International Patients

Getting Started
Prior to your initial consultation
You can contact our clinic in order to setup a consultation with one of our physicians. Prior to that appointment, please send a copy of your current medical records so that our doctors can review your information prior to your consultation.Initial Consultation
Once we have received your medical records and an appointment has been set, physician consultations can be conducted via skype, over the phone, or in person. We want this visit to be as productive as possible for you, so we encourage all involved parties to be present during the consultation. After reviewing your history and provided medical records, an initial treatment plan can be put into place. If you plan to do an ovum donor cycle, you can choose one of our donors with our donor coordinators, Cortney Dalton and Shana Bennett. ICRM has approximately 100 in-house donors that have been hand selected. Cortney and Shana very much enjoy working with couples through this process and give their professional, personalized touch. They pride themselves on matching you with a donor that meets your desired characteristics. ICRM does not charge an ovum donor agency fee and our donors are pre-screened by medical professionals in order to optimize pregnancy results. If you plan to use a gestational carrier (GC), you can pick a GC with one of our local agencies. Idaho’s GC agencies (provide link) are much less expensive than agencies in larger cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York. Idaho’s clean, stress-free surroundings attract wholesome gestational carriers and promote an active, healthy pregnancy.Traveling to Boise
Even prior to your planned arrival to Boise, our staff can provide you with information on arranging local transportation and accommodations, in order ensure that you have a comfortable visit. Please contact our coordinators, Cortney Dalton and Shana Bennett. We work closely with several local hotels to get discounted rates for our patients.
Boise is a very accessible and welcoming city. ICRM is only 15 minutes from the Boise airport and is walking distance to downtown, nice hotels, wonderful restaurants and shops, and the Boise River and local parks.
If you are doing an IVF cycle, you can do your pre-cycle testing outside of Boise. This testing consists of lab work and saline sonogram. Your cycle plan will be coordinated months prior to starting medication. You can start your stimulation medication outside of Boise and arrive in Boise after 1 week of stimulation. Once you arrive in Boise, you will be there for approximately 11-15 days if you plan to transfer your embryos into your uterus. If you are using a gestational carrier, you can go home the day after your egg retrieval and will be in Boise approximately 6-10 days.
If you are doing an ovum donor/gestational carrier cycle, you will only need to be in Boise 1-2 days. At that time, sperm can be banked and FDA lab work can be done. You could also meet with our reproductive psychologist that time.
