How likely are you to recommend Dr. Tatem?
Prior to Dr. Tatem, I was seeing a different Dr. for infertility treatment of Azoospermia, but I felt like I was being put on a generic infertility track (3mo. Clomid > mTESE). So, I decided to get a second opinion from Dr. Tatem, as the mTESE was not an option for me (I have one testicle and it would be too invasive, possibly need hormone treatments for life). Dr. Tatem took a very personalized approach. He studied my charts, and evaluated my physical characteristics from a medical perspective, and concluded that I had a good chance at finding sperm because I likely had a blockage, not a production issue. For months, I thought I would never be able to have kids. Dr. Tatem changed all of that within 2 weeks. They scheduled me in quickly, and I proceeded with his recommended surgery, Testicular Biopsy for Sperm Retrieval. When I woke up received the best news of my life. He was right: they found plenty of sperm for IVF. Without Dr. Tatem I would not be able to start a family.
