RMA Southern California (RMA SoCal)

Reproductive endocrinology & IVF · Laguna Hills, CA

RMA Southern California reports to the CDC as one program covering 2 locations. The figures on this page are program-wide; each location's doctors are listed below.

RMA Southern California is the RMA Network's Orange County practice, with two offices: Laguna Hills (23141 Moulton Parkway, Suite 204), where its website places the embryology laboratory and surgery center, and Newport Beach (3333 W. Coast Highway, Suite 300) — formerly Reproductive Health & Wellness Center and Rise Fertility, both part of RMA since 2025. The CDC figures here are the Laguna Hills program's: in reporting year 2022, an estimated 17 of its 175 embryo transfers, about 9.7%, used a gestational carrier.

Total transfers (all egg sources, the CDC's denominator): 2021: 156 · 2022: 175

Volume estimate = the CDC's reported all-ages share of transfers that used a gestational carrier × the program's total transfers (the transfer count the CDC uses as that share's denominator). Where the CDC suppressed the all-ages share, the age-group shares are used instead and the tile says so.

Nearly all donor-egg transfers today are frozen embryo transfers — the embryo is frozen for genetic testing or scheduling whether the eggs were fresh or banked — so that is the figure to compare.

Questions about RMA SoCal

Does RMA Southern California do gestational carrier cycles, and how many?

Yes. The CDC's figures for the Laguna Hills program give an estimated 17 transfers with a gestational carrier in 2022 and 14 in 2021, out of 175 embryo transfers in 2022. That is about 9.7%, about twice the share across all U.S. clinics, which is about 5%.

Where is the IVF laboratory of RMA Southern California?

In Laguna Hills. The clinic's website says that advanced fertility testing, embryo genetic screening and treatments like IVF are done on-site there, under one roof, with in-house embryology labs and surgical centers. It does not say whether the Newport Beach office has a laboratory of its own.

Why does this page show the figures of Reproductive Health & Wellness Center?

Because the Laguna Hills office is that clinic: Reproductive Health & Wellness Center, founded by Marcus Rosencrantz, reported to the CDC under its own name through 2022 and joined RMA in 2025, as did Rise Fertility in Newport Beach. Rise Fertility is registered with the CDC too but sent no data for 2022, so the figures on this page are the Laguna Hills program's only.

Does RMA Southern California have Mandarin-speaking staff?

Its website names a Mandarin-speaking contact for Chinese-speaking patients, with a phone number and a WeChat account. The two doctors' biographies do not list languages other than English.

CDC datasets are published with a lag of several years, and the field has since seen many mergers, acquisitions and renamings. We update each clinic’s current name, network and offices from its own website as best we can, but details may be out of date (the CDC-registered name appears in the citation above). Clinics may request corrections at any time.
