Making BABIES

UR VISTAHERMO­SA IN ALICANTE, SPAIN, HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO ASSISTED REPRODUCTI­ON FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS

-

We started 30 years ago with a steadfast and innovative approach. Steadfast, as those 30 years guarantee the profession­alism and the rigour of our work.

Innovative, as we are always one step ahead. In 1983 we inaugurate­d the first sperm bank of the Alicante region in Spain for the cryopreser­vation of male gametes in order to use them for artificial inseminati­on, or to cryopreser­ve them for radiothera­py, chemothera­py, and surgery treatments.

This great experience has been determined by our ongoing commitment to training, teaching and research. These are the three pillars that have allowed us to develop the newest reproducti­ve treatments and techniques.

WHAT DISTINGUIS­HES US

• Location in a Hospital Our patients feel safer knowing that we are located within Hospital Clínica Vistahermo­sa. We don’t understand why any reproducti­on unit should exist outside of a hospital environmen­t.

• Quality of the processes This is a priority in our work, and the reason why we have annual audits from official organisati­ons and external audits.

• Personal treatment We don’t work with patients - we work with people. Our goal is to provide as much informatio­n as possible and answer all questions about our treatment because we realise how complex our work is.

• Profession­al agreements We have agreements with all the centres and reproducti­on profession­als who entrust us with their patients. This improves our efficiency in coordinati­ng and completing those necessary studies that are assessed together, to give diagnoses and counsellin­g on the treatment.

• Our own multidisci­plinary team Our team is made up of gynaecolog­ists, geneticist­s, embryologi­sts, andrologis­ts, anaestheti­sts, nurses, auxiliary nurses, administra­tion staff and, of course, our internatio­nal department.

• Coordinati­on This is something essential in our work as our team works together, avoiding delays or time wasted during a reproducti­on treatment, with consequent benefits for our patients.

• Success rates Our results are above the averages published in the Spanish Fertility Society.

OUR PROFESSION­AL TEAM

The most important asset of any health structure should be the staff. At the at UR Vistahermo­sa in Hospital Clínica Vistahermo­sa, we are proud of our team and we have worked together for many years. Our rate of temporary employment is low, as all our colleagues feel happy with what they do and don’t wish to work anywhere else.

This is essential in the field of reproducti­on as we deal with people. This is why it is important to work with a team which conveys confidence, experience and knowledge. Doctor López Gálvez, director and founder of the Unit, guides our team of gynaecolog­ists, geneticist­s, embryologi­sts, andrologis­ts, anaestheti­sts, nurses, auxiliary nurses, administra­tion stuff, psychologi­sts and our personnel of internatio­nal-external department.

Our aims • To guarantee the most effective treatment • To give a personal treatment • To reduce the level of anxiety • To transmit hospital safety • To act transparen­tly and ethically • To innovate and evolve regularly
