Fertility Preservation at NCCRM offers state-of-the-art options for reproductive-aged men and women who are about to begin treatments that could threaten their chances for future child-bearing. The North Carolina Center for Reproductive Medicine is the premiere center for reproductive health in North Carolina and the East Coast. It was established in 1992 to provide advanced reproductive techniques to couples who dream of having their own child. The physicians of NCCRM are board certified specialists. One of our founders, Dr. Luther Talbert, is credited with performing the first successful in vitro fertilization (IVF) in North Carolina.
NCCRM has some of the highest pregnancy success rates in the country. We offer medical center level care in a private office setting that is relaxed and easily accessible. Our state-of-the-art operating room and laboratory offer patients the convenience of staying in one facility. Our team of specialists offers a wide range of gynecologic and fertility services. NCCRM has been a member of SART, the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology, since 1994. Our center also partners with Fertile Hope, a national, nonprofit organization dedicated to providing reproductive information, support and hope to cancer patients and survivors whose medical treatments present the risk of infertility.
