Our people

The advantage of our centre is our specialists with extensive experience and a personal approach, who use all latest available diagnostic methods and treatments. Cooperation of the whole team is important when it comes to fertility treatment. Gynaecologists, andrologist and embryologists will seek advice from both our medical geneticist and a psychologist / counsellor. In addition, our nurses and midwives have received special training and are of great help to us.
