Dr. Samuel J Chantilis, MD

We can't say enough good things about our experience at DFW Fertility Associates and Dr. Chantilis and his team. The staff is amazing and well organized. Dr. Chantilis was awesome. We felt like we were always in good hands. We were able to talk to him when we needed/wanted. Nurse Holly is AMAZING! She was always available to answer questions and she never once got annoyed with us (we asked a million questions). The sonographers were amazing and super sweet. We actually had to come in on the weekends a lot and we got to work with many of the doctors - all were amazing. Everyone was invested in us. When we got negative pregnancy tests, everyone was supportive, motivating and kept us upbeat. We were lucky and IUI worked for us (on the 3rd try). When we brought our twin boys in, the entire clinic came by to meet the boys and congratulate us. We had an amazing experience and now have two beautiful boys.

Very skilled and great physician!

After two unsuccessful attempts with another fertility doctor we decided to visit Dr Chantilis. He was recommended to us by a friend who knew we were having difficulties conceiving. We were successful on our first attempt using invitro fertilization. I cannot praise Dr Chantilis and his staff enough.

Dr. Chantilis is an expert and his staff is dedicated and caring.

Ordinarily I wouldn't waste my time on writing an online review but I have to warn others about this office and Dr. Chantilis' nurse, Ruth. Like in most of these practices, you communicate with the nurse, assistant, etc. 90% of the time, so it's important that she have some sort of bed-side manner, or at least humanity. Sadly, my nurse was condescending, cold, argumentative, and just plan aloof with my care. She was even rude to the other staff. If I had a question, or a request for a blood test, for example, she'd rudely question why I was asking in the first place! It was awful, and, coupled with the stress of infertility, way too much to have to go through. Why would anyone pay to be treated like they were a bother? I even saved a voicemail from Ruth where she said, "we're all over the place with this one." What kind of a provider says something like that to a woman trying to have a baby? In general, I was rushed in and out of appointments like all I was worth was the… payment. No one really cared except the sono-tech maybe. They didn't even bother to call after my last failed cycle to see if I was alive.

So we started off with Chantilis for our IVF process. After a couple tries through a IUI, we decided to do the full IVF. First let me tell you our insurance was going to pay for everything. At that time, we found out that the doctors lab was not in network and the cost would be out of pocket $3000 to us. We contacted the insurance company through people we knew that worked there to get them to move on signing the doc up and make the doc in network. We found out that the doc and insurance could not come up with a resolution on contracted rate. Here is were he is a BAD DOCTOR!! We told Chantilis that we did not want to spend $3000 and his office would not sign a contract and we had found a new doctor! He decided to tell us how bad our new doctor was trying to get us to stay! Who does that!! Especially when we are talking about giving birth!! The information he told us was not true.. My wife came home crying that day. I called him and was very upset and told him to have our… records sent over to our new doctor by the following week. Well guess what, he never sent them over. I called their office and threaten to go to their office (which would not be good) if they didn't fax them over immediately! This office only cares about money! We are fortunate to have a policy that covered 100% of IVF! Our new doctor was awesome! She listen and is caring! We now have a healthy baby boy!!

In my experience the Dr runs very late (anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours). Was told he was 40 minutes late for IVF put back. Support staff not very friendly and lab side did not appear to be on the same page as office side. I would not recommend this office to anyone.
