The goal of the clinic is to assist people who wish to be parents, by providing fertility treatment in order to bring children into the world. Thanks to their expertise and assistance over 5,000 babies have been born.

The main clinic in Brno is situated in a modern building that has a sleek and elegant design that gives it a futuristic look. Inside you will find light and warm colours everywhere, that have been proven to evoke a sense of calm and ease within people. Much like the outside, the inside is sleek and elegant, allowing you to see how stylish and clean everything is. There are some excellent views when looking out of the window as well, due to the clinic overlooking a valley that is sure to make you smile. Whilst you are there you will be treated to relaxing music, comfortable chairs and the smell of freshly-ground coffee, which should provide an experience that will make you feel right at home.

The clinic is outfitted with the latest technology and equipment and each room can truly be called state-of-the-art. With four laboratories, two transfer rooms and an operating theatre, the clinic is well-equipped for your treatment and has been designed for maximum efficiency. Once your treatment is over and you need to recover, you will do so in one of their ensuite rooms.

There are many reasons as to why you should choose Repromeda:

• The staff at Repromeda have countless years of experience and they are considered to be experts in their field.
• When you go to the clinic for your treatment your dream of having children is shared by the staff, and they feel compassion and empathy for the journey you are going through. As such they are motivated to do the very best that they can do so that you can walk away happy and expecting.
• State-of-the-art. With any form of medical treatment the newest and best technology and treatment techniques can offer you the highest chances of success, thanks to how medicine advances.

As such each treatment plan is designed with this in mind, to ensure that you receive the treatment you really need.

Repromeda Location

Repromeda is located in Brno, the second largest city in the Czech Republic. The clinic is only 15 minutes away from the city centre when travelling by car, taxi or public transport. Thanks to its proximity to the city centre it will be easy to get to and from, as well as allowing you to experience the city while you are there. If you fly to the country you will have your pick of which airport to fly to as Brno has an airport of its own, as well as being 140 km from Bratislava airport, 190 km from Vienna airport, and 220 km from the airport in Prague. If you happen to be undergoing egg donation treatment and pick one of the more advanced packages you will have airport pick-up included in the cost, so there will be one less thing for you to think about. The clinic also has deals with local hotels so that they can help you save money on your accommodation while you are undergoing treatment, and these hotels are all between five and fifteen minutes away from the clinic.

Being in the Czech Republic, Brno has a style of architecture that is both beautiful to look at but functional at the same time. Whilst it is the second largest city in the country it is something of an undiscovered gem as tourists tend to prefer to visit cities such as Prague and Vienna. Thanks to this you will have a much easier time walking around and visiting places in the city, because there won’t be tourists everywhere. This makes it a perfect place to go for your treatment, as there are some beautiful places to visit, such as the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul, the Spilberk Castle, caves, museums and more. If you choose to combine your treatment with a sightseeing tour of the city you are sure to have a wonderful time.
