Mumbai, June 11, 2019: Apollo Fertility today announced the opening of its new state-of-the-art centre in Navi Mumbai. Backed by Apollo Hospitals’ unbeatable expertise and legacy of clinical excellence, Apollo Fertility offers specialized investigative procedures and treatment plans for infertility in men and women to give couples their very best chance of a successful pregnancy. Apollo Fertility takes a patient-centric approach backed by state-of-the-art technology and clinical protocols delivered by a team of specialists in Fertility, Reproductive Medicine, Reproductive Endocrinology, Andrology, Urology, Fertility Enhancing Laparoscopic Surgeons, Fetal Medicine and a supportive team of Physiotherapists, Counsellors and Dieticians.
Infertility refers to an inability to conceive by natural means, affecting nearly 10 to 15% of married couples in India. Nearly 27.5 million couples who are actively planning for children suffer from infertility. With infertility becoming a common problem, more and more young couples are today seeking a trusted and dependable treatment for infertility.
“We are pleased to bring the Apollo Fertility Centre to Navi Mumbai so that more couples experiencing problems in conceiving can experience the joy of parenthood. A dedicated stand-alone facility, the Apollo Fertility Centre will offer quality infertility treatment in a world-class infrastructure with care delivered by experienced clinicians. At Apollo Fertility, couples will be able to experience the famed Apollo personalised patient care backed by superior cutting-edge technology,” said Mr. Santosh Marathe, COO, Apollo Hospitals, Navi Mumbai
Dr. Nikita Lad Patel, Chief Consultant, Apollo Fertility said, “The new Apollo Fertility centre in Navi Mumbai will offer evidence and protocol based, ethical and transparent treatment options to infertile couples. At Apollo, we strongly follow clinical protocols and algorithms coupled with the latest cutting edge technology to treat patients thereby ensuring successful outcomes.”
With a focus on providing care that is accessible, the team of fertility experts at Apollo Fertility provide treatment that is planned and based on a couple’s specific situation and need. The team understands that couples need to feel comfortable and takes effort and time to develop a rapport with them to completely understand the underlying problem, so as to decide the right course of treatment.
Mr. Anubhav Prashant, COO, Apollo Cradle and Fertility said, “Backed by the strong legacy of Apollo, we are proud to share that Apollo Fertility is today one of the most respected institutions in the field of fertility in India and we have treated over 18000 couples in its early course itself. Apollo Fertility in Navi Mumbai will be our seventh centre in India, and we hope that couples in Navi Mumbai and surrounding areas will be benefited. We will be expanding our presence in other cities in due course.”
Dr. Neelam Bhise, Chief Consultant, Apollo Fertility stressed on how the timing of the decision to visit a fertility centre is of utmost importance. She said, “Many couples delay the start of treatment. However, it is of utmost importance that couples who have already crossed the age of 30 years and have not conceived naturally after trying for years, need to take help of Assisted Reproductive Technologies. The sooner the better it is for successful clinical outcomes.”
It is estimated that while the female factor accounts for 40% of infertility among couples, infertility attributable to male factors is on the rise and constitutes 30-40% of infertility too. Commenting on this, Dr. Neelam Bhise said, “In India the general notion or myth is that infertility clinics are meant only for treating women, the entire male infertility gamut is just ignored. In India, nearly 50% of infertility is related to the reproductive anomalies or disorders in the male. Hence it is important that the male infertility is evaluated completely when a couple come forward for fertility treatment.”
Apollo Fertility offers a complete fertility service matrix with a holistic approach. Both the partners are expected to come for the first visit wherein a detailed history is taken, previous reports are reviewed, and simple tests prescribed to understand the medical background and plan the treatment based on a couple’s specific situation and tailored to their condition.
Dr Suvarchala, National Scientific Head, Apollo Fertility, said. “We pride ourselves on the impeccable standards of our advanced IVF lab, which is crucial for the treatments offered. Our lab is one of the very few labs in India that has proper Total Quality Management in place which optimizes the results of the Assisted Reproductive Techniques.”
