I saw Dr. Kornafel at the start of my fertility search since she was on my insurance panel in-network. My husband and I were appalled at her poor bed-side manner and lack of knowledge. I have a bi-cornuate uterus, and though she didn't know much about it, she seemed very alarmed and proceeded to tell us that we should never try to get pregnant because of it. She even went so far as to say getting off birth control would be unethical of us! Dr. Kornafel did not give any helpful advise or suggestions. She did contact me a couple of weeks later and said she consulted with a colleague who thought it might not be that big of an issue! This experience scarred us and when we finally decided to see another doctor, we couldn't believe how different his caring manner and prognosis was. With his help, we easily got pregnant with twins and I carried them almost full term with no problems! I am now due to have my 3rd child (conceived naturally) at full term. Don't waste your time, $, or emotional energy seeing Dr. Kornafel!
