Why Spring Fertility Is Opening in Portland & Featured Services for PDX

Spring Fertility is expanding its network of fertility centers to Portland, Oregon - with a new clinic opening in the Slabtown neighborhood in Spring 2024. Known for its commitment to providing personalized and cutting-edge fertility care, Spring Fertility's arrival in the Pacific Northwest brings new hope to individuals and couples seeking assistance on their journey to parenthood, whether through IVF and fertility treatments to conceive today, or through egg freezing to preserve options for the future.

Spring Fertility has garnered a reputation as a leader in the fertility space with a patient-centric approach. Founded on the vision of revolutionizing fertility care, the clinic combines advanced reproductive technologies with compassionate and individualized treatment plans. “Since Spring’s opening in 2016, we have supported thousands of people – both in the Bay Area and Manhattan, as well as from across the globe – on their path to parenthood. Opening a fertility clinic in the Pacific Northwest allows us to provide even more access to the level of care and personalized experience that Spring has become known for,” said Dr. Peter Klatsky, Spring co-founder. “At Spring, we measure success in two primary areas: First, we must provide the most supportive, individualized patient experience. Then we must provide the best clinical outcomes, anywhere.”

With the opening of their new facility in Portland, Spring Fertility aims to extend its impact and support the diverse community in the region.

Comprehensive Fertility Services:

One of the key strengths of Spring Fertility lies in its comprehensive range of fertility services. From basic diagnostic evaluations to advanced assisted reproductive technologies, the clinic offers a full-service approach to fertility care. This includes fertility preservation, in vitro fertilization (IVF), egg freezing, genetic testing, third party reproduction through the use of donor tissue and/or gestational carriers, and more. Wherever you are on your family-building journey, Spring is here for you. 

Spring Fertility has in-house genetic counselors available to support patients as they navigate information gained through genetic testing, to make the most informed decisions possible for their family. Additionally, Spring’s clinical psychologist Dr. Julia Conant is available for individual and couple’s therapy, and she leads support group sessions for those navigating IVF treatment. 

Expert Team of Fertility Specialists:

At the heart of Spring Fertility's success is its highly skilled and experienced care team, available to support every aspect of the treatment process with compassion and clinical excellence. The Portland facility will be staffed by a dedicated team of reproductive endocrinologists, embryologists, nurses, patient navigators, medical assistants, and more, all committed to delivering the highest standard of care. The collective expertise of these professionals ensures that patients receive personalized treatment plans tailored to their unique needs.

“We are excited to continue to lead and participate in research studies and find ways to safely study, test and ultimately deliver meaningful advances to improve the quality of fertility care for our patients,” explains Spring’s Chief Medical Officer and co-founder, Dr. Nam Tran.  “We hope not only to assist with exceptional medical care but to contribute to the scientific community in Portland and beyond.”

Patient-Centric Approach:

Spring Fertility is renowned for its patient-centric approach, placing the individual's well-being at the forefront of its services. The clinic recognizes that each fertility journey is unique, and the emotional aspects of fertility care are as important as the medical ones. In Portland, patients can expect a supportive and empathetic environment where their concerns and questions are addressed with care and understanding.

State-of-the-Art Facility:

The newly opened facility in Portland boasts state-of-the-art infrastructure and cutting-edge technology. Equipped with advanced laboratories and treatment rooms, the clinic provides a comfortable and modern setting for patients undergoing fertility treatments. The investment in top-notch facilities reflects Spring Fertility's commitment to delivering the highest quality care.

Community Outreach & Education:

Spring Fertility is not only dedicated to providing clinical services but also to community outreach and education. The clinic actively engages in initiatives to raise awareness about fertility issues, debunk myths surrounding infertility, and provide educational resources to the public. By opening its doors in Portland, Spring Fertility aims to contribute to the ongoing dialogue about reproductive health with events and info sessions in the area, partnering with local businesses to create spaces for community to grow and important, proactive conversations to happen.

Accessibility & Inclusivity:

The expansion of Spring Fertility to Portland aligns with the clinic's commitment to making fertility care accessible to a diverse range of individuals and couples. The facility is designed to be inclusive, welcoming individuals from all backgrounds, orientations, and family structures. 

In an effort to make fertility preservation (a service infrequently covered by health insurance) more financially accessible to those interested in pursuing it as a way to delay family-building for whatever reason, Spring offers a no-interest payment plan for one cycle of egg freezing at $250/month for 36 months. They also partner with Future Family, who provide payment plans and IVF loans to support families in need of assisted reproductive technologies. 

Spring Fertility has reshaped the delivery of fertility care by placing equal focus on both patients and scientific excellence. Spring’s exceptional outcomes and patient care enabled the organization to grow organically from a 13-person, single clinic, to the nation’s premier fertility platform with a team of over 300, including 16 physicians. Spring’s Portland clinic will begin accepting new patient appointments in January 2024. In addition to Portland, Spring operates seven clinics serviced by four state-of-the-art laboratories spread throughout New York City, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and Oakland. Spring plans to open its sixth IVF center in early 2025 but has not yet announced the location of that planned center.
