Referral centres
The level of funding varies significantly across the region, so we recommend you check your situation using the postcode of your GP surgery. We can advise you on the latest provision – just get in touch with us.
NHS referral centres
Below are the East of England and East Midlands NHS referral centres for specialised fertility services, known as secondary providers. If your GP thinks you need help to conceive, they will usually refer you to one of these hospitals for fertility tests and diagnosis. If the consultant at the hospital decides that you need IVF treatment, and the NHS in your area is funding IVF, you may be eligible for NHS-funded treatment and you can chose to be referred to Bourn Hall.
