👍👍 Having not done a huge amount of research, I stumbled upon the CFC via Google - and boy am I glad I did. My initial consultation with Dr Oosthuizen was helpful and informative. They were flexible around my changing timeline and accommodated my cycle when my flight got delayed and we had just enough... People often mention Heylen, Cape, team, recommend, Fertility,

    Having not done a huge amount of research, I stumbled upon the CFC via Google - and boy am I glad I did. My initial consultation with Dr Oosthuizen was helpful and informative. They were flexible around my changing timeline and accommodated my cycle when my flight got delayed and we had just enough time. Dr Mathabese did the final consult and extraction and was gentle and supportive. I appreciate the way the team managed my expectations, explained everything clearly, and made me feel secure and reassured. Highly recommend this team - and the process itself! As a working woman in my mid thirties - living through a pandemic - it’s given me a sense of optionality. Tip: use an ice block to numb your skin when injecting each day! Makes all the difference.

    This place is amazing including all staff. I never thought I’d have a baby of my own until I met Dr. Heylen. I’d recommend him to anyone... He’s loaded with lots of experience!

    Dr. Matebese and the whole Cape Fertility team have been the epitome of kindness, professionalism and patience. Everyone has been so caring and I have felt very supported through what can be a tough, lonely journey. I am so glad to have Dr. Matebese as my doctor and I trust her implicitly to facilitate my fertility processes. I feel very blessed to be able to turn to Cape Fertility for help.

    My advise : stay away from this clinic. We wanted to benefit from an egg donation then an IVF. 1)Doctor Heylen did not check the age of the donor at the time of the egg retrieval and affirmed we had a 50% chance of live birht sucess. 7 eggs were fertilised. We found out afterward that the donor was 44 years old and that we had a 5% chance. We came from London, Dc Heylen knew it. He confessed that the Lab did not check the egg quality nor he checked the age of the donor before giving us this estimate of 50% chance. 2) while there is a 95% average survival rate of the eggs during the thawing process, during the second thaw, all eggs were lost. 3) I had to take a treatment to prepare for the IVF (which never occurred, given the above) no medical advice were given post treatment. When we outlined errors mentioned in 1) and 2) Doctor Heylen sent an e mail to mention that he would cease all communication. While certain staff from the clinic are very kind and professional, I can only recommend, based on my very bad, sad and costly experience, to stay as far as possible from Dc Heylen.

    Cape Fertility clinic is a place of joy ☺️ I’m impressed of high professionalism and kindness of each member of a team. We came there as foreigners, when we visited Cape Town as tourists. We didn’t expect that we will be able to get consultation and checkup in a short notice. But likely we met Heidi (coordinator and nurse) who listened us and organized everything we needed. Heidi, thank you a lot for help, support, time and communication 🫶🏻 During consultation we met dr. Pottow. She is such an incredible person. She gave us hope and plan for the future. She explained a lot of things which was not clear, answered all of hundred questions we had, gave us recommendations what we should do. Thank you, dr Joanne, Heidi and all Cape Fertility team for being so cool ☺️

    Dr Heylen is a wonderful doctor and seems to have been lucky enough to find his true calling in life! I have never had such a great experience with any other doctor. Needless to say we had a successful treatment at Cape Fertility over the course of a few months. Highly recommended!!! Best in South Africa! Thanks Cape Fertility team!!

    Not recommend for women going through perimenause or menopausal symptoms as I've now suffered for years because I was sent away "you've still got eggs, come back in a few years"... In my late 40's. So totally misdiagnosed. Watch Dr Susan and you'll be much more knowledgeable than than the gynecologist is saw.

😠 We had an absolutely appalling experience with Dr Hanekom, but I see we’re not the only ones. There is another review here about him that was 100% our experience as well. I’m sure that Aevitas as a whole is not too bad, but I would not recommend Dr Hanekom at all. Like the other review mentioned, ou...
