Fantastic Office Staff
Our past and current patients rave about our friendly and supportive office staff. From the front reception desk to our highly trained nursing staff.
Infertility Testing
Assessment of ovarian reserve using the Clomid challenge test and transvaginal ultrasound for determination of ovarian volume and antral follicle counts.
The HSG (Hysterosalpingogram)is an infertility procedure used to diagnose uterine cavity problems (like fibroids and polyps) and fallopian tube obstruction. Our gentle techniques allow a nearly pain free HSG. Using tubal catherization techniques like selective salpingography and wire guide canalization, we can open blocked fallopian tubes and have helped many women avoid more invasive surgery.
Male Fertility Tests
We are also proud of our male fertility testing. Our advanced semen test uses sophisticated imaging and computerized analysis to get highly accurate and repeatable results for sperm counts, sperm motility, and sperm morphology.
IVF - In Vitro Fertilization Procedure
In Vitro Fertilization is an increasingly popular infertility treatment. Our philosophy is to obtain the highest IVF pregnancy rates with the lowest risk for multiple pregnancy. To accomplish this, we maintain the highest and strictest standards for our laboratory and utilize the most advanced techniques such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and blastocyst transfer.
The biggest problem in in-vitro fertilization today is multiple pregnancy. Too many programs try to increase their pregnancy rates by placing increasing numbers of embryos into the uterus instead of maximizing the quality of their IVF laboratory and paying attention to the small clinical details that can make an IVF attempt, a successful one. Data now indicates that blastocyst transfer can reduce the risk of multiple pregnancy while increasing the chance for successfulin vitro fertilization. It is amazing that we are still one of the few programs that use blastocyst transfer on a regular basis.
Other Fertility Treatments
Of course, we offer all fertility treatments here including intrauterine insemination (IUI), ovulation induction with Clomid Challenge Test (clomiphene Serophene), letrozole, Glucophage, Actos, Avandia and gonadotropins such as Gonal F and Follistim.
Laparoscopy, Hysteroscopy and Reproductive Surgery
Dr. Morris is an expert laparoscopic surgeon and performs laparoscopy for infertility problems such as endometriosis, pelvic adhesions, fallopian tube blockage, and uterine fibroids. He also frequently performs surgery inside the uterus (hysteroscopy) for polyps, fibroids and intrauterine adhesions.
