About Me

Hello, I am Jenny Dobbs. I have been working in the fertility industry, both in the UK and internationally, for more than 30 years.

As a qualified nurse, clinical embryologist, and fertility coach, I have gained valuable experience in all areas of infertility.

Having spent many years working as CEO and HFEA person responsible of several UK clinics I have gained a broad knowledge of all aspects of fertility management and regulation. Additionally, I have over 10 years experience working with leading Spanish clinics, to facilitate patients who need to travel overseas for fertility treatment, providing advice and support to help navigate the challenges of travelling abroad for treatment.

Now, I want to channel my knowledge and experience into providing independent, expert advice to ensure that patients and families, who are faced with fertility challenges, fully understand all options available to them.

Armed with knowledge, empathy and understanding, I can provide you with the advice and support you need on your family building journey.
I look foward to meeting you.

How can I help?

If you are struggling to have a baby or have been told that you need fertility treatment in order to conceive you may have a lot of questions such as:

When is the right time to start getting fertility tests?
How will I know if I need treatment?
Which treatment option is best for me?
How much is treatment likely to cost?
What steps can I take before and during treatment to increase my chances of success?

Furthermore, you may also discover that there are many voices online offering endless help and support, some credible but others possibly preying on people’s vulnerability. It is essential that help and guidance comes from those who have experience, credentials and who are considered experts in the field. Receiving support from expert sources means that you can rest assured knowing that you are receiving the best service and care available.

Regardless of where you are in your treatment journey I can provide the following services:



Explanation

I can provide you with a clear explanation of the treatment process to ensure that you fully understand what is involved and that you are completely aware of what your treatment options are.



Guidance

Ensuring that you fully understand everything about your specific needs and/or proposed treatment plan – allowing you to focus on your physical and mental wellbeing at a time when you want to be in your best possible state of health.



Independence

I am not linked to any clinic therefore should you need the help of a fertility clinic I can provide Independent advice and direct you towards the best clinic to suit your specific needs. I can also help you understand clinic processes and success rates.



Understanding

I can help you understand what treatment can be funded by NHS and /or how your treatment can be paid for if private treatment is the necessary or preferred option.



Advice

I can offer advice on what measures can be taken before and during treatment to give you the best chance of achieving a pregnancy. I can also advise on next steps to take should treatment be unsuccessful.



Support

I can provide support and advice throughout your treatment cycle from the initial consultation, during treatment and to pregnancy test.

I can also help to address any doubts or questions along the way.

All of my advice will be completely independent and will be based on a combination of scientific & regulatory evidence and on 30 years of experience working in clinics within the UK and across Europe.

There are many reasons why you might be having problems trying to conceive a baby, some obvious and some not so obvious, depending on your individual circumstances. The information and advice available can, at times, be overwhelming and confusing.

Broadly speaking, approximately 30% of fertility issues are caused by female factors, approximately 30% are caused by male factors, 20% combined male and female factors and 20% is unexplained. For both women and men, however, lifestyle factors such as smoking, excessive alcohol intake and obesity have been associated with higher chances of fertility issues.

Whatever your circumstances, you will want to find out all you can about your fertility and what is help is available should you need it. There are many treatment options available, some simple and some designed to help with more complex fertility cases.

Why not take the first step and contact me for a free of charge introductory chat. We can discuss your circumstances and you can decide if I might be able to help you on your fertility journey. The first consultation is completely free and you are not under any obligation to book additional sessions. I look forward to talking to you.

Testimonials

I have referred fertility patients to Jenny now for a number of years. My patients and myself have been consistently impressed with the caring and professional manner with which she approaches all of her clients. Jenny acts entirely independently, using her extensive experience of the fertility sector to guide those seeking a pregnancy to maximise their chances. Jenny has always gone the extra mile to look after all those seeking her help and is approachable, reliable and extremely knowledgeable.

Dr M McComiskey - Consultant Gynaecologist Belfast

My partner Kim and I are delighted and very excited to announce that we are pregnant following fertility treatment at IVF Life clinic in Alicante. We have to thank Jenny Dobbs CEO of IVF-Life UK and IVF-Life Clinic in Alicante for making this happen. We were really keen to have a baby but without Jenny’s help we would never have heard of IVF Spain nor considered going to Spain for treatment. We are so glad we took her advice and guidance the whole way through our IVF journey.

Thank you so much to Jenny and the whole IVF-Life team involved in making our dream come true.

Roy Turkington - April 2022

We had 2 failed IVF treatments and time was not on our side. We knew that egg donation was our best option but frankly we were daunted by the thought of donation and the fact that our best chance involved going abroad for treatment. We were advised by our gynaecologist Dr Hunter to contact Jenny Dobbs for further information. It was the best decision we ever made. Jenny explained the options of treatment at home and abroad and gave us the time and confidence to make the next move. She is very knowledgeable and reassuring Following our discussions with Jenny we contacted the clinic in Spain and have never really looked back.
We have been to the clinic in Spain and met the team. Everyone was so friendly helpful and professional. We are now looking forward to our treatment cycle with excitement rather than dread. There is no doubt that IVF is stressful and expensive but knowing that you have all the necessary information to make the best decisions really helps. It also helps to know that we can still contact Jenny for independent advice if we have any questions or doubts.
If you are contemplating treatment or feel that you need more information to make your decisions then we recommend a consultation with Jenny. It was a gamechanging decision for us.

My partner and I had been through fertility treatment before which was unsuccessful. We were introduced to Jenny through another medical practitioner. I had a number of meetings with Jenny detailing all of our available options. This was invaluable advice that isn’t readily available. Having the option to reach out to Jenny who was independent from private fertility clinics and to guide us through our options without pressurising us in to a particular clinic was exactly what we needed. For anyone unsure of their options and what services there are available within Northern Ireland and further afield we would highly recommend Jenny.

Oonagh - 2024

Jenny helped direct and guide us on our fertility journey. A scan had shown up suspected endometriosis and so I got in touch with her to find out what to do next. Jenny explained what my options were and told me what I could expect when I contacted the private clinic. I felt it was important to have impartial advice, particularly when paying a private clinic where I was cautious due to the fact that private treatment is profit making. We were also very reassured by the fact that Jenny knows a lot of professionals in the field. As well as this, Jenny helped shed some light on some methods that I had read about online that are often associated with improving fertility. Following her advice, we were well informed when our journey began and were energised to start treatment right away. When we began our treatment we both had some tests and a problem was identified with my husband too. Jenny explained in more detail the science behind the problem, suggesting some lifestyle choices we could make which might help with the success of treatment and again, expelled some myths that we were worried might have caused the problem.

We were reassured to continue with the treatment. We were delighted to welcome our little daughter into the world 14 months after our initial conversation with Jenny. Our story is proof that even if a problem is found with both partners it’s still possible to have a successful outcome.
