They make the decision to put pregnancy on the back burner, but it doesn’t mean they aren’t serious about wanting a baby. They know it would have been easier to get pregnant in their twenties, however, they recognize that it is still doable. If that describes you, here is your guide to pregnancy after 35.
Fee for No Shows will be changing
Please be aware that the fee for not showing up for your scheduled appointment, or cancelling with less than 24 hours notice will be $50 effective 7/14/23. This will not be billable to insurance. For uninsured patients, or patients wishing to schedule an appointment for a non-covered service, such as fertility services, you will be required to prepay $50 to schedule an appointment. This $50 will be put towards your balance owed, or may be refunded if you cancel your appointment with greater than 24 hours notice. Please do not hesitate to ask our billing team if you have any questions.

Updated Ultrasound Policy
The safety of our patients and their families are of the upmost importance to us at Cedar Rapids OBGYN Specialists. With this in mind, we have updated our ultrasound guest policy and will no longer be allowing any children under the age of 14 into the ultrasound rooms. The only exception is a baby small enough to be strapped into a car seat at all times. Staff will not be able to babysit and children will not be allowed to remain unsupervised in the lobby. This applies to the ultrasound rooms only. Children are allowed in all other areas of the clinic. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for understanding.
Closed Labor Day
We will be closed in observance of Labor Day Monday September 5th. We will resume regular business hours on Tuesday September 6th. Have a safe holiday!
