We are forever grateful to the team at the Kelowna and Vancouver Olive Fertility Clinics for making our dream of becoming parents a reality. After five years of being unable to conceive naturally we went to Olive Fertility to start our IVF journey.
My husband and I struggled with infertility for 3 years. It was a tough time that we were often quiet about. We went through 6 IUI’s, 3 miscarriages, 1 ectopic pregnancy, and 2 rounds of IVF to get our Sophie girl.
I underwent egg retrieval/freezing in July of 2021. From the very beginning, the staff at Olive was absolutely incredible. I had flown to Vancouver from Northern BC and was staying alone to do all of my injections since my husband wasn’t able to attend due to the current COVID regulations. The first shot was the scariest but it gave me an immense amount of confidence for the subsequent shots that were required for retrieval.
