A Story Of Fate, Fertility & Friends

As fate would have it, one day while sitting in the waiting room, RADfertility patients Megan Batdorf and Emily Bonner spotted each other! The two had been friends during their days at Oxford High School but had lost touch and were excited to reconnect! It wasn’t long until they realized that they were going through similar fertility journeys and were only one month apart throughout the IVF process.

Throughout the days and months ahead, Megan and Emily continued to chat, cheering each other on for each major step. On May 2, 2019, Emily and Timothy showed up for their embryo transfer with nothing but good vibes and a positive spirit for Transfer Day. A month later on June 4, 2019, Megan and Matthew brought their own dose of fun to Transfer Day with Matthew’s ode to Megan’s strength and never-give-up attitude.

We totally agree with Matthew’s shirt – Go Megan! Matthew and Megan were inspired to wear these super fun Transfer Day shirts after seeing so many encouraging shirts from all of our patients!

Emily and Timothy knew it was a good day to have a good day! They sported these awesome Transfer Day shirts and brought their positive vibes for this milestone day on their journey.

Both Megan and Emily found success on their first embryo transfer. They continued to check on each other and serve as a source of support and encouragement for one another.

Megan ended up being induced one month early and Emily was scheduled to be induced as her little miracle was running a week late. With their timing right on track with each other, the physicians at Chester County Hospital placed Emily and Megan in rooms right next to each other after hearing their incredible story! On January 24, 2020, Megan and Matthew welcomed Connor into their family and one day later, on January 25, 2020, Penelope Moon was born to her excited parents, Emily and Timothy! Two RADfertility babies born right next to each other – now that’s RAD!

Their RAD miracle is finally here! Megan and Matthew welcomed Connor Batdorf on January 24, 2020.

Penelope Moon Bonner arrived one day later to her proud parents, Emily and Timothy, on January 25, 2020.

The Batdorfs and Bonners stopped by RADfertility to introduce Connor and Penelope to the team!

"I feel so lucky to have found RADfertility. I tried two other clinics before I expanded my search and found RADfertility. I drive an hour each way to go to them but I don’t regret a thing. They are so caring and so professional. Every time I message them they respond quickly. Every time I see them they have a friendly smile and warm welcome. They explain everything so well and I never feel lost in the process as I did elsewhere. They also took the time to figure out what was wrong. Other clinics threw up their hands, said 'I don’t know' and pushed me to try IVF."

"Dr. Feinberg and the entire staff at RADfertility are absolutely amazing. The receptionists, coordinators, nurses, and lab staff are compassionate, caring, and straight forward. I’ve had a 12-year infertility journey and I’ve tried other clinics but RADfertility was the only one I felt at ease with. They answered any questions that I had and were there any time I needed them. My coordinator, Amy, was the absolute best and always had my back. Dr. Feinberg’s dedication to his patients is incredible. You are not just a number there, you are a person with individualized needs and care."

"My journey with RADfertility and Dr. McGuirk started when my husband and I were trying to conceive and were having difficulty. We went to RADfertility, where we met Dr. McGuirk. I always say she changed my life and 'fixed' me. Dr. McGuirk is always learning more about endometriosis and how to help her patients. She’s brilliant and truly cares for you! I’m eternally grateful to her and everyone at RADfertility for their unwavering support, love, and care."

"I cannot begin to explain how wonderful RADfertility is. We were frustrated with trying to start a family and it not working for us. The entire team of doctors and nurses made us feel comfortable and hopeful that we would be parents. We experienced so many ups and downs but we never felt like we were on our IVF journey alone, we had our RADfertility team every step of the way. If you're looking for a supportive team on the IVF journey, look no further. RADfertility is the absolute best."

"Dr. Schillings always kept us informed and never gave up on us. She always explained our options and risks with each procedure. She called us personally when there were any issues or sensitive subjects to cover. Dr. Schillings was the first doctor that had answers for us and wanted to help us have our miracle baby!"
