Serum was a positive experience from start to finish. We saw a few different doctors who helped come up with a plan for and carried out our treatment. We visited for initial assessment at Easter and then again for our treatment last August, which we are hugely thankful was successful first time and we now have a gorgeous baby girl. A huge thank you to Serum and all the staff there.

Our experience as clients, as well as our collaboration with the center and its people, was truly exceptional and unforgettable. From the very first moment, it was clear that this is a team with deep knowledge of their field, who stand by your side with consistency, a smile, and a genuine willingness to help. They took on our case with professionalism, but also with a personal, human approach, guiding us step by step until the end which, fortunately, had the happiest outcome. Every member of the team was kind, fully qualified, and always available to answer any question we had. The teams communicate flawlessly with one another, with speed and coordination, ensuring that all necessary information is shared immediately, without us having to repeat ourselves at every stage. The center itself offers a modern, comfortable, and exceptionally clean environment that makes you feel safe and confident from the very beginning.
In short, it is a team of professionals who, above all, remain true Human Beings. We sincerely thank them for everything.
With gratitude,
Nikos & Maria

IVF Serum is such an amazing clinic, I can only speak highly with positive words about the experience of our journey with them. It was definitely worth all of the travelling over to Athens from the UK. We now have a beautiful baby boy just arrived, along with additional embryos at the clinic hopefully for a sibling him.
The treatment, personalised care and communication from Dr Meridis was seamless. He is an amazing doctor who is leading an amazing team of experts at the clinic.

By far the most beautiful journey. Highly recommended.

I previously shared a review on Serum when I had my first child, and now I feel compelled to write again, hoping my experience can offer guidance to others currently navigating fertility treatments.
Serum is truly exceptional. In a world where fertility treatment can sometimes feel impersonal and rushed, they stand out as compassionate professionals, like angels in a sea of sharks.
What initially drew me to Serum was their meticulous, thoughtful approach. Unlike many clinics that adopt a one-size-fits-all method, Serum emphasizes thorough testing and fully personalized protocols before starting any IVF treatment. This level of care and attention to detail made all the difference.
Every member of the team, from the front desk to the medical staff, is experienced, kind, and deeply professional. I’ve been under the care of Dr. Gryparis, and I can’t speak highly enough of him. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and clear in his communication. With his support, I always felt I was in the best possible hands.
My journey has not been easy. I have low ovarian reserve, and my body has started showing signs of giving up. Yet, Dr. Gryparis has been with me every step of the way, guiding me with expertise, empathy, and unwavering support. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a fertility specialist.
If you are searching for an IVF clinic, look no further. Even if you are based abroad, making the trip to Serum is absolutely worth it. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel at home.
Lastly, a special shout-out to Gkalia Tsangkalova, Lead Embryologist, Vicky Panagopoulou, Lead Anesthetist, Dora, Christina, Chara and Marisa from the Midwife Team, and a heartfelt thank you to Penny, the founder of Serum. Penny has been my shoulder to cry on when things have been difficult. Her dedication to her patients is extraordinary and she consistently goes above and beyond to help make dreams come true, and for that, I’m deeply grateful.

After failed IVFs in my homecountry my clinic did not believe I could get pregnant with my own eggs. Then i came to Serum and got my miracle, my baby boy, after only one attempt using my own eggs. I will be forever thankful.

I can’t thank serum enough for everything they have done for me and husband. From our very first visit we have been treated with the upmost care from all the staff and especially our specialist Dr Makis - he has been absolutely incredible, and has helped us achieve our dream of becoming parents and is just excellent at what he does. He is so kind and always responds with every question I have (which has been a lot from me :)) and has given us the best care!! I would also like to mention our amazing embryologist Gkalia who was absolutely incredible to us on transfer day and ensured our embryos were the best they could be. I would highly recommend serum to anyone who is wanting to start their family - the clinic, the staff, the care everything has been perfect for us. Thank you so much again x

After four long years of trying IVF, filled with heartbreaks and moments of lost hope, I finally found the light at the end of the tunnel — thanks to the incredible team at this clinic.
From the moment I walked through their doors, I was met with professionalism, compassion, and genuine care. The consultants and midwives went above and beyond to make me feel supported. Every question I had — no matter how small — was answered patiently and clearly. Emails were always responded to quickly, which made a huge difference during such an emotional journey.
I will never forget the day I was snowed in for nearly 24 hours. Despite the chaos, my amazing consultant checked in with me every few hours and ensured I was still seen and cared for. That kind of dedication is rare and something I will always be grateful for.
On my final round of treatment, the love and support I received from my consultant and midwives truly lifted me. Their encouragement gave me the strength to keep going.
And now, I hold my beautiful daughter in my arms — a dream that once felt so far away. This wouldn’t have been possible without the care, expertise, and heart of this clinic. Thank you for making my miracle happen.

