California IVF Fertility Center recently acquired the Sher Institutes of Reproductive Medicine Sacramento and has assumed care for the patients of that center. Additionally, California IVF Fertility Center has completed a collaborative agreement with the UC Davis Obstetrics and Gynecology department to provide all infertility treatment services formerly offered by the UC Davis Fertility Program. Additional announcements about the future plans for the consolidated program are coming soon.

Dr. Ernest Zeringue, Medical Director of California IVF Fertility Center states, “This is a big undertaking which will significantly alter the delivery of fertility treatment services in the Northern California area. We hope to leverage our reputation of outstanding patient care and new Sacramento location with the scientific resources of UC Davis.”

When compared with current embryo donation and adoption programs, California Conceptions is unique because most intended parents will not have to wait for years to get pregnant. Most failed IVF patients who join this program will be matched with anonymously donated embryos within 6 months of submitting a recipient profile and qualify for a refund if they do not achieve a successful clinical pregnancy.

California IVF Director Dr. Ernest Zeringue says, “The California Conceptions donated embryo program is a great alternative to egg donation and adoption. Most infertility patients are not able to get pregnant because of egg and sperm quality issues. But these genetic factors have nothing do with a women’s ability to carry a successful pregnancy. For patients who believe that genetics do not necessarily make us parents, anonymously donated embryos offer failed IVF patients an additional chance to experience pregnancy and the birth of a child.”

Using Gene Security Network’s Parental Support(TM) technology, at-risk couples undergoing in vitro fertilization can now test developing embryos for a larger number of hereditary diseases before implantation and pregnancy. This pre-implantation genetic screening/diagnosis (PGD/PGS) tests for single gene disorders like Sickle Cell and chromosomal abnormalities like Down Syndrome with a single cell from each embryo. This is the first commercial application of these combined screenings.

California IVF Director Dr. Ernest Zeringue says, “In the next 5-10 years, this type of test will become routine at IVF clinics, but at the moment, it is still cutting edge technology. This test offers at risk couples an additional tool for increasing their chance of pregnancy while minimizing the risk of having a baby with a genetic disorder.”
