The Center for Male Reproductive Medicine & Vasectomy Reversal is located at 2080 Century Park East, Suite 907, Los Angeles, California 90067, in the Century City medical tower complex. The practice carries a 4.7-star rating from 41 patient reviews and is a dedicated male reproductive medicine specialty practice — one of the relatively few practices in Los Angeles focused exclusively on the male side of the fertility equation. The clinic's website is malereproduction.com, and the practice serves patients from throughout Los Angeles County and beyond, including men referred by reproductive endocrinologists at partner fertility clinics who require specialized male factor evaluation and treatment. Patients exploring fertility options across California can visit the California fertility clinic directory.
Physicians and Clinical Team
The Center for Male Reproductive Medicine is led by a urologist and male reproductive specialist with fellowship-level training in male infertility and reproductive urology. This subspecialty — distinct from the reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) specialty that manages female fertility — focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of male factor infertility, including semen abnormalities, hormonal disorders affecting sperm production, obstructive azoospermia, varicoceles, and genetic conditions affecting male fertility.
The clinical team includes the attending physician, nursing staff, and laboratory personnel specializing in male reproductive function. The practice's approach begins with a comprehensive evaluation rather than a limited semen analysis, and diagnostic workups often include hormonal blood panels, scrotal ultrasound, genetic testing, and detailed semen parameter assessment.

- Azoospermia evaluation and management (obstructive and non-obstructive)
- Hormonal treatment for hypogonadism and low testosterone affecting fertility
- Retrograde ejaculation evaluation and sperm collection
- Sperm banking and cryopreservation
- Pre-vasectomy fertility counseling and sperm banking
- Coordination with IVF clinics for ICSI using surgically retrieved sperm
- Genetic counseling referral for Y-chromosome microdeletion and other genetic male factor conditions

Laboratory and Diagnostic Capabilities
The practice maintains an advanced andrology laboratory for semen analysis and sperm processing. Male factor infertility diagnosis begins with a rigorous, WHO-standard semen analysis that goes beyond basic parameters to evaluate sperm morphology using Kruger strict criteria, DNA fragmentation indices where indicated, and reactive oxygen species measurement for oxidative stress assessment when relevant. Sperm retrieved surgically — whether by TESE, micro-TESE, or PESA — is processed and coordinated with the patient's partner fertility clinic for use in ICSI cycles. Patients should review the most current ART outcome data published by the CDC's ART Surveillance program and the SART Clinic Summary Report.
Patient Experience
The Century City location in the 2080 Century Park East tower complex places the practice in one of Los Angeles's premier professional and medical high-rise environments. The building is accessible from I-405, Santa Monica Boulevard, and Olympic Boulevard, with parking in the Century City Towers complex. Patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Brentwood, Culver City, Santa Monica, and the Westside communities are within a short drive.
Patient reviews of the Center for Male Reproductive Medicine consistently emphasize the quality of physician communication, the thoroughness of diagnostic workups, and the efficiency of the surgical procedures — particularly vasectomy reversal. Men who have undergone vasectomy reversal at this practice and are in the post-operative monitoring period frequently describe detailed, accessible explanations of what to expect and how to track recovery.
The practice's role in the broader IVF ecosystem deserves specific note: in many cases where male factor infertility is identified, the center works as a referral partner for female-side fertility clinics, performing the surgical sperm retrieval that is then used in IVF with ICSI by the partner clinic. This collaborative model means the center routinely coordinates with fertility clinics throughout Los Angeles and Southern California on shared patient cases.
Men who have been told their sperm parameters make natural conception unlikely are often unaware of the range of treatment options available through a male reproductive specialist — from varicocele repair that can significantly improve sperm parameters to surgical sperm retrieval that can enable IVF even in cases of complete azoospermia.
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
California does not have a comprehensive fertility insurance mandate for most private employer plans. Coverage for male fertility evaluation — including semen analysis, hormonal panels, and urologic consultation — varies by plan. Surgical procedures such as vasectomy reversal are often classified separately from fertility treatment and may or may not have coverage depending on the plan and the clinical indication. The practice can advise on billing and insurance coordination for covered procedures.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this clinic treat female patients? No. The Center for Male Reproductive Medicine focuses exclusively on male reproductive health — including male factor infertility evaluation, vasectomy reversal, and surgical sperm retrieval. Female patients should work with a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist at a fertility clinic.
What is a vasectomy reversal, and how successful is it? Vasectomy reversal is a microsurgical procedure that reconnects the vas deferens to restore sperm flow after vasectomy. Success rates depend on the time elapsed since the original vasectomy and the specific anatomy encountered during surgery. The physician will provide individualized success probability estimates based on prior surgical records.
Can sperm be retrieved surgically even if semen analysis shows zero sperm? In many cases, yes. Men with azoospermia may still have sperm present in the testes that can be retrieved using TESE or micro-TESE procedures and used for IVF with ICSI. Whether this is possible depends on the underlying cause of azoospermia (obstructive vs. non-obstructive) and is determined through evaluation.
