I just re-read the article. The woman mentioned in the article in the OP was seen by RMA – NY. New Hope Fertility then allowed NYU to use it facilities for retrievals and egg transfers. I think SIRM was also able to use the facilities at New Hope. From what I understand, Columbia however should be ashamed of themselves! A woman on another board I frequent was on around her 7th day of stimming and merely got a recording from Columbia saying that all cycles had been canceled and to stop using their mere immediately! Can you imagine? They basically made no effort at all to help their patients that were in the middle of cycling. The real shame of it is that New Hope is literally a few blocks away from Columbia. That same woman on her own srambled and went to New Hope and they are finishing her cycle as we speak!!

I have to give kudos to New Hope.

That is disgusting that Columbia would do that!!! To not make an effort to help a woman who is stimming to save her cycle is horrid and they should be ashamed of themselves!!!

Cindy- ITA. Totally would recommend people not even think about going there!

Miss you Hope you're feeling great!

That's awful about Columbia!! I actually liked them when I went for a second opinion last year too!!

I used Columbia and would again in heartbeat. There issue of closing was completely different then what happened at NYU.

They were give literally minutes to evacuate their buidling and were not let back in. They were in the crane area and even though they had power they were not allowed in the buidling to get anything as of minutes after the crane collapsed.

It is horrible that the cycles were cancelled and I am sure if I was mid cycle I would be irate but they could only do so much when they had zero access to the records or facility.
