World premieres

The medical team of ovo fertility was at the origin of two world premieres that opened new horizons for people with infertility:

 

  • A successful nIVF using epididymal sperm: the nIVF becomes a simple therapeutic alternative for couples whose spouse had a vasectomy (May 2004).
  • A successful egg donation collected in natural cycle: nIVF becomes a tool to facilitate egg donation (April 2007)

Clinique ovo is a proud partner in The Fertility Partners network, Canada’s largest coast-to-coast network of fertility practices. As part of The Fertility Partners network, our clinicians access unique scientific and medical resources that help us to provide best-in-class patient experiences. Together, practices across The Fertility Partners network collaborate on growing access to care, research and innovations that advance the reproductive medicine field, and delivering leading patient outcomes.
