"Fertility care is health care. Period.” 🙂‍↕️

A recent story from CTV News highlights the incredible journey of a Calgary couple who welcomed quadruplets after years of infertility and multiple IVF attempts.

David and Lola Oluwole welcomed two boys and two girls after transferring two embryos, both of which unexpectedly split. The babies were born prematurely at 29 weeks and spent up to 83 days in the NICU before coming home.

The story also shines a light on the realities many people face when accessing fertility treatment, including the significant financial and emotional challenges that can come with infertility and multiple IVF cycles.

As Dr. Prati Sharma (Prati A Sharma), President of the Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society, shared with CTV News:

“Fertility care is health care. Period. Let’s just put that on the table.”

She also noted that one in six Canadians will experience infertility in their lifetime, and that many patients may need more than one IVF cycle to achieve a live birth.

Quadruplet pregnancies following IVF are now uncommon, particularly with the increasing use of elective single embryo transfer. However, as Dr. Sharma explains, even a single embryo can occasionally split, and multiple pregnancies can carry increased risks, including prematurity.

This story is a powerful reminder of the complexities of fertility care, and the importance of making reproductive healthcare accessible to those who need it.

Read the full story by CTV News to learn more about the Oluwole family’s journey and the broader conversation around fertility care in Canada.

💬👨‍⚕️ We are proud to share that Dr. Ari Baratz was invited as expert faculty to present at the FOCUS (Fertility DialOgue Centred Upon ReSearch) program, sponsored by EMD Serono

The FOCUS program brings together experts to discuss emerging fertility research and its clinical implications, helping translate evidence into clinical practice.

Selected as a national clinical leader, Ari Y. Baratz led the discussion on Non-Conventional Methods in Ovarian Stimulation: Exploring DuoStim, Random-Start, and Luteal Phase Start Approaches.

Reflecting on the experience, Dr. Baratz shared:

"Thank-you EMD for the ongoing support of evidence-based discussions on Infertility research, study methods, results and helping the REI fellows draw conclusions that can be applied in the real-world setting. It was a pleasure to engage & mentor this cohort of future reproductive medicine specialists with the aid of a high-quality program like FOCUS and the EMD Serono team."

Congratulations, Dr. Baratz, for your continued dedication to advancing reproductive medicine through education, mentorship, and evidence-based care! 👏

🚧 Important Notice: College Street Construction Update

If you’re visiting our Downtown Toronto clinic, please be aware that construction in the College Street area will begin in late July 2026 and continue through December 2026.

The City of Toronto and TTC will be completing road, sewer, and track renewal work near our clinic, including areas around College Street, Carlton Street, and the Yonge Street & College Street intersection.

From insightful discussions to meaningful collaborations, ESHRE 2026 ESHRE was an incredible opportunity to learn, share, and help shape the future of reproductive medicine. We're proud to see our team contributing to the conversations driving fertility care forward.

This year, our team also presented research on topics helping advance reproductive genetics and embryo care:

🔬 Mitko Madjunkov presented research exploring the outcomes of transferring embryos with whole-chromosome versus segmental aneuploidies, helping inform clinical decision-making. "Ten years of multicenter registry data on embryo transfers with uniform whole-chromosome and segmental aneuploidies."

🔬 Rina Abramov shared research on the clinical implications of re-biopsying embryos with segmental abnormalities detected through PGT-A and when repeat testing may be beneficial. "To re-biopsy or not? Diagnostic and clinical implications of segmental abnormalities detected by PGT-A."

🔬 Sheila Yat Sze Kwok presented research investigating how mosaic embryos may naturally eliminate abnormal cells, providing new insights into embryo development. "Determinants of mosaic embryo developmental capacity: aneuploid clearance kinetics and HIF1A-modulated depletion."

🌍💙 We're excited to bring these insights back to our patients and continue advancing fertility care.

On July 5, Dr. Ari Baratz travelled to London, England, to represent Canada as invited faculty at the annual EMD Serono Fertility DUELS event.

This year's debates explored two timely topics in reproductive medicine:
🧬 Oocyte quality vs. quantity
🤖 The role of AI vs. humans in embryo assessment

More than 60 delegates attended, including CReATe's Dr. Clifford Librach, Dr. Mitko Madjunkov, Dr. Svetlana Madjunkova, Dr. Prati Sharma, and Dr. Justin Tan, joining leading experts for an afternoon of insightful discussion and knowledge sharing. They were part of the spirited debate and expert exchanges of Dr. Baratz & his co-faculty.

Reflecting on the experience, Dr. Baratz shared:
"I felt honoured to represent CReATe and Canada at this year's DUELS event. A special thank you to the entire EMD Serono team for their ongoing support of our staff and for advancing fertility-based education and knowledge translation activities year after year."

We're proud to see our physicians contributing to conversations that continue to shape the future of reproductive medicine.
