Physicians and Clinical Team
RMA Long Island is part of Reproductive Medicine Associates (RMA), a well-established fertility network with roots in New Jersey and significant presence in the New York area. The Lake Success/New Hyde Park location is staffed by RMA-affiliated reproductive endocrinologists with fellowship training and board certification. The clinical team includes embryologists, fertility nurses, genetic counselors, and care coordinators. RMA's network affiliation provides access to shared research outcomes, standardized protocols, and subspecialty consultation across the organization. The proximity to Long Island Jewish Medical Center adds an academic medical dimension to the care environment.

Laboratory and Success Rates

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
Reviewers of the New Hyde Park location note the efficiency and competence of the clinical team and the helpfulness of the staff in navigating New York's fertility insurance mandate. The Lake Success address is one of the more hospital-proximate fertility office locations on Long Island, which patients with co-existing medical conditions appreciate. The LIRR accessibility is noted as a benefit for patients coming from Queens or further east. Some reviewers mention that RMA's scale can affect the personal feel of care, though nursing staff responsiveness is generally viewed favorably.
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
New York has a fertility insurance mandate that requires fully insured health plans for employers with 100 or more employees to cover up to three IVF cycles. The mandate also includes coverage for diagnostic testing, IUI, and fertility preservation for patients with a medical necessity (such as cancer). New York's mandate is one of the more generous in the country in terms of cycle count.
As with other states, self-insured (ERISA) plans are exempt from New York's mandate. RMA Long Island's billing team has extensive experience navigating the New York mandate and can verify coverage and handle prior authorizations. Patients with out-of-network plans or self-insured employers will need to work out costs directly; third-party financing and multi-cycle package pricing are available for those patients.
