Newlife IVF - Box Hill Reviews

My husband and I underwent IVF at Newlife with Dr Chris Russell as our fertility specialist. It was a big decision after years of trying to become pregnant and we are so incredibly happy we did. We have recently been blessed with our baby boy, and we are so incredibly grateful for the outstanding care we received at Newlife. What could have been a stressful situation was made so much easier with the amazing organisation and support of the team there at Newlife. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing fertility treatment.... (Show more)

We cannot say enough great things about Newlife IVF, they felt like a family and worked with us throughout our IVF journey. The staff and the doctors were truly amazing, understanding, and compassionate. They are with you every step of the way. Nurse constantly informed us of what was happing, what the next steps in our process were, and expertly handle any questions or concerns me and my partner had. I will absolutely be recommending to the couple who are struggling to conceive to make an appointment with Newlife IVF and experiences the differences.... (Show more)

Dear Mehrnaz, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Due to patient confidentiality, we cannot discuss the specifics of your treatment here. However, please note, medical practitioners in Australia cannot prescribe medications without seeing a patient first and determining an appropriate treatment. They also cannot prescribe medication via email. A patient’s general practitioner is best placed to deal with a pregnancy that has occurred naturally, and not under the care of our specialist doctors, and are most available in an emergency. We take the experiences of our patients seriously and care for your ongoing wellbeing. If you would like to discuss the care you received further, please call (03) 8080 8933. Best wishes for the rest of your pregnancy. Regards, the Newlife IVF team

I was introduced to new life through my long time doctor Chris Russell. Chris has assisted me with a PCOS diagnosis and management as well as fertility advice that comes along with this condition as well as blocked fallopian tubes. The whole IVF process was explained thoroughly from the first appointment. I completed two egg collections and two transfers. The egg collection prcoess can be an unknown for most people but the team were amazing and caring throughout the process. From the Dr completing the collection to the nurses looking after you for your procedure and the embryologists communication in subsequent days. The organisation as a whole is professional and experienced. What is most exciting is that we are raising our daughter who is a New life baby and that's the result we want to share. The time and effort is rewarded a million times over!... (Show more)

After going through 9 years of Infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss and feeling let down with bulk billing clinics my husband and I were at a loss. After doing lots of research into different specialists, that specialised in my numerous health conditions, we came across Newlife IVF and in particular Dr Chris Russell. From our first appointment we were made to feel welcome, heard, comfortable and validated. All the staff at Newlife went above and beyond with our cycles and every interaction was pleasant and really helpful. In particular Dr Russell made himself available when we had questions or needed more clarification on something. We are now 12w6d with our miracle baby and couldn't be more grateful and thankful to Dr Russell for making this dream a reality. We will be forever grateful to Dr Russell and everyone at Newlife IVF.... (Show more)

Worst experience…with IUI procedure. Messed up everything and no proper communication eventhough conveyed them multiple times that please give me proper confirmed information about every details but still no one . Every nurse told me different things! Such a nightmare .. can’t get over this experience. Please do not rely on them completely.... (Show more)

Harinder Sandhu - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Dear Harinder, We appreciate the feedback you have provided in addition to the communications we have had with you on this matter. We acknowledge that it is frustrating when the location and/or time of a procedure changes and we do try to avoid this happening unnecessarily. For patient confidentiality, we cannot discuss the particulars of your treatment here. However, it is important to note that the timing of procedures may change at short notice depending on individual results. This is to ensure their optimal timing to give patients the best chance of a successful outcome. Where there is potential for this to happen, it is communicated to the patient beforehand and documented in the notes. Newlife’s fertility nurses are known for their attentiveness. More than one nurse may reach out to a patient throughout their care with us in order to ensure timely communications. A Newlife fertility specialist will be in touch on Friday as planned to further discuss your care and experience. Kind regards, The Newlife IVF team

I cannot recommend Newlife more highly- everyone in the team from admin, to nurses, to the doctors, are friendly, professional and respectful. Dr Hope was amazing, she took the time to understand our situation and tailor a successful treatment plan us. Thank you Newlife for helping us start our family, we couldn’t be happier... (Show more)

Outstanding care and customer service.

Alexandra Mow - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

After one year and a very traumatic experience with Melbourne IVF, we moved to Newlife IVF with Chris Russell. It was a world away from the call centres, answering machines and queues with flashing buzzers at MIVF. Chris (and his team Jan, Rachel and Tash) were incredible and made me feel so comfortable despite my anxiety and nerves (given previous experience). When we moved to Newlife for the IVF cycles the team blew us both away. The service is so personal, so supportive and we really felt as if we had a support network around us, and were always comfortable with what was happening and why. Worth noting their fees are significantly cheaper than the ‘big’ players too, and they are open and transparent about all costs upfront. Sadly two rounds of IVF and two transfers didn’t work for us, but by a miracle we subsequently fell pregnant spontaneously in the following month while on a ‘break’. The continuous care by Chris as an OB into pregnancy was so valuable too. We recommend Newlife IVF and Chris Russell to all of our friends, IVF is a scary, difficult and emotional process and I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Newlife if we found ourselves in that position again....

What could have been a really stressful experience was made so smooth by the entire team at Newlife and Dr. Chris Russell. We were kept informed, supported, all appointments were on time and any time I had any questions they went out of their way to make sure I knew what was happening. We almost went with a different clinic who were much more expensive, much less helpful and has lesser technology and am thrilled we switched. Could not recommend them higher!... (Show more)

Truly thankful to Newlife IVF nurses and doctors, especially Dr. Sameer Jatka who helped my husband and I navigate this IVF journey. The level of care and attention I was given throughout my procedures has been very impressive and personable.

Chris and the staff at Newlife were so kind, calm, and caring throughout the process, we found it very reassuring that we were in such safe hands, and felt like we could ask any questions and received great care that felt personal, which was wonderful when going through such a big process physically and emotionally. Lovely staff.... (Show more)

Thank you so much to the Newlife team who helped me through my fertility journey. A special thank you to Dr. Chris Russell. You are amazing. Dr. Russell is professional, caring and provided me with the best advice for my situation. Newlife took the time to care for me and it made all the difference.

We were one of the earliest couples going through the IVF process at this clinic and we felt very well taken care of at each step. They used information from previous failed attempts through another clinic to help determine exactly what we needed and we were successful on the first attempt with Newlife. Highly recommend if you can afford non bulk-billed.... (Show more)

We had an amazing experience at New Life IVF. Every single person was so supportive, gentle and understanding. We felt like we were supported every step of the way from the initial consult to meeting the embryologist and fertility specialist. We saw Dr Chris Russell who was extremely caring and professional. We would highly recommend New Life for anyone needed fertility assistance.... (Show more)
