For fertility clinics, reliable IVF courier services are critical to the success of IVF treatments. A single delay or mishandling incident during transport can jeopardize the viability of eggs, sperm, or embryos, leading to emotional and financial stress for patients. This is why many clinics turn to trusted IVF courier companies like LifeParcel, which have built a reputation for reliability and excellence.
As an embryologist-owned transport company serving 150+ fertility clinics across 32 countries, we understand the operational pressures clinics face. Our partnership model is designed to extend your standard of care beyond your lab walls, ensuring that transport becomes a seamless extension of your patient care protocols.
The costs of unreliable IVF courier services
Poor transport services don’t just risk material viability—they create operational headaches that cascade throughout your practice:
Staff time drain: Your embryologists and coordinators spend hours managing logistics, documentation, and patient communication that should be handled by your transport provider.
Patient anxiety: Delayed shipments and poor communication create stressed patients who call your clinic for updates you don’t have.
Treatment delays: Transport failures can derail carefully timed cycles, forcing patients to restart protocols and extending treatment timelines.
Compliance concerns: Inadequate documentation or protocol violations by transport providers can expose your practice to regulatory issues.
What embryologist-led IVF courier services mean for your clinic
Our founder, Dr. Aharon Peretz, built LifeParcel because he experienced these frustrations firsthand as a practicing embryologist. This scientific background shapes every aspect of our IVF courier services:
Clinical protocol alignment
We understand your lab standards because we’ve worked in labs. Our handling protocols mirror what you’d expect from your own staff, ensuring consistency from your facility to the destination.
Meaningful communication
When issues arise, you’re speaking with someone who understands the clinical implications, not a call center representative reading from a script.
Evidence-based procedures
Our protocols are built on scientific understanding of what affects material viability, not just logistics convenience.

Your patients — and clinic — deserve the best
Fertility treatment represents one of the most significant investments patients make—emotionally, financially, and medically. Every aspect of their care should reflect the highest standards, including transport logistics.
Our embryologist-led approach ensures that the same scientific rigor and patient care philosophy that drives your practice extends throughout the transport process. Because when you’ve worked so hard to create viable embryos or preserve precious gametes, settling for anything less than expert IVF courier services simply doesn’t make sense.
