Testimonials

Ed Coats is a brilliant consultant who we found professional and caring when we underwent fertility treatment. He had a modernistic approach which was tailored to our individual situation and ultimately avoided us having to move onto more complicated treatments. His input was fundamental in the success of our treatment; we’re grateful for his expertise, positivity and compassion during what was a very challenging time for us. We are now parents to a healthy baby boy.

Dear Dr Coats, my conversation with you turned out to be a life-changing event, and I can’t thank you enough for your attention to the particularities of my medical profile, and your willingness to think outside the box in the case of an older patient. Having a second child has brought such joy to me and my family, especially my elder son who now has the little brother he so much wanted. I’m quite sure that it would not have happened if I hadn’t had the good fortune to speak to you. I thought you would like to know how that one intervention has led to such a wonderfully happy outcome.
