About
The Fertility Show 2026 We’re delighted to be exhibiting at The Fertility Show on 16 -17 May 2026 in Olympia, London. Join us at stand C20 to talk to our experts about our comprehensive range of treatments, personalised care and how we can support your fertility journey. Our consultant gynaecologists and sub-specialists in reproductive medicine, Dr Julia Kopeika and Mr Tarek El-Toukhy, will be joining the speaker programme and providing their expert guidance on ‘Fertility Treatment Plans and Add-ons’ and ‘Age and Fertility’. Tickets can be booked via The Fertility Show website - www.fertilityshow.co.uk/ticket-info. Experts in fertility care Our specialists at Guy’s Assisted Conception Unit have been advancing fertility medicine for over 30 years . We are internationally renowned as pioneers in this field and care for over 2,000 patients each year. We offer the full range of fertility care, including assisted conception (IVF, ICSI and IUI), fertility preservation (embryo and sperm storage), embryo selection and implantation, and pre- implantation genetic testing (PGT). We only draw on precise, evidence-based approaches to best support our patients with personalised care and never offer fertility treatment ‘add-ons’, unlike other providers. We pride ourselves in delivering the highest standards. We have received a rating of 5/5 from our patients as well as the Human Fertilisations and Embryology Authority, the UK’s fertility regulator. Pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT) Our PGT service is available to anyone at risk of having a child with an inherited (genetic) or chromosomal disorder, such as sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis or Huntington’s disease. We test for over 300 genetic conditions at our state-of-the-art facilities, with our PGT service being the largest in the UK. We are proud that our centre has helped over 1,000 babies being born following PGT at Guy’s Hospital. Fertility counselling Every fertility journey is different, and we understand the emotional challenges and the toll this can have on our patients’ health and wellbeing. We include fertility counselling as a standard part of treatment packages, to help patients feel more confident in decision-making. Fertility care for everyone We welcome all patients who wish to explore fertility care. In addition to heterosexual couples, our specialists regularly see same-sex couples and individuals seeking to use donor eggs or sperm to conceive. We are also experts in transgender fertility care and fertility preservation for cancer patients and those looking to delay having children until later in life. Multidisciplinary health services Our private fertility services are delivered as part of Guy’s and St Thomas’ Specialist Care. This means that our patients benefit from the expertise and excellence of 5 world-leading hospitals. With our specialisms including maternity and children’s care, we can provide end-to-end support during pregnancy, birth and onwards for mother and baby. Our central London location at Guy’s Hospital also ensures convenient fertility care for our patients.
