Perhaps the best way to get to know Carolinas Fertility Institute (CFI) is through the words of our patients. An individual or family’s fertility journey is extremely personal. Having a trusted fertility expert to help you navigate all of the twists and turns, and highs and lows, is essential. That’s why we think it is important to share our patients’ stories in video form. In these videos, you get to hear directly from them about their experience and their relationship with the providers at CFI.
The story we’re sharing with you today belongs to Jillian Purvis, a patient of CFI Wilmington, and her husband Kyle. Jillian, a nurse practitioner, tells their story in her own words. Like many of our patients, Jillian and Kyle started their fertility journey with a different clinic and struggled to have a viable pregnancy. After a referral from a trusted friend, they made an appointment with CFI at our Wilmington location. According to Jillian, “The second we walked in the door at CFI, my husband and I both can say we were exactly where we were supposed to be.”
Jillian went on to say, “From the minute we met Jessie (their provider at CFI Wilmington), we honestly felt like we had known her for forever. We didn’t feel like her patient; we felt like we were instantly friends and family. She took the time to get to know us and our story and our journey up until that point. And she was very reassuring that we were going to be parents.”
This is a good news story. Working with the team at CFI, Jillian and Kyle would conceive via Intrauterine insemination (IUI) – a fertility treatment that involves placing sperm directly into the uterus to increase the chances of pregnancy. They are now the proud parents of very active triplets – Larkin, Baylor, and Harbor Kate. We are excited for you to meet all of them in the video below. The video runs two minutes and 45 seconds. Enjoy! #fertility
