Renowned specialists

When you’re in the midst of your fertility journey, there is little so comforting as the feeling of being in the right hands. We recommend choosing a fertility clinic that works with trusted specialists in the medical field, counselors, and other experts who are there to guide you along the way with ample support and the best service possible. 

Advanced processes

In order to give you the best chance of success, we recommend choosing a fertility clinic that offers state-of-the-art treatments using the most advanced equipment, technology, and protocols possible. We encourage everyone we work with to go with a clinic that prioritizes safety, compliance, and cutting-edge treatments in order to give our clients the best possible chance at achieving the outcome they are dreaming of.

High rates of success 

While success rates are an essential factor, they should not be the only thing to look for when choosing a fertility clinic. Keep in mind, success rates can fluctuate over the course of time, based on the patients they accept, or due to caution with regard to health risks. As a result, we don’t recommend making your decision based on this alone. Instead, consider the reason for those success rates alongside the clinic’s experience and the other factors they offer that meet your needs.

Treatment eligibility 

In order to protect their patients’ best health, or the likelihood of a positive outcome, many fertility clinics impose restrictions on which patients they will provide treatment for. Do your research and talk to multiple specialists about your unique fertility journey to find a clinic that is both willing and equipped to give you the best chance at starting your family.

Positive ratings

Before you embark on your own journey with a fertility clinic, it can be deeply valuable to get an understanding of what your treatment experience will be like. We recommend researching the stories and ratings of past patients, as well as the ratings from inspectors. Look for positivity and high regard in what’s most important to you. Choosing a fertility clinic that gives you the experience you are looking for can make a tremendous difference in your journey.

Affordability

We believe that everyone has the right to pursue their dream of starting a family. For many, cost can be a barrier. That’s why it’s so crucial to find a fertility clinic with fair treatment costs, flexibility for payment options, alignment with your budget. Consider the average cost of treatment in your area and don’t hesitate to ask for more information from a clinic about how you can afford their services and what exactly you will be paying for.

Minimal waiting times

There is no question that it can be comforting to be able to pursue pregnancy at your own pace. Whether you are looking to start your family as soon as possible or down the line, fertility clinics with minimal waiting times can often be a sign of efficiency – and perhaps even success! But before you make your decision, be sure to consider whether the waiting times are the result of a lack of patients or an indicator of successful processes.
