With you every step of the way

Building your family, together

No matter where you are in your fertility journey, Carolina Conceptions shares the same goal you do: making your family a reality.

 

Whether you are in need of basic infertility therapies, like the majority of our patients, or require more advanced reproductive technologies, our four board certified infertility specialists are here to assist you every step of the way.

 

 

9,350 pregnancies & counting

Over 9,350 pregnancies later, we have outstanding success rates, consistently receive rave reviews from our patients, and are continuing to grow.  In 2016, we expanded care in Wilmington, Greenville, and Chapel Hill via physician consults to help minimize patient travel to our office in Raleigh.

 

Many patients are surprised to conceive with minimal intervention. Nearly half of our patients do not require IVF to get pregnant. For those who do require more advanced reproductive technologies, we can do it all.

 

Experience

Carolina Conceptions is one of the only private practice infertility clinics in the Triangle where every physician is board certified in both OB/GYN and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. Our doctors share more than 70 years of experience in the field of infertility, take a team approach to patient care, and are consistently ranked on the Best Doctors in America list.

Our high patient volume means we see some of the most difficult cases of infertility, and work together to achieve success. For IUI and IVF, experience of the lab also matters. Our embryologists not only perform the routine IUI and IVF procedures, they also frequently perform the most cutting edge procedures, such as egg freezing and blastocyst embryo biopsy.

 

Success rates

Carolina Conceptions consistently produces success rates that exceed the national average and are among the highest in the country. IVF success rates provide an objective measure of a fertility clinic’s success in achieving pregnancies, and are an essential aspect to consider when researching who to trust for fertility care.

We have helped thousands of patients realize their dream of parenthood. Our experience and innovation have led to some of the highest pregnancy rates in the country.

 

Innovation

Dedicated to staying on the leading edge of technology, the physicians and medical staff at Carolina Conceptions are required to attend conferences and earn continuing education credits each year to maintain their ever-expanding knowledge of the latest techniques in the world of assisted reproductive technology (ART).

For those patients in need of more advanced treatment, look no further for a clinic who can do it all. We offer state-of-the-art technologies such as preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) of blastocysts, and fertility preservation with egg and embryo freezing.  We also participate in clinical trials related to pharmaceuticals, new products for fertility treatments or new procedures that are part of treatment.  By doing so, we help advance the field of infertility treatment and we enable patients to participate in treatments at a significantly reduced cost as a study subject.

 

Compassion & availability

Carolina Conceptions realizes the importance of having friendly and accessible fertility physicians and staff. We know you are experiencing something very personal and emotional. We understand what you are going through. We do our best to provide a relaxed environment with kind staff members. You will never be just another patient at Carolina Conceptions. Our hope is that you not only build your family with us, but lasting relationships with our team as well.

 

We are accessible 7 days a week with an after hours physician on call every evening if an emergency ever arises. In addition, patients can contact their physician and care team directly on the patient portal to stay connected between appointments.

 

Carolina Conceptions is committed to giving you the best experience possible.

 

Let’s have a conversation

A fertility consult with a physician may sound intimidating. In reality, it is just a conversation. There is no physical exam at this appointment. Will you have to talk about your sex life? Yes. Will you have to talk about your menstrual cycle? Yes. Will you have to talk about eggs and sperm? Yes. Does it have to be embarrassing? No. Take a deep breath.

 

We understand what you’re going through. Fertility is what we do. Our physicians are personable, honest, and compassionate. They will help you find out why conception has been a challenge, and what solutions are available to help you build a family.

    我预约了Liz医生做子宫输卵管造影(HSG),非常感谢她亲切温柔的态度。Liz用非常舒缓的方式向我解释了整个过程。之后,她又用通俗易懂的方式详细解释了我的影像结果。

    我犹豫要不要写这篇评论,因为我通常不喜欢留下负面评价,但即使两年过去了,我在这家诊所的经历仍然让我感到很不舒服。 2024年4月,我在这里做了一个手术,过程中疼痛难忍。然而,我非但没有得到同情或安慰,反而感觉自己因为外貌而被评判。当时我疼得直皱眉,医生却说:“你有纹身,你能忍住。” 我完全明白他的意思,我震惊地发现,纹身竟然被用来轻视我的痛苦。 不幸的是,我在维克森林分院也遇到了类似的歧视。这次经历让我开始质疑,一些医护人员是否真的能够为那些外貌与他们不同的患者提供公正、体贴的医疗服务。 寻求生育治疗本身就是一段充满情感和脆弱的旅程。患者最不应该感受到的,就是被他们信任的、帮助他们组建家庭的人评判。任何人都不应因外貌上的刻板印象或臆测而被轻视或忽视。 正因为有了这些经历,我再也不会去这家诊所了。

