Our measure of success is delivering parents the new baby they've always wanted - something we've been very successful accomplishing over the years. But we understand some like raw numbers - you'll see ours below. However, we'd like to point out, a comparison of clinic success rates may not be meaningful because patient medical characteristics and treatment approaches may vary from clinic to clinic.

a Reflects patient and treatment characteristics of ART cycles performed in
2006 using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos.
b When fewer than 20 cycles are reported in an age category, rates are shown
as a fraction and confidence intervals are not given. Calculating percentages
from fractions may be misleading and is not encouraged.
c A multiple-infant birth is counted as one live birth.
d Clinic-specific outcome rates are unreliable for women older than 42 undergoing
ART cycles using fresh or frozen embryos with nondonor eggs. Readers are urged
to review national outcomes for these age groups.
e All ages (including ages >42) are reported together because previous data show
that patient age does not materially affect success with donor eggs.
