Our Bovine Embryo Transfer division is certified by the American Embryo Transfer Association and is part of our Large Animal Hospital, Country Health Large Animal Veterinary Services. Dr. Troy Pickerel is in charge of the division and personally oversees all the Donors and recipients. We have 3 facilities which include our main office in Athens, our recipient farm in Ila and our Donor housing facility in Danielsville. All 3 sites are within 15 minutes drive time of each other.
We offer all the basic Embryo Transfer services such as on the farm flushing and freezing of embryos as well as transfers of both fresh and frozen embryos. We also are set up to perform embryo splitting as well (performed at our facility). As a veterinary facility we are setup to handle the special needs of both problem Donors and individual Donors that require further treatment. We extensively use Ultrasound exams to improve our clients success rates by monitoring follicular wave dynamics of donors before Embryo Transfer/Superovulation protocols are initiated and by examinig potential recipient candidates prior to transfer. We also offer Ultrasound fetal sexing services as well as routine pregnancy diagnoses.
