Expert-Led Fertility Services Designed For You

The path to parenthood deserves thoughtful support.

Fertility Testing

Our fertility testing process includes hormone evaluations, semen analysis, ovarian reserve testing, ultrasound imaging, and other diagnostic tools that help identify the root causes of infertility in both men and women.

Fertility Treatment

We offer a range of personalized fertility treatments, including ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI), and IVF. Each plan is designed with your goals, diagnosis, and timeline in mind, always backed by experience and empathy.

Weight Loss Management

Weight plays a powerful role in your fertility journey. If you’re trying to conceive, even small, healthy weight changes can significantly impact your cycle, ovulation, and reproductive health. Our weight loss program is here to guide you through this new chapter.

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

IVF remains one of the most effective treatment options in reproductive care. Each step of the process—egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo culture, and transfer—is managed with skill, compassion, and close monitoring.

Cryopreservation

Cryopreservation allows eggs, sperm, and embryos to be safely frozen and stored for future use. Using advanced TMRW fertility technology, we offer secure, long-term storage that supports your family-building goals.

Reproductive Surgery

For conditions like endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and tubal blockage, surgical intervention may open up new options for conception. We use minimally invasive techniques with a focus on protecting and enhancing fertility at every stage.

Bringing the Latest Proven Therapies to Alabama

Serving our community with advanced fertility expertise.

Growing a family is a shared journey, supported by a community surrounding you with care, expertise, and encouragement. Here, you’re never alone. You’re part of a circle that includes compassionate medical professionals, caring staff, and neighbors working together to bring new life and hope into the world.

The Doctor Who Has Walked This Road Himself

Meet Dr. Cecil Long—board-certified and personally connected to your journey.

Dr. Cecil Long brings more than three decades of expertise in reproductive medicine and a personal connection that runs even deeper. His daughter was born through IVF and ICSI, after he and his wife faced their own struggle with infertility. That experience has shaped the way he shows up for every patient: with empathy, honesty, and unwavering support.

As founder of the Alabama Center for Reproductive Medicine, Dr. Long created a space where individuals and couples feel truly seen. He knows the weight of each decision, the silence between appointments, and the hope carried into every treatment. His role isn’t just to provide care; it’s to stand beside you, every step of the way.

Why Patients Choose ACRM & Why You Might, Too

At our boutique fertility clinic, you’re more than a number on a chart or a case to solve—you’re a person, hoping for something deeply important. We believe fertility care should feel human. That’s why we take time to truly get to know you, walk beside you, and create a space that feels less clinical and more personal. You’ll always be met with real conversations, honest support, and a care plan designed with your life in mind.

We understand that fertility challenges affect both partners, and treating infertility as a shared experience is at the heart of our approach. Testing is done thoughtfully and simultaneously for you and your partner, so no one carries the burden alone. There is no minimum amount that you have to try conceiving on your own before seeking help. Reaching out early can open doors to answers and options you might not have expected.

  • Personalized, one-on-one care
  • Early intervention for both partners
  • Affordable IVF options
  • An empowering support team
  • No age restrictions for patients
