Question and Answer
Dr Gavin Sacks
Back in 1984, when tabloid newspapers were brandishing sensationalist headlines about ‘test tube babies,’ Gavin Sacks was sitting for his entrance exam at Cambridge University. While his intention to study medicine was clear, there was one question in the paper that stumped him: “What do you think is the future of in vitro fertilisation?” The question sowed the seed of curiosity in his mind, leading eventually to his lifelong quest to research and find solutions to the complexities of infertility. Gavin completed his medical training at both Cambridge and Oxford Universities, including a degree in experimental psychology. He then trained further in clinical medicine in Leeds, Glasgow, London and Sydney. At the same time, scientists were making groundbreaking advances in IVF technology. Gavin wanted to be part of this medical revolution that was bringing real hope to infertile couples. He went back to Oxford and embarked on his PhD in reproductive immunology. Initially focusing on pre-eclampsia, he was drawn again to the crucial role that embryo implantation has on the course of a pregnancy. This formed the basis for his subsequent internationally-renowned research on natural killer cells in women who repeatedly miscarry, have unexplained infertility or have repeated IVF failures. Gavin was a senior registrar in reproductive medicine in London when IVFAustralia invited him to Sydney. So impressed by Australia’s high standards in IVF, not to mention the sunshine and lifestyle, he and his family emigrated in 2005. Gavin is now a Clinical Director at IVFAustralia, as well as a Staff Specialist at St George Hospital and Royal Hospital for Women, and a Conjoint Associate Professor at UNSW. As a busy clinician he looks after couples with any reproductive issues, including family planning, gynae health, unexplained infertility, repeated miscarriage, polycystic ovaries, endometriosis, fibroids, irregular periods, sperm problems and all aspects of IVF. He is particularly interested in and referred for second opinions in cases of repeated IVF failure. He supervises a wide range of research projects including natural killer cells, recurrent miscarriage, IVF protocols and PGD (pre-implantation genetic diagnosis). He is an associate editor of the respected medical journal Human Reproduction.
Dr Gavin sacks has made our life so much better we have two beautiful boys because of him ❤️
There is no one else I would have rather been on my fertility journey with. We saw several doctors before settling with Dr Sacks and he was hands down the best doctor for me. He was forward thinking, progressive and willing to explore options others were too rigid to try. He was always one step ahead of what the next protocols were and I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to get me there.... (Show more)
5 star review for creating me.

Dr Sacks is an excellent Dr! Calm, friendly , humane and very driven he always made my husband and i feel welcomed, well cared for and supported. He always seemed genuine and understanding and encouraged us at times where we needed it. I have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful Dr who is very clever and knowledgeable and trust he will do all he can to ensure the safest and best outcome for his pts. Its been a pleasure being his patient and there are not enough stars for this fine professional. He is to be commended for his brilliant services and efforts and there are many families who will ALWAYS and forever think of him and thank their lucky stars for crossing paths with the outstanding Dr Sacks....

A genius. Got results "my baby" were other Drs couldn't not even help us get past day 5 eggs. Profession, sympathetic and driven.
A lovely caring doctor.
Before seeing Professor Gavin Sacks my husband and I have tried having a baby for 6 years and have had 6 miscarriages. Seen GPs other gynaecologist and they would all just gave me the same answer “your a mystery not sure what’s wrong, just try again”. Till one day I had to go to the hospital after my last miscarriage for a DnC and a wonderful nurse recommended I go see professor Gavin Sacks, he specialises in recurrent miscarriages. My husband and I decided to go see him and that was the best move we made. Professor Gavin Sacks didn’t waste no time, straight to finding out what was the cause ( I had a blockage ) so I went in for day surgery to unblock the blockage. He wouldn’t suggest ivf in our case incase we would pay all that money and still having a miscarriage not like other doctors all about money and not finding out the cause he showed care and understanding. My husband and I tried a few months after I was unblocked and I feel pregnant ....the best news, then I found out I was having triplets I was crying with joy after all the pain my husband and I went through. I’m happy to say I had a very healthy strong pregnancy and a wonderful successful birth and the 3 girls are 3 months old all very healthy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Professor Gavin Sacks he is the best.... (Show more)
Gavin always made my husband and I feel extremely comfortable and supported. He has a wonderfully calm demeanour, and seems to be sincere in his concern and care, which helps considerably when dealing with often trying and heartbreaking times. I can’t recommend Gavin highly enough....
