Our IVF Program
Infertility Solutions, P.C., with offices in Allentown and Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, has been performing in vitro fertilization since 1994. Our objective has always been to offer technologically leading-edge care.
We feel that our program also offers patients significant advantages over many other programs in the United States. One of these advantages is derived from the fact that we are a small program and have a close integration between the laboratory and medical aspects of this procedure. In many programs, physicians are not involved in evaluating laboratory issues. Dr. Rose has extensive interest and experience in the laboratory aspects of IVF and often both the laboratory and medical aspects of an IVF cycle can be individualized to meet a patient's needs. This can improve the success of an IVF cycle. Unlike some area programs, our laboratory is located within our office and is not shared with any other group or practice. Our smallness also makes every patient an important individual to us and not a number who is placed on a fixed ovulation induction and IVF protocol. We can provide a level of support that makes our patients feel well cared for. This makes it easier and less stressful to undergo IVF.
We are especially excited about out risk sharing IVF refund program, which as a result of patient requests, covers up to SIX tries at IVF and covers the pregnancy up until delivery, and our "3 for 2" discount program which is offered to all patients, regardless of their pregnancy prognosis.
We are one of few programs that offer IVM which is a variant of IVF. The patients for whom IVM is best suited are younger patients with a PCO pattern in their ovaries. A typical patient has had a prior ovulation induction as part of their therapy and has responded with the production of a large number of eggs or has had hyperstimulation symptoms (swelling or discomfort) after an IVF retrieval. IVM is a newer procedure than IVF and involves taking immature eggs from the ovaries and maturing them in the laboratory, before proceeding with more routine fertilization, culture and transfer. IVM requires almost no injectable medications or blood tests prior to retrieval. Since the ovaries have not been stimulated, there is NO risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. IVM is less expensive, more convenient, and less painful than IVF. For more detained information on IVM, go to our IVM information page.
