Fertility rates of our modern world are declining with every year that passes. In fact, research from Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York predicts that 49% of couples will require fertility assistance to get pregnant by 2045.

We see a different possibility.

Many other fertility options focus on getting you pregnant, but don’t help ensure the health of your pregnancy or your child. Our goal is not just to get you pregnant, but to keep you pregnant and help create generational health within your family. We partner with you and your significant other to create a preconception plan capable of generational health utilizing the Schaefer Protocol. The Schaefer Protocol is an epigenetic lifestyle program that helps you get to your healthiest so that you can have the best chances at a beautiful pregnancy and radiantly healthy children.  

We focus on getting you and your partner healthy first, because we know that pregnancy is a result of good health. We get different results because we ask different questions. We have a different perspective. Although it’s common to struggle with infertility, morning sickness, pain and traumatic births, it’s not normal. You have the chance to change your outcomes before you’re even pregnant. What if you could thrive and actually enjoy your pregnancy and postpartum journey? What if you could prevent potential health issues in your children by taking care of your health first? These are possible. We can help.

 FAQs

  • The goal of preconception care is to have the healthiest sperm and egg possible for a healthy pregnancy. It takes a woman’s eggs approximately 120 days to mature. It takes approximately 60 days for a man’s sperm to turnover, so there are two cycles of new sperm in that time.

    We recommend that couples begin preconception care at least 120 days before they are ready to grow their family to give the healthiest outcomes possible.

  • Yes! Whether you have struggled to conceive or with loss for a while or you are in the beginning of your fertility journey, we are here to help! This program focuses on getting both partners healthy first which can help couples conceive naturally.

  • No! This program is designed to create healthy humans regardless of where you are on your fertility journey. This program is also great for those who have naturally conceived children before, but just want a healthier pregnancy and better postpartum recovery this time around.

  • Preconception is a shared journey. It takes 2 to make a baby so if only one side of the equation is doing the work, you’re not going to see the same results. Did you know that the DNA of the man’s sperm is what helps build the placenta, which can impact morning sickness during pregnancy? Dad’s health prior to conception can also decrease the risk of loss and other complications. Couples must go through the program together.

  • The first step is to schedule a 15 minute complimentary consultation with us. You and your partner will meet with Dr. Summer via Zoom to decide if you are a good fit for the program. From there we will schedule your first visit at our office and start your journey!
