Anyone had IVF with Bupa?

Has anyone used Bupa for IVF recently? What was your experience and how long did it take?

We are just starting the process and based in central London. Decided to go private instead of NHS in the hope that it is much quicker…

Thanks! 😊

Hey! I am actually looking into this too and also based in London, looks like the options are TFP Boston Place or CARE London so trying to get reviews of each. Have you found others that you can use with Bupa?

Hey! Nice to speak to someone in the same boat! The other one Bupa offered me was Lister Fertility Clinic. I did a bit of research yesterday and called each clinic for a chat and to ask about costs and waiting times. CARE is the cheapest (around £6k) and the other two are a similar price (around £7k) and that includes everything including meds etc. Waiting times for all 3 clinics are very similar too, Lister did say they could get me in next week and if I was happy to start the process immediately! Which got me really excited 😆 but still debating whether to go through NHS first because I’ve heard if you go private first sometimes NHS won’t offer you it. Have you heard about this? I think it depends on your location so I need to check. Where in London are you? We’re based in Greenwich. How long have you been trying? I’m sick of seeing BFN’s every month x

Not BUPA but my best friend is currently going through IVF with a company called “ABC”, it was the quickest time line and also one of the cheapest she found, plus does payment plans so it’s not a case of forking it all out at once. Hers is in Sheffield but I’m sure she said they have clinics across the country so maybe worth having a look to see if London has one! X

Amazing, thank you! I’ll have a look x
