The reviewer visited an IVF clinic for fertility treatment. The staff were friendly and the environment professional. However, the waiting time was long, the treatment was expensive, and not everyone got pregnant.

Made me very comfortable, explained everything as the procedure was conducted. Very professional and nice.
