I urge all potential egg donors, fertility professionals and Intended Parents to not proceed with this institution. As someone involved in the fertility space, I have experienced firsthand serious concerns with this practice. Egg donors have reported not being paid more than 100 of them, for their time and commitment, and fertility professionals have been left without compensation for services rendered. There are also troubling reports of bills being placed under donors’ names, leading to collection notices—an extremely unethical and damaging practice. In my opinion, this clinic has operated irresponsibly and unethically. The recent name change from Lane Fertility Institute to Conceptions Fertility appears to be an attempt to distance the practice from previous financial and legal issues, including outstanding debts and lawsuits. Please protect yourself—do not donate or do business with this clinic. Promises may be made, but follow-through is unreliable, and communication becomes nonexistent when issues arise. Egg donors, fertility professionals and Intended Parents deserve transparency, respect, and integrity. Sadly, that has not been the experience here. PLEASE GO TO ANOTHER CLINIC.

Do not fall into the trap — they are scammers. They offer you $5,000 in compensation, but they never pay you. They claim you’ll receive the payment within 90 days, but it’s all part of the scam. The fraud starts from the beginning. Egg donation compensation should always be paid on the same day as the retrieval. A SeedTrust account — a secure trust — should be opened from day one of the process to protect your payment. But they don’t do that, because they never intend to pay you. Don’t fall for the game. They keep all the money. Danielle Lane receives the funds for your egg collection, but she never sends you the compensation. After the 90 days pass, they ignore you completely — no calls, no emails, no responses to text messages. Please don’t fall for it. I went through this myself. I donated on January 9th of this year, and I still haven’t been paid. I have not received a single response to this day. They called themselves Lane Fertility Institute, but due to so many scams and complaints, they had a very bad reputation and were struggling to get donors. Now they’ve changed their name — but please don’t fall for it.

I was a donor when this clinic was called Lane Fertility. They promised me $5,000 in compensation and they haven't paid me. Now they are called "Conceptions Fertility", but they are the same, same place, same doctor. I already filed a complaint with ASRM and Public Health. If the same thing happened to you, write to me. DON'T DONATE HERE

Changed their name from Lane Fertility. Please check your State for the amount of lawsuits they have before letting them do anything to your body. If you choose to then do business with them, that's on you. You've been warned.

It's pathetic that they don't even deserve a star since they tell you that they will pay you after 90 days, when your contract expires, and they disappear and no longer respond to your emails.
