Anna Balchan

Anna is based in Poland after spending several years at a fertility clinic in the UK. She has been involved in fertility since 2014 and in 2018 became a Senior Fertility Midwife, working as part of the egg donation programme and being coordinator for both donor and recipients’ cycles.
She then became the lead midwife for all surrogacy cases in addition to working closely with a London-based sperm bank.
She has a great deal of experience in supporting and caring for patients during their entire fertility journey.
Her passion for fertility care has only been strengthened over the last 8 years and she is excited to now be doing this within NOW-fertility.Â

Alessandra qualified as a registered midwife in Italy in 2011 and has spent several years based in UK working for a private fertility clinic in London.
She has extensive experience and knowledge in fertility, and has gained specialist skills through further training, such as scanning and performing endometrial biopsies.
Alessandra’s passion and experience in this specialist area of healthcare allows her to offer an exceptionally high standard of patient centred care.
She feels privileged to be able to guide and support  patients through the complex and emotional experience of fertility treatment, to make the journey feel as stress-free as possible.
