I couldn't rate the experience and staff more. Having moved from another clinic to Essential Fertility, the difference is night and day, even things like completing the HFEA forms (which were not done previously). It feels comfortable and not as unknown as before and I cannot recommend, rate or praise them enough! Thank you!
We are incredibly grateful to Essential Fertility for making our dreams of starting a family a reality. As a same-sex couple, IVF felt overwhelming, but their compassionate support, expertise and affordable care empowered us.
We wholeheartedly recommend Essential Fertility to anyone seeking an inclusive path to parenthood. Thank you to each and every one of you that made our journey such a great experience!
I was honestly still in the deliberation phase, and with Manchester being a little far off, I was not sure I would go with the clinic.
It was Kelly’s approach that won me over. I called many times asking questions, and each time she was patient with me. It was her understanding and compassion that made me make the final decision and I can only hope she is a reflection of the whole team.
