Our team of doctors at the IVF Unit are highly experienced and knowledgeable. They will be responsible for investigating the cause of your difficulty conceiving and formulating an appropriate treatment plan based on your individual circumstances. They will also oversee your treatment and make adjustments where necessary. Our doctors have been at the forefront of advances in fertility treatment and play a vital role in researching and developing new ways of managing fertility problems.
Our dedicated nursing team are trained to the highest standards and are experienced in caring for patients with fertility problems. As such, they are in a unique position to understand your needs. It is likely that your treatment procedures (egg collection, embryo transfers etc.) will be carried out by a skilled, senior nurse.
Our team of embryologists are skilled in the use of laboratory techniques and play a vital role in the investigation and treatment of fertility problems. The main responsibilities of the team are to analyse and report on semen evaluations and advise on treatment options, to perform various aspects of treatment (such as ICSI, IVF and freezing/thawing of stored embryos and sperm) and ensure the wellbeing of your sperm, eggs and embryos whilst in the laboratory. Our team are also heavily involved in various research studies, ensuring that the Hull IVF Unit is kept at the forefront of the latest developments.
