Every IVF patient knows that the skill and the expertise of the IVF clinic plays a big
role in their chances of getting pregnant.
For example, one of India's busiest clinics is run by a skin specialist! Why is it so busy?
Because the clinic offers cheap IVF, they attract a lot of young infertile couples, who
don't even need IVF in the first place! Because they do IVF for all these couples, they
have a success rate which appears to be high - and a very busy and crowded clinic,
even though their IVF lab is of very poor quality!
This is also why "success rates" are not always a good method for judging an IVF
clinic's competence.
One of the best methods is to ask for photographic documentation of your embryos.
The key skill of the IVF clinic is to produce embryos. Whether or not the embryos will
implant to become a baby is a variable which depends on factors outside the clinic's
control, a good clinic should be proud to show you your embryos.
If a clinic refuses to provide you photos, this is a major black mark against them.
What are they hiding and why? And if they don't even have the equipment to
photograph your embryos, this means their equipment is sub-standard - enough reason
for you to look for another clinic!
