State-of-the-Art Fertility Lab

Open seven days a week, laboratory services and testing include:

1. Male factor infertility testing
2. Hormone Testing
3. In Vitro Fertilization and Embryology – including Pre implantation Genetic Testing (PGD) and the freezing and long-term storage of sperm, eggs and embryos.

The comprehensive nature of the Genesis laboratories offers all patients the ease and convenience of one-stop service and coordination of care.

At Genesis Fertility, we prioritize safety and quality. Our ART laboratories have a sophisticated 24/7 monitoring system that ensures all equipment, including the incubators and liquid nitrogen tanks are functioning properly.

In addition to the small Minc™, incubators, Genesis is one of the few centers in the country to possess a “Geri” a groundbreaking, time-lapse incubator  that provides a controlled environment for the development of embryos. It is the newest generation of incubator technology available; combining a state-of-the-art incubation environment (six individual culture chambers) with one high quality camera system dedicated to each culture chamber that allows for detailed tracking of embryo development during culture. This built-in camera records a more precise record of an embryo as it grows and allows embryos to remain in one place throughout their development thereby reducing the stress on the embryo. This powerful technology can be used for all IVF cycles, with or without genetic testing as it helps identification of the best embryos to transfer.

This technology also has the potential to provide an insight into the novel concept of morphokinetics, parameters regarding embryo cell dynamics, which are being extensively researched.
