What Makes CREI Doctors Special?

CREI members must devote at least 15 years to specialist medical training and patient care before achieving subspecialty certification.

Membership in CREI is strictly limited to specialists who have been certified in the subspecialty of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (CREI) by the Royal Australian & New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RANZCOG). 

Although many doctors may provide care for infertility, fewer than 80 fertility specialists have achieved the very special distinction of CREI membership in Australia. A CREI specialist has the training, experience, and resources to provide patients with the highest level of care for their reproductive health.

Fertility Services offered

Fertility Assessment

A thorough clinical assessment, along with a range of tests, helps us get to the heart of your fertility issues. 

IUI

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a type of fertility treatment that involves placing a large number of sperm directly into the uterus to increase the chances that the sperm and egg will meet.

IVF

Stands for In Vitro Fertilisation. In essence, it’s a procedure designed to overcome infertility by starting a pregnancy outside the womb (i.e. in vitro).

Egg Freezing

Keeping some of your younger, better-quality eggs ‘on ice’ just in case you run into fertility problems later in life – can help safeguard your future fertility. 

Donor Sperm

It is now very common for Assigned Females at Birth (AFAB) to use donor sperm to help them conceive. Donor sperm can also help heterosexual couples struggling with infertility due to sperm abnormalities.
