Physicians and Clinical Team
Your Family Fertility PLLC is operated by reproductive endocrinologists who hold subspecialty board certification in reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI). The physicians have completed fellowship training in REI following an OB/GYN residency, providing a clinical foundation that spans both general gynecologic care and complex assisted reproductive technologies. The practice's emphasis on individualized care means that patients typically have access to their physician throughout the treatment cycle rather than rotating through a large team of providers. Support staff including nurses, medical assistants, and embryologists work alongside the physician team to ensure smooth cycle coordination, clear communication of lab results, and timely answers to patient questions. For a practice serving a regional market like Western New York, continuity of care and local accessibility are often cited as key differentiators by patients who have compared options in the Buffalo area.

Laboratory and Success Rates
The embryology laboratory at Your Family Fertility supports the full IVF workflow, from egg retrieval through fertilization, extended culture to blastocyst stage, biopsy for genetic testing, and vitrification (fast freezing) for embryo storage. Laboratory quality is a critical determinant of IVF outcomes — the culture environment, media selection, and technical skill of embryologists all influence fertilization rates and blastocyst development. Patients should review the most current cycle-level data published by the CDC's ART Surveillance program and the SART Clinic Summary Report.
Interpreting published success rates requires context — a clinic's reported live birth rate per retrieval reflects the aggregate of all patients treated in a given year, not a prediction for any individual patient. Age, ovarian reserve, diagnosis, and embryo quality all influence outcomes. Patients are encouraged to ask the clinical team about outcomes relevant to their specific circumstances.
Patient Experience
Williamsville is a well-established suburban community along Transit Road and Main Street, east of Buffalo. The location at 630 Frankhauser Road is convenient for residents of the Buffalo metro area and offers easy highway access via the I-90 corridor. Western New York winters can make frequent monitoring visits challenging, particularly for patients commuting from more rural areas of the region — a community-based practice in Williamsville helps reduce that burden for local families. The clinic's setting also means patients avoid the longer drives to Cleveland or Rochester that some Western New Yorkers historically faced for fertility care. The practice serves a diverse patient population including heterosexual couples, same-sex couples, single parents, and individuals pursuing fertility preservation.
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 State requires large group health insurance plans to cover the diagnosis and treatment of infertility, including IVF. For Buffalo-area residents working for employers with 100 or more employees, this mandate often translates to meaningful IVF coverage — reducing or eliminating out-of-pocket costs for medically supervised fertility treatment. New York's mandate is among the most comprehensive in the nation, covering fresh and frozen IVF cycles as well as medically necessary fertility preservation in some circumstances.
Patients should confirm whether their plan is fully insured under New York law or self-funded under ERISA, as ERISA-regulated plans are exempt from state mandates. The billing team at Your Family Fertility can assist with insurance verification, prior authorization paperwork, and understanding what documentation insurers require. For patients without mandate coverage, the practice may offer financing options or can direct patients to third-party medical financing resources.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Your Family Fertility a good option for patients outside of Buffalo? Yes. The Williamsville location on Frankhauser Road is well-situated for access from across the Buffalo-Niagara region, including patients from Niagara Falls, Lockport, and communities along the I-90 and Route 5 corridors. Some monitoring appointments may also be able to be coordinated closer to a patient's home during long stimulation cycles.
What is the difference between IUI and IVF? IUI (intrauterine insemination) involves placing a concentrated sperm sample directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation. It is a less invasive and less expensive option suited to mild male factor, unexplained infertility, or donor sperm use. IVF involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, retrieving those eggs under sedation, fertilizing them in the laboratory, and transferring an embryo into the uterus. IVF offers higher per-cycle success rates and the ability to test embryos genetically.
What should I bring to my first appointment? Bring any prior fertility testing results (semen analysis, hormone levels, ultrasound reports), a list of current medications, insurance cards, and a summary of your cycle history. Both partners' involvement at the initial consultation is helpful for a complete evaluation.
Does the clinic offer reciprocal IVF for same-sex female couples? Reciprocal IVF (also called co-IVF or partner IVF) allows one partner to provide eggs and the other partner to carry the pregnancy. This is an option many same-sex female couples choose for shared biological participation. Ask the clinical team at Your Family Fertility about their experience with this protocol and what the process involves.
