Andrea VIDALI MD
Obstetrics & Gynecology - New York New York

Absolutely amazing, personable, and takes HIGH interest in YOUR case. I've been on 9 IVF cycles and I can't compare my positive experience with him against the others. He did my implant and it STUCK - I am now happily 10 weeks pregnant; and I honestly do believe it had to do with him making me feel so comfortable and his touch. His staff is super nice, no attitude and always willing to help / provide info you need. The visits are never rushed and you actually feel like a real patient, not a number or a statistic in a IVF clinic. Dr. Vidali is just amazing, there really are no words. If you get him as your MD - you are in good hands!!!

I am very grateful to Dr. Vidali for being honest with me from day 1. I went to Dr.. Vidali in desperation after finding out from my gynecologyst that my AMH was "low".My GYN had originally referred me to another doctor she worked with.But I have come to an understanding that I need 2 things from a doctor: competence and accessibility. You need both. I really liked the other MD I was seeing prior to Dr. V but rarely saw her after the first visit. As much as I understand that large centers have set protocols, I found having to speak only to the nurse quite unnerving. I had a history of 2 chemical pregnancies and they kept dismissing it as something that "just happens". It is common for people to move from one center to another if they do not succeed, and I have no hard feelings towards my first doctor. I am thankful to Dr. Vidali and Dr. Karpenko not only for giving me a baby , but also for making the experience of getting through the treatments as pleasant as possible.

IVF and infertility has been very stressful and overwhelming for me for over 4 years till the day we met Dr. Vidali. He immediately looked in to my case and guided us with a plan of action. Now we are blessed with a baby.

Before seeing Dr. Vidali, I had not had good experience with pregnancy. He was highly recommended by my OBGYN. I was extremely impressed with Dr. Vidali and his practice. He is caring and always took the time to answer my questions even when they are stupid. He is laid back and has a great personality which made the procedures less stressful. This obviously has passed to his practice. All of the staff is competent and helpful. They always call back on time and took the time to explain to me what I need to do. The procedure is successful after just one try and I highly recommended Dr. Vidali !

Fertility is a difficult field and if things do not work out for you it's easy to blame the doctor. As far as pregnancy rates go they are very dependent on many factors. For example in my case I requested that only one embryo be transferred because medically I could not have taken the risk of a multiple pregnancy. Other fertility centers may not have agreed to this, as it would alter their statistics.

I have been trying to have a child now for five years. Within those five years I have visited multiple fertility centers and walked away from each one of those with mixed feelings and no child. Since I was not about to give up on this I started to research fertility centers in the city and came across American Fertility Services in New York City and Dr. Andrea Vidali. From the first day at American Fertility I knew that this experience was going to be different. Dr. Vidali and his staff are some of the nicest people anyone could ever meet and have take care of them during such a trying time in their lives. The office is smaller than some of the other larger offices meaning a more personal and individualized experience. Dr. Vidali worked my case with extreme passion and did the little things like, providing me with his cell phone number to call at anytime and taking the time to meet with my husband and I at each and every office visit to discuss the progress of our case. He also was the one making the phone calls each day to update patients on good and/or bad news not putting that off on his staff. If you are still undecided on an office for your first visit or looking to take your case to the next level please seriously consider American Fertility Services and Dr. Andrea Vidali. I am glad that I did as it has resulted in me finally becoming pregnant!

Eight years ago, (single, and 43) I had the incredibly good fortune to be one of Dr Vidali's patients. I wanted a child more than anything else in the world and knew that I would never regret trying to conceive, but would undoubtedly regret not trying. Dr. Vidali spent an hour consulting with me before going ahead and running various tests. He asked all the right questions, and wanted to make sure I was physically and psychologically prepared for what lay ahead.

The quest to find a donor was long and thoughtful. Dr. Vidali was kind, compassionate, warm, caring, extremely qualified and had the best bedside manners of any doctor I had ever met. The same is true for his staff! After undergoing IUI's for 7 months, I successfully became pregnant and delivered the most beautiful miracle of my life. Not a day goes by where I don't tell my delicious daughter how lucky I feel, and how grateful I am to Dr. Vidali for his professionalism, and heart of gold. Thank you for believing in my dream!

My daughter knows she has a donor Dad, understands how she was conceived and is as eternally grateful to Dr. Vidali as I am.

I am honored to share my good fortune in finding and recommending Dr. Vidali. He is the best of the best in his field!

I was referred to the AFS by my gynecologist and was pleasantly surprised by the care I was given. The staff and nurses were extremely nice, which really makes a difference when your emotions can fluctuate going through treatment. After one failed IUI, he determined that the treatment had was not successful and decided to try a different approache. We were pleasantly surprised to learn that we are now 6 weeks pregnant. Grazie mille Dottore Vidali.

I highly reccomend using Dr. Vidali and his team at American Fertility. Dr. Vidali is a specialist in Infertility and Reproduction services. They were extremely nice and always helpful. Someone is always there to answer the many questions I had. I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing he was in tune with all my health issues. I did not have a pleasant experience during my first cycle which took place at a different facility and I was very scared to proceed with the Invetro process. Dr. Vidali paid very close attention in tracking my progress and we had a very successful cycle. He is very kind and very outgoing which makes you feel like you have known him forever. He is very professional and was very involved in every decision that had to be made regarding my health related issues. If I need to go through the Invetro process in the future he is my first choice.

