"I feel truly fortunate to have found Dr. Venetis in Thessaloniki. With a well-established reputation in Australia and internationally, he is not only an expert in fertility but also an exceptional personal gynecologist. His approach is holistic, deeply knowledgeable, and marked by rare levels of care and communication. You immediately feel you’re in the hands of someone who genuinely listens, explains clearly, and respects you fully. Many people travel from abroad to see him, and choose him for his outstanding reputation. Additionally, his assistant is also warm, positive, and incredibly helpful, making every visit smooth and reassuring.
Dr. Venetis combines scientific excellence with true compassion, setting a standard that is hard to find. I highly recommend him to any woman seeking thoughtful, expert care."

“My partner and I just went through IVF cycle with Dr Venetis. This is our fourth IVF altogether, and first with Dr Venetis. Our previous experiences were disappointing, and we were close to giving up. In a big clinic system, we were just a number… Then we met Dr Venetis and our perspective drastically changed. The experience was so positive from the very beginning, with the feeling that we can rely completely on our doctor and that all our questions will be promptly answered. Dr Venetis is a world-class expert, fully up to date with the newest research trends in the fertility field! He is an exquisite expert in the theoretical and practical part of the IVF procedure, and last but not least he is an exceptional person. His enthusiasm and dedication to the patient I have not seen at any other doctor, in any field. He is giving 120% to his patients. And when somebody gives that much, I feel anything we write here is not good enough. Dr Venetis is a precious jewel of the European and the world IVF field.”

"I had the unfortunate experience of being an international patient of Dr. Venetis last year, and I cannot recommend him.
During my embryo transfer, Dr. Venetis performed the procedure in a way that ultimately damaged my embryo. The initial attempt failed, and my embryo had to be returned to the incubator, which was incredibly distressing. To make matters worse, I was left in a gynecological chair for over 45 minutes with a full bladder, leading to significant emotional trauma that I’m still dealing with today. I’m currently receiving treatment at a specialized university clinic that typically assists war veterans and first responders.
Additionally, during my egg collection, my endometrioma was inadvertently pierced, necessitating a course of antibiotics. I was also concerned about the treatment plan Dr. Venetis provided, which seemed suboptimal. Upon returning to Australia, I sought a second opinion and was advised to undergo surgery for my endometriosis, down regulation before my next embryo transfer, and was informed that I was understimulated. I learned that the embryo transfer technique used by Dr. Venetis was inadequate, and my previous attempt could not have been successful.
The handover note prepared by Dr. Venetis for my new specialist contained numerous factual errors, downplayed the severity of my procedure, and inaccurately attributed the cycle outcome to my age.
Furthermore, the treatment cost turned out to be 1,000 euros higher than what was initially agreed upon, and I was only informed of this change 24 hours before the procedure.
When I raised my concerns with Dr. Venetis, he stated that he delivered value for money, but I felt dismissed and unheard. Overall, my experience was deeply unsatisfactory, and I would not recommend his services."

“IVF is a journey and we were lucky enough to travel it with Dr Venetis. We always felt well informed and looked after throughout the whole process and were able to trust every part of it. We had our first child under his care during COVID and he made sure we truly enjoyed it. He has and continues caring for our friends and anyone who needs his professional input. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us and thank you for giving us our biggest blessing 💖 forever grateful 💖”
