First visit
A first visit lasts about 1-2 hours. This may vary depending on each patient.
It can be held at out centre or via videoconference and it is completely free of charge.
Face to face first visit:
- You will meet us at our clinic in Bilbao. If treatment involves your partner´s sperm, we will ask him to leave a sample to analyze and that, depending on the case, may be cryopreserved for a later use. You can decide whether you continue your treatment at the clinic or from your home country with a gynecologist of your choice. If you chose the second option, you will only need to come for 1 to 6 days, depending on the thecnique and treatment chosen.
First visit via videoconference/telephone:
- It will be performed via Skype or telephone. We will ask you to complete a medical history from beforehand and will discuss your case and treatment options during the call.
Just make an appointment specifying whether you prefer a face-to-face or videoconference first visit and we will give you information on how to proceed.
During your visit, the gynaecologist will interview you and your partner about your family and personal medical history.
When held at our center, we will perform a pelvic ultrasound scan in order to assess the condition of your uterus and ovaries.
We will ask you to send any medical reports you may have before the date of your first consultation. It is important we obtain full information and details on your medical history as well as your partner´s in order to reach an accurate diagnosis and hence, offer you the best possible treatment.
After your first visit and once your medical reports and family history are assessed, we may request further testing.
When you come to our centre for your first visit, you have the option of having the necessary blood tests done at the clinic.
It is also possible to perform other supplementary studies here in Bilbao at our partner centres upon request.
