HFEA data reporting platform is often a few years behind due to the verification process. Therefore, to give you a more current view of our results, we are sharing our HFEA performance benchmarking data. This data relates to pregnancy rates and is based on our data submissions. It covers a rolling 12 month period with an in-built three month lag. The HFEA bench mark our pregnancy and birth rate data against the national average.

Many patients would like more information on the overall performance of the clinic they are interested in. The detailed statistics option on the HFEA ‘Choose a Fertility Clinic’ webpage allows you to tailor your search to better reflect your personal circumstances. Remember, the more precisely you specify your treatment options the smaller the numbers of past patients and the potentially less reliable the results.
Multiple births
Multiple pregnancies carry higher risk of miscarriage, preterm birth, low birth rate and pre-eclampsia. Therefore, the birth of a single healthy baby is the safest, most desirable outcome.
In our clinic we encourage good prognosis patients to consider single embryo transfer to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancy.
The HFEA has set a target for all clinics in UK to limit the multiple birth rate to less 10% .
