Cost of egg freezing & IVF cycle
May vary and will be confirmed when you book a consultation.
I was just denied care here because their office lacks the proper equipment to treat people of different sizes. I was strung along for months with misleading information only to be told that I can’t be treated there because their BED for procedures has a weight limit of 250lbs. This is medical discrimination of the highest order and I will be pursuing legal action.

Dr Purcell and the CARE team are very kind and responsive. In an emotional and tough season, they made us feel like there was hope for a baby at the end of this process. And we did end up with one healthy embryo that is now our young son. However, it took 3 IUI and 4 IVF cycles and a lot of heartbreak to get there. Not to mention spending thousands of dollars each cycle.
After speaking with two other fertility doctors and doing another cycle with another fertility office… I have learned that Dr Purcell uses “old school” methodologies that dragged out our journey more than necessary. We could have gotten many more embryos if she had used a different medication regiment and done all ICSI fertilization.
Additionally, it is just Dr Purcell in the practice. Which is great for more personal care. But at our new fertility office there are several doctors. Which in hindsight is preferable because if you have a complicated case the doctors can bounce ideas off of one another and come up with the best possible plan for you versus just one doctor’s opinion.

As a queer couple, we needed assistance with starting a family. We absolutely love CARE for the Bay Area and the consistent high-quality care we have received since day one. Thanks to Dr. Purcell and her staff, we have one child and are working on number 2. This clinic affirms and dignifies LGBTQ+ and modern families.
Update 9/28/21: we had our second CARE baby :)

Absolutely love this office and everyone in it. I've been with them for a year now and am so grateful for them. It's exactly what I had hoped for when searching for an RE. Dr. Purcell is so detailed, patient and knowledgable. We have excellent rapport with all of the staff and known exactly who we were since our first visit. I can't say enough about them. I never write reviews and felt compelled after seeing that negative review because that is opposite of the experience I've had with them. Looks like no one is paying attention to that bad review anyway cause they have a 4 month wait list. Its worth the wait.
