Conceptia Fertility Clinic is open. However, the difficult decision to temporarily suspend services to individuals who are currently on the waitlist for their initial consultations (new clients) and to past clients who have not been in contact for > 12months (inactive) has occurred. This measure was required to address the backlog of patients who are undergoing investigations and/or preparing for treatment and/or undergoing treatment.
Clients who have had their initial consultation (within the last 12 months) who are undergoing investigations and/or preparing for treatment and/or undergoing treatment are not affected. These individuals are considered “active”.
As Conceptia continues to navigate through the various phases of the pandemic, our clinical capacity to offer fertility treatments also varies. This is for the safety of patients and staff and is required as we continue to follow Hospital protocols and Public Health guidelines. “Active” clients should seek clarification with us to discuss their situation specifically.
We would also like to reassure past clients who have cryopreserved materials (sperm, eggs or embryos) that everything is safe and shall remain this way.
We appreciate your understanding and patience as we focus on the backlog. We strive to address this issue as quick as possible to return to offering services to new clients.
The Conceptia Fertility Clinic is open during the Red Phase. However, we have to adjust and limit exposure to our clientele and employees.

Our Andrology services will be adjusted weekly to reflect our limited capacity.
***For increased safety at the clinic, full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be worn by the personnel who has direct contact with clients (eye protection, mask, gloves and gown). ***
***COVID-19 vaccines are becoming available to Canadians. The SOGC (The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada) has just released recommendations about vaccination, pregnancy and planning conception. The guidelines are also endorsed by the CFAS (Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society). Conceptia’s medical team has reviewed the guidelines and supports them in principle.

Hello,
In the past hours, we are getting many phone from people anxious about the status of the Conceptia clinic and the services offered during the Covid outbreak in the Moncton region.
We want to reassure all of you by saying that the clinic is open and treatments are ongoing as planned. We are always listening to the province`s health authorities and will adjust accordingly in the future if needed.
Although we are open, one measure has to be reinforced. No partners will be allowed at the clinic. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. Due to the pandemic, we have to limit the number of people entering the clinic.
We continue to offer virtual initial consults and teaching visits.
Thanks you,
The Conceptia Team
