About clinic

IVF and Reproductive Genetics Center “FertiMed” was established in March 2006. At that time there were already a number of IVF centers in Moscow with quite modest results. By the middle of 2005 the group of specialists in different fields of medicine and biology gathered around Margarita Anshina with the ambitious idea to create the best IVF center in Russia. Their training and long term collaboration with the world's leading IVF centers in Austria, Germany, Israel and especially with Chicago Reproductive Genetics Institute and personally with Yuri Verlinsky allowed new team to achieve the good results from the very beginning.
