Hi, all,

I am thinking of getting a 2nd opinion at Montreal Reproductive Ctr. I heard that Dr. Tan is very impatient and short.

I have a lot of questions and options to talk about for my recurrent miscarriages (all spontaneous pregnancy and spontaneous miscarriage). Probably Dr. Tan is not the best one to go to.

Do you know any other doctor that may be better for me?

Thanks
