Ark-La-Tex Fertility is located at 2401 Greenwood Road, Suite A, Shreveport, LA 71103, serving as the primary full-service fertility practice for the Arkansas-Louisiana-Texas tri-state region. The clinic holds a 4.5-star rating from 41 patient reviews and draws patients from across northwest Louisiana, southwest Arkansas, and northeast Texas — communities that historically travel to Shreveport for specialty medical care. The suite A designation reflects the current operational entity for this practice, which has a distinct NPI registration from the older Center for Fertility entity at the same address.

Physicians and Clinical Team
Ark-La-Tex Fertility's physician team includes board-certified reproductive endocrinologists who provide the full scope of fertility evaluation and treatment services for the Ark-La-Tex region. The regional nature of the practice means physicians here have experience with the clinical presentations common across the tri-state population — including PCOS, tubal factor from prior pelvic infections, uterine fibroid-associated infertility, and male factor diagnoses. The team's coordination skills are tested by the practice's geographic footprint: patients often travel from one to three hours for appointments, requiring efficient scheduling and remote communication between visits. Supporting the physicians are fertility nurses, embryologists, and care coordinators who have built systems to manage the logistics of a regionally dispersed patient base.

Ark-La-Tex Fertility's on-site embryology laboratory at the Greenwood Road Suite A facility is the primary advanced reproductive laboratory for the region. The laboratory team performs egg retrieval, fertilization, extended embryo culture, vitrification, and cryopreservation, with protocols designed to meet the demands of a diverse and regionally dispersed patient population. The practice participates in CDC ART reporting, enabling independent verification of outcomes data. Patients should review the most current cycle-level data published by the CDC's ART Surveillance program and the SART Clinic Summary Report.
Patient Experience
For patients across the Ark-La-Tex region, Ark-La-Tex Fertility at 2401 Greenwood Road represents access to IVF-capable reproductive medicine without the need to travel to Dallas, Houston, or New Orleans — trips that for many patients would involve two to four hours of driving each way. Reviews reflect deep appreciation for the availability of specialist care, with patients describing the clinical team as skilled, compassionate, and attentive to the unique stresses of long-distance fertility treatment.
The Greenwood Road Suite A location is within Shreveport's established medical corridor, with convenient access from I-20 and proximity to Willis-Knighton and LSU Health Shreveport facilities. Patients from Bossier City cross the Red River bridge in minutes; patients from Longview, Tyler, and Texarkana in Texas reach the clinic via I-20. Parking is available on-site.
Ark-La-Tex Fertility has experience with the cultural and demographic diversity of the tri-state region, including the African-American communities in Shreveport and northwest Louisiana, the rural white communities in the surrounding parishes, and the mix of backgrounds in the east Texas and southwest Arkansas communities it serves. LGBTQ+ patients and single parents are welcomed.
Considering At-Home Insemination?
Not every fertility journey begins in a clinic. At-home intracervical insemination (ICI) is a lower-cost, private option that suits patients with no known fertility diagnosis — including single parents by choice, same-sex couples, and people who want to try a few cycles before committing to clinical treatment.
At-home insemination kits like those from MakeAMom come with step-by-step instructions designed for donor or partner sperm. Kits are a one-time purchase that can be reused until conception succeeds, require no clinic visit, and arrive in plain, discreet packaging. Many patients use them as a first step while working toward a fertility consultation — or alongside ovulation tracking while they wait for an appointment slot.
If you have a known fertility diagnosis, have been trying for 12 months without success (six months if you're over 35), or your physician has already recommended IUI or IVF, a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist is the right next step.
Insurance and Financing
Louisiana does not mandate fertility insurance coverage. Coverage for IVF and fertility treatment depends on your specific employer plan and state of insurance regulation. Patients from Texas and Arkansas should also note that neither state has a fertility insurance mandate. Ark-La-Tex Fertility's financial staff are experienced with multi-state insurance situations and can review benefits from Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas insurers. Self-pay packages and financing through healthcare lending partners are available for patients without coverage.
