What Dr and hospital/institute is the best for IVF/PGD?

Hi,
I can only tell you about ****. I cycled there in October, and although I had no transfer, I still think the doctors there are the best ones in Europe. Europe only offers FISH for PGD, so you cannot choose any other testing method anyway.
As I was the first one from this forum cycling there, I was sort of blue-eyed stumbling in there. I did not ask a lot of questions and I just trusted and thought they knew what they were doing.
But I should have asked them not to do 8-probe but at least only 5-probe FISH instead. I think Savvas in Cyprus does the same. But the doctors at **** have had a lot of work experience at the Zech-clinics, which are very very popular and famous in German speaking countries. **** is only two years old now, but the doctors are really good. It is still my first choice in Europe. The price is a little smaller than Cyprus, I think you pay 7800 Euros for ICSI/PGD. Plus meds, HIV/Hepatitis test during egg retrieval (200 Euros), plus ultrasounds you have to go to at your local doctor (of course you could also stay there for the whole cycle).

Good luck with your decision, I know it is hard. I was on here for months before I cycled, but since cycling, I have still learned so much and I have done lots and lots of things wrong during my first time.

Prague is also cheaper (not sure of price) and definitely a good option, although they haven't been doing PGD for very long.

I have to disagree with that. The **** doctors are really good and experienced. The embryologist is a very good one. Even though the method is still FISH. But in Europe, you simply don't get anything else.

Is it true that you cannot freeze embryos in Jordan? I thought it was only in Dubai??

That may be correct but I cannot travel anywhere where there are multiple travel advisories issued by multiple governments. NZ just issued a NEW travel advisory because of all the unrest in the middle east. Obviously, not very safe for US citizens of anyone that might be mistaken for a US citizen. Not worth the risk IMO.

Yes, I understand what you mean, I didn't know there were advisories about traveling to Jordan.
