Large fertility and IVF centre opens in Greece

According to the Greek City Times, the largest fertility and IVF medical centre in south-eastern Europe has been inaugurated, in the city of Thessaloniki, Greece.

Situated in the Interbalkan Medical Center, the fertility and IVF unit is the only fertility centre to be within a general hospital that covers the full spectrum of health services.

The unit is staffed with another twenty doctors and embryology specialists whose experience has so far surpassed 35,000 successful IVF cycles.

Boasting an investment of more than €1.5 million, which brought in the most up-to-date medical equipment, the new unit includes one of the most pioneering laboratories in Europe, compliant to the cleanroom classification standard ISO Class 7, and is using electronic monitoring of medical samples via its RI Witness system, alongside its embryological cultures, as FIVI’s laboratory is certified by Swiss Approval under the EN15224 certification standard.
