A patient’s FINA story…

“Our FINA miracle is almost 3 months old! Dr. Davenport is seriously heaven sent! I never felt like a patient number and Kendra was always quick and willing to answer my million emails with so much kindness. Thank you FINA staff and Dr. D for all you do!”
Thank you so much to our patient for sharing her FINA story!

Getting Started on your Fertility Journey

If you’ve been thinking about taking that first step, we encourage you to go ahead and reach out! You can either call us at 256-217-9613 or visit our website to set up your first consultation.

A couple’s first visit will consist of a consultation with Dr. Davenport. It is at this time that Dr. Davenport will gain a full understanding of your history, and you and Dr. Davenport will decide upon the best treatment plan for you. We encourage both spouses to be present at this visit, although we understand that this is not always possible.

At FINA, we will submit the charges for office visits, labs, ultrasounds, and procedures to your insurance company. Our staff will confirm what services are covered by your insurance, but we encourage all of our patients to verify their coverage as well.

If you do not have insurance or prefer that we do not file your fertility treatment with your insurance company, we offer cash pay packages for your visits. For those services that are not covered by insurance, we try to make them as affordable to you as possible. In these cases, we bundle services together in order to discount the overall cost to you.

Our fertility clinic is designed to personally assist you through this journey. Though you may feel anxious, we are here to walk this journey with you. ❤️

Another precious miracle ♥

It is always such a highlight for us when a patient brings in their sweet baby to meet Dr. Davenport and the staff. These precious miracles are exactly why we do what we do! ❤

“I’m glad we chose FINA…”

“Starting fertility treatments is overwhelming and scary, which is why I’m glad we chose FINA to begin our journey towards parenthood. Everyone in this clinic makes you feel like family.
Dr. D is an amazing and educated doctor and we always trusted him when he pointed us towards a new step in this journey. Our nurse Kendra is the best nurse I’ve ever met. She always made me feel at ease and she was always upbeat.
We were honestly sad to leave everyone once we graduated, but we’re so thankful for everything they did to get us to this pregnancy and we can’t wait to come back and show off our little boy this fall.”
Experiences like this make us so grateful to do what we do. ❤️

National Infertility Awareness Week

RAISING AWARENESS DURING NATIONAL INFERTILITY AWARENESS WEEK APRIL 24-30, 2022✨
 
It comes natural for most to dream of a future with children. Because conception is a natural expectation, it becomes quite frustrating and disappointing when plans do not become reality on demand. Many couples will uniquely relay the heartaches of a lonely struggle. For most couples, attempting to conceive a child is a very intimate process that is clothed in privacy. But because of the quiet nature of this process, those who are unable to voluntarily conceive often suffer in private as well. Infertility is spoken of far too seldom in our society.
 
HOWEVER, INFERTILITY IS NOT UNCOMMON.
IN FACT, IT OCCURS IN 15% OF ALL COUPLES.
 
And infertility doesn’t discriminate. While it impacts people across gender, race and socio-economic class, access to treatment is even more difficult for those who lack insurance coverage or the economic means to pay for care out-of-pocket.
 
HOW CAN YOU HELP RAISE AWARENESS?
 
+ Share your story. Not only can this help you cope with your feelings, but this may also help others who are experiencing the same struggles.
 
+ Find a support group. Whether online or locally, this will allow you to hear of what other couples are going through or went through and will validate your emotions. It can help you feel less isolated and will empower you with knowledge.
 
+ Offer your ear (and a hug) to a friend in need. Even if you aren’t on an infertility journey of your own, chances are someone close to you is.
 
+ Advocate with your employer. While more and more employers are discovering the value of adding infertility benefits to their offerings, many don’t. Plan a time to talk with leaders within your organization about the importance and value of adding these types of benefits.
 
+ Support the work of an infertility advocacy group you trust. Advocacy groups help raise awareness, organize and advocate all year long. If you find that work valuable, lend your support by donating yourself or hosting a fundraiser.
 
For more information about scheduling an appointment with Dr. Davenport, please visit fertilityalabama.com or call us at 256-217-9613. We are here for you!

Endometriosis Awareness Month

Did you know that endometriosis affects about 176 million women (or 10%) worldwide? 24 to 50% of women who experience infertility have endometriosis.
This fertility health issue happens when cells or tissues similar to the tissues that form the uterine lining relocate and begin to grow outside the uterus. Endometriosis can grow in and on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, bowel, and other organs of the pelvic cavity.
It takes on average 7.5 years from when #endometriosis symptoms start to get a proper diagnosis. This is why awareness is so important.💕

Another patient’s FINA story…

We are so thankful to this thoughtful patient for sharing her story, even 2 years later! Experiences like this make us so happy!
“It’s been almost 2 years since seeing Dr. Davenport but never too late to give a review. Dr. Davenport is heaven sent and so is the staff. Coming from trying numerous years to get pregnant, I am thankful for this office. We looked everywhere for answers as to why we could not get pregnant.
After seeing Dr. Davenport, he informed us there was no issue and with a little bit of assistance, we got our miracle baby. I found out I was pregnant August 2019 with our beautiful daughter.
After finding out, I hugged Dr. Davenport and replied, “you did it”. He instantly replied back, “no, God did it”.
This is how you know you are in great hands! I speak highly of this clinic and refer everyone who ever felt like they had any issues. If I could give 10 stars, I wouldn’t hesitate.” ❤

A precious miracle…

After trying for 2 1/2 years to get pregnant, our sweet patient came to us for help and had a successful pregnancy within 4 months.
She sent us this pic to tell us how thankful she is for us, but truly we are so thankful as well…for our patients, for each pregnancy in which we are privileged to assist, and for these sweet little miracles.💕
