Fertility Clinics in Ontario
With 71 fertility clinics spread across the province, Ontario leads Canada in reproductive healthcare access. From IVF and IUI to egg freezing and donor programs, clinics in Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, and beyond offer every major fertility treatment available today. Ontario residents may also qualify for one publicly funded IVF cycle through the Ontario Fertility Program, removing a significant financial barrier to starting or growing a family.
Ontario has more fertility clinics than any other province, and the Ontario Fertility Program funds one IVF cycle per patient per lifetime at participating clinics. The funded cycle covers the IVF procedure but not fertility medications, and wait times for a funded cycle can run from several months to over a year. Outside the program, a private IVF cycle typically costs $10,000 to $20,000 before medication. When comparing Ontario clinics, check whether they participate in the funding program, their funded-cycle wait time, the treatments offered, published success rates, and how far you will travel for monitoring visits.

Comparing fertility clinics in Ontario
Fertility care access can vary widely across Ontario, especially when clinics are concentrated in one or two cities. When comparing providers, look beyond distance and consider whether the clinic offers your treatment, whether referral is required, what wait time information is available, and whether provincial funding or tax credit rules may affect your costs.
Use the clinic cards above as a starting point, then review each profile for services, pricing signals, reviews, public funding notes, contact details, and nearby alternatives. Published clinic information can change, so confirm details directly with the clinic before booking or joining a waitlist.

Surrogacy Laws in Canada

Up to four intended parents can be named.
