After conducting extensive research on fertility clinics across Europe and attending several open days in the UK, I ultimately selected EmBio in Athens for my treatment. I have been thoroughly impressed by the team's utmost professionalism. I'd like to extend special gratitude to Sevi, who has diligently managed my case from the outset. Throughout my experience, I felt valued as an individual rather than merely a name on a booking list—something I didn't quite sense at other clinics. Communication has been really efficient, and my time in Athens has been both smooth and enjoyable. For those considering treatment abroad, particularly those not from Greece, I must commend both the Greek public and private health services. Additionally, for individuals like myself who have a fear of needles, I want to highlight the support provided by pharmacies here. Even if you haven't purchased your medications from them, they are obliging and willing to assist with injections. This added reassurance has been invaluable to me. Moreover, during my stay in Athens, I've had encounters with individuals associated with the Ministry of Health in Greece. Upon learning that I am receiving services from EmBio, I was assured that I am in exceptionally good hands. It's affirming to know that I've chosen a clinic held in high regard by local healthcare authorities. I want to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone at EmBio Clinic who has assisted me on my journey so far. Going through fertility treatments can feel vulnerable and delicate, but you have made things a hundred times easier. Thank you! Kind regards, Liu
I contacted EmBIO last year from Ireland after having 2 miscarriages and 5 failed attempts at IVF here at home. From the very first email the difference in the care between EmBIO and clinics in UK was unbelievable. Everyone from call center, coordinator, doctor we spoke were all just amazing. We were treated like family, they were always someone to contact on every step of the procedure After being told by our doctor that donor eggs was my only real next option they said we had hope conceiving with own eggs and it was more important to do some investigations for miscarriages and failed IVF transfers. I sent a sample to EmBIO and had the Microbioma test where it was discovered I had an infection in my uterus which I then just took a course of antibiotics for. We arranged to travel to Athens for a 3 day visit for these investigations but unfortunately due to the pandemic restrictions our flights were cancelled 4 times. Throughout this EMBIO team was always so understanding and helpful when we had to rearrange each time. In April we discovered that I was pregnant naturally again. When I contacted EmBIO, they could have easily just wished me luck and that be the end of our contact but instead they sent me prescriptions to support the pregnancy and I am now 14 weeks pregnant after over 5 years of trying to get this far. Although we never got to the clinic in the end I still think they had a hand in getting us this far and most of all they were the only ones that gave us hope which is so important. The whole EmBIO team will forever hold a special place in our hearts and I wouldn't hesitate recommending them to anyone considering fertility treatment. Thank you Dr Paraschos and Embio team!!
Best decision we made was to work with the incredible Dr. Thanos Paraschos & the wonderful team at the Embio fertility clinic! We’ve had a very long journey and they made this experience easy & so enjoyable! I cannot recommend Dr. Thanos Paraschos enough and my husband and I couldn’t be happier with their service and tremendous care and phenomenal bedside manner! They made us feel right at home while we traveled all the way from Colorado, USA. Our coordinator Sevi Lama was truly wonderful, beyond attentive and just amazing!! The entire Embio team holds a special place in my heart and I’ll never forget this precious time spent with them. This memory will be one that I cherish & look back on with delight. Thank you again to Dr. Paraschos, Sevi Lama and the lovely Embio team, I’m lucky to have had this next chapter be such a great one🤍 I wish I could take you all back with me.
Embio IVF and Dr. Paraschos turned this whole horrible process into a pleasant one. I am horrible with names, so I am sorry I can thank my team for the egg retrieval personally, but I have to say they made me and my husband feel so warm and comfortable. Everyone was friendly and kind. They took the time to know my husband's name, which no one had bothered to at our hospital so far. They explained everything clearly and my midwife Thalia literally held my hand until I fell asleep. The anesthesiologist was so kind and talked to me the whole time relaxing me. Even registration made the process smooth and a pleasant experience. I am not disappointed at all on our decision to go through them and I am sorry for the people who gave bad reviews but I work in the medical field and these guys go above and beyond for you!! I am now pregnant with twins thankfully to Dr Paraschos and the Embio team !!!
This clinic is exceptional in every way. The care and service provided by EMBIO was exquisite and our experience here was 100 % positive. The staff are all amazing, they are warm, kind, sensitive and genuinely care. It was a place we actually looked forward to going to, rather than dreading, compared to fertility clinics to the UK Honestly UK clinics could learn a lot from EMBIO, as here they treat you personally. It was like a breath of fresh air coming here. Our journey was a long one over several years, starting out in the Uk then coming to Greece, but thanks to their responsive and innovative approach we now have 3 children including twins! They really will try everything for you and think outside the box when things don’t work. And they did everything possible to make the whole experience as pleasant and easy as possible, often in challenging circumstances. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will always hold a special place in my heart for the clinic and its staff for everything they have done for us to achieve the family we always dreamed of.
