At least that is my understanding of it.

They are apparently one of the best in North America, and we are fortunate to have it right here.
Interesting! I guess my knowledge of public vs. private health care is a bit fuzzy and I never thought that RFP would be considered private. Good to know, thanks. Oh man, I'm so happy that I'm here in Calgary and not in some of the other provinces - RFP has such a great reputation and success rate. The stories I've heard coming out of Manitoba and Ontario just make me so sad sometimes. Especially Manitoba where they have nowhere else to go. I haven't made the step to IVF yet, but I sure am happy that if I do decide to do this, I have a great clinic to cycle in.
