Ovation Fertility Grand Rapids Becomes Ovation’s Newest Lab Location
Ovation Fertility announces a new IVF and andrology laboratory location in Grand Rapids. A new partnership with The Fertility Center, a renowned fertility practice with a reproductive genomics program, also comes with this announcement.
Nashville, May 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ovation® Fertility has announced a new IVF and andrology laboratory location as part of its continued growth and expansion throughout the United States. Thanks to a combination of state-of-the-art equipment and utilization of best practices in assisted reproductive technology, Ovation Fertility Grand Rapids will allow Ovation to continue to bring the joy of parenthood through innovative science.
This new laboratory location also gives Ovation the opportunity to partner with The Fertility Center, a respected fertility practice that will allow Ovation to expand its presence in the Midwest, specifically in Western Michigan.
According to Ovation CEO Paul Kappelman, “The acquisition of Ovation Fertility Grand Rapids opens up a new market for Ovation, and allows us to further increase the scope of our already world-class reproductive lab offerings. Additionally, our partners at The Fertility Center can build on their current success and utilize Ovation’s best practices and approach to collaborative medicine to provide even better outcomes for patients.”
Valerie I. Shavell, M.D., shares Kappelman’s enthusiasm for the partnership. “We are delighted to partner with Ovation Fertility. Ovation’s differentiated business model allows our practice to maintain clinical autonomy while our patients benefit from best-in-class IVF lab services developed through the collaboration across Ovation’s network of scientists and physicians,” she explains.
Another exciting benefit of Ovation joining forces with The Fertility Center as part of the acquisition of Ovation Fertility Grand Rapids is Ovation’s enhanced ability to deliver advanced genetics services. “We will be expanding Ovation’s already exceptional genetics platform by partnering with The Fertility Center’s genomics team, which is renowned for work in this cutting-edge area of reproductive medicine,” Kappelman says.
Overseeing these developments and the daily work in the Ovation Fertility Grand Rapids lab is Ovation Laboratory Director Chelsey Leisinger. Leisinger also serves as the laboratory director for Ovation Fertility Lafayette and Ovation Fertility Baton Rouge, which she has done since earning her high-complexity clinical laboratory director certification (HCLD).
