Best IVF Clinics in San Francisco Bay Area (2026)

Choosing an IVF clinic is a big decision, and success rates are one of the few things you can compare objectively. We ranked the 17 fertility clinics within about 45 miles of San Francisco Bay Area that report enough IVF cycles to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), using the latest official data (2022 cycles, published December 2024). Together, the 21 reporting clinics in the area performed 25,998 IVF cycles that year.

Rankings are based only on CDC data: the percentage of intended egg retrievals that led to a live birth, adjusted for patient age so clinics treating older patients are not penalised. The US average on this measure is 32.3%.

Does insurance cover IVF in California?

California requires fully insured large-group health plans to cover IVF from January 2026 (SB 729), including for same-sex couples and single people. Smaller and self-funded plans may not be included. State laws do not apply to self-funded employer plans, so always check your own policy or ask your HR team. (Insurance information last reviewed November 2026.)

How to use these rankings

Success rates are a useful starting point, but they are not the whole picture. A clinic’s results depend on its patients’ ages and diagnoses, and clinics that treat more complex cases may show lower rates. When you speak to clinics, ask about their most recent results for patients like you, what an IVF cycle costs in total, how often you will need monitoring appointments, and whether you will see the same doctor throughout.
