Valentina Mauro - FINAL-min

Dr Mauro is a Senior Consultant specialist in Gynaecology and Reproductive Medicine and has worked in the field of infertility for over 20 years.

Dr Mauro is a trainer for the British Fertility Society (BFS) in all the modules offered and has successfully completed the training of other doctors who have inherited the same passion and commitment to the field of fertility. As a member of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), Valentina has contributed to guidelines for the safe practice of fertility treatment.

The fast-paced technological advancement in the field of Reproduction, together with the changes in society motivated Dr Mauro to pursue a master’s degree in medical law and Bioethics, thereby addressing difficult cases and clinical scenarios, as well as placing such cases in the context of the wider regulatory framework.

Dr Mauro held the position of Regional Lead Clinician for Cambridgeshire; however, she recently relinquished the role in favour of Leading a new specialist service, in line with her expertise, which encompasses Donation, Surrogacy and Fertility preservation. Since her appointment, Dr Mauro has spearheaded the Bourn Hall donation programme, shortening the recipient’s waiting list significantly, whilst maintaining the continuity of care of the patient and the success rates.

Dr Mauro is also leading a strong initiative to improve the processes for fertility preservation in cancer patients as well as strengthening the surrogacy programme at Bourn Hall through a solid legal collaboration.

Dr Mauro is a competent, dedicated doctor and many of her patients are still in touch with her because of her skills and competence, but also because of her warm, caring, and considerate nature.

Dr Mauro immensely enjoys the sea and this passion has led her to undertake a scuba diving course, which she hopes to pursue in open waters abroad next summer.

“We went to an open evening at Bourn Hall Wickford and came away feeling really positive about the place. The staff were really friendly and the presentation was clear about the statistics regarding success rates and live birth rates; their data was very transparent. We came away feeling like we would really be looked after.”
