Creighton Model Services
This department offers fertility care services to help you avoid or achieve pregnancy naturally without chemicals or devices. NaProTechnology® can assist in diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic abnormalities and is also a helpful tool in infertility diagnosis and treatment.

How it works
This is a safe, reliable effective and inexpensive method to plan your family. After an introductory session, you attend private follow-up sessions. Nurses who are Fertility Care Practitioners provide these Creighton Model services to women and couples. Certification for Practitioners is achieved through the American Academy of Fertility Care Professionals.

Besides learning days of fertility and infertility, NaProTechnology will help identify signs of reproductive disorders that can be diagnosed and managed through physician referral. Unusual medical symptoms identified are referred to your physician. In addition, couples report a fuller understanding of their sexuality and relationship through the use of this system.

Format of the program: Introductory Sessions are scheduled once a week and Follow-ups are scheduled typically at the following increments beginning immediately after the Introductory Session (2,4,6,8,12 weeks, and 6, 9, and 12 months)

Program fees:

  • Introductory Session: $30
  • Private Introductory Session: $40
  • Initial Fee: $410
    This fee applies to all services within the first year and will include at least eight follow-ups, plus all materials. (This fee does not include the Introductory Session)

Several insurance providers reimburse to varying degrees. No one is refused service because of an inability to pay the fees.
