IVF Specialist
IVF Specialists are medical doctors who diagnose and treat infertility and then help their clients have a baby using in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatments. They work in hospitals, fertility clinics, specialist medical practices and egg/sperm donor centres. IVF Specialists are also called Fertility Specialists.
As an IVF Specialist you could be holding an initial consultation with a same-sex couple wanting to start a family, evaluating a series of fertility tests and explaining the results to a client, recommending a course of IVF to a young couple, carrying out egg collection and embryo transfer procedures, giving directions to a Fertility Nurse who is performing blood tests, or attending a conference of the Fertility Society of Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ).
The in vitro fertilisation (IVF) journey can be highly emotional and stressful for patients, so you’ll need a well-developed sense of empathy and compassion to succeed in this occupation.
