Experts in fertility care

Our specialists at Guy’s Assisted Conception Unit have been advancing fertility medicine for over 30 years . We are internationally renowned as pioneers in this field and care for over 2,000 patients each year.

We offer the full range of fertility care, including assisted conception (IVF, ICSI and IUI), fertility preservation (embryo and sperm storage), embryo selection and implantation, and pre- implantation genetic testing (PGT). We only draw on precise, evidence-based approaches to best support our patients with personalised care and never offer fertility treatment ‘add-ons’, unlike other providers.

We pride ourselves in delivering the highest standards. We have received a rating of 5/5 from our patients as well as the Human Fertilisations and Embryology Authority, the UK’s fertility regulator.

Pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT)

Our PGT service is available to anyone at risk of having a child with an inherited (genetic) or chromosomal disorder, such as sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis or Huntington’s disease.

We test for over 300 genetic conditions at our state-of-the-art facilities, with our PGT service being the largest in the UK. We are proud that our centre has helped over 1,000 babies being born following PGT at Guy’s Hospital.

Fertility counselling

Every fertility journey is different, and we understand the emotional challenges and the toll this can have on our patients’ health and wellbeing. We include fertility counselling as a standard part of treatment packages, to help patients feel more confident in decision-making.

Fertility care for everyone

We welcome all patients who wish to explore fertility care. In addition to heterosexual couples, our specialists regularly see same-sex couples and individuals seeking to use donor eggs or sperm to conceive. We are also experts in transgender fertility care and fertility preservation for cancer patients and those looking to delay having children until later in life.

Multidisciplinary health services

Our private fertility services are delivered as part of Guy’s and St Thomas’ Specialist Care. This means that our patients benefit from the expertise and excellence of 5 world-leading hospitals.

With our specialisms including maternity and children’s care, we can provide end-to-end support during pregnancy, birth and onwards for mother and baby. Our central London location at Guy’s Hospital also ensures convenient fertility care for our patients.

Majority of the time we were seen on time or with very minor delays. The place is always immaculately clean and lots of space for waiting area. The free water is a nice touch.

Consistently exceptional care. Staff are incredibly knowledgeable and tailored all of their interventions to my individual needs, which was not always easy considering my complex health history and social circumstances. I’ve recommended this clinic to everyone who I know to be seeking fertility treatment, and there have thankfully been some incredible success stories!

Dr El-Toukhy has helped me conceive my healthy baby girl after first time privately. The NHS service was not helpful as it does not cater to each individual’s needs but the private service has been fantastic. You get the best care using the consultant service and Dr El-Toukhy has helped me and my husband to realise our dreams of having a family.

Wait time was terrible. Every time I was asked to arrive earlier they would be running hours behind.

After a good experience with Guy’s ACU on an NHS cycle, I decided to stay with Guy’s for my private cycle and went for consultant-led care with Dr. El-Toukhy. I cannot express how grateful we are to Dr. El-Toukhy because we somehow managed to get pregnant and I’m now at 9 weeks, even though our chances were on the lower side, but not terrible. The service was also amazing as I had Dr. El-Toukhy’s phone number and could text him with any issue and get a reply or a call in less than half an hour. One time he even contacted me at 10.30 pm to communicate test results which brought us a lot of relief. That man works non-stop and he cares so much; that’s the type of doctor you’d want on your side. Compared to my NHS cycle, I was also so pleased to get such close monitoring during my stims phase. I had 6 scans in total, one every 2 days basically, so we were able to adjust the dose repeatedly. Thoroughly recommended!

Other than the staff at reception who hardly had a smile on their face, as soon as we were through the doors the medical team were excellent and helpful when needed.