Before starting with Dr. Vidali I was discouraged by a lot of doctors due to my age. I felt they didn't want to spend time on someone who didn't have a high possibility of success. Dr. Vidali on the contrary was very positive. He was very thorough and patient in answering all my questions, and explaining all whys, what ifs and probabilities. His expertise and knowledge gave me great confidence. Since this process can be long and emotionally taxing, one has to try without giving up with the help of an expert with a positive attitude. Dr. Vidali is that person who is with the patient all along. He is very professional but at the same time very accessible and friendly which puts the patient at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Vidali.

Dr. Andrea Vidali and his staff are most caring and professional. From my surgery to my successful fertility treatment I received nothing but the highest quality of professionalism and personable treatment. Despite the many faces coming and going each day I was surprised of how the doctor and the entire staff knew my name and that made me feel like I was part of their daily lives.

I would like to start by changing Dr. Vidali's name to (Dr Miracle). He does not care about your color your race or age, All he care's about is to make every woman dream come true. And his staffs are very friendly, pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable - and honest. He gives you all the information you need and is upfront and honest about the chances of success. He and his staff take all the time necessary to answer all your questions and make you feel so comfortable. This is a big difference from other doctors I visited in this area (reproduction) prior to going to Dr. Vidali. I never feel rushed and if I forget to ask a question and call back, I get through to the doctor and get a response quickly. After four miscarriages, I started giving up until I heard about Dr Vidali (Dr.Miracle) He gave everyone the same treatment & the same respect, his goal is to make sure that your dreams become reality.
I visited other Dr’s. who wanted me to have surgery, but when I met Dr. Vidali, he told me that I do need to have surgery to have kids. I would recommend anyone to Dr. Vidali (Dr. Miracle).

Thanks to Dr.Vidali, now I have my beautiful little princess.

Dr. Vidali and his staff are very friendly, pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable - and honest. He gives you all the information you need and is upfront and honest about the chances of success. He and his staff take all teh time necessary to answer all your questions. This is a difference from other doctors I visited in this area (reproduction) prior to going to Dr. Vidali. I never feel rushed and if I forget to ask a question and call back, I get through to the doctor and get a response quickly. In addition, Dr. V and his practice do not limit the age of the women they treat in order to enhance their statistics. At any other practice, I'd have been too old and would not have a baby - which I do thanks to Dr. V.

Dr. Vidali and his staff are the best in the business. From the first meeting I knew I found the right place. I found the staff to be so compassionate and understanding and always available (evenings, saturdays, sundays) to speak to me. Dr. Vidali helped us get pregnant with two beautiful twin boys and now we are seeing him to try again. I have personally recommended Dr. Vidali to others and will continue to do so.

I recommend Dr. Vidali because he is a beautiful person. i under went IVF and beause he made my husband and I feel so good about the procedure we not only went through with it but we were very successful at getting pregnant.

Dr. Vidali and his team create a comfortable environment to help manage an uncomfortable situation. My wife has spent many days in his office and I have also had several trips. Each time we have met with Dr. Vidali, he has taken the time to explain the process, what we should expect and why he is making the decisions he is.

The office itself seems well run, everyone knows there role and waiting is not a problem. For the routine appointments like labs, ultrasounds and donations, the support team has been professional, friendly and helpful.

That said, this is about results and after a couple of unsuccessful attempts with IUI, we are excited to have success with our first IVF treatment.

This clinic appears to be a high volume place with the most current technology and skill combined with the personal service, which gives me comfort & confidence. I do recommend working with Dr. Vidali.

I recently went through two cycles of IVF treatment with Dr. Vidali, and I became pregnant on the second cycle. Dr. Vidali immediately made my husband and I very comfortable. He never rushed us through consultations, and always took the time to listen and respond to all of our fears and concerns. He was optimistic and reassuring (he does not reject "hard to treat" patients -- a category that I would fall into in many other clinics), but also very honest and upfront about the fact that infertility treatment is a long journey and there are no magic fixes. Dr. Vidali is extremely accessible (more so than any other doctor I've ever had); he provides patients with his personal cell phone number and e-mail address, and is very responsive, even during off hours. His staff is wonderful, and the nurses are very caring and take the time to explain everything to you in detail. I felt like I got a lot of personal attention, and that the nurses and staff were really invested in me as a patient and cared about the success of my treatment. The office is very modern and nice-looking, too.

I will say that the waits to see Dr. Vidali himself can be very long (probably because he takes so much time with each patient and does not rush anyone out), but there is usually not much of a wait to get routine bloodwork/ultrasounds. Also, the nurses typically do the ultrasounds (although I think Dr. Vidali would do it if that was a patient's preference), and Dr. Vidali did not do my actual procedures (egg retrieval and embryo transfer). Another doctor in the practice, Dr. Karpenko, performed my procedures, but she was very good also and I felt very comfortable with her.

Overall, I would not hesitate to refer anyone to Dr. Vidali. He is everything a doctor should be (up-to-date on latest techniques and medical breakthroughs, but down to earth and personable), and he made my struggles with infertility a little less painful.

I suffered with infertility for 3 years before my partner and I decided to start the IVF process. I found that Dr. Vidali and his staff at AFS were very friendly and easygoing. I tend to be pretty high-stress, so it's nice to have a doctor who is basically available for my freak-outs (he actually gives patients his cell phone number and email!).
Dr. Vidali is the second specialist I saw, and comparatively his office is relaxed and fosters comfort and confidence. He's a really smart and very real doctor, and he did a wonderful thing for me and my family!
Highly recommended.
