IVF & Fertility Clinic in Carlsbad, CA

Many Carlsbad fertility clinics can handle basic fertility workups, but not every practice offers the same level of genetics expertise, continuity of care, or advanced case planning. At SCFC, we work with patients dealing with unexplained infertility, recurrent loss, age-related fertility decline, and hereditary concerns that often need a more customized strategy.

We also know logistics matter. North County schedules are packed, and no one wants unnecessary visits. Our team helps coordinate timing, cluster key appointments when possible, and use remote communication between visits so the process feels more efficient, not chaotic. If you are comparing fertility clinics in Carlsbad and trying to balance work, family, and treatment, that kind of planning support makes a real difference.

Infertility is more prevalent than most people think, with the World Health Organization estimating about 1 in 6 adults are affected globally, and ASRM’s updated definition of infertility reinforces inclusive access to care and earlier evaluation at age 35 and up.

Patients comparing IVF doctors in Carlsbad usually want the same thing: real expertise and a doctor who is personally involved in their care. At SCFC, Dr. Foyouzi’s extensive professional background helps us evaluate cases more thoroughly, especially when genetic risk, recurrent pregnancy loss, or failed cycles are part of the story.

Our approach is evidence-based and highly personalized. At our clinic, patients work with the same physician from evaluation through treatment and follow-up, which is a major difference from larger practices where care is often spread across multiple providers—or even clinics.

You can also review patient stories and testimonials that speak to the level of detail, communication, and continuity families receive here.

At our La Jolla clinic, we provide the full range of treatments for Carlsbad patients who want advanced treatment options in one place:

• IVF for patients who need a higher level of treatment, including more complex cases and individualized protocols.
• Egg freezing for people who want to preserve fertility and keep future family-building options open.
• IUI for patients who may be earlier in treatment or who are good candidates for a less invasive approach.
• LGBTQ+ fertility care for inclusive family-building pathways that reflect different goals, timelines, and clinical needs.
• Genetic and family planning services for couples and individuals who want to reduce hereditary risk and make informed decisions before treatment.

This is the part people stress about most, especially if they’re coming from another fertility center in Carlsbad and don’t want a “Been there, done that” approach. We keep it clear and structured:

• Initial consultation: You meet with Dr. Foyouzi, review your history, past testing, and goals, and talk through what’s already known versus what still needs to be clarified.
  
  
• Diagnostic workup: If testing is missing, we organize the next steps, which may include hormone labs, ultrasound, semen analysis, and other targeted testing. If you already did testing at another clinic, we can review those records first to avoid unnecessary repeat work.
  
  
• Personalized treatment plan: After results are in, Dr. Foyouzi maps out a plan with timing, priorities, and realistic options, whether that’s IUI, IVF, fertility preservation, or genetics-focused care.
  
  
• Treatment cycle and monitoring: We coordinate monitoring and procedures with clear instructions between visits, so you are not left guessing what happens next.
  
  
• Ongoing support: Our team stays in touch throughout the cycle, and Dr. Foyouzi remains directly involved, which is one reason many families leave larger, more impersonal Carlsbad fertility clinics and prefer this model.

Starting January 1, 2026, California Senate Bill 729 expands fertility coverage for many patients with employer-sponsored insurance. In practical terms, certain fully insured large-group plans are now required to cover infertility diagnosis and treatment, including IVF, and the law also uses a more inclusive definition of infertility that can apply to LGBTQ individuals and single intended parents. Our California IVF law update explains how this may apply to your situation.

The law has specific rules and not every plan qualifies, especially self-funded employer plans, so coverage details still need to be verified on a case-by-case basis. If you’re trying to understand benefits before starting treatment, we can help you review options and talk through financing and insurance resources when needed.
