Your First Visit

Your Fertility Journey with Regional Fertility Program

Each individual and couple has unique fertility needs. That's why we take the time to understand each patient's specific circumstances, including their health history and family-building goals. Regardless of where you are in your fertility journey, you can rely on the Regional Fertility Program to carefully assess your needs and develop a personalized treatment plan that effectively addresses them.

Before Your Appointment

Currently, patients can only be accepted for treatment through a referral from a Canadian practitioner or nurse practitioner. A booking clerk will call you to schedule your appointment approximately one week after receiving the referral. To get the most of your time with the RFP specialist, you will complete necessary forms. 

Your First Appointment: What to Expect

The purpose of your initial appointment is for your provider to gain a comprehensive understanding of your medical history and anyone else who will be involved in your care, if applicable. Once they have a clear picture of your concerns and specific circumstances, they can recommend and schedule diagnostic procedures to identify the root cause of your difficulty conceiving. During your first appointment, you can ask any questions you may have about reproductive health and potential treatment options.

Next Steps

Like finding pieces to a puzzle, your initial appointment and diagnostics are important steps the provider takes before creating you personalized treatment plan. Our team will guide you through the next steps and design a plan around your unique needs and family-building goals, ensuring you feel confident and supported as your complete puzzle comes together.
