What iVF RIGA does

iVF Riga is a privately held fertility and reproductive medicine clinic headquartered in Riga, Latvia, founded in 2004 by Dr. Violeta Fodina. The company operates a single physical site at Zaļā iela 1 and is structured as a six-centre holding covering Reproductive Health, Pregnancy Care, Andrology, Genetics, Stem Cells, and Outpatient services. Its core offering spans assisted reproductive technology (IVF, ICSI, PICSI, insemination, EmbryoScope time-lapse culture, preimplantation genetic testing/PGS-PGD, ERA endometrial receptivity testing), donor programmes (egg, sperm, embryo), fertility cryopreservation, pregnancy monitoring with 3D/4D ultrasound, and adjacent bariatric and abdominal surgery. It operates the only reproductive genetics laboratory in Northern Europe and the Baltic states and the first official genetic material bank in the Baltics.

Underlying technology is conventional best-in-class ART supplied through vendors including Vitrolife (embryo culture media), Cooper Surgical (medical devices), Merck (pharmaceuticals), and Eurofins Genomics (genetic testing), with proprietary strength concentrated in the genetics laboratory and donor bank rather than software. The business model is fee-for-service professional services, with revenue drawn from six streams: medical treatment, surgical procedures (bariatric, abdominal, gynaecological, urological), fertility preservation, donor programmes, genetic testing, and pregnancy care. Pricing is unit-based per procedure (e.g., laparoscopic bowel resection up to €4,950, eTEP hernia repair up to €2,669), with some procedures subsidised under Latvian state-funded quotas — notably PGT-M and PGT-SR genetic testing since 2025.

Customers are overwhelmingly individual patients, segmented across couples experiencing infertility, single women seeking fertility treatment, oncology patients requiring fertility preservation, pregnant women needing specialised monitoring, and bariatric/obesity surgical candidates. iVF Riga explicitly markets to international patients in Sweden, Norway, Lithuania, and other countries via a Health Travel Latvia partnership, a multilingual website (Latvian, Russian, English, Lithuanian, Swedish, Norwegian), free Skype consultations, and an online e-appointment system. The clinic is unlisted and is led operationally by its founder Dr. Violeta Fodina; no external institutional investors or parent company are referenced.
