Mickey S. Coffler, M.D., HRC Fertility (Huntington Reproductive Center)

I am currently a surrogate and my first time in this office was because they were my monitoring clinic. My original ivf clinic is in Newport Beach. Long story short my wife and I wanted to get our own journey started and I chose HRC Oceanside over my surrogacy clinic because not only are the prices more affordable but the girls in this office are amazing! They are always so helpful and are fun to be around! Ofelia makes it super easy to get appointments made and angel has literally not only made our experience delightful and memorable but she has also been so supportive through our journey so far. Dr Coffler is also the sweetest doctor. I’ve had my share of rude drs that have horrible bed side manners. My surro dr was rude and so was his staff. One of the reasons I chose hrc over them. Overall We are so glad we chose this office to help us grow our family!

I had posted a one star review for this place a few weeks ago about their front desk staff. Since then, I have been contacted by an office manager from their New Port Beach location and it looks like they have improved their customer service. I was asked by that manager to post another review although it's only been three weeks since my last review. But I commend Dr. Coffler for paying attention to customer complaints and taking actions to make improvements.

HRC Fertility was a gift to me and my husband! Dr. Coffler and Angel exceeded our expectations in every way.nnWe came here for a second opinion after a terrible experience with our first clinic. Dr. Coffler was patient and understanding. He explained why he was doing each treatment and how things could be modified after a cycle failed. He seemed confident and capable and he let us do treatment at our own pace. He also explained why different procedures were necessary prior to starting treatment, which was helpful to know. Dr. Coffler is compassionate too. I even scheduled a hysteroscopy procedure with him and went to the appointment, but was overwhelmed and cancelled it as I wasn't mentally ready. I felt so bad for wasting his time. Dr. Coffler called me that afternoon to check in, reassure me, and ask if he could help. So thoughtful! Another time I had emailed the nurse a question and Dr. Coffler called me and left a voicemail with a detailed answer regarding that question -- and this was on a Friday afternoon that he did that! Exceptional patient care.nnAngel is one of the most incredible nurses that I've met in my fertility journey and I've met many. Angel genuinely wants to help patients with whatever they need. She makes herself available. Email was such an easy way for us to communicate with Angel regarding our treatment, medications, appointments, etc. She responds quickly and she is so reliable! She even responded to us on a weekend once!nnI didn't see Dr. Coffler for monitoring appointments or bloodwork but I didn't mind that at all. I knew Angel would call me by the end of the day with instructions regarding next steps for treatment. I was also communicated with clearly and valued as a patient. This clinic is wonderful and made a world of difference in how we felt getting treatment for infertility. Thank you HRC!!

I went to Dr. Coffler for a second opinion because he was recommended by Fertility Center of California, Sperm Bank. But, before I went to him it was important that I research clinics that were LGBTQ friendly. I read and saw welcoming flags that this clinic would be a good place to possibly get advice. I was wrong! He is as homophobic as it gets. The whole conversation was unwelcoming, rude, and demeaning. Luckily, I have experienced this kind of discrimination many times in my lifetime and was able to keep my composure while I stared at a homophobic smug facial expression for the rest of our time together. Very sad to write a review such as this especially, when he was recommended by a solid and respectable company.nnThis is an updated post.nRight after I my post Dr. Coffler called me personally and offered a lengthy and compassionate apology. From the tone of his voice and the words that he used... I believe there was a misunderstanding. He stated that he would do whatever he could for my family towards bringing a new baby in our lives. I believe we all have bad days and are entitled to second chances.

i feel compelled to write a review as HRC is our 4th fertility clinic (3rd for IVF) - so i have a good sense of how a clinic is supposed to operate at this point. we came to HRC because of a recommendation from someone we know who also had been trying for years. not only were we so pleased with the gentile honesty of dr. Coffler, but we were beyond impressed with the organization of everyone’s job responsibilities. i feel like after reading the reviews below we are speaking of completely different clinics. we have loved having a specific person who does our billing, and love angel who is our coordinator, and love malali (sorry if I spelled this wrong) who does our ultrasounds, and love ysenia who doesn’t miss my veins ever for bloodwork! i feel like their process is super efficient! okay to clinical recommendations, we are still working on bringing a baby into our family and have high hopes! dr. Coffler is very cautious with stims and does not over stimulate! he does the retrievals in Newport Beach but honestly every time we went it was such a quick hour drive, and so worth it because the facility is gorgeous and so prepared. dr. Coffler answers all our questions thoroughly and encourages us to ask questions! we feel safe! and most importantly we feel encouraged and cared about! i hope to be able to add to this review soon that we are bringing life into this world! for now we are thankful for HRC and dr. Coffler!n- lauren & nick
