Buffalo Infertility and IVF Associates

What Buffalo Infertility and IVF Associates does

Buffalo Infertility and IVF Associates (d/b/a Buffalo IVF) is a physician-owned fertility clinic founded in 1999 and headquartered at 4510 Main Street in Snyder, New York (Buffalo metro). It is the longest established and largest fertility practice in Western New York, operating a single-site, fully integrated clinical and laboratory facility open seven days per week, 365 days per year. The practice is led by three double-board certified Reproductive Endocrinologists — Drs. Michael W. Sullivan (Medical Director), Adam M. Griffin, and Chantal Bartels — supported by a Nurse Practitioner, an embryology team with over 50 years of combined ART experience, dedicated IVF and IUI nursing teams, andrology staff, medical assistants, phlebotomists, and billing/financial coordinators. Headcount is reported in the 11–50 range, consistent with a privately held specialty practice of this scale.

The clinical service offering spans the full continuum of assisted reproductive technology: ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF) with embryo culture and transfer, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), donor sperm (AID) and donor oocyte services (via known donors and partner egg banks), testicular biopsy (TESA), fertility preservation (egg/sperm/embryo vitrification), reciprocal IVF, and LGBTQIA+ family building. The on-site embryology laboratory performs oocyte retrieval, sperm preparation, ICSI, embryo culture, PGT, and cryopreservation; the andrology laboratory provides full-service semen analysis and male-factor diagnostics; and a tissue bank under a dedicated director stores cryopreserved reproductive tissue. The practice also operates the region's only reproductive surgery program, using the da Vinci robotic system for minimally invasive myomectomy, cystectomy, tubal repair, and endometriosis excision.

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service / per-cycle basis from IVF cycles, IUI, ovulation induction, reproductive and robotic surgery, fertility preservation, donor cycles, and diagnostic procedures. Pricing is positioned "among the lowest in the country" relative to the US average IVF cycle cost of approximately $12,400, with financing offered through Future Family and CapexMD for self-pay patients. The practice is the region's only Center of Excellence awarded coverage status by Progyny, Maven, and Kindbody fertility-benefit providers, and accepts most major insurers. Distribution is exclusively direct via the single Snyder facility, supplemented by an "out-of-town management" program that provides local monitoring for patients whose primary treatment is at other centers. The practice reports SART-validated success rates among the highest in Western New York. The business is privately held with no disclosed ownership structure, no parent company, and no institutional investment.
