1. Initial consultation

We would be pleased to advise you in a personal initial consultation in one of our IVF centers and draw up, together with you, your individualized treatment plan. Please send us beforehand all available results from previous screening tests and examinations. This will allow us to make careful and in-depth preparations for the meeting with you. In order to satisfy the law, we kindly ask you to comply with your obligations in accordance with the respective national provisions (e.g. photo ID, copy of marriage certificate or original document of notarial deed). If you need any additional details, please give us a call. In order to best prepare the initial consultation and provide optimal conditions for any subsequent treatment, it is crucial for us to first establish a reliable and accurate diagnosis. To avoid any additional efforts and costs associated with the unnecessary repetition of examinations, please send us all your available medical results. You are welcome to send these documents online - simply and comfortably via our Online Registration. If, during our first meeting, it turns out that important diagnostic findings are missing from your documentation, it is certainly possible to perform the required testing at our centers.

4. Legal requirements

We endeavor to offer you cutting-edge fertility treatment options at the highest international standards. We are well aware that these treatments can be judged from varied perspectives. In our opinion, there is no such this as "do-gooders" in one country and "bad people" in another one. The reasons for these different legal standards are highly complex and often deeply anchored in the history of a country.

Unmarried couples
Austria provides unmarried couples with swift and uncomplicated access to IVF treatment. At request we are happy to arrange for you an appointment with an Austrian notary in order for you to obtain the required notarial deed. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions or concerns.
