Westwood Cryobank is a continuation of the cryobank of The Tyler Medical Clinic in Westwood. The Tyler Medical Clinic was opened more than 50 years ago and is still at the same location across the corner from UCLA School of Medicine. To our knowledge, it is the oldest institution specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility in the southwest part of the country.

The founder, E.T. Tyler, M.D. did pioneer many tests and procedures in this field. In 1947, he described his technique of insemination, in 1956, he reported results of sperm freezing and successful pregnancies. For many years, the cryobank at the Tyler Medical Clinic was the only one in this part of the country.

Later, other banks were opened. The personnel of the Tyler Medical Clinic were helpful in establishing many new banks in Southern California and we were particular in passing high standards in donor selection and screening, in the technique of cryopreservation and record-keeping to these new banks.

The bank is doing a truly excellent job. Recently, we were successful in establishing a pregnancy using sperm cryopreserved in our bank for almost twenty years.