    糟糕的收费方式和沟通。三年来,我们一直要求他们取消之前冻结的欠款。我们签署了他们要求的表格并寄出,但始终没有收到回复,他们仍然继续向我们收费,而且不接电话。我强烈建议大家避开这家公司。

    I was very satisfied with my experience at CC. My favorite nurse, Marie, has always taken excellent care of me. Dr. Johnson is highly skilled and very kind; she performed two surgeries for me. I am very grateful to this team for its support.
    May 23, 2026
    We saw several doctors at CC, including Dr. Johnson and Dr. Schointuch, and strongly recommend looking elsewhere. We are now at another clinic and can finally ask ourselves, “IVF clinics cannot all be like this...right?” Unfortunately, our experience at CC made my wife feel more like a transaction than a patient, with almost no compassionate care. Many interactions and decisions felt profit-driven rather than patient-centered. My most important advice is to advocate for yourself. Do not assume doctors always act in your best interests or know everything. Do your research, ask questions, and trust your instincts when something feels wrong. Our first doctor never asked about our lifestyle, goals, or even how many children we hoped to have; she immediately recommended IVF. Other doctors seemed impatient when my wife asked questions or expressed anxiety, despite the emotional sensitivity of infertility treatment. Communication was poor overall. We rarely saw the same doctor or nurse consistently and often felt passed between appointments. One of the most frustrating issues was being labeled with “unexplained infertility.” Infertility often has a cause that simply has not yet been found. It is estimated that up to 50% of infertile women have endometriosis, yet after 3 failed intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles and 3 failed in vitro fertilization (IVF) transfers, no doctor mentioned inflammation or endometriosis. After changing clinics, my wife was diagnosed with endometriosis, which was likely a major contributor to her miscarriage and implantation failures. We were also misled about PGT-A testing. My wife was 33. When we questioned the common recommendation against PGT-A for women under 35, the doctor merely replied that it would not affect our success rate and did not schedule a call. They failed to explain that the research refers to cumulative live birth rates across multiple embryo transfers, not the live birth rate per transfer. This distinction is crucial for women hoping to reduce failed transfers, medication use, emotional trauma, and costs. Aneuploid embryos have almost no chance of resulting in a healthy live birth. After the first miscarriage, we chose to test the remaining embryos and later discovered that the next embryo they had planned to transfer was also aneuploid. During that discussion, I specifically asked about cumulative live birth rates versus live birth rates per transfer, and the doctor was visibly impatient. She did not even look at me while I spoke and kept staring at my wife. We also specifically asked about the benefits and risks of testing but were never told that thawing, testing, and refreezing embryos could reduce embryo quality. This was another misleading omission that may have ruined our remaining embryos. Another painful experience occurred after my wife’s first transfer failed because there was no heartbeat. The doctor offered expectant management or medication to induce miscarriage. To proceed with another transfer sooner, she chose medication. Hours later, she was on the floor in the worst pain of her life. We were never told how severe the pain could be, and she was not prescribed pain medication. I could say much more, but these are facts we personally experienced. After multiple failed IUIs, a miscarriage, and failed IVF transfers, they conducted no meaningful investigation into the root cause. Their only proposal was another egg retrieval and transfer—no substantive change in strategy, no deeper testing, and no real effort to understand the failures. We deeply regret trusting them so completely. Even if we had ultimately had a baby through CC, I would still write this review because of how poorly we were treated throughout the process.
    May 23, 2026
    If I could give zero stars, I would. My husband has already written a detailed review, but I also want to share my experience. My husband and I were diagnosed with unexplained infertility at Carolina Conceptions, where we had 3 failed intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles and 3 failed in vitro fertilization (IVF) transfers, including a missed miscarriage. Looking back, I am very angry that so many issues were overlooked and we received so little guidance. We trusted the doctors to lead us in the right direction, but many important conversations never happened. We were never properly educated about embryo testing or told about the risks of thawing and retesting embryos. After every failed cycle, we were simply moved to another treatment instead of receiving deeper investigation. At our new clinic, we finally had Receptiva testing, which found that my BCL6 marker was positive, indicating inflammation/endometriosis. We had been labeled with “unexplained infertility” for years, and it is heartbreaking to think that no deeper testing was done before I endured so much physical and emotional stress. I will carry the emotional trauma this clinic caused for a long time. Infertility is painful enough without feeling dismissed, unheard, and emotionally unsupported throughout the process. Based on our experience, I would never recommend this clinic.

