Recommendations for private karyotype testing?

Hello,
Hoping someone could recommend a UK clinic where DH and I could get karyotype testing done. London or vaguely South is easier.
We're having treatment abroad so would want to get this done as a standalone test.
Thanks in advance.

Hi I'm in the same situation going abroad for are next cycle and the clinic had requested results from karyotype for us both. I went to ivf matters which can arrange these to be done at a clinic in London at Wimpole street.

We had ours organised via uclh, but understand TDL on Wimpole St did the analysis.

Thank you both, in that case I'll check with TDL in Wimpole Street as DH bought the Examen sperm comet kit and TDL is one of the hubs where he can do the test.

Hi all, I'm also looking to do our 3rd cycle abroad. We have had 2 failed ICSI cycles and 2 spontaneous pregnancies but all of these ended in chemical pregnancies.
Since we have had implantation on each occasion they have suggested Karyotyping.
Has anyone had this done on the nhs?

Hi Día,
I haven't had this done on NHS.
I contacted TDL, it costs £360 for the testing (and £35 for the actual taking of blood).
I'm going to a clinic in Spain for treatment and they charge €100 for karyotype test so I'm just waiting and will have it done there.

Thanks for the info @ASandwichNamedKevin. It seems most likely we too will be having karyotyping done abroad too (Greece). They charging £200 for both of us. Just doesn't make sense to have to done here!

Definitely Dia, I'm having several other blood tests done too all much cheaper than I could have had here.
Good luck with it all.
