FIRM Jacksonville Testimonials: Real Fertility Success Stories

Dr. Winslow,

Thank you for making all our dreams come true and helping us complete our family. We had our miracle baby on December 16^th! You and your entire team were a true blessing to our family, so we wanted to share with you!

Forever grateful!

There are not enough words to say to tell you how much we LOVE and appreciate you. You are truly a God send and I’m so grateful our paths crossed. I never imaged I would be one of the many people who suffered with fertility issues but after years of trying with no success and seeing other doctors, my dream of becoming a mother was starting to fade. I remember our first consultation meeting at the Brunswick office where you told us we may have to do IVF but you believed we would be able to have our own kids. I left the office that day with more hope and joy than I had felt in a while but I also remember being concerned and told my husband there was no way we were going to be able to afford IVF. Months later, we were undergoing our first IUI cycle under your care which was successful but then I had a miscarriage 17 weeks later. We tried 2 more rounds of IUI afterwards that were unsuccessful so it was decided that I needed to take a break….that break turned to about a year or so and I had come to the conclusion that I may never be able to have my own biological children. With much prayer and encouragement from my husband and family, I decided I would try one last time. When we came back to F.I.R.M. for another consultation with you, it was your suggestion we go ahead and do IVF so we started the process. When it came time to decide to transfer 1 or 2 embryos, we sought your opinion and after discussing it with you, we decided to transfer 2 embryos on 5/15/19. Both embryos took and we were having twins!!!

The twins were due January 2020 but we had some complications along the way. At 16 weeks, I was in preterm labor and had to have a cervical cerclage; then I was placed on bed rest with hopes that I would make it to 23 weeks to receive the steroids…We  made it to 31 weeks before I ended up having an emergency c-section due to preeclampsia. The twins were born 11/29/19!!!

I could never thank you enough Dr. Winslow and the FIRM staff for your love, support, and assistance with starting our family.

We had almost given up when we came to your office. Thank you for all your help, support, care, kindness! Thank you for not letting us give up! Thank you for being with us month after month and being confident that one day we will have our baby! Thank you for making us believe that everything is possible! Thank you for giving us a chance to be parents of this joyful, curious, kind, smart little boy. He is our everything! We did not know we could love this much! 

We were so blessed to have the opportunity to work with Dr. Winslow and his staff at FIRM during our battle with infertility. I have never met a more kind, caring and compassionate physician than Dr. Winslow. I can honestly say that he went above and beyond to help us get our little miracle on the way. One thing I loved about the FIRM is that every time I went, I was seen by a physician and not a nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant. The nurses are very skilled and always available to answer questions and help lead and guide you in this journey. There was never a time I called the office that I did not speak to a nurse or one did not call me back within a timely manner. We felt so much support from all the staff and they were our biggest cheerleaders along the journey and celebrated with us with the pregnancy. On a scale of 1-5, Dr. Winslow and FIRM are a 10! They never let us down. We are so thankful that God used this group to help us and it is with great joy that we announce we are infertile no more and are welcoming a little boy early August!
