Sydney IVF Raises Prices

[slyder]

Willow, fair call - I was just theorising, but your story is encouraging.

From a quick glance at their claimed stats a while ago I think they can back their claims, but for us with a fairly clear cut case I'm just not sure it's worth it.

One of the BB girls reminded me of some of the facts for the only other clinic here which is 400km away (round trip). Like blizzy, the days off work and extra travel costs would negate to some extent the big cost savings, but it may be worth it. Hell, this other website says a full stim cycle is only worth $450 with full rebate and a FET only $30 with a full rebate. How is that even possible!

Have you considered the Public IVF clinic that runs from RPA at Camperdown?

They work in conjunction with SIVF and the total that YOU PAY UPFRONT for a stimulated cycle is only around $1160 (with safety-net you can get up to a further $500 back from medicare once the cycle is finished) ( NOTE: blood and synarel is not included)

Frozen Transfer costs around $200 + cost of pressaries & blood tests etc

I looked into SIVF originally and was devastated at their prices as I knew that I couldn't afford it (let alone have more than one cycle)....My GP was the one that knew about RPA and referred me then when I mentioned it to her.

You just need a referral from your GP however the wait to see the specialist is around 2-3 months but then once that is over you can start straight away!!

I highly recommend them and am one of their success stories
