Access Fertility - London - experiences . How to research clinics?

[Cuppppatea]

Any tips on researching clinics? No idea where to start.

Thinking to go ahead and pay for a 50% refund course of IVF at Access Fertility before my 40th birthday- if you decide you don't want to go ahead you can get a full refund. I am so pushed for time because I am 40 mid may. My husband is booked in for DNA fragmentation test this week and will also be waiting on that consultation....

It would be great if anyone can share any direct experiences by PM of any of the clinics...its so hard to choose! Im a bit gutted non of these clinics offer mild IVF which I feel drawn to.

Options are

TFP Boston Place

Bridge Clinic London

CRGH City

CRGH Portland

Lister Fertility

Lister Fertility at The Portland Hospital London Women’s Clinic Harley Street

The Fertility & Gynaecology Academy

LCRH

Hi, I know this is old but is there any chance you could DM me which one? I'm choosing a clinic from some on the list now x

hi there, if you haven’t already, you can check out the clinic’s ratings on the HFEA website, and Fertility Mapper is a useful site for reviews from other patients:

We recently started looking into other clinics and had an initial consultation with Lister Fertility at The Portland Hospital London. I have been with two other clinics in London previously- one for IUI and one for IVF- and hand on heart, I have been truly impressed by Lister. Mr Rehan Salim- could not recommend him more. Knowledgeable, caring, no BS talk. The administration was also incredibly efficient, which was a first for me!!!

I’m currently 7 weeks pregnant so have paused any treatment with them for the time being. But from what I’ve experienced so far, it’s been great! They even offered to do an early scan when I told them I was pregnant.

Hope this helps and good luck xx

Also - PGTA testing is not included in the price. Do these clinics do it??
