Dr. Simckes and all of his staff are always so nice, happy, and encouraging. You can definitely tell that they are in this practice because they want to help people to have families and not for the money. I am not from the area but do not have any clinics close, so I have to travel. I had went to another fertility clinic in the STL area where I had done 3 rounds of IVF and my transfers were unsuccessful 2 years prior. I found Dr. Simckes because I wanted to have ovarian prp done so I went to his clinic to talk with him and have it done. I immediately liked him and what he had to say and liked his plan for me. I trusted him to do two more rounds of IVF where I have had more success with him at 34/35 years old than I did at 31/32 with my old clinic. I highly recommend him and his staff. The nurses, MA, and lab tech are all fantastic.Update: I am pregnant with boy/girl twins after transferring 2 embryos. Less

Fertility Partnership was my husband and I’s second opinion before giving up on starting our family. Knowing IVF was the only way possible, was terrifying to me, and was honestly out of our price range. We were stuck and didn’t know what to do. Fertility partnership was the first place that treated us with respect and gave us options that were within reach. The staff was beyond personable, thoughtful, and truly cared about our journey to starting a family of our own. Deanna was our IVF Coordinator, who throughout our journey was there every step of the way! She was there to explain things, answer questions, and guide us in a direction that made overcoming IVF seem less overwhelming. Dash was then took over once we got to move into early pregnancy stages. She was very positive and helpful during a time that was nerve wrecking. Overall, we are beyond thankful and grateful Fertility Partnership gave us the next steps to growing our family. There are no words that I could share to explain how thankful we are to have had their expertise and guidance in our IVF journey. Less

If you want a Doctor who will make the experience fun, less stressful, has a laid back personality, but is completely honest and keeps it 100% - this is the place for you! The staff was really great about making sure you knew what to expect and next steps of the process along the entire way. Invocell was a great choice- cheapest compared to any other office in the area. Our frozen transfer was successful on the first try. Just an amazing experience from start to finish! Less

I started my journey with Dr.Simckes in 2019. He took his time to talk to me and my husband and ran every single test imaginable to figure out the best way to approach getting me pregnant. When Covid hit we took a break until 2024. We picked up right where we left off. Before I knew it I was pregnant thanks to dr simckes. The coordinators and whole office staff was super helpful and answered any questions I had. I had no problems with communication or getting the help I needed. Doc takes his time with each patient which can lead to some appointments starting later than normal, but it's worth it! Less

My husband and I did IVF due to him getting a vasectomy. My oldest son has Cystic Fibrosis and at the time we did not know how healthy he would be so we only wanted one more child. After having my second child and my oldest being super healthy we both wished to have another baby. My husband being on the bigger side was not a good candidate for reversal nor I’d guaranteed to work. We decided upon IVF and Dr. Simckes was very honest and open with my age and low amh. I ended up getting one embryo that was a normal girl which we were super happy about but also knew that it was guaranteed she would stick. In January 2024 I went in for my transfer and she stuck I know have a healthy three month old little girl thanks to Fertility Partnership. I loved their honesty through the whole time we were with them and how happy they where that it worked for us. Less

We love Dr. Simckes and his amazing staff of nurses and embryologist, and our dream of having a baby wouldn’t have come true without them. Dr. Simckes is incredibly skilled and successful at what he does, but he’s also so down to earth and funny. We had a very successful IVF and FET cycle on our first try. We know other patients who unsuccessfully worked with 1-3 other clinics before coming to Fertility Partnership, and they finally got pregnant with the help of Dr. Simckes. My husband and I never felt like we were walking into a clinic, it felt very comfortable and friendly. Even though we have been released from the clinic and are now seeing a regular OB, I still text our IVF nurse with photos and updates. The team truly cares about their patients and the work and service they provide to everyone is above and beyond. Less

I don’t even know where to begin. We got referred by an NP in Springfield, Mo. we saw Dr. Simckes and Deanna at our very first visit October 1st of this year. Throughout the entire process they have all been so amazing to work with. My husband and I did not think it was possible for us to have any kids. Our first time seeing Dr. Simckes he brought the hope back that we needed. We did IVF with them and did a fresh transfer and it was successful and we have 4 other frozen babes with them! Jordan our nurse was also very kind and attentive for our transfer and egg retrieval. I developed late OHSS and Dr. Simckes was simply amazing. He was calling and texting me to check on me periodically when he was on vacation and not even in town. He truly cares about his patients and it shows deeply. I would highly recommend them to anyone struggling with fertility. Less

Words cannot express how thankful we are for Dr. Simckes. We tried for two years to have a baby. Finally met with Fertility Partnership in early October and by Thanksgiving we were pregnant. Deanna has been an amazing coordinator, there for us 7 days per week by text. Amazing team Cathay works miracles! Less
