We are so excited to share that in July 2024, Pacific Northwest Fertility will be opening an expanded facility in Bellevue!

We are truly thrilled to be making progress in a space which will reflect the cutting-edge, world-class care we offer. This state-of-the-art IVF laboratory and brand-new procedure facility will allow us to continue to offer high quality care to our patients in the greater Seattle area.

We are here to answer any questions you have throughout this process. Do not hesitate to reach out to your care team with any questions or comments.

What

The new facility in Bellevue will house our procedure facilities and new state-of-the-art IVF laboratory. It will be conveniently located in Downtown Bellevue on the 7th floor of the Overlake Medical Pavilion, just down the hall from our current Bellevue location. As a part of the relocation of our IVF lab, all storage tanks with eggs, sperm, and embryos will be securely moved to our Bellevue location. Our Seattle location will remain open, and we will continue offering some clinical and laboratory services there.
