Not only are Assisted Nature looking out for your best interests when it comes to helping you achieve pregnancy, but they are also looking out for your psychological well-being. Having a baby through IVF treatment can be a very taxing experience, especially when it comes to needing to utilise donor eggs or sperm, and they understand this. So they have a whole host of services available to you, in order to help you psychologically and ensure you are mentally prepared for everything the treatment involves. They offer counselling for both you one on one, and couple counselling if you wish to do it with your partner, as well as for single mothers and egg donors. These psychological services are available to you at any point during your treatment. With all of this available it shows that the clinic is looking out for your best interests and has your health in mind.
One of the main reasons for offering psychological services is due to it being hard on women when they need to rely on an egg donor in order to fall pregnant.

“I and my wife have used the services of at least 4 IVF clinics and received consultations from others, both in the United Kingdom and Greece. I dare say IVF care in UK is in the medieval ages compared to that in Greece (this comparison could expand to other areas in private health care really); it is not about value-for-money, it mainly is about the expertise, commitment, personalisation and effort provided. Assisting Nature is by far ahead of any clinics we used in the UK, and one of the top (if not the ultimate best) in Greece; I and my wife are in our 40s and we consider ourselves extremely lucky and thankful for having been referred to this clinic, because after years of unsuccessful IVF attempts with other clinics, we now go through our 2nd trimester of our pregnancy. And that was not just luck. Dr Papanikolaou, apart from having top academic qualifications, he is a skilled gynaecological surgeon; he has the competency and confidence to perform difficult and risky operations (one of the hysteroscopies in our case) with success. Unlike past previous clinics, where they wouldn’t even be able to see a wide-base polyp, and those who did wouldn’t have the skill or dare taking the risk of removing it. If it wasn’t for Dr Papanikolaou, we’d still be trying… The entire Assisting Nature clinic team of doctors / embryologists, nurses, midwives and admin staff have simply been brilliant. The personnel is highly trained (each in their field), dedicated and supportive. The team is supported by cutting-edge hardware and the latest medical / embryology lab equipment. I’d highly recommend this clinic, especially to women from the United Kingdom (or anywhere in the world!) Dr Papanikolaou and team thank you so much, we appreciate your efforts for helping us achieve success!!!”

Thank you for the effort we make and which has been crowned with success so far as despite my difficult case, we have managed to collect two beautiful and chromosomally healthy blastocysts. I wish of course the second half of our joint effort to be crowned with success. A big thank you to the embryologist of the center Mrs. Timotheos for her also excellent scientific training. I have not felt so far to be a number, because the approach is always personalized. I also thank the midwives and the secretariat staff for their professionalism. The race continues and we will win it thanks to your help! Thank you!”

At Assisting Nature they have strict guidelines on what requirements each donor needs to meet in order to donate.
- 20-32. Donors must be between 20 and 32, to ensure the health and fertility of the eggs.
- Educated. All donors must possess a high-school diploma, although the clinic prefers those with college degrees.
- No history of drug abuse. This is to ensure that no external and illegal substances will have interfered with the eggs, although they will be tested thoroughly to ensure this is the case.
- No STIs. They must never have contracted an STI (Sexually Transmitted Infection), even if it has been treated successfully. This is something that can also impact egg quality.
- Good health. All donors must be in good health and must also be non-smokers. The healthier the donor the better the quality of the eggs.
With these requirements, we hope your fears of egg donation have been assuaged, and that you will now be more than happy to receive donor eggs.
So if you’re looking for a high-quality clinic that truly cares about its patients and is situated in a beautiful city where you can have a wonderful holiday in, then look no further than Assisting Nature in Thessaloniki, Greece.
