We have been with Lister for 18 months but never been very happy with them and now it is time for us to change. Have spent hours on the HFEA website looking at all of the stats, as well as on websites of the clinics themselves. Based in Herts but very happy to travel to London or beyond.
It's just impossible to know what to do. Experience with Lister has been poor and so that's probably making it harder. Cost is not a key factor for us. I have just turned 40 (few days ago) and had two full rounds of IVF so far (5 transfers in total), with two BFPs from fresh and 3 miscarriages from frozen. We have the option of using my partner (same sex) instead, she is only early 30s, but I would like one more go - so I need to get it right. But ideally we would like a good clinic for both of us so we don't have to move again.
How have other people decided? With Lister we went word of mouth and I really have not enjoyed the experience at all (too impersonal and disorganised, plus feels like you are on a conveyor belt and they don't care or amend the treatments specifically for you, just give everyone pretty much the same - plus aftercare is literally zero). HELLLLP!!!
