Fertility Treatment Options: Reading Open Day

London Women's Clinic is holding a fertility open day at its Reading clinic on Saturday 21 November, from 9 am. It's aimed at people new to the clinic rather than existing patients, who are asked to contact their care team directly. If you're just starting to look into your options, it's a chance to meet fertility specialists, tour the clinic and its facilities, and have a free mini consultation with an expert.

The Reading site is a boutique clinic on London Street, led by Clinical Director Dr Arthi Thangavel, which brings Harley Street expertise into the heart of Berkshire. The way it works is that you have your consultations, scans and monitoring right here in Reading, while the more invasive procedures — egg collections, embryo transfers and the like — take place at the clinic's Harley Street home. The group started there in 1985 and has since pioneered many of the routine techniques used in fertility treatment today, with experienced consultants and nursing staff across eleven clinics.

On the day, you'll get a sense of what they offer: IVF, IUI, egg freezing, donor treatments and fertility testing. They welcome same-sex couples, the LGBTQ+ community, single women and people over 40, and they support NHS-funded patients. Across all their clinics, they also offer 0% finance. If you've been wondering where to start or just want to see the place and talk to someone who knows their stuff without committing to a full appointment, this is a good way in.

It's free to attend, and it runs from 9 am on Saturday 21 November at London Women's Clinic Reading, 52 London Street, Reading RG1 4SQ.
