We offer state-of-the-art technology, evidence-based methods and personalized care, including reproductive surgery options, at our award-winning fertility clinic and embryology lab in Palo Alto.

Our reproductive specialists use a variety of microscopes, cameras and special tools for reproductive surgery and microsurgery. Many minimally invasive reproductive surgeries are performed laparoscopically, meaning surgery is performed through a small incision.
