I highly recommend Melbourne IVF and Dr Elzeiny in particular. After close to 6 years of trying to convince naturally Dr Elzeiny was able to make our dream of having a family come true. We were pregnant after our very first embryo transfer and I have Dr Elzeiny and the team at Melbourne IVF to thank...

I feel that Melbourne IVF were deceptive and dishonest.

This organisation seems more interested in extracting the maximum dollar from patients, rather than actually listening to them and their needs.

My partner and I attended an appointment with a FS. We were overcharged for an initial consult...

I'm sorry to say generally our experience with MIVF has been negative when compared to our expectations. The public system was far superior in terms of cleanliness, organisation and professionalism.
The final straw was when MIVF wasted an entire cycle when our healthy embryo was "lost" into the bi...

It was such a terrible experience. I was treated like a number. After 5 failed IVF attempts my doctor Dr Gronow didn't even call me to show any empathy or say he was sorry. He knew that was my last attempt. He just sent a with compliments slip instead. I wouldn't recommend Melbourne IVF to anyone, t...

Dont believe the success stats you are told, it seems to be more of a money making sheme to us, they are your best friend until you are out the door and all bills are paid and after that very hard to get hold of for advice or support.

Disempowering. Not patient-focussed at all. Felt like I had to hassle staff to get a result. Will def be using another service provider next time. Melb IVF: please don't respond with a 'we care about your feedback' - I know you don't.

Kind, considerate and professional staff. No issues in the five years (on and off) I ve been attending the clinic. I think your experience is definitely impacted by your success and the fertility specialist you choose. Can t recommend Assoc. Prof. Kate Stern and her team highly enough.
