Patient Experience at GFC: What Sets Them Apart

What we do differently!

1) Correct diagnosis

There is no ONE reason for infertility and hence there is no one treatment. Dozens of medical conditions can cause infertility. The key is to arrive at the correct diagnosis as the correct treatment depends on the same. This will greatly increase the chance of success for the couple within the shortest time possible. The following are the basic reasons for infertility-

Problems with the egg
Problems with the sperm
Problems with uterus
Combination of any of the above
Unexplained infertility

Right number of tests will help us in arriving what the problem is. This way, not too much tests are done, which would make the treatment expensive, and by doing too less tests diagnosis may be missed. An accurate diagnosis saves a lot of time and expenditure by guiding towards the right treatment.

2) Least Time to pregnancy

Not all problems and diagnosis in infertility require IVF. IVF is NOT necessary for all couples undergoing fertility treatment. Individualisation of treatment is the key, which is THE basis of treatment at GFC. One third of our patients go ahead to conceive naturally, which is a matter of pride for us and a mark of our accuracy in diagnosis and treatment.That’s why we are a fertility Centre, not just an IVF Clinic.

Time to pregnancy is one of the key factors to measure the quality of a fertility program.We always try to achieve the goal of achieving pregnancy at the earliest.Based on the diagnosis, we suggest treatments that has the best possibility to give the maximum pregnancy rate within the shortest period of time. The least time to pregnancy concept is very important to both women and men with advanced age, women with low AMH and men with very low sperm or nil sperm count.

3) Cost effective

We at GFC understand that money is a major concern especially in India where fertility treatment is not covered by insurance. We know the importance of hard-earned money. Our well-read experts devise treatment strategy which balances with your financial status. With transparent pricing, we keep fertility treatment cost effective. Hence, we strive to offer the right treatment the very first time, to avoid wastage of time and minimise expenditure.

4) Supportive Environment

GFC is committed to providing a supportive environment to each and every couple. Doctors spend quality time with patients explaining the problem and the treatment options, in addition to giving a lending ear to their feelings. Our patients have been quite vocal in appreciating our doctors for this, which can be seen in many testimonials. Not only the doctors, every one of our staff have empathetic approach towards patients, making them feel at ease during the entire journey towards cherished parenthood.

5) Emotional support

Couples with Infertility find themselves most often than not, lonely. It is difficult to find a person to express their feelings, struggles, thoughts, status of mind, especially when there are sexual and marital issues. Our doctors, counsellors and staff, who have helped couple in every kind of situation, are with the patient medically and emotionally with step of the way throughout the journey. Problems in marriage, sexual dysfunction, depression, anxiety, loneliness, feeling of grief are normal reaction, which we always recognise and help our patients out with. We can help restore some hope. We also connect patients to resources that you might not know about.
