Embryologists

An embryologist is a scientist specialized in handling eggs, embryos and sperm. Embryologists are the experts who put eggs and sperm together to create and grow the embryos that lead to pregnancy. We're privileged to have full-time, experienced embryologists overseeing our state-of-the-art fertility lab - the only one of its kind in Lancaster County. Our staff adheres to the highest quality protocols when handling your specimens. We also have the technical skill necessary to safely perform embryo, sperm and egg freezing, intracytoplasmic sperm injection and preimplantation genetic testing.
