“We have had a wonderful experience! We started the journey at Care Nottingham but due to limited no. of egg donors at the time, were asked if we would be happy to move our care to their sister company; IVF Life. We were concerned at first but the coordination between UK and Spain has been seamless. The communication with IVF Life has been amazing and the donor selection process effortless! We are now 8+5 pregnant and overjoyed. We would like to thank all the staff involved in our care and send an extra special thanks to Carmen, Aida and Dr Shilpka. They have been so warm, welcoming and genuinely supportive of the entire process! We will never forget them!”

"From start to finish this was an incredible experience for us both. The staff are so warm and friendly, everyone is so helpful. The luxury seaside apartment they arrange for you is stellar.

This was the best medical care either of us had experienced in our life. We were treated like human beings and not wallets. The building is beautiful and modern, full of deep wood and natural lighting. The coffee in the lobby is delicious and Louis at the front desk greets you with your name and a smile every time you walk in. It’s nothing like US health care, it is incredible.

But then their process is so clearly advanced and the doctors and nurses are all incredible professionals.

The cost with flights, luxury apartment for 2 weeks , car rental, food, and all medical costs was less than half of what we would have paid in the US, and that is with a gold insurance plan.

The outcome? Implantation before we returned home and currently pregnant with our first child!

Be nervous all you like, but overcome it and travel to IVF Spain, they are the best!

Update: our 4 month old son says IVF Spain is the best!"

"I can highly recommend IVF Life. The service, care, and attention I received were exceptional. From my very first contact with Cindy, who was incredibly professional and took the time to listen to my needs, I felt supported and understood.

A very special thank you goes to Dr. Herrera, who made it possible for me to become a mum after many years of being told by different clinics that I would never have a child. She reviewed my case thoroughly and created a treatment plan tailored specifically to me — and it worked. I now have a beautiful 18-month-old boy, and I cannot thank her enough. She truly made my dreams come true.

Throughout the entire process, she made me feel calm, cared for, and confident. She took the time to ensure I understood every step.

Thank you to the whole team. You changed my life."

“Given the highly emotional nature of what this clinic offers we were made to feel welcomed and settled from the very off! Pablo, honestly is a legend! He was very happy to sort out any communication issues and any test results etc. Every stage of the medical and mental process was expertly dealt with by the doctors and nurses. I cannot thank them all enough for their support and expertise whilst we went through our IVF journey.”

"Although we are extremely lucky to have had successful treatment at the Alicante clinic after our 2nd attempt, we would not recommend IVF life to others. We would especially discourage those seeking treatment from countries outside of Spain, unless you have a good understanding of Spanish law, and are aware there are investigations and treatments you will need to pay for in addition to the treatment at the Spanish clinics.

The reason for our poor rating and dissatisfaction with the service are:

1. We were not fully informed of additional treatments and investigations at the start of the treatment. We were therefore surprised when these were announced to us at the relevant stage of treatment. Some of these treatments and investigations were not evidence based, were not explained to us, and were very costly. When we questioned whether one of the investigations was necessary (we knew there was no indication for it and the result would not give us any information of use), we were told any further treatment or advice would be withheld if we did not have it. This was expensive but without benefit.
2. Although the email communication is responsive, most of the communication is with admin staff who do not have medical knowledge. We had a distinct lack of contact with the medics/nurses, notably, we expected a meeting with our lead consultant following a failed treatment cycle to discuss our options. After our first consultation, we only communicated directly with the medics when attending for transfers.
3. At times we were given incorrect information and had to interpret Spanish law ourselves. As we do not have Spanish language skills, this was challenging.
4. A 29 page consent form was sent to us without any explanation. We know that in such a desperate and vulnerable position we would sign it again, but we now realise that it is designed to provide legal cover to the clinic, not to gain informed consent from the patients.
5. When attending for embryo transfers, it was clear that the team had not reviewed our medical records, as they did not know the information which was pertinent to our case.
6. The doctor dismissed reports of pain on transfers and seemed to take this as an insult to his technique, rather than discussing management options.
7. The clinic do not have, or would not share with us, their complaints process."
