Nadezhda Fertility Clinic (1)
Infertility Clinic, Bulgaria

Hi folks,              I am a female living in the Uk, in Northern Ireland. I am in a same sex partnership and in my late
thirties. I wanted a child before I was too old to try, and I obviously needed treatment with donor sperm. I had my partner's 100%
backing so I priced treatments in the UK. The prices were so expensive I decided to look abroad. I had been to Bulgaria and to Sofia
before so I contacted the Nadezhda clinic in Sofia, Bulgaria through Medspa and received an email quickly back from Iva. Iva works for
Medspa and is Bulgarian but speaks fluent English. Iva answered all our questions and provided a wealth of information to me. Due to my
age, I looked at IVF treatment but decided on IUI treatment stimulated by hormones, as I was  otherwise healthy. I was given a choice
of donors so I picked one I thought was suitable. I booked time off work, for stimulated treatment is about 10 days, 3 or 4 I think, if
not stimulated. I booked flights, Ryanair and Easyjet fly to Bulgaria and there are other cheap flights if you're prepared to stop over.
My partner and I flew from Dublin. Assisted by Iva, I booked a suitable hotel close to the clinic. When my partner and I arrived in
Bulgaria, I was met by Julia, Iva's colleague who took us to our hotel. Each day that we attended the clinic, we were lifted by and
accompanied by Iva, Julia or Sissi, really lovely ladies who all speak fluent English and who together run Medspa. I met the fertility
doctor, Doctor Stamenov who again spoke fluent English and was very friendly. The clinic was clean and very popular, and the only reason
I have given 4 out of 5 stars is because very soon Dr Stamenov will be working from a brand new private clinic which will be much bigger
and even more modern. I was monitored closely and got inseminated after 6 days. Two weeks later, at home, I tested, and I'm pregnant
from my first try. I knew the clients of Doctor Stamenov thought very highly of him and now I know why. He clearly is a genius at his
job. I went to Bulgaria with nothing but hope and have come back with a baby and three new friends in Iva, Sissi and Julia and of course
Doctor Stamenov, who I will be forever grateful to. I can't recommend it enough... :)