I cannot put into words how amazing my experience was with the Serum IVF team. From the day I walked in until the day I got my positive test I was treated with respect , care and an unbelievable bed side manner.
Hands down the best clinic in the world. To the nurses , doctors, reception, embryologists I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Keep spreading joy and smiles in peoples lives!

I have been a patient at Serum for just over a year now but I have to say had I known how fantastic the staff & level of care would be I would have moved from my London clinic years ago. I was nervous to take the step as we live in UK & worried about things such as language barrier & time needed to spend abroad etc but there is nothing to worry about. All staff speak great English & are very understanding as to why we are all here. They show genuine care & explain your treatment & procedures so well. I found the staff from the reception team to nurses, Consultants & embryologists to be so professional & interested in me!! Even though we are still going through our IVF journey I trust this clinic & do not feel pushed to do extra tests or investigations that might not be necessary. Every diagnostic test I have had such as Hysteroscopy has been for a valid reason & my Consultant went through all my results very carefully ensuring all my many questions were answered. Penny the director is the heart of the clinic & has given my husband & I much of her time which we are very appreciative of. She talks to us like family, gives good researched advice & we feel that she is really listening to us. We have never felt so safe in such a rollercoaster of a journey. We are currently in the middle of another round & it had been tweaked so we are not repeating the same things over again…this shows how individual the level of care is that they provide plus they also listen to you as the patient so you feel involved in your plan. Thank you to all the staff in Serum & I pray we get the blessing we have been patiently waiting for.

After more than three years at an IVF clinic in our home country, a friend recommended Serum in Greece after their own positive experience. We decided to give it a try. Our first visit included a consultation and a minor procedure, and we returned later for a full round of IVF. The results were exactly what we’d hoped for — we had the highest-quality embryos we’ve ever had, and just three weeks later, we were pregnant.
We had our beautiful baby boy in November!

From the moment we stepped through the doors of The Serum, we knew we were in the right place. 💖 The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and filled with hope. Something that’s so needed on a journey like this. Every single member of staff treated us with such kindness, compassion, and genuine care. They didn’t just see us as patients. They saw us as people, with dreams, emotions, and a deep desire to grow our family.
The team at The Serum truly listened. They understood the heartache that comes with infertility, and never once did we feel rushed or unheard. Their professionalism is unmatched, but it’s their love and warmth that really make them special. ❤️
Coming from the UK, we had no issues at all with the language, everything was communicated clearly and with great sensitivity. The clinic itself is spotless and beautifully run, with state-of-the-art facilities that made us feel safe and confident in every step of our treatment.
A special mention has to go to the hysteroscopy. Something that’s often overlooked in the UK, but is an absolute must. It was done with care and precision, and provided crucial insight that shaped the rest of our journey.
And let’s talk about cost, compared to UK clinics, The Serum is incredibly cost-effective without ever compromising on quality. In fact, we found the experience to be far more personal, thorough, and emotionally supportive than anything we’d experienced back home.
This clinic changed our lives — not just through expert medical care, but through the love and support they wrapped around us every step of the way. We will be forever grateful. 🌸👶💫 Please don’t hesitate to reach out and take your first steps in starting your baby journey with The incredible loving clinic - The Serum

A Life-Changing Experience with IVF Serum – Our Miracle After Years of Heartache
After being told in the UK that we wouldn’t be able to have children, our hope was fading. We had undergone IVF treatment back home, but something never felt right — there were unanswered questions and unexplored possibilities. Then we found Serum IVF, and everything changed.
From the very beginning, the team at Serum treated us not just as patients, but as part of their family. They took the time to thoroughly investigate my health and discovered that I had endometriosis and cysts — something I had never been told during my treatments in the UK. These findings were essential and explained so much. Without their expertise and dedication to truly understanding my body, we would still be searching for answers.
Every step of the way, the staff at Serum were kind, patient, and available — no matter the time of day or evening — to answer our questions and reassure us. We were never rushed, never dismissed, and always made to feel like we mattered.
Thanks to Serum IVF, we have now welcomed into the world our little miracle. The miracle we were once told would never happen. We will be forever in debt to this incredible team who gave us not just medical care, but hope, support, and a future we never thought we’d have.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I cannot recommend Serum enough! After 10 years of infertility and miscarriages they made our dreams come true!!!!!
We did 8 years of fertility in the UK & were told in the end we’d never have our own baby. Serum found my problem straight away, after the right treatment we then conceived very quickly and then our 2nd child came naturally.
Miracles do happen and Serum made them happen for us!

