The specialists behind your care
Fertility consultants, nurses and midwives, embryologists, genetic counsellors, nutritional therapists and fertility counsellors — one multidisciplinary team, working from your first consultation through to your pregnancy scan.
"Most people arrive here after months of being passed between clinics, repeating the same history to a different doctor each time. We built Plan Your Baby so that wouldn't happen — one named consultant who stays with you, and a team of nurses, embryologists, counsellors and nutritional therapists behind them. Everyone on this page is part of that."
