Tell us a little about where you are. We will follow up to arrange a first visit.
You will not have to explain yourself
Finding a fertility practice should not mean bracing for an awkward conversation. Our patients include same sex couples and people coming to us on their own, and the intake is the same for everyone: what brought you here, what you want to build, and which route makes sense for your bodies and your circumstances, cost included.
Being a same sex couple we always felt welcomed and that the whole staff was rooting for us.Erica and Kari, in their own words on our success stories page
All of the staff are just amazing. Ashley makes everything simple and easy… They were very lgbt friendly as well.Kristen Spencer, Google review, July 2026
Routes to parenthood
Which route fits depends on your situation, and Dr. Jacob will walk you through it at your first visit. These are the paths our patients most often take.
-
Two mothers
Many couples start with intrauterine insemination, which is the simpler and less expensive route. If IUI is not the right fit, or does not work, in vitro fertilization is the next step.
IUI, IVF and embryo transfer, ICSI where needed
-
Two fathers
Building a family as two men involves a donor egg and someone to carry the pregnancy. The donor egg part is ours: we recruit our own donors and you can search our donor egg database. You find your own carrier, and we work with the carrier you choose.
Donor oocyte program, IVF, care coordinated with your carrier
-
Building a family on your own
Coming to a fertility practice single is common and it is not treated as unusual here. The starting point is usually an evaluation, then IUI or IVF depending on what that evaluation finds.
Evaluation, IUI, IVF, donor oocyte program
-
Preserving fertility for later
If parenthood is something you want to keep open rather than start now, eggs, sperm and embryos can all be frozen and stored. Our laboratory handles preservation and storage on site.
Egg cryo program, sperm banking, embryo and oocyte preservation
What we offer on site
Our laboratory and our clinic are under one roof, so most of your care happens in one place with one team.
- Intrauterine insemination (IUI)
- In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer
- Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
- Donor oocyte program
- Egg cryo program and egg freezing
- Cryo bank for sperm banking, embryo and oocyte preservation
- Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A)
- Fertility evaluation and testing
The donor egg program is our own. We recruit our egg donors directly, and women in same sex relationships and recipient couples can search our donor egg database and select the eggs that are right for them.
How the first few months go
-
You get in touch
Use the form on this page or call the office. Tell us roughly where you are in the process, including if the answer is that you have only just started thinking about it.
-
Evaluation and testing
Before anyone recommends a treatment, we look at what is actually going on. That means testing for the partner or partners who will be involved, and reviewing anything you have had done elsewhere.
-
You and Dr. Jacob choose a route
The choice depends on the cause, on your age and circumstances, and on what the treatment options cost. You will get the cost of each option we propose and the trade offs between them, not just a recommendation.
-
Treatment, with the same team
Monitoring, laboratory work and the procedure itself happen here, with people you have already met.
Questions we are asked often
Do you treat same sex couples?
Where do we start if neither of us has a fertility problem?
Is IUI or IVF the right first step for two women?
Do you run a surrogacy program?
Do you take insurance?
