Your First Visit

Learn what to expect and how to get started on your journey to parenthood.

Your First Visit is Your First Step to Parenthood

Your journey with us begins with a telehealth appointment, conducted via Zoom through Secure Video, so you can communicate with the doctor face to face, with visual aids, without needing to travel to one of our 3 offices. Once your appointment is scheduled, you will receive an email from Secure Video with a secure link to join the session.

What To Expect From Your First Telehealth Appointment

Your fertility provider will:
✔️ Review you and your partner’s (if applicable) medical history
✔️ Provide an overview of baseline fertility testing
