Next Steps for Grace Fertility Patients  

If you are a current Grace Fertility patient but have not been seen at our clinic since September 1, 2024, you will need to get a re-referral and see one of our fertility specialists to become an active patient again. This will help prevent any delays when funding becomes available in July.  

If you are not yet a patient of Grace Fertility, please visit our How to Book page to learn more about becoming a patient.   

We know many patients are eager to learn more about the waitlist. 

Unfortunately, we have no further information from the BC Ministry of Health about how they want us to order patients when submitting their applications.

The Ministry has stated that they are developing a process for us to follow, and we will provide updates as soon as we know more.  

We will then reach out to those who qualify with the next steps.  

We are very pleased with this announcement and understand that this funding and information is very important to you.     

We will continue to share updates as soon as more information becomes available.
