Has anyone here used Atrius Health (specifically Post Office Square) as their PCP? Any thoughts?

My confession is that I have seen the medical field change so much over the past 20 years, that it's unrecognizable in both good and bad ways. More people are leaving than staying, and I am worried the quality of care is dwindling. I try not to burden friends and family with some of the things I've seen recently, but the short version is that I'm no longer sure I have faith or trust in it myself.

Hi, just joined this bowl! I have an AH and things have gotten pretty serious this year. He started on and off with recovery always asking my help to try 30 days sober which I do to support but he consistently fail and avoids AA. I have been doing Al-Anon and it’s very helpful. I relate in most stories, but sometimes I feel so different from the people there (mid class religious housewife vs me an LGBT atheist consulting from CA). Does anyone have a meeting to recommend or has been in my shoes?

Those of you who moved on from being a teacher and into the Ed Tech world, where did you find your jobs? I’ve taught science for 11 years and worked as camp director / program manager this summer. I’ve easily applied for over 50 remote jobs but never hear back from the various companies. Has the hype around teachers transitioning to Ed Tech been overblown? THX

I am getting ready to start my first IVF cycle and I went in for baselines and I have a few cysts that haven’t cleared up. They want me to trigger immediately to start the cycle over again. Has this happened to anyone else? Fingers crossed I don’t miss the next IVF start date at my clinic!

Starting an IVF cycle shortly; and feeling very anxious. My period, which is usually within 25-28 days hasn’t started yet. It is 14 days late (and no, I am not pregnant :). My doctor had me patching 4 estrogen patches everyday for 10 days.
Has anyone else gone through this? Delayed period because of IVF stress? Or delayed period because of estrogen patches?

Sharing my story: I carry an abnormal gene in which me and my wife's first child was affected. We decided with our second child to use IVF. We started our journey in January 2021 and my wife went through 4 IVF cycles using my sperm in a 9 month span (her choice). We decided after the 4th round failed to go a different route and use sperm donation to rid us of the gene. During 2022, she went through 4 rounds of IUI and finally got one that stuck. She is now 14 weeks pregnant and due in April 😊

Ok second IVF. 12 eggs 8 made to day 5 and now going thru PGA test. Fingers crossed... need some good energy and confidence before the FET again!

How did y’all decide which doc/fertility clinic to go with? It’s so overwhelming. I had a consult with one my friends sister used and started the process but frustrated with them a bit (feel rushed). I’m in LA/Thousand Oaks. Recs appreciated too.

After 4 failed IVF cycles... we are thinking of building our family in a different way. How do folks get started with navigating the adoptions options and process? Are there adoptions counselors who can help us get started? (We’d like to do an international adoption)
