About

Mount Sinai Fertility is one of Toronto's longest-running fertility clinics, operating across the Greater Toronto Area from a downtown Toronto flagship at 250 Dundas Street West, plus satellite monitoring sites in Vaughan and Mississauga. Part of Sinai Health and academically affiliated with the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute and the University of Toronto, the clinic combines hospital-grade infrastructure with a broad menu of fertility treatments — IVF, IUI, ICSI, egg freezing, embryo freezing, frozen embryo transfer, pre-implantation genetic testing, medically indicated fertility preservation, and third-party reproduction including donor sperm, donor eggs, and known gestational carrier arrangements. Mount Sinai Fertility is an Ontario Fertility Program (OFP) partner, offering publicly funded IVF cycles and unlimited funded IUI for eligible patients, with a current funded-IVF wait time of roughly 6 to 7 months and no waitlist for self-pay treatment.

Pricing is published openly on the clinic site, with self-pay IVF starting around $13,730 and egg freezing around $10,480 (excluding medications), plus loyalty discounts for patients pursuing multiple cycles. Care is delivered by eight Royal College-certified Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility specialists alongside nurse practitioners, genetic counsellors, and an in-house social worker, and the clinic is openly inclusive — its 2SLGBTQI+ Care Advisory Committee has shaped intake practices since 2016, and reciprocal IVF and trans fertility preservation are explicit pathways. Recent research milestones include leading Canada's first ovarian tissue transport case, published in CMAJ in November 2025.
