The wiki has a section on them: https://humanmicrobiome.info/where-to-get-fmt/#ippm-clinic
No, I would not use them.

Hi all,
I'm considering FMT at IPPM for a complex mood disorder. I'm one year postpartum. I've tried many different classes of medications, from SSRIs to benzos to mood stabilizers to antipsychotics. Extremely sensitive to them all, to the point that I feel weak, sluggish, and like I'm dying.. ringing in the ears, depression, anger, hate, and anhedonia.. no love and joy for anyone, including my precious baby. The anxiety started with the SSRI 6 months ago, but the lasting anhedonia was definitely medicine induced.. doctors won't admit to it, but I'm just that sensitive to tiny doses (e.g., lithium 150mg.) However, when I try to get off meds it feels like my lungs will explode. Have been dragging through the day and trailing my mother in helping for the baby, but it's not been improving and I see no hope in sight with re: feeling my old emotions again. My husband has been supportive but it's rough.
Was recently looking into FMT at IPPM in Slovakia, perhaps negotiating a 10 edema in clinic + 10 at home protocol (+ 30 pills for maintenance.) I want to be hopeful but I'm worried, as I've been very medicine averse so far. Some clinics say they've seen cases like mine(ish), but honestly, I don't know; I just feel worried and sad.
Any thoughts? Or similar experiences? If not IPPM, whose stool would you use?
Thank you in advance.

There are no good sources of FMT because people are too lazy to take necessary action to remedy the situation.