    Ashley at the front desk and scheduling department is amazing. She deserves the very best and a free cup of coffee!!!
    May 29, 2026
    This clinic is amazing!! Every visit is pleasant and relaxed. The staff and doctors are wonderful, and the atmosphere is friendly. Michelle and Lauren E. at the front desk make check-in easy and stress-free. They warmly greet every visitor with a kind smile and do their best to answer any question or meet any need. My nurse Jessica B patiently and thoroughly explained every process and answered all my questions. Finally, phlebotomist Sophia G was outstanding! She drew my blood patiently and carefully, minimized my discomfort, and clearly told me when to squeeze and release the blood collection device. I have been to places where staff barely speak to patients while working, but Sophia and everyone here are wonderful. Thank you for such excellent and efficient service.

    Toni is very kind, patient, a good listener, and extremely helpful. She does excellent work and deserves recognition.

    We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Park and her team at Carolina Conceptions!

    This was the second clinic we visited in the area, and its communication and scheduling were far better than elsewhere. Thanks to Dr. Meyer’s thoughtful plan for my infertility, we conceived our first and second IVF babies in December 2023 and January 2026, through one fresh and one frozen embryo transfer. He thoughtfully minimized medication and pursued pregnancy as naturally as possible, for which we are very grateful. Dr. Johnson and Dr. Park handled our transfer days and were also excellent. I would recommend this clinic to everyone!
    Apr 10, 2026
    I sincerely thank Dr. Johnson and the entire medical team for their help throughout my treatment. I greatly admire Dr. Johnson’s patience, close attention to my condition, and thoughtful response to every question. She listened carefully to my medical history and encouraged me. I will definitely recommend Dr. Johnson to all my friends. Thank you again for your tremendous support.

    Michelle is amazing!!
    Mar 7, 2026
    My second home! Our first IVF attempt succeeded, and my baby was born this year. Dr. Meyer is the best, and communication was never a problem! He responded to all my questions and emails, and I never waited more than a few hours. His confidence and expertise in this field are remarkable. If I want more children in the future, this will definitely be my first-choice medical team. I had the pleasure of speaking with all the doctors, and they were all wonderful. The nurses were always helpful, available, and incredibly kind. The front desk was consistently warm, courteous, fast, and efficient. Overall, it was an amazing experience. 😊 Thank you so much, Carolina Conceptions. You are the best!!

    Notice that all the one-star reviews have many likes, while the high ratings have few or none. The voices of people who are disappointed, dissatisfied, and frankly even hurt deserve to be heard more widely. Please also take time to read the one-star reviews and note the recurring complaints. My wife has already written her review, but I want to add one observation from my experience. Their office has a “wall of honor” covered with footprints from babies born after successful treatment. I spent months looking at that wall and considering what it meant. I now realize it has less to do with the footprints or the happy parents who write names beside them and more to do with the image Carolina Conceptions wants to project. These are their trophies, but in retrospect, they are not much of a trophy. During my time there, I saw only one family place footprints on the wall and take a photo with their doctor. I remember it clearly because the scene was somewhat overdone and made things even harder for the anxious and frustrated people in the waiting room. We are happy to share that we successfully conceived through UNC Fertility. They were far more professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and willing to provide guidance than Carolina Conceptions.
    Mar 13, 2026
    My overall experience at Carolina Conceptions was very pleasant, but Marie, one of the nurses, made me feel much more relaxed every time she appeared. She is an exceptionally positive person and truly made a major difference in my care. Thank you, Marie!

    Requiring payment by phone before the appointment felt profit-driven and uncomfortable. They also never answer the phone and seem more concerned about my wallet than me.
    Feb 24, 2026
    Dr. Park is wonderful! She is highly professional and knowledgeable. We went through a lot during a year of treatment, but our second IVF cycle succeeded and gave us our lovely son 🩵
    Feb 24, 2026
    5 stars, without question! I could write a novel about our truly amazing experience at Carolina Conceptions. My husband and I are so grateful to all the staff, especially Dr. Johnson, for helping us through infertility. We feel incredibly lucky and blessed to have found this clinic. We began with an egg retrieval in January 2025, had our first IVF transfer in April with a positive pregnancy test, and ended December 2025 with our baby girl. We cannot thank Carolina Conceptions enough. They are truly miracle workers and are all sweet, genuine, and caring. Thank you for helping us start our family as first-time parents. Highly recommended; we hope to return for our second child someday!

