IVF - In Vitro Fertilisation Athens, Greece

During the COVID period, I recently had a laparoscopic hysterectomy performed by Dr Pistofidis at the Lefkos Stavros clinic. After receiving opinions from 4 other doctors (in Spain), upon my first meeting with Dr Pistofidis and meeting some of his staff, I knew he was the right person to perform this operation. Had the surgery mid-September which went perfectly (no blood loss), was at home the next day and recovered completely without a problem by following all instructions. The entire staff both office and clinic were very organized, efficient and amiable...everyone knew exactly at what stage their patient was and communicated instantly; the clinic is clean, well run and orderly. If anyone has a gynaecological problem, Dr Pistofidis and his team are the only ones I trust and highly recommend. The pricing structure is very fair and not exorbitant...a miracle these days.

We had been trying for 5 years and tried the UK system first and felt like a chicken in a farm. It was very impersonal and commoditised. We wanted a bit more care and attention and as my wife is Greek so via whatclinic we reached out to Ioannis and what a revelation. We had his personal email and phone contact and maintained a regular ongoing dialog. We actually had someone to work with to discuss and find a solution as opposed to just selling us a package. Even though we were in the UK and Ioannis in Greece it was very easy to keep in touch and it was a partnership to achieve our goal, and not just a transaction. We had easter, summer and winter for our trips and IVF rounds, and on this front, the UK would have been easier, but Ioannis went above and beyond each time to try to find solutions that worked for us. We now have 2 beautiful babies (twins) and we can't thank Ioannis enough. Even if our latest attempt didn't work, we felt in safe hands with Ioannis and confident that he would support us every inch of the way to find a solution. You need trust and a true partnership during these stressful times and we couldn't have asked for more.

After many difficulties, I decided to search for a solution somewhere else. It was a big risk to visit another country in order to achieve my scope. I was very lucky. I found a very experienced doctor who guides me step by step to the achievement. He was near to me by supporting and encouraging all the steps needed. He believed in me and together we succeeded.

Absolutely amazing clinic. My baby daughter has only recently arrived. They are completely focused on providing individual, personalised care from the start. I cannot thanks Penny and the team for making our family complete!

I chose to do my egg freezing at Serum IVF in Athens after meeting Doctor Yannis and Embryologist Sofia who put me at ease. They genuinely care about their patients and I had very positive experience throughout. Everything was discussed clearly and at no point was I rushed. Dr Yannis and Embryologist Sofia are the nicest doctors I have met, they cares of each step of the treatment, goes through details and made feel well taken care of. The nursing team, especially midwife Chara, were truly wonderful and always available for any questions or concerns, no matter the time of day! Thank you everyone in Serum IVF, you all made my IVF treatment easy and memorable.
