SEASON 6: Looking for a fertility clinic in Nottingham? Introducing CARE FERTILITY

Hear from Care Fertility Nottingham and the ground breaking with they do in the fertility world, from world firsts to indepth analysis in their labs.   The Care group has clinics across the UK  and some of its staff were part of the pioneering team involved in the world's first IVF baby. You'll be hearing from some of their other clinics, later in the season. In this episode you will hear from Sarah Swift, a counsellor at Care,  Dr Mahar Ragunath, Mary Smedley, Nurse Manager, Collen Lynch, an embryologist. I was excited to go back to Nottingham, my home town and despite the rain it was a fascinating visit to Care. A bit about me, if this is your first listen and viewing of The Fertility Podcast, I'm Natalie your host and I had successful treatment in 2014. You can read more about me here. For now all you need to know, is I've been working with Access Fertility  who work with clinics around the UK, offering finance plans for you if you have to self fund your treatment. What I am doing is giving you an insight in the clinic, as someone who has been through treatment, to hopefully help you with your decision. Finding out you need to have fertilitytreatment is massive, it's overwhelming. So when it comes to choosing a clinic it can feel like another stress, will it be the best place for you? The HFEA have just relaunched their website ( in beta version) which you can view here  that's what we did. If there had a been a podcast about the different clinics and what they are like, when we had to choose I would definitely have listened to it. The world of fertility is fascinating and the people in it are truly remarkable.  I hope you find this clinic visit useful and as interesting as I did.
