Genetic Testing

We spent some time with the Deputy Manager in Embryology, Elena Linara-Demakakou, to find out more about what her job entails and to hear what  exciting new developments are coming up in the LWC Harley Street laboratory.

We speak to Harley Street's fertility specialist Dr Apostolos Tsironis about his work with the IVF Select team and how developments to preimplantation genetic testing technology could improve IVF success rates further in the future. 

Using the latest technologies, and innovations in the laboratory enable us to select the best embryo possible for transfer, giving our patients the best chance of having a baby. 

After one devastating pregnancy loss after another, Charlene and Neil were offered a new PGT-M technique of 'karyomapping' to help prevent the miscarriages.

Perhaps you have had miscarriages in the past or you are a woman in your late thirties or early forties concerned about your chances of conceiving.  Embryo screening using a technique called PGT-A could help you achieve a pregnancy and healthy baby.

Liz and her husband almost gave up their hopes of having a baby. But they persisted through long waits, changed appointments and failed IVF on the NHS attempts to finally succeed at LWC London Bridge (formally the Bridge Centre).

One by One IVF is an innovative approach to IVF that moves away from the usual method of collecting the egg and returning the embryo to the uterus within the same cycle.

Part of the LWC's pioneering approach is using the latest technology and techniques to give you the best chance of having a successful pregnancy and taking home a healthy baby.

Alisha and her husband’s fertility journey was made more complex when they discovered that they were both carriers of the cystic fibrosis gene. Here she shares their story of opting for PGT-M treatment.
