Dr Walid, Heather & the rest of the staff were awesome to work with. My husband & I, tried to get pregnant for years, tried IVF treatment with 4 failed IVF. My friend at work me to this doctor (Saleh), first I made appointment with him, alone coz my husband had given up & wanted us to take a break. We were deeply frustrated, depressed emotionally, physically & financially. , I went online & searched for Saleh & his patients reviews, after reading the reviews my hopes & spirit of trying again were high. After my first appointment with, Dr Saleh was very friendly, kind, knowledgeable & very reassuring. Doctor Saleh & his staff made it possible & our dreams came through after 1st IVF attempt. We’re 8wks pregnant, we’re praying for good health & safe pregnancy . Summer 2024, we will welcoming our bundle of joy. 🥹 thanks to Dr Saleh, Heather, Stephanie, Liza & the rest.🙏

Must read..
I was having blocked tube and bad egg quality.. still Dr. Saleh gave their best, his understanding and knowledge is commendable. He went out of his way to give a best try for whatever eggs we retrieved. But, my IVF failed.but he always kept me motivated that I can get naturally pregnant,it just take one good egg. I took break and did my diet and lifestyle change which helped me conceived naturally after 9 months. Please email me ,I would love to help those who are struggling like me. seemaupe.1512@gmail.com.

Our experience with Dr. Saleh has been amazing. Dr.Saleh is very knowledgable, caring and down to earth. 
We have been dealing with infertility for 2 years. My previous doctor was unable to identify the root cause. We were so glad that Dr.Saleh found the root cause for my infertility in no time. 
We would like to thank the doctor , nurse Lisa and the rest of the staff for making our journey smooth.I absolutely recommend Dr.Saleh for infertility treatment.

I have waited for one year plus to write this review. I typically do not write reviews. I will rather say my "Thank You" in person.
I went to Dr Saleh at 44 years old with early diagnosis of Menopause. It was a devastating news to deal with when i first found out. I found Dr Saleh on Google and his reviews were great.
I now have a beautiful baby girl and am in the process of going throuh IVF again.
I have nothing negative to say about Dr Saleh. No one is perfect, but he has treated with with nothing but respect. His staff especially Nurse Heather is the best there is in Nursing ( Coming from a fellow nurse) The entire office staff have been polite and easy to work with.
Infertility is a difficult journey. Having a doctor and nurse that helps you navigate this journey can make the much needed difference . I am praying for my Miracle #2 with God's help and the expertise of Dr Saleh. He listens and re-assures you even when you appear worried and scared.
Thank you so much Dr Saleh. You are appreciated!!!!

We saw doctor saleh back on 2016, we have been trying to get pregnant for almost 13 years. But a friend of mine referred me to him. So after two surgeries that I need it due to 2 fibroids and one polyp that my obgyn removed from my uterus, we were able to get pregnant with my miracle baby. God led my friend and me to this doctor. First God let's us become mother then doctor helped us make it happen. He is a smart and great doctor that I wish I had met back on my 20's so by this time I could've more children's. He is great he will tell you if with IVF you will be able to have a baby or not. My friend and me are so thankful with god and him for our babies.

I have waited almost 5 months to write this review. My wife and I had gone to Saleh to try and start a family. In the beginning we found him charming enough to over look some of the flags that we experienced (rude nurses, being called the wrong name, and my wife being addressed as my friend for 3 months). He seem kind and empathetic with the way he spoke to us and how he handled the various infertility issues that I had ended up having. From our first visit we were insistent on doing IVF and he convinced us that it would be a waste of our time and money, and told us we need to do IUI for at least 6 months before talking about that. After endless tests, prepping, and sonograms I finally was ovulating on the correct side to go through my first round of IUI (he addressed me by the wrong name again). My wife didn't understand how this was a cheaper alternative and the day after we paid everything for the first IUI we called Saleh jointly to discuss IVF again. We told him I was also on the call in which he either did not hear or care because he then proceeded to say how happy he was that we were FINALLY on board with doing IVF and how doing IUI was a waste of money. My wife reminded him that we had initially wanted IVF and that he convinced us otherwise, his response was that I was TOO emotional to hear the truth about the issues with my infertility (mind you I am still on the phone listening to this). Looking at this situation from an objective way this is technically malpractice, to tell a patient to do one thing when you medically know that is not what they should be doing because of an emotional response. Looking at this with perspective I am still confused as to how a medical profession could blame his patient, the one paying his bills, for a decision to do something he knew wasn't going to work. After this phone call it is very obvious that we were another paycheck helping this clinic profit. The amount of disgust and frustration regarding this whole experience is hard to part into words. I hope this review helps someone look for someone else or if you do see Saleh to look at him and his recommendations more critically. I realize that fertility clinics are businesses at the end of the day, regardless if their are medical doctors attached to them, they are trying to make a profit on a pipe dream.

Dr. Walid A. Saleh's response
My integrity and honesty do not allow me to take any patient directly to IVF. Trying 3-6 IUI’s before moving to IVF is a more cost-effective option in most infertility cases. The 3 months I use to order basic infertility tests and perform conservative treatments may seem endless to some patients but are necessary to determine your infertility diagnosis and attempt a few conservative measures. If successful, IUI can save my patients a lot of unnecessary treatments. Even with natural conception, it takes a few months of trying sometimes.

My door is always open and I am readily accessible by phone and emails. If anyone has any issue, I encourage them to talk directly to me. I do not find posting all over social media an effective method of communication. It is certainly unfair.

Providing infertility care is a two way street. I am not one of those trying “to make a profit on a pipe dream” and trying to "improve my clinic's profit" by pushing people straight to IVF. I actually try to save my patient unnecessary expenses by trying more conservative treatments first. It is also important for a physician to discuss reasonable expectations with his patients. It is good medical practice.

I recommend anyone struggling with infertility to consider counseling before rushing into this hard journey.
