"
Dr. Gad Lavy, medical director of the New England Fertility Institute, which has offices in Stamford, Hamden and Shelton, appeared in a number of scenes of this 2009 film, as director Zippi Brand Frank explored the economics, logistics and ethics of in vitro treatments and surrogacy. In particular, the director turned her attention to the opportunities globalization is presenting to couples seeking a more affordable process of creating a baby. The film shows the journey embryos make to a clinic in India where Indian women are impregnated, with the hope they will soon start carrying a baby with which they have no genetic connection. Since 1991, Lavy and his team at the institute have worked with those hoping to start a family by providing various services, including gestational surrogacy, which uses in vitro fertilization to implant an embryo into a surrogate who can carry and deliver the baby safely for its biological parents or parent. ..."
