About

Bay IVF – Fertility Clinic in Palo Alto, CA is renowned for its advanced reproductive treatments. We are a San Francisco-San Jose Bay Area fertility center devoted to your success. Our expert care and support, combined with leading-edge science, is your path to parenthood. IVF is the most powerful treatment available to help infertile patients achieve pregnancy from their own eggs and sperm. We use gentle and individualized ovarian stimulation protocols that prioritize egg quality over quantity and reduce the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation, making your conception experience as natural and relaxed as possible.


We were one of the first fertility clinics in the San Francisco Bay Area to offer Gender Selection IVF. Our Gender Selection process uses pre-implantation genetic testing to determine the gender of each embryo with 100% accuracy before transfer. In reciprocal IVF, one partner provides eggs while the other carries the pregnancy, offering a deeply personal treatment for lesbian couples. Egg freezing uses state-of-the-art vitrification techniques to preserve egg quality for future use.


In addition to IVF and egg freezing, Bay IVF offers a wide range of services including pre-implantation genetic testing, male infertility treatments, embryo banking, egg donation, gestational surrogacy, and frozen embryo transfers. Every treatment is performed with sensitivity and professionalism to ensure a comforting, stress-free environment. Our clinic provides comprehensive initial consultations, detailed testing, and individualized treatment plans. With experienced professionals like Dr. Polansky leading the team, we are dedicated to nurturing your dreams of parenthood with care and expertise.
Dr. Polansky and his compassionate team at Bay IVF are dedicated to providing personalized care with advanced fertility treatments in a relaxed environment, ensuring every patient feels supported on their journey to parenthood.
