Barbados Fertility Centre

Barbados Fertility Centre will always have a glowing recommendation from my husband and I. Their knowledge and comforting manner guiding you through your journey makes a big difference. Dr Skinner, in our first phone consultation, was so knowledgeable and her positivity in my chances were so infectious that I was excited immediately. I will always be grateful for their patience with my million and one questions and the friendly atmosphere which helped calm my nerves many times. I will forever be grateful to Barbados Fertility Centre.

This is the closest you can get to perfect customer service and a skilled, world-class team. You’re treated like your family; so much that when you’re not around them, you really really miss them. The perfect mix of professionalism and personality. Thank you especially to Jen (I considered her my 2nd mum) and can’t forget Britney from TT. Tracey! Dionne, Danielle, Anna and my dear Cyrilene from BIM. You guys have an amazing thing going and I’m proud to have been part of it and help in the small ways that I could have. There’s not much that resounds with me in this world but my experiences with you guys surely have! I will definitely, without a doubt, recommend you all. Thank you again! Dionne, you are a gem.

I had never heard of BFC until I was sitting in an international airport two years ago, waiting for my flight home. I had bought a well-known magazine to read and came across a story about a mature lady and her husband who had struggled with infertility for years and was finally successful after seeking assistance from BFC. The couple was blessed with a little girl who was their pride and joy.

At that time in my own life, I had only been married for a short time but wanted to start a family. I had started treatment locally in my own country and was treated with fertility medication for six months but was unsuccessful. After reading the story in the magazine and after my last failed attempt at fertility medication, my doctor at the time recommended BFC without her even knowing that I had read about the same place just recently. Her recommendation confirmed that this was the place I needed to go.

I visited the clinic's website and spoke with Anna who was so comforting and understanding and helped to cement in my mind that I was definitely making the right decision. As I was in my late thirties with low AMH levels, I knew I needed to act swiftly. After several months of correspondence, the required treatments and tests and trying to convince my husband this is what we needed to do, we headed to Barbados the following year to begin IVF treatments. We met with Anna, Dr. Skinner, Dr. Corona, Natalia the embryologist, Cyrilene, Emily the comedic nurse, Dionne and the rest of the team.

After speaking with everyone, I knew I was in the right hands. BFC knows how to provide excellent customer service, especially when dealing with such a sensitive issue as fertility. I have never felt more cared about and supported. I was not just a number to them but a woman with emotions and concerns in a very delicate and fragile state looking for hope and a chance at motherhood. After two failed IVF attempts, I am currently pregnant and my family and friends could not be happier and thrilled for us! It almost feels surreal that I will be a mother in a few short months but I am so thankful and grateful to BFC for assisting in making this happen. It was a financial sacrifice but well worth it. I would recommend BFC to anyone who has gone through fertility struggles and feel that they may never have a chance of having a family but go to the website, speak to Anna and leave the rest to BFC!

As a woman in her 40's who had had 5 miscarriages in the past the choice of IVF in the UK was both expensive & as we would probably need a donor egg going to be a long wait as eggs from black or Asian donors I was told were over a 2 year wait & not guaranteed even then!
We looked around & first visited a clinic in Brazil & unfortunately had two unsuccessful rounds. We then read a fantastic review on the Barbados Fertility Centre & decided to try there. They did more tests for problems than we had previously had & two of these found problems which the clinic said needed to be addressed before we started.
We then traveled to Barbados for 3 weeks ( incorporating a relaxing de-stressing holiday which I'm sure was very beneficial!)
We had or IVF & 12 days later a fantastic POSITIVE pregnancy test!!!

The staff & Dr's at this clinic were hugely welcoming. They were positive & greeted EVERYONE with a smile which, knowing how stressful the whole process of IVF can be, is a wonderful welcome. Very professional but still somehow make you feel like a part of some huge family!
Helpful when there are any difficulties in getting & with medication & prescriptions from overseas.

Personal support wonderful!

My husband and I tried for about 6 years to have a family and we were faced with IVF. We chose this clinic because of the high success rates and the outstanding reviews. I could not find one bad review! The team at BFC has changed our lives and we are so blessed to have found them.

Our experience was exceptional. We were treated with so much love and care. Everyone and the clinic made our experience the best that we could ask for. They welcomed us with open arms and by the time we left to say goodbye, they were all giving hugs and wishing us the best of luck. It really was a great experience and they truly enjoy helping you become a family.

My husband and I traveled from Colorado to get IVF treatment from BFC. The quality of treatment was a thousand times better than what you find in the U.S., and the cost was so much more affordable.

