The Hidden Risks of IVF Concierge Clinics & Why North Cyprus May Be a Better Solution

💔 One £15,000 IVF Tragedy That Could Have Been Avoided

After four failed IVF attempts and five miscarriages, Syreeta Sandhu paid £15,000 to Apricity, an online concierge clinic. But when the clinic collapsed, her appointments vanished, money was gone, and King's Fertility had no records-leaving her “on her knees”.

⚠️ Why Concierge Clinics Can Be Dangerous

These services match patients with donors and clinics, but don’t provide treatment themselves. They fall outside HFEA regulation, meaning if they go bankrupt, you're left uninsured and unsupported.

📉 Demand Is Up, Protections Are Not

UK private IVF cycles nearly reached 59,000 in 2022. But this surge fosters unregulated intermediaries. Without oversight, vulnerable patients bear the brunt of these failures.

👁️ Real Stories, Real Harm

• Syreeta: £15,000 gone.

• Beth (32, Belfast): Lost £1,300, precious time, and emotional trust.

• “Jonathan”: Told there’s “no realistic chance” of refunding his £10,000.
