General Practitioners

• Primary Care
  Very attentive staff with the specialized knowledge and expertise to help you with fertility. After 5+ years of trying (approaching age 40), I decided to leave my primary care provider and try Center for Fertility as my IVF option. In doing so, the cost was entirely out of pocket. The cost can be daunting at first but the level of specialized care you receive is so worth it. They were able to identify specific barriers that were keeping me from being able to conceive and carry a child. I would listen and choose to go with all their recommendations, even if it adds another $ to your bill. The Dr. and all the nurses are incredibly sweet and truly want the best outcome for you and your family. Highly recommend to anyone seeking fertility assistance! View On Google
• Male Infertility
  A variety of abnormalities can cause male infertility. Sperm can be completely absent from the ejaculate (azoospermia) or present in low concentrations (oligospermia). Sperm may have poor motility (asthenospermia) or have an increased percentage of abnormal shapes (teratospermia). There may also be functional abnormalities, which prevent the sperm from binding to and/or fertilizing the egg.

Surgeons

• Hysterectomy
• Laparoscopy
  In gamete intra-fallopian transfer (GIFT), zygote intra-fallopian transfer (ZIFT), or tubal embryo transfer (TET), gametes (eggs and sperm) or early embryos are transferred into the fallopian tube rather than the transfer of embryos into the uterus, as in standard IVF ( in vitro fertilization ). These procedures are similar to IVF because all steps, from down-regulation to ovarian stimulation to egg retrieval, are identical to IVF. However, several important differences exist. In a GIFT procedure, retrieved eggs and sperm are mixed together and transferred into one or both fallopian tubes (where natural fertilization normally occurs). In a ZIFT procedure, on the other hand, fertilization is allowed to take place in the laboratory just like in standard IVF, however when day-one embryos are formed (called zygotes), they are transferred into the fallopian tube(s) instead of the usual transfer of day-three embryos into the uterus through the cervix, as in IVF. In a TET procedure, day-two embryos are transferred into the fallopian tubes. The transfer of gametes, or early embryos into the fallopian tubes requires a surgical procedure called a laparoscopy.

Plastic Surgeons

• Laparoscopic Surgery
  Combined GIFT/IVF or ZIFT/IVF consists of both a tubal transfer (gametes or early embryos) and a trans-cervical embryo transfer. In these procedures, all known technologies are combined to maximize success rates. After transfer of gametes or day-one embryos into the fallopian tube(s) via laparoscopic surgery (a GIFT or ZIFT procedure), remaining embryos that had been left to develop in the laboratory are transferred into the uterus through the cervix two or three days later, when the embryo is three days old. The advantage of combined treatment is higher pregnancy success rates in couples that have failed multiple prior cycles of standard IVF.
