Why RMA Los Angeles is the Best Fertility Clinic in Southern California

When you’re searching for the best fertility clinic in Los Angeles, you need a center that combines innovative science, high success rates, and a deep commitment to personalized, compassionate care.

Our reputation is built on a foundation of cutting-edge research, consistently strong patient outcomes, and a team dedicated to helping you achieve your family-building goals. This guide explains why RMA Los Angeles is a great choice for aspiring parents looking for a top-notch fertility center.

A Record of High Success Rates

At RMA Los Angeles, our focus is on helping you achieve a healthy pregnancy. While success rates can vary based on individual factors like age and medical history, RMA clinics nationally are known for outcomes that often exceed the national average reported by the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART).

For women under 35 using their own eggs, RMA Southern California has an impressive in vitro fertilization (IVF) success rate of 81% (13 out of 16 patients achieving pregnancy in a recent cohort). This success is driven by our state-of-the-art embryology laboratory and our commitment to using the most effective scientific protocols.

Leadership in Fertility Research and Technology

RMA Los Angeles is part of a network that is the world’s #1 investor in fertility research. This dedication to science ensures you receive quality care informed by the latest breakthroughs in reproductive medicine. Our extensive research leads to significant advancements, allowing our fertility specialists to offer the most effective fertility treatments, including:

• Single embryo transfer (SET): The standard of care for IVF treatment today is transferring one single, healthy embryo at a time. This approach minimizes the risks associated with multiple births (twins or triplets), such as pre-term delivery and NICU stays. Our doctors routinely perform single-embryo transfers to ensure the best possible outcome.
• Comprehensive chromosome screening (CCS/PGT-A): This genetic testing technology allows our embryologists to screen embryos for chromosomal abnormalities before the embryo transfer. Selecting a chromosomally normal embryo increases the chances of implantation and reduces the risk of miscarriage. Choosing a clinic that offers this test is important.
• Blastocyst biopsy: To perform CCS, a small sample of cells is needed from the embryo. RMA exclusively performs biopsies on embryos that have reached the blastocyst stage (day 5 or 6 of development). This cutting-edge technique is considered safer for the embryo and provides more accurate genetic information compared to older methods.

Our clinic also actively participates in IVF clinical trials, giving Los Angeles patients like you access to innovative research studies aimed at improving outcomes for conditions such as diminished ovarian reserve, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Our Team of Leading Los Angeles Fertility Specialists

The heart of RMA Los Angeles is our team of dedicated and highly experienced fertility doctors. Our physicians combine scientific expertise with a genuinely compassionate approach to patient care.

Thomas Kim, MD

Thomas J. Kim, MD, FACOG, is a founding partner of RMA Southern California and a renowned reproductive endocrinologist. Born and raised in Seoul, South Korea, Dr. Kim is one of the only practicing Korean-speaking fertility doctors in Los Angeles. He has served the Korean medical community in LA for over a decade, helping hundreds of patients build their families. Dr. Kim believes deeply in the importance of clear communication and trust. “Being able to speak the same language and communicate effectively makes all the difference,” Dr. Kim says. “I like to make sure all my patients are well-informed about their options.”

Melanie Landay, MD

Melanie F. Landay, MD, FACOG, is a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist whose passion for fertility care comes from her own personal experiences. After facing reproductive health challenges in her 20s and later supporting a close friend through IVF, she knew specializing in fertility was her calling. Dr. Landay completed her fellowship at the University of Southern California (USC) and ran her own practice for 10 years before joining RMA. “I feel so grateful that this is the profession I’ve chosen, and it is a privilege that I have the opportunity to help so many wonderful people realize their dreams of having a family,” Dr. Landay says.

A Foundation of Patient Safety

Patient safety is a top priority at RMA Los Angeles. As part of IVI RMA North America, we are the first and only reproductive health organization in the country to hold a national Patient Safety Organization (PSO) designation from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). This commitment means we actively participate in system-wide initiatives to continuously improve safety protocols and the quality of care in fertility treatment.

Comprehensive Fertility Services in Los Angeles

At RMA Los Angeles, you’ll find a full range of fertility services right here in our office. Our state-of-the-art facility includes an in-house embryology laboratory and surgical center, so your testing and treatments can happen conveniently in one place. After reviewing your medical history and completing necessary fertility testing, our team creates a personalized treatment plan for you.

• Female fertility testing: We conduct a thorough evaluation, including hormone tests (like AMH) and ultrasounds, to check your ovarian reserve, uterine health, and fallopian tubes.
• Male fertility testing: We provide semen analysis and other tests to diagnose male factor infertility.
• Ovulation induction (OI): This uses fertility medications to help your ovaries produce eggs.
• Intrauterine insemination (IUI): Often called artificial insemination, this procedure places sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation.
• In vitro fertilization (IVF): We offer advanced IVF protocols, including ICSI, where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg.
• Genetic testing (PGT): We can screen embryos for chromosomal abnormalities (PGT-A) or specific genetic conditions (PGT-M) before embryo transfer.
• Cryopreservation (egg freezing): Also known as fertility preservation, this allows you to freeze your eggs now for potential use later.
• Third-party reproduction: We help coordinate treatments using an egg donor, sperm donor, or gestational surrogacy for intended parents.
• LGBTQ+ family building: Our team provides inclusive, sensitive care and tailored family-building options for the LGBTQ+ community. The Human Rights Campaign also recognizes us for our commitment to LGBTQ+ healthcare equality.
