Twig champions inclusivity and welcomes people from across the full spectrum of lived experience, regardless of their gender identification, gender expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, ability, or HIV status. “We’re creating the experience I wish we had when going through fertility care,” are the words of Co-Founder and former fertility patient Tanner Kohara regarding the clinic’s approach. Twig offers a range of fertility services including IVF, preimplantation genetic testing, egg freezing, sperm freezing, third-party reproduction (donor egg and donor sperm), and early pregnancy care. In addition, Twig provides in-house genetic counselling, reproductive, counselling, urology, and mental health services. Patients also have access to acupuncture, naturopathy, and nutrition coaching. Twig’s on-site, state-of-the-art embryology lab is designed to help its patients achieve the best possible outcomes . It is equipped with best-in-class technology to provide your eggs, sperm, or embryos with the best possible environment for growth, including a world-class air system – that ensures no dust, dirt, or viruses can impact the embryo’s development – as well as a time-lapse incubator, which provides both a safe environment for the embryo to develop and documents all the significant steps and changes. In addition, the embryology lab is accompanied by Twig Fertility’s andrology lab, where it performs semen analyses and prepares sperm samples for IUI, IVF, and sperm freezing. It is protected with the same rigour and care as the other lab and ensures everything is safe, efficient, and above board.

Twig Fertility continues to follow health care guidelines, including screening and mask- wearing and conducting as much interaction as it can virtually, versus in person. Some unexpected benefits are the increased openness to virtual consults due to more patient familiarity with telehealth practices which has supported lower inperson patient volumes that supports COVID-19 protocols. Twig Fertility looks forward to growing and expanding its operations in the Greater Toronto Area and beyond. It has already proven itself an imperative service to those seeking to build families of their own, with its cutting-edge technology and wellpreserved labs taking advantage of the latest in fertility science to ensure results. But what will always remain Twig Fertility’s greatest asset – and what truly makes it the Most Patient-Centric Fertility Clinic in the GTA – is the care it takes to ensure its patients are informed and cared for and that their goals are reached.
