Brought to you by the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR) on the Upper East Side of New York City. With over 40 years of experience and a history of innovation, CHR has been at the forefront of fertility care since the beginning. 

Our founder, Dr. Norbert Gleicher, performed the first successful transvaginal egg retrieval in human history, helping to shape the future of IVF as we know it today. CHR is known for tackling some of the most challenging fertility cases—especially women over 40 and those with diminished ovarian reserve—by offering highly individualized, evidence-based care when others often turn patients away.

Our team has published more than 450 peer-reviewed research papers advancing reproductive medicine, reflecting our deep commitment not only to patient care but to the science that drives better outcomes. At CHR, you're never just a number. You're part of a community focused on giving you the personalized support, science, and hope you deserve.

I really appreciate Dr. Gleicher for not dismissing me because of my age. I have more hope for our family building working with his team.

The best in vitro clinics are not only professional, they also treat you as if you were part of the family. I have my 6-year-old daughter thanks to that great team.

Dr Gleicher and Dr Barad changed our lives! After many failed ivf attempts and miscarriages from natural conceptions, I booked a call with Dr Gleicher as his YouTube on being hypoallergenic and thyroid issues can cause miscarriage. He correctly diagnosed me on the phone and then confirmed with blood tests I have an autoimmune disorder (ANA positive) and need steroids the first trimester. He implanted 2 embryos (created when I was 43/44 and at age 47 I got pregnant!) I have a healthy 3 year old now. I only wish I would have talked to him earlier. Dr Barad did the implantation and has a great technique, this is art and science! I can’t thank them enough!

Our daughter had her first birthday on February 6th. She’s extremely smart, and super sweet. She brings us so much joy, and we can never adequately thank Dr. Barad enough for all his help to make it possible!
