Fertility Center and Applied Genetics of Florida, Inc. provides the
most advanced treatments to assist patients with reproductive problems. It
is understood that infertility consultation and treatment can be
very stressful. Experience has shown that a large part of this
stress can be Fertility Center and Applied Genetics of Florida, Inc. has an in-office "in vitro" fertilization laboratory capable of prolonged pre-embryo culture and micromanipulations such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), assisted hatching and pre-embryo biopsies (PGD). In addition, there is an andrology and cryobiology laboratory. The Fertility Center and Applied Genetics of Florida, Inc. is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO) and is registered with the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (A.S.R.M.) and the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (S.A.R.T.). Dr. Pabon, the medical and laboratory director, is a Board Certified Reproductive Endocrinologist & Infertility Specialist. He is a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology (A.C.O.G.), an active member of the Society for Reproductive Endocrinology (S.R.E.), an active member of the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (S.A.R.T.), a member of the European Society for Human Reproduction & Embryology (ESHRE) and a member of the Florida Society for Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility.
Our Goal
The goal of the practice is dual: to be a World Class Center for Assisted Reproductive Technologies and to provide very personal care to patients suffering from infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss and associated conditions like endometriosis. A very active egg donor program and gestational carrier program is maintained. Dr. Pabon is one of a handful of gynecologic surgeons who perform outpatient tubal reversals. Excellence is our primary goal.
A Very Successful IVF Program Since the beginning of the operation of the Fertility Center of Sarasota in July of 1998 and at the time of this publication, greater than 50% of our patients have achieved a pregnancy. Individual chance of success depends on the age of the female partner and the specific diagnosis. Patients younger than 35 have over a 65% chance of pregnancy in a single attempt. This has been achieved without a single triplet or higher order pregnancy in this age group. A couple's individual probability of success depends chiefly on the youth and health of the female partner's eggs. The Fertility Center and Applied Genetics of Florida, Inc. is one of the first IVF centers to offer blastocyst transfer. Most IVF programs transfer the pre-embryos at very early stages. High numbers of pre-embryos are routinely transferred because of the difficulty in determining the true quality of pre-embryos early in culture. As the technology and the embryo culture media has improved, we have been able to extend the time of culture from the third day to the fifth or sixth day after fertilization. This is the time when the pre-embryo of excellent quality will reach the blastocyst stage, which is the immediate pre-implantation stage. By allowing pre-embryos to mature for a longer period, we are able to choose fewer pre-embryos for implantation. This diminishes the risk of triplet and higher order pregnancies. 85% of our pregnancies are singleton.
