Dr. Garza is a pleasant man..a kind man. My fiancé and I are getting pregnant and are trying to be mommies. He's always pleasant with us and described to my fiancé and I about the procedure's. I TRULY BELIEVE that he enjoys seeing my baby and is really going to try to help us conceive. It's hard to believe these reviews because He is such a kind and paticent Doctor..he kept up with us..!!

Their office was nice and quiet. I was worried it would be overly loud but it was fine. They did not knock before entering the exam room, and chose to just barge right in. It caught me off guard and I was very uncomfortable. Just a warning, they do not adhere to the customer is always right policy no matter what the situation is. They never listen to customers complaints and argue with them instead of trying to correct the situation. That's just bad business. They didn't show any sort of attention to detail, which I think is very important. I was afraid they were going to miss or forget something important. When comparing them to others in their field, I would say they are by far the worst I have ever seen. I will never return. I spent thousands of dollars with Dr. Garza only to find that the way he does things are way wrong! You don't trigger shot and then immediately do an IUI. I questioned it, and the nurse told me that it's all up to the doctor. I should have gone with my gut instinct and not spent all my money there. I give him 0 stars!!

I was a patient of Dr.Garza for over a year and it was such a horrible experience. At first, as a new patient, I was given the royal treatment by having staff be nice and answer my questions. Once Dr.Garza ran numerous of tests and I was placed on treatment plan, It was down hill from there. Their staff was often "new" and would ask me "what are you here for?". Well as a patient spending so much money, you would think that they would have my medical record available and know what I was there for. When given an appointment, I would wait for over an hour and sometimes more because they over booked or the lab (for bloodwork) was not available, even after confirming my appointment. Everytime there was a concern or I had a problem, I would bring them up to Michelle, who was Dr.Garza's office manager, and she would come up with some excuse. When I would voice my concerns with Dr.Garza, he would apologize and seem like he did not want to hear it. I voiced my opinion and concerns so many times (and in the emotional state - full of hormones!) that he refused to continue to treat me, in the middle of a very important part of my treatment that would determine if I would be able to get pregnant. My husband called and spoke with him directly, but he felt that his staff did not have to take all of my questioning. In other words, I was asking too many questions and that was just too much for them to handle. We contacted the Institude for Women's Health, but they refused to talk to us and send us to speak with their legal advisors, as if they were trying to intimidate us. It is so sad that a man like Dr.Garza, who is a specialist in fertility, toys with the emotions of so many women and families. If I could rate this doctor and his staff, it would be a total zero!
My husband and I are now seeing Dr.Arredondo and RMA of Texas and there I am felt special and care for, with Dr.Arredondo and his staff answering all our questions and we have never seen an unhappy face.
