The 10 Best Fertility Clinics in San Francisco

Collab Fertility suits East Bay patients who want fertility, male reproductive care and nutrition advice under one roof. Founder and medical director Thalia R. Segal, MD, works alongside reproductive urologist Dr. James Smith and a lab directed by Xinli Yang, PhD. The Walnut Creek clinic offers IVF, IUI, egg and embryo freezing, donor programs, gestational carriers and fertility preservation before cancer treatment. It is in network with United Healthcare, Cigna, Hill Physicians, Health Net and Carrot.

The Turek Clinic is the place to start for couples whose fertility workup points to the male partner. Dr. Paul Turek, a former president of the American Society of Andrology, founded the practice and developed sperm mapping, a technique for locating sperm in men who have none in their semen. Treatments include sperm retrieval, vasectomy reversal, varicocele repair and hormone therapy. In-person and virtual consultations are offered at the Sutter Street office near Union Square.

Lakeside suits Richmond District patients who want a first fertility assessment within their regular gynecology practice. Monica Hannon, MD, and Ziyad Hannon, MD, both FACOG, lead the team with a nurse practitioner. Fertility care covers infertility assessment and FemVue testing to check whether the fallopian tubes are blocked, with on-site ultrasound. The practice also treats PCOS, fibroids and menopause, which helps when fertility questions overlap with other gynecologic conditions.

Reproductive Science Center suits Peninsula residents who want fertility treatment without commuting into the city. Its San Mateo office on Park Place is staffed by Isiah Harris, MD, Sara Reid, MD, and Bahar Yilmaz, MD. Treatments include IVF, IUI and egg freezing, along with donor eggs, sperm and embryos, gestational carriers and LGBTQIA+ family building. A low-cost initial fertility check and guidance on California's SB 729 coverage help patients plan costs early.

Marin Fertility Center suits North Bay patients who want treatment and lab work in the same building. Its Greenbrae clinic has an onsite IVF laboratory and cryostorage, overseen by Peter Uzelac, MD, a reproductive endocrinologist who is also a laboratory director, working with Joy Brotherton, MD. Services include IVF, IUI, fertility surgery, egg freezing, donor eggs and sperm, and gestational surrogacy. Its DuoIVF program is designed for lesbian couples building a family.

Pacific Fertility Center suits patients who may need donor eggs or want to freeze their own. The practice has cared for Bay Area patients since 1999 and runs its own frozen donor egg bank, Pacific Fertility Egg Bank. Its doctors offer IVF, IUI, egg freezing, embryo genetic testing, egg donation and gestational surrogacy. The main clinic is on Francisco Street between North Beach and Fisherman's Wharf, with a second office in Greenbrae for Marin patients.

San Francisco patients can use its clinic on Daniel Burnham Court near Van Ness Avenue or a second office at the Salesforce Transit Center. Services include IVF, IUI, egg and embryo freezing, donor eggs and sperm, gestational carrier coordination and LGBTQ+ family building. First consultations can be held in person or by video, and pricing is set out before treatment starts.

Kindbody suits patients using employer fertility benefits or looking for package pricing. The Sutter Street clinic in the Financial District is led by reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Geraldine Ekpo, double board certified in obstetrics and gynecology and in reproductive endocrinology and infertility. It offers IVF, IUI, egg and embryo freezing, third-party reproduction and LGBTQ+ consultations, plus minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. Patients in active treatment can be seen on weekends and holidays when needed.

The UCSF Center for Reproductive Health suits patients with complex medical histories who benefit from an academic medical center.

Financial counselors help patients work through insurance and self-pay options.
