How we verify
Trust is the whole point of this directory. Here's exactly how a listing gets made, and what we refuse to do.
Where our information comes from
- Clinics' own websites — names, addresses, phone numbers, specialties, and booking links.
- Public professional profiles — hospital, university, and practice bio pages.
- CDC and SART reports — to confirm a clinic reports its data and to cross-check locations.
How we check it
- We open the clinic's website and the doctor's public profile and compare the details ourselves.
- We record the date we checked each listing, shown as “Checked against the clinic's website” with that date.
- We keep the sources we used, listed on every clinic and doctor page.
What we leave out
- Success rates. We don't publish them. For reported IVF outcomes, we link you to SART.org.
- Shaky ratings. We hide ratings with fewer than 10 reviews, and we don't show ratings from sources whose licensing we haven't confirmed.
- “SART member / not a member” claims. We only show a SART-reporting badge when it's confirmed; we never state the negative, because that data can be out of date.
- Unverified photos and internal notes. We use an initials avatar unless a clinic-hosted photo is confirmed, and our research notes are never published.
No superlatives, no ranking
You won't see “best” or “top” in our listings, and no clinic can pay to rank higher. We order results to help you scan, not to sell.
How corrections work
If a listing is wrong or out of date, send us a correction with a link we can verify. We re-check against the source and update the listing, and we note when we did.
A note on medical information
IVFDirectory is an information directory, not a medical provider. Nothing here is medical advice. Always talk with a qualified clinician about your care. Details can change — check with the clinic directly before you rely on them.
