Best Experience More Than I Imagined

Where do I begin. In January 2023 my husband and I took a leap offaith and went to the beautiful island of Barbados to Barbados Fertility Clinic with the hopes of conceiving.

We chose BFC because we were delighted to know that this clinic right here in the Caribbean is among the worlds best and boy did the experience exceed this expectation. From the very first interaction to the last interaction the process was smooth and easy. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and equally as welcoming and kind. I felt as if I were their only clients. In the short time on the island the staff became our family, guiding and nurturing us step by step. The service alone was exceptional, but to know that the process was also successful, now I look at my beautiful daughter with gratitude that I had the opportunity to go to BFC. Many thanks to Dionne, to my Drs Athanasakis and Dziura, the front desk staff
Rhonda, the Wellness Centre - also highly recommend getting an acupuncture. Truly no words will ever be enough to thank them so all I can do is encourage anyone that is struggling to conceive to try BFC I promise you, you will not regret it!!!
Going to BFC has hands down become one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life!

Truly life changing experience

Truly life changing experience. I froze my eggs here at 35 years old and the ONLY regret was not doing it earlier. The clinic is amazing. The staff is kind, warm, and even fun and Barbados now has a special place in my life and I actually can't wait to go back...!

My husband and I did a round of IVF at BFC. The prices even with travel and accommodations were cheaper than here in Canada. The prices and high success rates were what initially attracted us, but there is a level of psychological safety in having a relaxing tropical vacation if nothing else.
The clinic was SO incredibly responsive, people actually answered the phone and would get back immediately, treatment was never delayed, two things that were big problems in our Calgary clinic… BFC never made us feel like a number. They were so kind, understanding and immensely supportive through all the ups and downs that is IVF/infertility.
Another huge factor is the depth and breadth of treatments available at BFC, many which aren't available in Canada (ie: PRP, 2 embryo implantation, medication regimens not offered in Canada).

We are expecting in January, and are so grateful for all that BFC did for us.

Egg Freezing with Barbados Fertility Center

I went to Barbados Fertility Center in 2021 to freeze my eggs and I was extremely satisfied with my experience.

From the first consultations and distribution of medication in Trinidad (especially in the middle of the pandemic) to the final treatment and egg retrieval in Barbados, I felt safe and in excellent care throughout the entire process. The staff and doctors were extremely communicative and my treatment was explained clearly and in simple terms for me to understand. The beautiful scenery and environment in Barbados is an added plus!

As a single woman, I cant describe the relief in anxiety that knowing I have some preservation of my fertility and the relationship with BFC continues because they are storing my eggos safely should I ever need to use them. If that day does come I would 100% return to them.

With compassion, care, humour, and professional: they change lives.

What words could I use to sum up what BFC means to me. They gave us our dream baby and did so with compassion, care, professionalism, thoughtfulness, humour, and precision. It was a true pleasure to deal with everyone at BFC from the front desk staff to the nurses, social media staff, wellness center coordinators, doctors, owners… everyone. They changed the trajectory of our lives in an indescribable way - all while we enjoyed a dreamy sunny vacation - and I can never say thank you enough.

Best decision we ever made

I can’t say enough positive things about BFC. After 5 IUIs, a PCOS and endometriosis diagnosis (including a laparoscopy) and no positive pregnancy test results over our 7 years of trying, our BFC babe will be turning 3 in September. We absolutely loved our experience - the staff was incredible, especially our nurse coordinator. Traveling from the US to Barbados for IVF is the best decision we ever made.

Miracles do happen ✨️

We recently celebrated our Twins 3rd birthday, so genuinely grateful for Barbados Fertility Center in helping us live our dream!
We are living in a real life Miracle, after experiencing 10yrs of infertility & multiple failed attempts at our local Clinic ( both IVF & IUI)
Years of heartache finally came to rest when we received our first ever positive pregnancy test on the 14th of October 2019.
Thank BFC for all you've done for us from making us feel like family to helping us to have our family!
Love & good luck from Trinidad

This center has given us HOPE

This center has given us HOPE! they’re professional, humbling, kind, friendly, supportive and make you feel like you’re family. In America, they just want you money. This center cares about families and they go over and beyond to help. When we had a very low percentage, they provided information of how it could work and wanted try for a miracle. Long story short, we have a 10 month old son. If we have to go back, we will. It’s worth every penny.

Worth the travel!

We travelled to Barbados Fertility Clinic after multiple failed IVF cycles in Canada. After my phone consultation with Dr Skinner, I finally felt heard and satisfied that a plan to move forward was in place. Our experience was excellent. From our nurse Aliya, physician Dr Skinner and even the front desk staff, we were always greeted with smiling face and positive outlook. We enjoyed it so much - we went back for a 3rd BFC baby! Really enjoyed how you could reach out to your nurse at any point with questions or concerns. The open lines of communication helped make us feel comfortable! The beautiful beach and beaming sunshine don’t hurt either!