    Our experience at this Raleigh clinic was so disheartening that I feel I must warn others. Fertility treatments are stressful and expensive, yet this office treated our time and health with complete disregard. The Doctor & Scheduling: The level of unprofessionalism regarding appointments was staggering. The doctor completely missed two scheduled appointments without prior notice. At another appointment, the doctor arrived significantly late and did not apologize for the time we wasted waiting. Communication Breakdown: The medical coordination is a mess. We received conflicting instructions from the nurse and doctor. In a field where timing and dosage are critical, this negligence is dangerous and creates unnecessary anxiety. The Staff: The front desk staff were kind. However, the woman working in the back was curt and dismissive on several occasions. Asking a question seemed like an inconvenience to her. Bottom Line: Ultimately, this clinic felt like a "money mill." They request and process payments very quickly, but consistently fail to provide reliable care, show up for patients, or communicate clearly. If you want a clinic that cares about your journey and respects your time, look elsewhere.

    Dr. Bowling and her team at Carolina Conceptions have been exceptional! My husband and I have been with them for 3 years. Although this journey is extremely difficult in every way, Dr. Bowling and her team go out of their way to talk with you and listen to all your worries and concerns. Dr. Bowling never gave up, and we will always be grateful to her. We now have our precious baby boy, who is almost 7 months old! Never give up on yourself or your team at Carolina Conceptions. They truly care about helping your dreams of a family come true!

    Hoping to have a baby soon!!

    Carolina Conceptions provided an exceptional experience. The entire staff is incredibly kind and supportive. I highly recommend choosing this facility. We achieved success with our initial IVF treatment there, and we are thoroughly satisfied with the overall experience.
    Jan 15, 2026
    My wife and I had an excellent experience at Carolina Conceptions, especially with Dr. Johnson. The entire staff were warm and friendly, and we always felt safe and comfortable. We welcomed our daughter on Thanksgiving Day!
    Jan 20, 2026
    I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this fertility clinic, mainly because of poor communication and a lack of patient care. Calls went unanswered, messages were not returned promptly—or at all—and getting even a basic question answered was nearly impossible. Fertility treatment is already emotionally, physically, and financially stressful, and this level of disregard is completely unacceptable. You rarely see an actual doctor. Instead, you are rushed through with little explanation, no continuity, and no sense that anyone truly understands your case. Appointments felt hurried and impersonal, as though patients were products on an assembly line rather than people receiving genuine care. I never felt heard, supported, or informed. For a clinic dealing with such sensitive issues, I expected professionalism, clarity, and compassion. Unfortunately, this clinic provided none of these. I would not recommend this clinic to anyone who values communication and transparency or wants to be treated as a person rather than a number.

    We had a wonderful experience and feel incredibly fortunate and grateful for this precious gift.
    Jan 4, 2026
    Many thanks to Dr. Park and the entire team at Carolina Conceptions for helping us welcome our baby! My overall experience at this clinic was wonderful. The doctors truly cared about me and listened carefully to my concerns. They were willing to explore different tests and discuss various treatment options without pressuring us into any decision. We made our own informed decisions with guidance from knowledgeable, approachable doctors. The administrative staff were always warm and friendly, and the nurses were gentle, attentive, professional, and efficient. Highly recommended!
    Dec 1, 2025
    Dr. Bowling was very kind and patient and answered all our questions. She made sure we had all the information we needed and felt comfortable about the treatment ahead.
    Dec 2, 2025
    Forever grateful to Carolina Conceptions and the entire team. After five miscarriages, we finally had a successful pregnancy and welcomed our sweet twin boys. They were professional, warm, and compassionate. Highly recommended!

