In the news today you may have seen reports that another health provider is withdrawing their non-invasive pre-implantation genetic test.

We want to reassure our patients that this technology has not been used at Melbourne IVF; this news does not affect our patients.

We do not use the culture medium approach, at Virtus Health we use the established world-wide genetic testing technique, where a few cells are biopsied from the embryo. Biopsy of the embryo is known to give highly reliable results and is in widespread use globally.

We understand today’s news may create anxiety and our experienced team is here to provide you with ongoing support.

If you have any further questions contact us on 1800 111 483 for more information.
