At Collab, we know you are busy and we want to make this process as stress-free and efficient as possible. We schedule joint testing for you and your partner a few weeks after the initial consultation. Subsequently, you'll have a follow-up with your doctor to review results and initiate a prompt treatment plan.
Genetic carrier screening
Carrier screening is a type of genetic test that can determine if a person or couple carry genetic diseases that could lead to increased risk for a genetic condition in a child. Carrier screening involves a blood draw or collection of a saliva sample.

Saline infusion sonogram (SAS)
This is a quick 20-minute appointment where we can assess the uterine cavity for structural abnormalities that might interfere with implantation or increase the risk for miscarriage. During the procedure, a small amount of salt water is instilled into the uterus while a transvaginal ultrasound is performed and images are taken. Your doctor will use this information to determine if any further procedures are needed.
Tubal patency testing
Tubal patency testing is performed the same way as a saline sonogram and can allow us to evaluate whether the tubes are blocked.

Ovarian reserve testing
Tests that are performed to evaluate a patient’s total egg count and can be used to estimate the number of eggs that can develop at one time utilizing fertility drugs. Common ovarian reserve tests include antral follicle count (AFC) and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH).