    We achieved the outcome we hoped for—a healthy baby—so I want to acknowledge that positive result first. However, future patients should know that although the physicians are highly skilled, the clinic’s operations, billing, scheduling, and communication systems need major improvement. I am writing this review to help future patients navigate the process more efficiently and encourage the clinic to strengthen its administration. I have tried to remain objective rather than emotional, but I want to emphasize that I have not recommended and would not recommend this clinic. 1. Arrange a second consultation early One of my most important lessons was this: if you think you may change clinics, schedule a consultation elsewhere before completing your first IVF cycle. Other clinics may have waiting lists of several months, and if you wait until a failed cycle, switching may no longer be practical. A mid-cycle second consultation can provide: • A parallel review of your treatment plan, time to transfer care if needed, and peace of mind. 2. Insurance and timing: maximizing benefits If you have infertility coverage, timing matters. Lifetime medication maximums are often lower than procedure maximums. Ordering medication in January, before meeting your deductible, may protect pharmacy benefits and let you strategically schedule several cycles in one benefit year. Ordering in December may cause you to meet the annual deductible twice. Waiting until midyear may leave time for only one cycle before benefits reset. This is not clinic-specific advice, only a financial-planning strategy that may help others. 3. Physician style and patient interaction Some physicians here are clinically excellent but communicate very directly and provide limited statistical analysis. Some patients may find this efficient; others may find it blunt or discouraging. Despite our repeated requests to complete as much testing as possible early, testing seemed unnecessarily delayed. An invasive procedure was even recommended and completed before the result of a simple blood test improved. Although patients are assigned a primary physician, the physician on duty handles monitoring and procedures. That is acceptable, but patients should be told what to expect. 4. Remote monitoring: avoid it Remote monitoring was the most difficult part of our experience. The clinic charges $400 per cycle to coordinate outside appointments. In practice, ‘scheduled’ appointments were often only referrals, lab orders were sent in batches rather than by date, and we repeatedly had to correct scheduling gaps. Despite paying the fee, we did most of the coordination ourselves. 5. Administrative and billing recommendations Billing, estimates, and claim submission need improvement. Problems included: • Repeatedly incorrect estimates, delayed callbacks, threats to cancel cycles before errors were reviewed, denied claims due to missing documents, attempted balance billing for in-network services, and refunds delayed until patients complained. These problems were pervasive and created significant instability during fertility treatment. Recommendations for the clinic: • Audit claim submissions. • Peer-review cost estimates before issuing them. • Create an internal feedback channel independent of public review platforms. Patients interact far more with administrative staff than physicians, so this area has the greatest effect on the clinical experience. The clinic is clearly growing. Expansion increases volume, which puts pressure on weak systems. Based on two years as a patient and my professional process-improvement experience, I strongly recommend redesigning the customer journey, analyzing billing workflows, conducting random patient-experience surveys, and training front-desk staff to communicate consistently.

    Carolina Conceptions—especially Dr. Bill Meyer—deserves our heartfelt thanks. From our first appointment, Dr. Meyer gave us unwavering support and clear guidance. He often said, ‘If you were my children, this is what I would recommend.’ That caring approach continued throughout our fertility journey. He remembered our names, never rushed us, and tailored every decision to our circumstances. The entire clinic was kind and meticulous. The front desk welcomed us like family, and the nurses were professional, gentle, and organized. Communication was always prompt and transparent; we knew what would happen next and why. Appointments started on time, and when we felt anxious, the team checked on us and patiently explained our options without pressure. Thanks to Dr. Meyer and everyone at Carolina Conceptions, our family has grown. We are deeply grateful.

    We had a wonderful experience at Carolina Conceptions. Everyone was very kind, from the front desk and laboratory staff to the nurses and doctors. We will always be grateful for our beautiful daughter!
    Nov 11, 2025
    Words cannot express our gratitude. We once thought we could not have children, and now we have a beautiful little girl whom we love beyond measure. Thank you to Dr. Meyer and everyone at Carolina Conceptions for all you did for us! If we could, we would give you ten stars!
    Nov 19, 2025
    Highly recommended. Dr. Park is an excellent physician who helped me have a beautiful baby boy.
    Nov 21, 2025
    I am over 40 and this was my first time seeking fertility assistance. Of all the clinics I contacted, Carolina Conceptions responded quickly and went above and beyond to help me. The staff were honest and professional from the beginning. They did everything possible to help me achieve pregnancy. I would recommend Carolina Conceptions to anyone seeking treatment. Special thanks to John Park and Karen Onori for making it possible.
    Nov 25, 2025
    Words cannot describe how wonderful this clinic is! From my consultation with Dr. Park to the financial department and follow-up care from nurse Liz Mooney, she was incredibly helpful. She played a vital role throughout my treatment, and we are deeply grateful for her kindness, thoughtfulness, and all the information she provided. She is very approachable, and you can truly feel how much she loves her work. Without question, this is the best clinic I have seen, with people who genuinely care about their patients!

    We are deeply grateful to Carolina Conceptions for helping us welcome two wonderful boys—one through IUI and one through IVF. From the beginning, the team was kind and knowledgeable and always ensured we understood every step. Everything was extremely well organized, especially scheduling, which was reassuring during a stressful journey. We always felt supported and cared for, and knowing we had such an excellent team mattered greatly. We will forever appreciate everything they did for our family.

