And that's all important to clinics.
Their success rates, they're everything.
That's what makes high-profile fertility doctors extremely competitive with each other.
And that is something I go into in the book.
What has that actually led to in practice?
I don't know.
I have talked to fertility doctors who admit that the competitive element is a problem and they sort of accuse their rivals of acting in unethical ways.
And they say, look, I'd never do that.
Obviously, this isn't a charity.
A clinic is a profit-making enterprise, but I would never put the needs of my patients behind financial gain.
So they are aware of it.
They're
I'm not a doctor, so I can't judge what they're doing with a sort of clinical eye.
What I do know is that, for example, in London, there are some clinics who are big clinics and they have good reputations, but they're known for pushing treatments on patients.
on patients when they're probably not needed.
Add-ons, for example, all these things that you can pay extra for, or, you know, hidden costs, like they'll advertise a certain price on their website, but then they won't include the medication or some of the testing that has to be done, certainly not the storage costs.
So you go in thinking you're going to pay a certain amount, and then it's like three times that amount.
in some cases so i think it's very difficult to judge which clinics are ethical or not and i don't even think most people care that much as long as they get a baby
Yeah, absolutely.
And it's really interesting actually looking at Google reviews of fertility clinics because I don't know if you're familiar with the J-curve phenomenon of most online Google reviews are generally like very bad or very good because it's only people who are kind of really motivated to write the review who are going to do that.
