Leading Fertility Treatment Center Opens Minneapolis Clinic

MINNEAPOLIS, June 29, 2015 — CCRM Minneapolis, a partner clinic of the Colorado Center for Reproductive Medicine (“CCRM”), opens July 1, 2015. The clinic was created through a partnership between Dr. William Schoolcraft and Dr. April Batcheller.

Founded in 1987 by Dr. Schoolcraft, CCRM is one of the nation’s leading fertility treatment centers. Dr. Schoolcraft and his staff achieve some of the highest pregnancy rates in the country. In fact, CCRM has pioneered many of the advances that have helped shape reproductive medicine today.

“We found there’s a real need for our services in Minnesota, as we have many families who travel to Colorado from the Midwest because of CCRM’s reputation and success,” said Dr. Schoolcraft. “The new, state-of-the-art clinic is set up the same way as our Colorado centers, and more importantly, the entire team received extensive training in Colorado and in Minnesota to replicate the same level of results-based science, service and patient success for patients in Minnesota.”

CCRM Minneapolis is an all-inclusive center with an on-site clinic, surgery center, IVF laboratory and clinical laboratory. New appointments are exceeding expectations in anticipation of the July 1 opening.

“I am passionate about the rapid advancements being made within fertility sciences, and our partnership with CCRM will allow our patients from across the region to benefit from a center with the highest success rates in the industry and groundbreaking research in fertility medicine,” said Dr. Batcheller.

“CCRM Minneapolis will give families the opportunity to have access to a best-in-class fertility treatment center,” said Linda Carson, M.D., chair of the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women’s Health at the University of Minnesota. “In addition, Dr. Batcheller and her team will be working with physician residents from the University for six-week rotations, where the students will learn at this center of excellence.”

CCRM Minneapolis is located at 6565 France Avenue South, Suite 400 in Edina, adjacent to Fairview Southdale Hospital.