    After years of struggling with infertility, we were physically and emotionally exhausted. In early 2025, we began IVF with Dr. Park at Carolina Conceptions. He and his entire staff made us feel welcome from the beginning. After only a few visits, the front desk remembered our names, even though I am sure they see many patients every day. We also thank the nurses and assistants in the back, who were always patient, understanding, and friendly. The treatment plan designed for us was perfect, and we appreciated every step. We thank Dr. Parks and his team for helping us complete our IVF plan. Yesterday, 9/12, we welcomed our beautiful daughter, and we will always be grateful to everyone who helped us along the way!

    From the very beginning when my wife and I walked in they made sure we were comfortable. They went out of their way to help us in any way possible. The staff is absolutely amazing. Karen is my absolute favorite person! She has such an amazing personality. She is very kind but she also is very true to her job . She handles every situation as delicate as possible. Everybody in the office is amazing. I have only great things to say about this business. I would highly recommend them . They are truly the best . I wouldn’t use anyone else to have a baby . They helped us create our beautiful baby boy . We even stopped by to have his foot print put on the wall with the rest of the babies they helped create. No matter what they treat you like family . I’ve never nothing short of a beautiful experience. I would highly recommend them !!

    My husband and I had been trying for a child for 2.5 years before we started looking for fertility help. We set up an appointment with Dr. Park and from that first meeting knew we were in good hands. Dr. Park clearly explained what type of testing would need to be done, and helped us through the least invasive options first before eventually moving on to IVF, which has successfully allowed us to be pregnant with our first child! Everyone, from the front desk to the nurses to the doctors at Carolina Conceptions have always been welcoming, encouraging, and answered any and all questions we had throughout the process. I wholeheartedly recommend Carolina Conceptions to anyone seeking help starting a family.
    Aug 15, 2025
    I have never canceled an appointment so quickly. When scheduling with Lauren, they requested my bank information, which immediately concerned me. This is not a pizza order; why need banking details before meeting me? After talking with family and reading reviews, I called back to cancel. A person named Ashley laughed twice when asking why. I will ask my provider for another clinic. This place is a joke. Do not go.
    Aug 20, 2025
    In short, book the appointment.\n\nLike many people, I felt overwhelmed at my first consultation and urgently needed attentive care and a plan.\n\nDr. Park provided that and more. He is a gifted physician at the forefront of best practice, supporting his judgment with research, skill, and precision. Arriving heartbroken and doubtful yet being able to trust a doctor completely is extraordinary. I felt that trust from the consultation onward, even before becoming pregnant.\n\nAfter three consecutive miscarriages, previous doctors said it was simply “bad luck” because I had previously carried a healthy child to term. Dr. Park worked to find the cause of my secondary infertility. It was a relief not to be dismissed.\n\nI felt care and affection from the entire CC staff and was surprisingly sad to leave for routine prenatal care. It was the best end-to-end care I have ever received.\n\nThank you to Dr. Park, Ashley, Delshaw, Lauren, Jamie, Toni, Logan, and everyone else for answering countless questions and providing the care, speed, and attention I needed.

    We are so grateful to everyone at Carolina Conception, especially Dr. Meyer! After a stressful, heartbreaking journey, we were welcomed warmly and optimistically. We previously had a terrible experience at Shady Grove Fertility, so Carolina Conception was a true relief. After one IUI cycle, we are now 13 weeks pregnant with our first baby. Highly recommend Carolina Conception!!!

    I finally conceived my baby boy after trying for six years! Dr. Park provided excellent, thorough care. The staff here are wonderful and kind. Considering the procedures, artificial insemination, and IVF involved, it was a great experience! I highly recommend Carolina Conceptions! My husband and I are extremely grateful for their care and for giving us our sweet miracle!

    I can’t say enough about Carolina Conceptions. The staff- from front office, to finance, to the nurses, phlebotomists, and of course Dr. Meyer- are all amazing. We would never have conceived and made it to the second trimester without them! We’d recommend them to anyone.

    The staff and doctors are wonderful and knowledgeable. They always answer questions and update the portal promptly! With their help, we had one successful birth and are now expecting another child!

    We highly recommend CC. After years of infertility, we conceived successfully last year and welcomed our miracle baby this month. Everyone at CC was helpful, kind, and understanding! Infertility is never easy, but working with such kind people during this difficult time in our lives was a true blessing.

