Choosing Spring Fertility In East Bay

The Spring Difference comes down to who’s in your corner. You get one physician and one patient navigator who stick with you from the first phone call onward.

  • Physician-Led Care: Your physician is involved throughout your care, and a dedicated care team means you have the opportunity to see your doctor at every visit rather than meeting someone new each appointment.
  • Personalized Protocols: Your physician builds your plan based on your complete clinical picture, including your medical history, diagnostic results, prior treatments, and family-building goals. Spring offers minimal stimulation protocols, fresh transfers, and, where appropriate, egg or embryo banking cycles.
  • On-Site IVF Lab and Surgery Center: Our Oakland clinic includes an on-site embryology lab and surgery center, located one block from Lake Merritt, so your clinic visits, laboratory work, and procedures take place in the same building.
  • Individualized Care for Complex Cases: We treat every patient as an individual and work in partnership with patients who have complex clinical histories, including those seeking a second opinion.

Fertility Success Stories From Our Oakland Clinic

Going through fertility treatment is tough at its best, and can be devastatingly difficult at its worst. I cannot possibly say enough good things about our experience at Spring and with Dr. Okeigwe. We felt so unbelievably taken care of throughout our experience. If you are looking for a fertility clinic that will make you feel like family, Spring is it.
