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. Turek found what no one else could
For over 10 years, my husband and I battled male-factor infertility, repeatedly told our chances of having biological children were zero. From the first consultation, Dr. Turek listened with compassion and gave us something new: a clear plan and real hope. He didn’t make empty promises, but his confidence and expertise changed everything. After a decade of “there’s nothing there,” he proved otherwise. His techniques led to a breakthrough we never thought possible. Thanks to Dr. Turek, we’re now expecting our first child. He didn’t just help us medically; he gave us hope. Thanks will never be enough.

3 beautiful children
Dr Turek performed FNA mapping to locate sperm then later retrieved sperm. My wife and I used the sperm via IVF to have 3 successful pregnancies. With out him and his expertise sperm retrieved wouldhave been more invasive.

Excellent results and experience
The Dr Turek did two surgeries on me. Both went great. The experience before and after the surgeries was smooth. I highly recommend it, especially after hearing horror stories from friends who tried to save money by going to less experienced surgeons.

Tese/tesa
20/10 recommend Dr. Turek. After a failed procedure elsewhere & being told there was zero hope, we got a second opinion and were told the same thing. We then sought out Dr. Turek. He was confident from the initial consultation that it would be no problem to find sperm & he was right. If you've ever been told there is no hope to have a biological child due to male factor, I highly suggest you speak with Dr. Turek. He is very friendly & knowledgeable, you can tell he truly cares.

We have been married for years, my husband was diagnosed of azoospermia the news really shattered us, we tried everything within our power in our country Nigeria but every effort was abortive, but we never lost hope. We moved to the US and the doctor we consulted never believed we could be diagnosed of such a condition so he went straight for Biopsy of the Testis thinking some sperms would be found but unfortunately nothing was found so he said there was nothing he could do meaning NO HOPE for us to be parents. Anyway we still believe something has to be done because my husband seems so Okay sexually so why is he then diagnosed with Azoospermia??? We kept asking why us??? So we came across website of Dr Turek then the beautiful testimonies of people in the same situation with us then rekindled our hope that hopefully God will use him to help us. We contacted him, the first consultation actually resurrected our hope in becoming parents so he said FNA MAPPING would be done to see areas w

I received Dr Turek’s care for a microMESA/TESE procedure. At my first visit, Dr Turek was able to diagnose in less than 10 min the cause of my azoospermia with a simple external physical exam - a prior urologist completely missed the issue with an ultrasound and had misdiagnosed and recommended a biopsy which may have yielded no results with some major risks. I was able to schedule a microMESA/TESE surgery with Dr Turek within weeks. The procedure went as smoothly as it could have. Great care from the nurses at Pacific Fertility Center (where the surgery took place) (Leila and Rita) to the op room (fun anesthesiologist) to post op. We were able to retrieve enough sperm for 12 IVF cycles! The recovery was swift and pretty much painless. I only used pain meds for 24 hours. Was back to walking in 2 days and back to running in 6 days. 8 days post surgery, I have no tenderness, everything is heeled properly. As a very active person training for ultramarathons, this is a fantastic outcome.

I had a vasectomy there. The price is higher than average but the service is exceptional. And if someone operates me down there, I want the best. Every step was done perfectly: - I was always warmly welcomed at the office - The doctor's explanations were clear and complete. Discussing the risks, the different options. - I had problems with my bank for the payment and they were very patient with me. - The day of the operation, they again explained everything clearly. - I did not choose to take valium, so I only had local anesthesia (they had a curtain so I could not see what was going on). I just watched netflix and only experienced minor discomfort. I did not even get to finish my episode. - They staid with me after the operation to make sure I was ok. - My pain was very light the day after (I just took a normal painkiller the first day), and almost nothing the days after. - They checked the week after that I was

Dr. Turek and his team were fantastic during the entire process. I was getting nervous as the date for my procedure got closer, and they were more than happy to answer any questions I had to put me at ease. The procedure went flawlessly and better than I was expecting. I would highly recommend Dr. Turek to anyone.

Doctor Turek performed a vasectomy on me last week. Very professional, felt little to no pain during and after the procedure. Courteous and knowledgable front desk staff and medical assistants. Pricey but worth every penny and you can't compromise on something as important as this. This doctor is Yale and Stanford educated and was brought in to speak at Google, among many other accomplishments. I recommend using this company if you can afford it. I am very happy and satisfied with my procedure.
