STL Fertility Laboratory holds presitigous CAP Accreditation — Here’s Why It Matters

For over 20 years, our STL Fertility laboratory has held the prestigious CAP accreditation — a gold standard of excellence in clinical lab practices, awarded by the College of American Pathologists (CAP).

✨ What does this mean for you, our patients? In short: even more trust, safety, and accuracy in every step of your fertility journey.

What Is CAP Accreditation?

The College of American Pathologists (CAP) is the leading organization of board-certified pathologists, and its laboratory accreditation program is recognized as the most rigorous in the world. CAP inspectors review everything — from lab protocols and staff qualifications to equipment calibration and quality control procedures.

To become accredited, a lab must demonstrate the highest standards of accuracy, consistency, and patient safety.

Why It Matters in Fertility Care

When you're undergoing fertility treatment, so much depends on what happens behind the scenes — in the lab. From the careful handling of eggs, sperm, and embryos to the precise timing of procedures, the lab is the heart of every IVF cycle.

CAP accreditation means our laboratory:

✅ Meets (or exceeds) over 600 standards of quality and safety

✅ Is routinely inspected by experts in laboratory medicine

✅ Maintains meticulous documentation and validation processes

✅ Uses cutting-edge equipment that’s regularly tested and calibrated

✅ Has a team of highly trained professionals committed to continuous improvement

Simply put: you can trust that your care is in expert hands.
