Managing the Infertile Couple - Pathway of Care

Our Network of Care

At Queensland Fertility Group, we have some of Australia’s leading fertility specialists. Many have played a pioneering role in the development of IVF treatment and techniques, and our researchers and scientists continue to make advanced breakthroughs to continually improve outcomes for our patients.

Our nurses, counsellors, support staff and fertility specialists work together to provide personalised treatment to the highest standards.

Video Consults
Our video consult services also allow our patients to continue receiving advice from our fertility specialists, while protecting their safety, even if they have to self-isolate at home during the COVID-19 situation.

We are using the very latest Zoom technology which will allow our patients to have a close conversation with their specialist as well as to view images of both IVF details and all of their test results and cycle progress.
