Descriptiontext

Clínica Tambre (legal entity TAMBRE FERTILITY CLINICS S.L.U.) is a Madrid-headquartered, privately held fertility clinic founded in 1975, operating a second clinic in Alicante since 2025 and serving patients through a Villa de Prado partnership in Valladolid. The clinic offers a comprehensive assisted reproduction portfolio including IVF, ICSI, egg and sperm donation, artificial insemination, the ROPA method for female couples, embryo adoption, single-motherhood pathways, and fertility preservation (egg and sperm freezing), supported by advanced embryology technologies such as the GERI time-lapse incubator, ZyMot-ICSI microfluidic sperm selection, endometrial PRP, RI Witness RFID sample tracking, and the Fenomatch AI-powered donor matching system. Specialized in-house units cover reproductive immunology, urology, and psychology, alongside dedicated andrology and embryology laboratories, genetic diagnostics (PGD, genetic compatibility testing, KIR/HLA-C genotyping, ES-TIME endometrial receptivity, Comet and FISH sperm tests), and ovarian rejuvenation.

The clinic operates a direct-to-consumer healthcare model with no public pricing, delivering individualized quotes after consultation. It runs a formalized international patient acquisition function with dedicated phone lines and multilingual (Spanish, English, German, French, Dutch, Italian) websites targeting patients from the UK, Italy, France, the Netherlands, and Germany, positioning Tambre within the European cross-border fertility tourism market. The organization is founder/management-led under CEO Inge Kormelink and Medical Director Laura García de Miguel, with no external private equity or venture capital disclosed; affiliated non-profit Fundación Tambre conducts scientific research and publications. The competitive proposition combines 50 years of operating history, multidisciplinary in-house clinical talent, a broad treatment menu including complex cases (implantation failure, recurrent miscarriage, low ovarian reserve, immunological infertility), and a multi-channel digital marketing presence (Tambre TV YouTube channel, blog, patient testimonials, social media).
