Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital – proud to partner with TwoDadsUK
At Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital, we’re passionate about helping people achieve their dream of becoming a family and we understand the importance of choosing the fertility clinic that’s right for you and your journey.
We opened the clinic in May 2022 expanding the expertise of the Lister Fertility Clinic to the heart of London, under the leadership of Mr Rehan Salim, Consultant Gynaecologist and sub-specialist in reproductive medicine.
Clinic Partners
We choose our clinic partners carefully but working with TwoDadsUK was an easy decision for us due to the work they do to help people grow their families and their vision to change the landscape of surrogacy through My Surrogacy Journey. At Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive clinic and we know that Michael and Wes will help the LGBTQ+ community especially hear more about how we can support your individual journeys.
Our key treatments
At Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital, we provide a range of fertility treatments. For patients who choose surrogacy, we provide a dedicated surrogacy lead who co-ordinates the whole process. We also offer reciprocal IVF, IUI, IMSI, Egg freezing and Egg donation.
And if you’re not ready to or not sure you want to grow your family yet, we have a range of fertility testing available for individuals and couples so you can find out more about your fertility health and discuss fertility preservation options.
Our team
We have four doctors dedicated to your care at the clinic. Mr Rehan Salim, Dr Linda Farahani, Miss Monica Mittel and Mr Suks Minhas. You can find out more about them and the expertise the offer here.
Counselling
We recognise how difficult it can be to cope with the emotional and psychological distress experienced routinely during fertility treatment, which at times can feel overwhelming. Research has shown that 90% of fertility patients experience symptoms of depression or anxiety relating to their fertility problems (Fertility Network UK 2016). That’s why we’re pleased to offer all our patients access to counselling with our dedicated team of counsellors.
