Ranked #183 of 361 rated clinics nationally · composite score 56.6/100 — how we evaluate clinics

Reported live-birth rate per intended egg retrieval, by patient age — CDC NASS 2022 Final ART Summary
0% 20% 40% 60% 80% Under 35: this clinic 59.6% (57 retrievals); national average 49.7% 59.6% Under 35 35–37: this clinic 40.9% (22 retrievals); national average 36.3% 40.9% 35–37 38–40: this clinic: not reported (15 retrievals); national average 23.1% — 38–40 Over 40: this clinic 0 live-birth deliveries of 5 intended retrievals (too few for a rate) (5 retrievals); national average 7.7% 0/5 Over 40

Bands shown as a count (e.g. 3/15) had too few retrievals for the CDC to report a reliable rate. — means the band was not reported. We don't draw bars for either.
