CT Fertility

CT Fertility, which also appears in records as Connecticut Fertility Associates, is a fertility practice rather than a surrogacy matching agency. It was founded in 1991 by Dr. Michael Doyle, a reproductive endocrinologist who served as its medical director, and it offered IVF alongside an in-house egg donation and gestational surrogacy program. For intended parents, a clinic of this kind handles the medical side of a surrogacy journey — treatment, embryo creation and transfer to a gestational carrier — which is distinct from the matching, case management and coordination work done by an agency.

The practice operated in Connecticut, with listings in Bridgeport and Trumbull, and a New York City office. Its LinkedIn company page describes it as a full-service IVF clinic with Connecticut and New York locations. Dr. Doyle received his medical degree from the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine in 1985 and is listed as affiliated with Stamford Hospital.

According to the clinic's own materials, its services were open to single people and to LGBTQ+ intended parents building families through egg donation and gestational surrogacy, in addition to patients pursuing IVF. The clinic published outcome figures in its press releases describing thousands of babies born through the practice since 1991.

Dr. Doyle retired from clinical practice in 2017, according to his own professional profile with Men Having Babies, and the fertility clinic directory FertilityIQ now lists the practice as closed. The business entity is recorded as dissolved. Some third-party clinic profiles for CT Fertility remain online. The practice is a separate organization from other Connecticut fertility programs with similar names or service areas.
