Guided by Ethics, Built for Patients
At Sunfish, everything we do is grounded in one principle: do right by the patient. Because we’ve been in your shoes - and we know this is hard. Our Medical Advisory Board plays a critical role in helping us uphold this high standard. This group of experienced physicians and reproductive health experts advise on some of the below:
Ensuring we always put patient health and experience first
Designing our all-inclusive treatment packages
Improving our predictive model and technology
Designing and reviewing our evidence-based guides

Selecting Top Providers, with Patients in Mind
Our Medical Advisory Board helps us evaluate clinics and other partners based on outcomes data, clinical practices, patient satisfaction and compassion, as well as a number of other factors. When it comes to our partners, we hold a high bar. We welcome feedback, as we are continually re-evaluating our criteria and learning.
We are also proud to share that for every service included in the Sunfish IVF Success Program—from clinics to vitamins to therapists—we never take a referral fee. Instead, we find and negotiate the best discounts available, and pass savings directly to our patients.
Our advisory board members are practicing physicians, fertility experts, and leaders in reproductive health who meet regularly with our team to anchor our commitment to medical excellence. For us, “patient-first” isn’t a slogan—it’s a requirement.
The time is now to improve access to assisted reproductive technologies for patients. Sunfish is not only doing just that — but also pushing the industry to focus on better outcomes.
