The 12 Best Fertility Clinics in Sydney

Prologue suits patients who would like the same small team to take them from fertility treatment through to pregnancy care. Founder Dr Justin Tucker is an obstetrician and fertility specialist with a master's degree in reproductive medicine, and the practice uses the laboratory and scientists of Monash IVF. Services include IVF, donor treatment, egg freezing and ovulation tracking, followed by private obstetric care with an endorsed midwife. Rooms are on Macquarie Street, in Bondi Junction and at the Mater in North Sydney.

Dr Dave Listijono is a good match for patients whose fertility problems may need surgery, such as endometriosis. An obstetrician, gynaecologist and fertility specialist with FRANZCOG and a PhD, he has a particular interest in laparoscopic surgery. He offers IVF and fertility treatment alongside gynaecology and obstetrics, so the same doctor can follow a pregnancy after treatment. He consults in Westmead, Kogarah and the CBD, in English, Mandarin or Bahasa Indonesia.

Dr Rachael Rodgers is well suited to complex cases, including genetic conditions, severe endometriosis, cancer and recurrent miscarriage. A FRANZCOG specialist with the CREI subspecialty, she previously led reproductive medicine at the Royal Hospital for Women and founded its PGT-M program. She works only in fertility, in partnership with IVF Australia, and personally performs her patients' egg collections and embryo transfers. Rooms are at BMA House on Macquarie Street and in Bondi Junction.

Connect IVF is aimed at people for whom cost is the main barrier to treatment. The clinic on Bridge Street in the CBD presents itself as a bulk-billed, lower-cost alternative to the larger IVF groups. Medical director Dr Julie Lukic leads a small team with fertility specialist Dr Shree Mane and gynaecologist Dr James Brown. Treatments cover ovulation tracking and induction, IUI, IVF, ICSI and frozen embryo transfers, with donor services also available.

Adora Fertility suits couples and individuals who want IVF at a lower cost without leaving the inner city. The Surry Hills clinic, a five-minute walk from Central Station, offers everything from ovulation tracking and induction to IVF and ICSI, donor conception and fertility preservation. Its fertility specialists all hold the CREI certificate in reproductive endocrinology and infertility, and fertility GPs also see patients. Blood tests and ultrasounds during a cycle are done by a pathology provider on site.

Dr Mark Livingstone suits patients who want a long-serving fertility specialist within one of Sydney's larger IVF groups. He has practised as a fertility specialist since 1996, holds the CREI subspecialty and a master's in human reproduction and genetics, and is clinical group medical director of Genea. His work covers infertility, recurrent miscarriage, IVF and genetic testing of embryos. Egg collections are scheduled on the day he judges right, weekends included.

The Fertility Centre is a convenient option for south-west Sydney patients looking for lower-cost IVF close to home. Its Liverpool clinic on Moore Street provides fertility assessments, consultations, blood tests, ultrasounds and IVF and ICSI treatment in one location. The clinic is backed by Virtus Health and has a sister clinic in Nepean. Eligible patients may be able to use the NSW Government IVF rebate and a separate rebate for pre-IVF tests.

Dr Devora Lieberman suits patients who want treatment in a CBD clinic with its own day hospital. She is medical director of City Fertility in the Sydney CBD, holds FRANZCOG and a Harvard Master of Public Health, and has more than 20 years in reproductive medicine. She offers IVF, egg freezing, assisted insemination and ovulation induction. Procedures take place in the clinic's on-site day hospital, and she also consults in Frenchs Forest.

Life Fertility suits patients in the eastern suburbs and inner city who want a small clinic with several subspecialists. Its five doctors include Professor Michael Chapman, Associate Professor Rebecca Deans and Dr Shannon Zawada, and three of them hold the CREI subspecialty qualification. The Potts Point clinic offers fertility testing, IVF, egg freezing, donor programs, male fertility care and pathways for LGBTQIA+ patients. A second clinic in Kogarah serves the south.

Dr Ashley Fong suits patients whose fertility is tied to a hormonal condition such as PCOS, thyroid or pituitary disorders. A consultant endocrinologist with a master's degree in reproductive health sciences and human genetics, she treats both female and male infertility. She consults at Westmead Fertility Centre and at IVFAustralia, and offers telehealth appointments. Treatments include IVF and ICSI, frozen embryo transfer, ovulation induction and insemination, embryo genetic testing and egg freezing.

Fertility First is a strong fit for single parents by choice and LGBTQIA+ families who need donor eggs or sperm. Medical director Dr Anne Clark leads the Hurstville clinic with Dr Ying Li and Dr Anthony Marren, and each patient keeps the same point of contact throughout treatment. Services cover fertility testing for men and women, ovulation induction, IUI, IVF and fertility preservation. Appointments and procedures can be scheduled outside regular hours, including weekends.

Westmead Fertility Centre suits patients who want lower-cost treatment from a university-owned clinic. Owned by the University of Sydney and based inside Westmead Hospital, it reinvests its operating surplus in equipment, research and staff. The centre offers IVF, ICSI, IUI, frozen embryo transfers, ovulation induction and a donor program for sperm, eggs and embryos. Fertility preservation is available for men and women, and a remote cycle program is designed for patients outside Sydney.