After 2 failed IVF rounds in the UK, we decided to reach out to Serum with a desperate cry for help to start our long awaited family. From the initial telephone consultation we felt so listened to and supported. We travelled over for initial tests and on our first round of IVF with serum we welcomed our beautiful daughter who is now 1 year old, and we’re excited to expand our family with the help of Serum. The Serum team and Athens will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We approached serum after many failed attempts in the uk. We immediately felt at home and in good hands and didn't feel like just a number anymore!!After loads of hard work from serum and investigations we finally had our beautiful Baby Boy.
Serum will always have a special place in our hearts!!
They really are superheroes!!

I had my baby thanks to the incredible team at Serum Clinic, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. IVF is an emotionally and physically demanding journey, but somehow, I look back on the process with warmth and gratitude—and that’s entirely down to the people at Serum.
From the clinic owner to the consultants, nurses, and admin staff, every single person I dealt with was compassionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to helping people build families. At no point did I feel like a number or just another case—they treated me with dignity, empathy, and genuine care.
Thank you to the entire Serum team

If you are wishing to have a baby and you require IVF there is only one place in the entire world to consider and that is SERUM in Athens Greece.
From the moment you enter SERUM's front gate you feel safe and secure. Protected from the world outside as if you've set foot into an oasis of hope and wonder. A small fountain runs alongside the entrance path as you approach SERUM's front door, the sound of its falling water is soothing. You might even spy an occasional neighborhood cat quenching their thirst.
Step in through SERUM's front doors and the receptionists will warmly greet you, each one ready and eager to assist you in making your baby dreams come true. The reception area is professional, clean, modern, yet warm. The receptionists are fluent in several languages beyond their native tongue.
Soon you will be guided to a glass elevator that will lift you up to the next floor. Two friendly mid-wives will already be there waiting to greet you, opening the door for you to enter a truly modern and absolutely beautifully designed office area as if right out of a futuristic movie.
This may be where you will meet "Penny" - SERUM's founder (along with her sadly missed deceased husband). SERUM was a dream both shared when they were very young. Their mutual wish was to help anyone and everyone have a child, a family. Scattered on table tops throughout SERUM are countless books filled with images of babies and happy families, sent from all around the world from those who did just that - create a family of beautiful young children thanks to SERUM. People all around the world grateful for everything Penny has provided since SERUM's initial inception, when it may have been only a spark of a dream in her and her husband's eyes when they first started.
Encountering Penny is like meeting a powerful yet warm and loving motherly woman who only wants you to have your baby. She will smile at you, not just with her lips, but with her eyes. Eyes that twinkle with warmth and tenderness. Offering you a few deeply encouraging words, which are always appreciated when one is starting this journey. Penny might then personally introduce you to the extremely qualified physician who will get you started on your baby making path. A physician who will make you feel welcome, and immediately give you that perception of professional confidence and sense of trust you've been waiting for and hoping to feel since starting your journey possibly years earlier.
If you haven't sensed this already, this entire experience of going to SERUM is so very different from any other IVF you may have suffered through in the past, anywhere else. And perhaps because you are reading this, these other IVF clinics with their sleek websites, possibly their close proximity, and ultimately their false promises may have already sadly been the multiple cause of your own personal past disappointments. Going to other IVF clinics, only for your passionate dream to fail - not because it was your fault, but because those earlier doctors, their staff, the clinic itself was cold, uncaring and unresponsive. Possibly these earlier attempts you made elsewhere you felt neglected. Perhaps you were given too much medication which caused your body to suffer with OHSS. Or their profuse medicines possibly even sent you to the hospital feeling like you were about to have a heart attack! Making these prior experiences seem more like you'd been inside Frankenstein's lab. All of which you might have been willing to suffer through - if you had only been able to walk out of their clinic with a baby. But you didn't.
Not at SERUM. And it all begins with Penny. It's been my experience that the feel of a place, the success, the quality of a setting all begins, and kind of ends with the person 'at the top'. Their energy, their 'vibe', their ethics, their compassion trickles down through everything and everyone who works there. With Penny this is certainly true. One feels Penny's love and compassion and support emanating from everyone, almost as if they each share the same heart beat. Everyone at SERUM cares about you. Everyone at SERUM wants you to succeed. And they will do their best to help you. You will not feel this support in any other place, anywhere, this wondrous wonderful feeling and sense of being cared for, and even loved by everyone who works there. They just simply want 'you' to have your baby. A baby so your life might change how you have been hoping that it will, and become filled with that little bundle of love you've been so dreaming of.
I haven't even begun to discuss their "Suites' that Penny offers right next door. A beautiful apartment building where you can spend the night, or even a week, Overseen by two females who will make every effort to have your stay there be comfortable and cared for. So conveniently close.
