Clinics may present their pregnancy rates in different ways and this can be confusing and misleading. When looking at the success rates for a clinic, it's very important that you look at the figures carefully and ensure you look at those most relevant to your personal circumstances.

In order to make a fair and direct comparison between clincs you should check their results are presented in accordance with the guidelines set down by the HFEA and not just on selective dates.

We are pleased to publish our latest Clinical Pregnancy Rates for 1st April 2008 to 31st March 2009, these figures have been validated by the HFEA and apply to all our patients and not just a select few.
