Ivy centers now represent more IVF cycles in California than any other network.

Ivy Fertility, a globally-recognized innovator in advanced reproductive technology, in-vitro fertilization (IVF), and third-party reproduction, announced today it has acquired NOVA IVF based in Mountain View, CA.

NOVA IVF is a Mountain View, CA-based fertility and IVF practice led by Richard Schmidt, M.D. and Meera Shah, M.D., FACOG. Founded in 1987, NOVA IVF is a premier fertility center in the Bay Area. Services include treatment for unexplained infertility, male infertility, tubal infertility, endometriosis infertility, and implantation issues. In addition to IVF treatments, the wide range of services also includes egg donation and egg freezing, oocyte donation combined with gestational surrogacy, and preimplantation genetic testing.

“Ivy Fertility is the perfect partner for the future of our practice,” said Richard Schmidt, M.D., Director of NOVA IVF. “Many in our community have invested extraordinary time for their studies and careers; creating a greater need for fertility services in later reproductive years; this partnership will allow us to expand our capabilities and serve even more people who want to become parents.”

“Drs. Schmidt and Shah are deeply respected physicians in the Bay and among reproductive endocrinologists worldwide. We’re thrilled they chose Ivy as their partner,” said Lisa Van Dolah, CEO of Ivy Fertility. “With the addition of NOVA IVF, Ivy Fertility centers now represent more IVF cycles in California than any other fertility network. I’m proud of the responsibility and privilege to serve over 6,600 families per year in California. The Ivy Fertility network now includes 40 reproductive endocrinologists in 23 locations across 8 states.”
