A new, state-of-the-art fertility treatment centre is coming to Victoria, bringing much-needed services to Vancouver Island.

The clinic, Olive Fertility Victoria, will open in the James Bay area behind the B.C. legislature.

The facility will make it possible for islanders to finish a critical stage of the in vitro fertilization process, without having to travel off Vancouver Island.

Local mom Ayah Grant says she and her husband spent more than $20,000 to conceive their child, plus thousands more to travel to Vancouver, the nearest destination for help.

Grant says she's happy a new fertility clinic is opening in Victoria so that other islanders won't have to repeat the same experience.

The new Olive Fertility Clinic is expected to open in 2023. Once it opens, the clinic's current satellite office on Yates Street will move there as well.
