About POMA Fertility
POMA Fertility describes itself as the only multi-provider, multi-location, privately owned fertility clinic in the Pacific Northwest. Its main campus is in Kirkland, Washington (12039 NE 128th St), with a satellite office in Bellingham. The name POMA comes from the pomegranate — its seeds have long been considered “seeds of fertility,” and that inspiration runs through the clinic’s branding and design.
The practice was founded in 2013 by Dr. Michael Opsahl, and Dr. Ronald Beesley has served as Medical Director since 2021. According to the clinic, the POMA team has worked together for 13 years and has helped more than 2,000 families build their families.
Per the SART 2023 Final report, POMA’s registration completed 1,059 cycles, with cumulative live birth rates of 63.0% for patients under 35 (national row 53.2%), 46.5% at ages 35-37 (39.9%) and 37.4% at ages 38-40 (26.2%). Those three bands sit above the SART 2023 national summary; the oldest band does not — POMA reports 7.1% for patients over 40 against a national 9.4%. Scope matters when reading those numbers: Kirkland and Bellingham file as one SART reporting unit, so the 1,059 cycles and every rate above describe both offices together rather than Kirkland alone. The clinic publishes its SART report link directly on its website and emphasizes transparent, personalized care rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Why Choose POMA Fertility
Only Multi-Location Private Fertility Clinic in the Pacific Northwest POMA brings together multiple physicians across two locations, giving patients access to collaborative specialist care with the convenience of Kirkland (main) and Bellingham (satellite) offices.
Success Rates Above the National Average Per the SART 2023 Final report, POMA’s cumulative live birth rates — 63.0% under 35, 46.5% at 35-37, 37.4% at 38-40 — exceed the national averages (53.2%/39.9%/26.2%).
Transparent Pricing with a Refund Program All cycle prices are published on the website, and the POMACare IVF Refund Program offers 30%-90% refund tiers based on medical history — reducing the financial risk of treatment with just a single initial cycle.
On-site Embryology Lab and Expert Team POMA operates an on-site embryology lab with liquid nitrogen storage, directed by an ABB-certified HCLD laboratory director. Patient reviews frequently highlight the clinic’s “expert embryology department.”
Military Family Friendly A 25% discount on qualifying self-pay cycle packages is offered to active or retired US military and reservists, along with an oncofertility discount for patients preserving fertility before cancer treatment.

The clinic’s site carries a second price set our extract does not resolve: its own pricing pages also list an IVF standard cycle at $14,200 (eCheck $13,800) and IVF Freeze All at $12,200 (eCheck $11,900). Whether that is Kirkland versus Bellingham pricing or two versions of the same page, our sources do not say, so treat the table above as one of two published sets.
POMACare Refund Program: standard IVF cycle $26,000 (eCheck $25,320), with 30%-90% refund tiers. Prices exclude diagnostic testing, outside lab fees, and medications. Financing is available through CapexMD and Future Family (rates from 0%, up to $50,000).
Patient Journey
- Initial Consultation: schedule a 45-minute in-person or virtual consultation with an experienced provider to discuss medical history, family-building goals, and treatment options. This is a “talking only” appointment.
- Diagnostic Testing: if you choose to proceed, the team schedules diagnostic testing — blood work and possibly ultrasound for women; blood work and semen analysis for men.
- Follow-up Consultation: after results are ready, a follow-up appointment reviews findings and recommended treatment.
- Personalized Treatment Plan: build a plan ranging from fertility preservation to advanced IVF-assisted reproduction.
- Financial Planning: the finance team walks through costs, insurance, and financing options (CapexMD / Future Family / POMACare refund program / military discount) during the consultation or treatment.
- Start Treatment: begin your cycle with monitoring, retrieval, and transfer as planned. Appointments can be scheduled online or by phone.
Local Legal Framework
Washington State is one of the more fertility-friendly states in the US. State law requires qualifying group insurance plans to cover infertility diagnosis and treatment (RCW 48.43 et al.), with some employer plans including IVF coverage. Egg and sperm donation are legal, and POMA operates its own egg bank with a public donor recruitment program. Gestational surrogacy is supported under Washington case law, and POMA explicitly supports patients using gestational carriers. LGBTQ+ family building is protected under Washington law, and POMA maintains a dedicated LGBTQIA+ services page. PGT-based family balancing is available in Washington, and POMA offers this service.
