Herts and Essex Fertility Centre vs London Women's Clinic: what they publish

An independent centre outside London against a London group, both publishing a readable cycle fee. Every figure below was read from the clinic's own fee page — nothing here is estimated, and where a clinic does not publish a price the row says so.

Outcome figures are HFEA's own, for births per embryo transferred, excluding donor eggs and PGT-A. Most clinics sit within the national range, and HFEA advises against choosing a clinic on published rates alone — patient age, diagnosis and how many embryos a clinic transfers all move the number. Read each figure against the national average and the range shown, not against another clinic.

Check NHS funding first

Common questions

Do Herts and Essex Fertility Centre and London Women's Clinic publish their IVF prices?
Both do, which is why they can be compared here — only 40 of the 109 HFEA-licensed UK clinics publish a fee schedule that can be read. Herts and Essex Fertility Centre publishes 10 treatment prices covering 1 licensed site; London Women's Clinic publishes 11 covering 4. Every figure on this page was read from their own fee pages and is dated.
Are these the full cost of treatment?
No. A published cycle fee normally covers consultation, monitoring, egg collection, fertilisation and transfer. Stimulation drugs are almost always charged on top, and freezing, storage, ICSI and genetic testing are usually separate line items. Ask either clinic for a full itemised quote before committing.
Why do some rows show a range rather than one price?
Either the operator prices tiered packages, or its branches price differently. Both are real and neither is averaged away here. Where a figure is published only as a "from" price it is labelled as such, because a floor is not a fee.