You are valued and loved like family

We had tried to conceive for 17 years. We tried IUI, medicated cycles, the just don’t worry about it method, (ha that’s funny)
Then we were told $55k USD, and I broke… until I found BFC and knew we had to at minimum call them and open communication.
We instantly found ourselves welcomed and cared for.
This is such a hard thing to go through and to have someone to give you a virtual hug, only to get a huge one when there, was a big deal.
The cost is absolutely doable, and the atmosphere is not that, that I found in the US… when I would to into the office I met others going the the same thing, I’ve made life long friends with other patients and the staff.
I periodically have people who work, worked and live on the island asking when we’re coming back and they want to meet their boy (our son who came from this treatment)
I know if IVF didn’t work with BFC it’s not because they didn’t do ALL they could, and I would be devastated, however that would not have changed the experience my husband and I received while in and after treatment.
I can not wait to go back, we’re praying for the fall/winter 2023
Many blessings to all who venture to BFC for treatment and many blessings to the faculty and staff of BFC
Sending a virtual hug

What a pleasure it was having Sean and Angell with us in Barbados. They made a huge impression on us! We sat down with them while they were here and even went to Texas to film them on their farm! See the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ID2qdDpm1U

Inconsistent customer service

Inconsistent customer service. I had a series of bad experiences from the begining to the end of the process. While I understand they are running a business, all they care about is the making money mindset not so much about customer service/care. Whatever service you get you get, and that's that,if you're OK with dealing with that stress together with the stress of the process itself, well by all means head to BFC.

Hey Christine. This is very confusing and saddening to read. Our ethos is to try and make a very stressful situation a little easier. All the rest of the reviews would attest to this! We haven't raised our prices for Caricom patients in over 15 years and even though all of our expenses have raised over 20% in the current cost of living crisis, we have pledged to not raise prices across the board as we feel the cost burden shouldn't be placed on people going through a difficult period of their lives. We certainly don't have a 'making money mindset' in our daily dealings with our patients.

I searched through all of patient or enquiry records for your details so I could discuss your experience but could find no record of your name or any variation of it. Please reach out to marketing@barbadosivf.com if you want to discuss more.

Fabulous care from the whole team

Fabulous care from a team that is obviously invested in the wellbeing of their clients. This review is well overdue as we were there in January 2017, but we had a successful treatment and would highly recommend.

God used BFC to accomplish our dream of having our own child. The bill was affordable and cheaper than USA where we are. The doctors and all the staff were professional, seasoned, welcoming, loving, humble, friendly and, just name any good virtue you can think of. Also the environment is a good vacation place ideal for IVF treatment.
Today, we are happy parents of a 6 month old healthy and happy baby girl.
Because of our satisfaction and love for BFC, we have introduced not less than six couples to the center and we are willing to introduce more people.
God bless BFC

My husband and I are looking to have…

My husband and I are looking to have another baby and we have heard nothing but great reviews from the Barbados Fertility Center. Unfortunately, were we are from (California), the costs of getting an egg donor and doing the IVF treatment seem to pile up. We are looking forward to having the treatment done in Barbados and I have also heard from a friend of ours that they also work with a European egg bank (Ovobank) that almost halves the price for the set of donor oocytes as compared to the prices here in the US. Also, a nice vacation in the Caribbean seems like the perfect place to have this done rather than a clinic back at home. At my age in need all the help I can get and the nice surroundings and being able to relax while having the treatment seems like the perfect thing!

Great Overseas IVF Clinic

We chose BFC for it's reputation,location and price. Our insurance doesn't pay for IVF so having this done in the U.S. wouldn't have been as cost effective. Going through IVF can be such a stressful process that it only made sense to also make a vacation out of this and having less stress we think helped with getting pregnant. Everyone was so professional and determined to make sure we wouldn't leave Barbados empty handed (ie: Pregnant). Dr. Skinner , Anna Hosford and Dr. Corona are all very thorough.
Thanks to everyone at BFC we now have an amazing healthy child.

My husband and I had tried for about 6 …

My husband and I had tried for about 6 years to have a family and after we had tried everything we eventually were faced with IVF. It was very scary and there was so much that I didn't know. But after talking with Dr Skinner I felt at ease and determined to grow our family. Everyone at BFC was very loving and explained everything. Once we started our journey with BFC, everything went so smoothly! I had only attended the clinic a few times and the rest of my days were spent on the beach or out doing excursions. We couldn't of asked for a better place to go.

You Can't Find a Better Place to Get IVF treatment!

My husband and I traveled from Colorado to get IVF treatment from BFC. The quality of treatment was a thousand times better than what you find in the U.S., and the cost was so much more affordable. We chose to travel to BFC for IVF treatment based on the great reviews we found online, the high success rates, the low cost, and the fact that they are JCI Accredited. The quality of care of BFC is amazing! From the ladies at the front desk to the nurses in the treatment rooms, every one there makes you feel welcome and you can tell that they all truly care about your situation. The clinic itself is in a beautiful building directly across from the gorgeous, blue ocean. Everything is super clean and up-to-date. You can't find a prettier or more relaxing place to get IVF treatment.
