Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine's Beardsley Lane location at 300 Beardsley Lane, Building B, Suite 200, serves patients in Austin's western suburbs — including Westlake Hills, Bee Cave, Lakeway, Dripping Springs, and Cedar Park. This location is one of two Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine sites in the metro area, sharing the same physician team, clinical protocols, and website (austinfertility.com) as the South Austin location on James Casey Street. Patients in Texas can view additional fertility providers in the Texas fertility clinics directory.
The dual-location structure reflects Austin's geographic sprawl and the growing western corridor's demand for reproductive endocrinology services closer to home. For patients in the 78746, 78738, and 78750 zip codes, the Beardsley Lane site removes the need to navigate Central Austin traffic for frequent monitoring appointments.
Physicians and Clinical Team
Both Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine locations are served by the same team of board-certified reproductive endocrinologists. The practice philosophy emphasizes personalized care and physician continuity — patients are typically assigned a primary physician who remains involved in their care throughout consultation, stimulation monitoring, egg retrieval, and embryo transfer.
Fellowship-trained REI physicians at this practice have expertise in a broad range of infertility diagnoses, including ovulatory dysfunction, diminished ovarian reserve, endometriosis, tubal factor infertility, and male-factor infertility. The multi-site model is supported by a cohesive nursing and embryology team that enables consistent care standards regardless of which location a patient attends.
The nursing staff at the Westlake location are trained in fertility cycle coordination, which includes managing medication adjustments based on monitoring results, coordinating trigger shot timing, and guiding patients through the procedural steps of IUI and IVF cycles.
Services and Treatments
The Beardsley Lane location offers the full menu of Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine services:
- Fertility evaluation and workup for individuals and couples
- Ovarian reserve assessment and diagnostic bloodwork
- Semen analysis and sperm function testing
- Ovulation induction (oral agents and injectable gonadotropins)
- Intrauterine insemination (IUI)
- In vitro fertilization (IVF)
- Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
- Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT-A, PGT-M)
- Frozen embryo transfer (FET)
- Egg freezing for fertility preservation (elective and medical)
- Donor egg coordination
- Recurrent pregnancy loss evaluation
- Uterine evaluation (saline infusion sonography, hysteroscopy)
The Westlake Austin demographic — including many dual-career households, delayed-parenthood patients, and individuals pursuing elective fertility preservation — makes egg freezing and PGT-A services particularly relevant at this location.
Laboratory and Success Rates
Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine's IVF laboratory supports both clinic locations. Embryology procedures — including fertilization, extended culture to blastocyst stage, biopsy for genetic testing, and vitrification cryopreservation — occur in the laboratory regardless of which clinic location the patient attends for monitoring.
Patients should review the most current cycle-level data published by the CDC's ART Surveillance program and the SART Clinic Summary Report.
When evaluating outcomes, ask the clinic about blastocyst development rates, euploid embryo rates per age group, and their policy for patients with poor ovarian response. These questions give more clinically meaningful insight than headline success rate figures alone.
Patient Experience
The Beardsley Lane location's Westlake address offers patients easy access via MoPac (Loop 1) or Highway 360, with parking arrangements typical of a suburban medical office complex. For patients in the western Austin suburbs, the reduced commute during a stimulation cycle — when daily or near-daily monitoring appointments are required — is a practical advantage that reduces time off work and morning stress.
Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine's two-location model gives the practice flexibility to schedule patients at whichever site has earlier monitoring appointment availability during peak cycle times. Ask about the practice's cross-location scheduling policy and whether egg retrievals and transfers are performed at one specific site.
The practice's reputation in the Austin community has been built on a combination of clinical results and patient experience — including attentive nursing communication, accessible financial counseling, and a treatment environment appropriate for the emotional demands of fertility treatment.
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
Texas does not mandate IVF insurance coverage for private employers. Patients in the Westlake/Bee Cave corridor — many of whom work in technology, finance, or professional services — should check their employer's benefits package, as many large employers in these sectors voluntarily include fertility benefits.
For self-pay patients, Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine offers financial consultation services. Third-party healthcare financing (e.g., CapexMD, Prosper Healthcare Lending) can spread IVF costs over time. Multi-cycle package pricing and shared-risk programs may be available for eligible patients — ask specifically during the financial counseling portion of your intake.
Medication costs ($3,000–$6,000 for an IVF stimulation cycle) are separate from clinic fees and are typically purchased through specialty fertility pharmacies. Some programs offer medication assistance for patients who qualify based on income or specific insurance circumstances.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this location different from the James Casey Street Austin Fertility location? Yes — both addresses are part of Austin Fertility & Reproductive Medicine, but they are physically distinct clinic locations. The Beardsley Lane site (Building B, Suite 200) serves the western Austin corridor (Westlake, Bee Cave, Lakeway), while James Casey Street serves South and Central Austin. Both share the same physician team, protocols, and website. Confirm with the practice which location is most convenient for your monitoring appointment schedule.
Can I do monitoring at one location and procedures at another? This depends on the practice's specific setup. Some multi-site practices perform egg retrievals and transfers only at one designated surgical location, while allowing monitoring (bloodwork and ultrasound) at either site. Ask the scheduling team which procedures can be performed at Beardsley Lane versus requiring a visit to James Casey.
What fertility tests will I need before starting treatment? A standard fertility workup typically includes: day 3 FSH and estradiol, AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone), antral follicle count ultrasound, saline infusion sonography or hysteroscopy to evaluate the uterine cavity, and a semen analysis for male partners. These results guide diagnosis and treatment recommendations. Some tests can be coordinated with your OB-GYN before your first RE appointment.
Is fertility preservation (egg freezing) available at this location? Yes. Elective egg freezing is available for patients who want to preserve their reproductive potential before age-related decline or life circumstances that delay family building. The stimulation, monitoring, and retrieval process is the same as for IVF. Success when using frozen eggs depends heavily on the age at which eggs were stored and the number of eggs available for future use.
