About Zir Chemed
Zir Chemed is a Jerusalem-based fertility clinic, medical advisory, support organization - and so much more.
Zir Chemed was founded in 1995 by Rabbi Nachum Tenenbaum zt”l, in partnership with Dr Baruch Brooks, at the direct instruction of gedolim who recognized a critical need for a fertility clinic built according to daas Torah. From the outset, our mission was clear: to serve couples in our community with expert professional care, sensitivity, and in cognizance with halacha. Zir Chemed’s clinic and services were custom designed specifically to meet the unique medical, emotional, and spiritual needs of our community.
In the last 30 years, Zir Chemed has accompanied thousands of couples on their journey toward parenthood. As R’ Nachum said, “Zir Chemed has a 100% success rate—because every couple who walks through our doors leaves feeling supported, no matter where they are in their process.”
Our commitment remains steadfast: to provide every couple longing for a child with expert guidance, compassionate care, and a comprehensive, halachically sensitive framework throughout their hopeful journey.
"We have a 100% success rate."