    What else can I say but thank you, Carolina Conceptions! After a poor experience at another clinic in 2022, my husband and I nearly gave up hope of becoming parents. In 2024, we finally decided to try Carolina Conceptions because we knew many people who had succeeded there. Today we graduated from Carolina Conceptions at 7 weeks and 6 days pregnant with our IVF baby! We are so grateful to Dr. Bowling and everyone who cared for us. We will definitely return when it is time for a sibling! 🥰❤️

    After a five-year infertility journey, I am writing this while feeding my four-week-old daughter, all thanks to Carolina Conceptions. My husband and I cannot praise Dr. Johnson and all the medical staff/employees at Carolina Conceptions enough. We visited two other clinics in the Raleigh-Durham area on our path to parenthood, but neither experience compared. Thank you for making our dream of becoming parents come true!

    I am extremely grateful to Carolina Conceptions and Dr. Schointuch for helping me finally achieve my dream of parenthood after years of struggle with other fertility clinics. From day one, the staff were welcoming, professional, and supportive. They made me feel comfortable and encouraged at every step. The personalized care and attention I received gave me the confidence I needed during this emotional journey. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Schointuch and the entire team for making this dream a reality. I highly recommend Carolina Conceptions to anyone facing fertility challenges—they truly care and are exceptional at what they do!

    After 8 years of unsuccessful IUI and IVF treatments, we finally had our baby. Dr. Meyer and his team were very considerate and understanding throughout our journey. He is our miracle baby. Thank you for helping us realize our dream.

    I cannot say enough good things about Carolina Conceptions (CC)! My husband and I visited two other clinics in the Triangle and had acceptable experiences, but we were never fully satisfied. Those clinics offered only virtual appointments, and we felt disconnected from the treatment plan. At the last minute, before starting IVF at another clinic, we switched to CC, and we are so glad we did! We found Dr. Park, who may be my favorite doctor. Our initial consultation was in person, and he took time to discuss our concerns carefully and offer options. He was the first doctor we met who genuinely involved us in the treatment plan instead of simply telling us what the plan would be. His explanations were also excellent. During our first IVF cycle there, doctors rotated, and we ultimately met every doctor except one. Dr. Meyer was another favorite. I recall only one doctor whose personality did not suit me, but I think that was simply a personality mismatch. The nursing staff always answered our countless questions warmly and patiently, and the front desk and financial staff were excellent. We were also fortunate to succeed and are now pregnant! We know where we will go if we want another child in a few years. Thank you, Carolina Conceptions, for making a frightening and overwhelming situation less scary and turning what felt impossible into reality!

    We did like the care team and felt the consultation, testing, and process were thorough. We ultimately had a child successfully. However, the clinic's administration is absolutely terrible. We encountered endless problems, including poor communication, refused appointments, payment issues, and arbitrary policies. Unfortunately, our sperm is stored here, so we cannot change clinics.

    Thank you so much, Carolina Conceptions! Without them, we would not have our little miracle!

    I do not remember the name of the woman I just spoke with on the phone, but she was incredibly helpful. They do not accept Tricare, so I told her I was not interested, but she still gave me excellent advice and helped ease all my concerns. We need more customer service representatives like her!!

    This location is amazing! I highly recommend it. My wife and I never felt uncomfortable. Everyone from the front desk to the nurses was very patient and helpful. We had Dr. Schointuch, who was wonderful! They also communicated well with us through the portal. We drove 4 1/2 hours to see them, and we would do it again! We never had any problems, and now we have a beautiful baby girl!

    Carolina Conceptions has been an absolute blessing. After years of struggling with fertility issues, my husband and I decided to visit a clinic. We are so glad we chose Carolina Conceptions. From the moment we walked in, the staff was extremely kind and helpful. The nurses patiently answered all our questions. Dr. Bowling is amazing! She truly listened to our story and developed a plan. We began intrauterine insemination (IUI), and after our first cycle, we are now pregnant! Carolina Conceptions guides you step by step and is very responsive by phone and portal message. If you have been struggling with fertility and want somewhere to go, give Carolina Conceptions a chance. It is a wonderful place!

    Dr. Schointuch is unquestionably one of the best doctors we have worked with from start to finish. She is compassionate, attentive to all your questions and concerns, and forms a strong connection with patients. We will see her again in the future!! Carolina Conceptions was an excellent place for our journey! From the beginning, they communicated very well, were happy to help with financial concerns, and most importantly were extremely welcoming to LGBTQ families. During such intimate moments on the journey to parenthood, it was wonderful to be treated kindly and feel so well cared for.

