Pollin Fertility Clinic helped a couple get pregnant with IVF and acupuncture.

Around this time last year I’ve been a patient at Pollin Fertility trying to get pregnant. Dr. Kim Garbedian and all the team supporting us on that way helped make it happen and now we’re having a sweet baby boy. Huge thanks goes to Dr. Bergman for amazing care during our acupuncture sessions which I believe made a very high impact on the result. Cannot recommend Pollin clinic more to everyone who is struggling on their journeys!

Patient had a seamless experience at Pollin with expert fertility care, a welcoming environment, and modern technology.

Pollin truly puts patients first. My experience was seamless - from my first consult with Dr Taerk to completing tests and then the follow up. Their modern approach and use of technology (like the patient app) make a real difference. I highly recommend Pollin to anyone looking for expert fertility care in a welcoming and professional environment.

I have dealt with a few clinics. I was very disappointed with this situation. Communication was an issue. I felt like I was always waiting for the next answer to my various questions.

I wish I could have given them a zero worst clinic ever seen. No professionalism. Rude people.

I was recommended Pollin by a colleague but unfortunately, I did not have a good experience. There was no availability with a female doctor to discuss egg freezing. I was disappointed but open-minded to speaking about my health with a male doctor. For most women, fertility and child planning can be a sensitive and understudied topic. I waited 15 minutes for my virtual appointment, then was rushed throughout this call even though this was the first time discussing my fertility options with a medical professional. I was frustrated and the worst part was the doctor got my name wrong in the call. I understand that it’s a busy time for them but this is my health and my appointment. Overall, it felt like the doctor didn’t care about me and I did not follow up and plan on going through with egg freezing elsewhere.

Does Pollin Fertility offer egg donation for IVF treatment? expand_more

Yes, Pollin Fertility provides a comprehensive egg‑donation program for IVF cycles. Patients can choose from frozen donor eggs sourced from accredited egg banks or opt for known/direct‑ed donors, with all gametes screened and matched to the recipient’s needs. The clinic’s reproductive endocrinologists coordinate the entire process—from donor selection and legal counseling to embryo creation and transfer—ensuring a seamless experience. Egg‑donation cycles are integrated with Pollin’s advanced IVF laboratory, which employs time‑lapse imaging and AI‑driven embryo assessment to optimize pregnancy rates. While medication costs are not covered by the IVF grant, the clinic offers transparent pricing and financing options to make donor‑egg treatment financially accessible.

All laboratory processes are performed under strict quality‑control standards, and the facility is voluntarily pursuing CAP (College of American Pathologists) accreditation, the most rigorous international benchmark for fertility labs. Advanced HVAC filtration, automated vitrification equipment, and a dedicated team of senior embryologists ensure a controlled environment that supports optimal fertilization, culture, and cryopreservation outcomes.

Does Pollin Fertility provide fertility treatment for same-sex couples? expand_more

Pollin Fertility is fully inclusive of same‑sex couples and offers a range of LGBTQIA2S+ family‑building services. Female couples can pursue reciprocal IVF, where one partner provides eggs and the other carries the pregnancy, using donor sperm when needed. The clinic also supports male couples through sperm‑donation IVF cycles and offers comprehensive counseling on legal, emotional, and medical considerations. Services such as donor‑egg IVF, donor‑sperm IVF, and future surrogacy coordination are part of the clinic’s expanding portfolio, ensuring that same‑sex partners receive equitable access to all assisted reproduction options.

Who are the fertility doctors and specialists at Pollin Fertility? expand_more

For self‑funded IVF, the clinic evaluates each case individually and may consider patients up to age 50, depending on ovarian reserve, overall health, and personalized success‑rate projections. All age‑related decisions are made in consultation with a reproductive endocrinologist, who balances safety, efficacy, and the patient’s family‑building goals while providing transparent counseling on expected outcomes.
