathetic to what my husband and I have been through. At my first visit Dr. Gondra told me “we’ll get you a baby” and I’m now eight weeks and 2 days with only positive results. She ran a serious of tests to determine what may have caused my prior miscarriages and jumped right into action when I told her I was pregnant. I’ve never been so happy and so grateful. My husband and I appreciate Dr. Gondra and her team so very much. I can’t wait to see the continued growth of our little nugget thanks to her!

She helped me more in our hour visit the GYNs have helped in the past 2 years. When I came to her I was hopeless and just searching for answers, she has restore my hope in myself AND my journey.