    The staff are exceptionally caring and welcoming. Dr. Meyer is outstanding. He strikes an excellent balance between being factual and intuitive, which gave me confidence in his care. He listened carefully to all my concerns and addressed them thoughtfully. His kindness truly stood out and made the entire experience more comfortable. Highly recommended!

    Carolina Conceptions is a light in the darkness of infertility. The footprints on the baby wall give you hope by showing the families they have helped, while kind and dedicated staff welcome you at every step. Although you are assigned a specific doctor, you may rotate among all the doctors, and they are all excellent. They also have a highly effective portal messaging system. We had questions about everything from billing to embryos. Using the drop-down menu routes messages efficiently to the right person, and you typically receive a prompt response within 24 hours, if not sooner. Of all the medical offices I have visited, this clinic consistently had the shortest waiting-room times. Most of the time, your scheduled appointment time is approximately when you are seen. Only about twice did I wait longer than expected, and both times someone came out to update me and apologize. Thanks to Carolina Conceptions, I now have a healthy baby girl. I will always be grateful for the time and effort they invested in helping my family and me realize our dream. It may not be the easiest path, but having a doctor's office that felt like a true partner in our fertility struggle meant we knew we were not alone and received the support we needed through every small issue. In summary, I highly recommend Carolina Conceptions.

    I am extremely grateful to Carolina Conceptions. We were very fortunate to have Dr. Parks by our side, helping us welcome our sweet baby boy into the world on October 29, 2024.
    Jan 9, 2025
    Carolina Conceptions and Dr. Johnson are wonderful! Soon, we will welcome our baby girl into the world. We previously went to another clinic but were dissatisfied. Dr. Johnson thought outside the box and covered every aspect needed to make treatment work. We will always be grateful.
    Jan 9, 2025
    Our experience at Carolina Conceptions was wonderful. They were extremely thorough and made us feel comfortable. We worked with Dr. Meyer, who created an IVF protocol tailored to us. We welcomed our baby girl in November, and we highly recommend Carolina Conceptions to support your fertility journey.

    I remember walking into this office and doubting that I would ever see the tiny footprints of my own child. I spent several months in this waiting room experiencing intense emotions and sometimes feeling hopeless, but my faith reassured me that a higher power was guiding me. He placed me in the hands of the best doctors and staff. They went above and beyond in every way and responded quickly to every question or concern. We are now celebrating my sweet baby girl turning seven weeks old today. Thank you, Carolina Conceptions 🩵 If you are struggling with infertility, do not lose hope. Contact them—they care about every patient and support you throughout the journey.

    My husband and I had the best experience at Carolina Conceptions. From the front desk to the laboratory and providers, I cannot say enough good things. Our first IVF cycle was successful, and we are overjoyed. If you are looking for an excellent fertility clinic, this is the place. We welcomed our sweet baby on December 28, 2024, and we are completely in love. He is absolutely perfect.

    I cannot say enough great things about Carolina Conceptions. Dr. Bowling was amazing in our journey as well as the whole staff. I am now pregnant thanks to them!!! I had the absolute best experience.

    We had an absolutely amazing experience at Carolina Conceptions! The doctors and providers we worked with were wonderful. We worked closely with Karen Onori, who was very understanding and took time to truly know us. My wife and I felt seen and heard, and we thank Karen for that. Our experience with the front desk, every nurse, and the doctors—Dr. Meaghan Bowling and Dr. Monica Schointuch—was excellent. We are very grateful to the practice for making a stressful and sometimes difficult journey such a positive experience.

    We were extremely fortunate to work with Dr. Johnson and the entire Carolina Conceptions team. We began our fertility journey at another clinic and immediately felt transferring here was the right choice. The scheduling and front-desk teams were kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. Every provider was capable, professional, and personable. The clinic runs like a well-oiled machine and is highly efficient, yet I never felt rushed. Our first IVF transfer succeeded, and we are delighted! We absolutely recommend Carolina Conceptions for your family!
    Aug 22, 2024
    This is a baby farm. In other words, unless you want to use a surrogate to have a child, they will not treat you respectfully or professionally. I am disgusted by how they handled my experience. I had no problem with the staff; it was the doctors, or at least those I encountered. Absolutely terrible.

    Two years ago, we began our IVF journey, and today we are finally expecting our baby girl. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Bowling and her entire team for making our dream come true. Even when our first transfer failed, Carolina Conceptions provided exceptional care. Dr. Bowling consistently offered comfort and encouragement at every step. Heartfelt thanks to the nurses, front-desk staff, and billing department for making the experience possible and pleasant. We will always be grateful to every medical professional who supported us and to this amazing clinic!