We chose to travel to BFC for IVF treatment based on the great reviews we found online, the high success rates, the low cost, and the fact that they are JCI Accredited. The quality of care of BFC is amazing! From the ladies at the front desk to the nurses in the treatment rooms, every one there makes you feel welcome and you can tell that they all truly care about your situation. The clinic itself is in a beautiful building directly across from the gorgeous, blue ocean. Everything is super clean and up-to-date. You can't find a prettier or more relaxing place to get IVF treatment.

My husband and I went through IVF with ICSI treatment at BFC. This was our first try at IVF. We have had three unsuccessful IUIs and BFC was our last hope at starting a family of our own. All of the staff were so friendly and nice, and willing to help us every step of the way. The value of having IVF with BFC is AMAZING compared to the cost in the States. I would and have recommended them to all of my friends and family.

It took Bryan and I six years to finally meet our precious baby boy. He is everything we dreamed he would be and more. He justifies all of the heartaches we had to go through. We would like to say a BIG thank you to Barbados Fertility Center for making us feel relaxed and reassuring each and every step of the way. Nothing was ever a hassle, you always made sure to answer all of our silly questions and make us feel like this was going to be a great adventure. For that, we will always be thankful. Thank you for helping us achieve a dream we thought we would never achieve. We will definitely be back for number two this winter!

IVF with ICSI

My extensive research for potential successful and affordable IVF abroad brought me to Barbados Fertility Centre as my #1 choice for travel from the USA. From my initial contact with them, BFC struck me as different than other clinics. They were attentive to my individual needs, use a holistic approach to the IVF experience, have staff that have extensive experience, and utilize methods and laboratories that use the latest research and technology. Their staff is really caring, attentive and so supportive. We now have our beautiful baby boy thanks to BFC. I have also refereed other friends from the USA who have also successfully conceived at BFC, after multiple failed IVF attempts in the USA. Going to BFC for IVF is your best chance at a successful IVF, and you get to have an amazing Caribbean trip too!

"IVF/ICSI due to Azoospermia. Definitely a good price.

We chose Barbados Fertility Clinic because of the success rates and the location. What better than to try and relax during a process that can be so stressful?
We had our very first IVF/ICSI procedure here and came back home to a positive pregnancy test, unfortunately that first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage but the Doctors and Nurses and other Staff at BFC were determined to get me pregnant. Fast forward to two years later and I'm in my third trimester. Our baby boy is due in 4 weeks. We just couldn't be happier. Dr. Skinner, Anna Hosford, Dr. Corona, Emma, Cyrilene thank you for being always gracious and kind and helping to make our dreams come true."

After long and painful 6 years trying to conceive we found Barbados Fertility. After much researches, reviews and a consult with dr Skinner we decided to give our third ivf cycle a shot with BFC and we conceived!
Previously we had 4 iui, 2 ivf and never got a positive pregnancy test before.
I don't produce many eggs and even though I only had 2 good embryos on my cycle at BFC we conceived.
We unfortunately end up loosing the pregnancy but due to the fact that my eggs are not the best quality anymore.

Everyone at this clinic treats you like a dear friend. You feel so well taking care which is so rare on the care system. Anna, Dionne, Emma and all other staff are super sweetie and they keep you update at all times so you don't have to be constantly asking when and why this is happening during your cycle.

We just got back from Barbados and we got our first positive pregnancy test! Even as I write this, I can't believe I'm actually pregnant! Barbados fertility center is amazing, we had a wonderful experience and are in awe of how nice everyone at the clinic was. The standard of care and the human touch is unparalleled, especially compared to the first clinic we went to in Indiana (US). Dr. Skinner and ALL her staff are magnificent and really treat you like real people and understand your pain and anxiety and help you every step of the way. Despite the first part of the treatment actually starting while still in the US (stimulation), we felt the support was so much more than what we received from the clinic here in the US during our first cycle. Additionally, they don't make you go through extra unnecessary procedures and tests just to make more money, which is very very common in the US. I highly recommend BFC and wish everyone the very best with their fertility journey.

Excellent clinic, relaxing location and the best staff!

My husband and I had been trying for 3 years. I was young and didn't understand. We went through 7 IUIs with 2 different doctors before we decided to give up on that. For a couple months, we didn't know what to do. IVF was so expensive in the US. I decided to search the internet for international places that spoke English. I came across BFC in many reviews so I checked it out. I emailed them just to get an idea and they were so helpful. They answered a million questions and were very prompt in doing so. I contacted them in Feb and went there in June. We became pregnant the first cycle. I am not going to say that it was a fun experience, but we are so thankful for the staff and doctors at BFC.

People ask why did we go to Barbados. We went there because it was half the price of the US; it was a mini vacation also; they spoke English!; and they had the highest success rates that we had seen.
