World-class IVF. One clear price — $5,990.

What it is

The price you see is the price you pay. For many couples, the hardest part of IVF isn't the medicine — it's the surprise bills. At Fertility & Lifespan Medical Institute, one IVF cycle is $5,990, all-inclusive, with no hidden facility fees layered on afterward. It's one of the most affordable IVF programs in Southern California, delivered by a physician-scientist who co-authored the field's leading textbook. How it compares: IVF at many U.S. clinics runs $15,000–$20,000 or more per cycle before medications. Dr. Brody built this program to make evidence-based IVF reachable for real families.

Who it's for

• Couples and individuals who want high-quality IVF without private-clinic pricing
• Patients paying out of pocket
• Anyone exploring their first cycle
• Patients seeking a second opinion after care elsewhere

Why Dr. Brody
