In-Vitro fertilization
is an elaborate process in which the oocytes (eggs) are withdrawn
from the female ovary and fertilized with sperm in the in-vitro
fertilization laboratory. This is a highly technical process that
requires expertise from doctors, embryologists, and lab personnel.
For several
years our clinic has been the satellite program for Southeastern
Fertility Center located in Mount Pleasant, SC. This center
is recognized as one of the best in the southeast and continues
to have high pregnancy rates. Patients are able to have their
ultrasounds and lab work done in our office and the egg retrieval
and transfer of the embryos are then done at the Southeastern
Fertility Center. This allows patients minimum travel time and
works quite well.
Our laboratory
is CLIA certified and appropriate lab tests are done on a daily
basis for patients. We are happy to perform any lab test and sperm
counts for patients who may also be seeing other physicians out
of town.
