Author: Dr. V. Gabriel Garzo
"Doctor Garzo was recommended to my husband and I after six and a half years of struggling to start a family. After my initial conversation with Doctor Garzo I felt a new sense of hope. I was immediately put in touch with Angela to get all the necessary paper work and testing in order for both us and our donor. Since we were doing this long distance there have been many conversations with Angela, each one instilling more and more confidence that this would actually happen. If Angela was not available I was attended to by one of the other nurses. They are all really great! I never felt like I was asking a stupid question or had a concern that was not valid. In less than a year of working with the team at RP we are so thrilled to say that we are expecting our first child! It was the genuine concern for us, the professionalism and the can do attitude of everyone in the office that we attribute this success to! Thank you!"
"I extensively researched fertility centers in Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties before selecting Dr. Garzo for our treatment. The very caring and high quality professionals at Reproductive Partners produced our healthy, wonderful son. I give thanks to God for Dr. Garzo and the TEAM at Reproductive Partners."
