s the first in vitro fertilization clin- ic in the state, we
have helped build or expand families in Hawai‘i for more than 38 years. Our fertility clinic is based in Honolulu and offers state-of-the-art as- sistance in conceiving a child. We are one of the only clinics open 365 days a year, with ac- cess to expert infertility nurs- es, staff and an embryology team led by the only Ph.D. laboratory director on the island. We are here to serve not only the conventional couple, but also assist those desiring single parenthood or in same-sex relationships. We also offer coordination in services requiring donor eggs or surrogacy.
I describe the care offered at Pacific In Vitro Fertiliza- tion Institute as “boutique.” Our team of highly trained experts ensures everyone’s journey is specifically tailored to the individual, and we pride ourselves in providing per- sonalized and modern fertility care. We run varied protocols to achieve the best outcome when it comes to the number of eggs retrieved and embryo formation. In our embryolo- gy laboratory, we carefully monitor and EmbryoScope incubator.

Information can often pro- vide comfort and understand- ing for what you’ re going through. That’s why we often hold free monthly seminars on the in vitro fertilization process and other alterna- tives for couples with fertility problems. This relaxed, infor- mal presentation is designed to give you a good overview of the options, and a chance to meet one of our doctors and ask questions. If you have any questions or want to sign up for a seminar, please contact us at 808-946-2226 or email info@pacificinvitro.com. All free IVF seminars will be held via Zoom at 11 a.m. After you sign up, you will be contacted the week of your seminar with a Zoom invita- tion and instructions.

ploidy (PGT-A) on embryos to analyze for chromosomal abnormalities, thus helping embryo selection for transfer. Additionally, our laboratory offers preimplantation ge- netic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M), which detects specific genetic con- ditions (e.g. cystic fibrosis, sickle cell) that run in a given person’s family history.
Oocyte freezing for fer- tility preservation is another service we provide. This is an excellent option for women interested in delaying moth- erhood. It allows a woman the possibility to “freeze” her unfertilized eggs (eggs not combined with sperm) for future use, thus preserv- ing her fertility at the age the eggs were removed.
