"It was important to us to work with a doctor and clinic that really embraces the LGBTQ+ community, and it was immediately clear that the entire Illume Fertility team truly derives joy from helping us grow our families."

"The referral originally came from our doctor, but we felt even more confident because we had close friends who were working with Illume; they spoke so highly of the care and support that they received from everyone they interacted with."

Taylor & Holly

"In the next few years, we hope to undergo another surrogacy journey. For us, there is no other choice but to return to Dr. Leondires and Illume Fertility when that time comes."

Keith & Kevin

"The whole process of our fertility treatments at Illume Fertility was so incredible, and we have recommended the practice to all of our LGBTQ+ friends."
