I contacted Aspire after having a bad experience with clinics in my home state. Aspire is a 4 hour drive from me, but I was willing to make the trek. I had a video consult with Dr. Rivas and she seemed great--my review is not directed at her, since I never even got to meet her.
She suggested I come in for tests/procedures that had to be done on a certain day in my cycle. No problem, we have been on this journey 6 years, and everything she suggested seemed great. I was told to call at the appropriate time. I did, but unfortunately that was during the blizzard in Jan 2026, so we decided to wait till this month. I went back and forth on the app with someone about which tests were actually being done, and while they were kind, they seemed incredibly confused and couldn't answer a simple question. I thought I can just clarify everything the next month. Well, its now "next month" and I called the office and spoke with Charlie (he's not horrible, but he's also not the nicest person I have interacted with. I wish clinics would have nicer people on the phones. But I digress...) Charlie told me to message my team on the app. He also informed me that there were still forms I had to sign. I was flabbergasted that no one had gotten this done in the past month. I messaged the team letting them know that what was going on and no one got back to me. Keep in mind, these tests can only be performed 3 days out of the month, so timing is extremely important.
I first messaged them at 3pm and again at 5pm with no reply. It is not the next day at 11:30 and still nothing. I can only have the procedures done tomorrow, otherwise we have to wait ANOTHER month.
I wasted an entire month on this clinic, and now I have to start over somewhere else.
I just dont understand why they feel its okay to treat patients like this. It might just be a regular day at work for them, but to fertility patients its our entire lives, our entire futures, that these doctors hold in their hands. And they don't seem to care.
I am deeply disappointed, heartbroken, and angry. There is no excuse for treating patients like this. I do NOT recommend this place.
(Just as I posted this, they got back to me, and their reply does NOT help them. I was told last month my tests had to be done on cycle day 2-4, and today they are telling me its 4-11. They have also, indeed, dropped the ball on scheduling the procedure and going through insurance, etc. Again, Deeply deeply disappointed and I am so glad I never let these fools near me.)
