The Centre for Reproductive & Genetic Health

What The Centre for Reproductive & Genetic Health does

The Centre for Reproductive and Genetic Health (CRGH) is a privately-held London-based fertility clinic founded in 1990 by Mr. Paul Serhal, operating two central London sites (Great Portland Street flagship and CRGH City) alongside a satellite clinic network. The clinic delivers a full suite of assisted reproduction services, including IVF, ICSI, IMSI, IUI, donor egg and sperm treatment, surrogacy, Shared Motherhood for female same-sex couples, and fertility preservation (egg and sperm freezing). Its technology stack is built around advanced embryology: Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A) using Next Generation Sequencing, vitrification egg freezing, Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection (IMSI), 3D Saline Infusion Sonography, the proprietary CarrierMatch screening for 500 genetic disorders, and an Endometrial Quartet panel (ERA, EMMA, ALICE, NKCT). The clinic is HFEA-licensed and CQC-regulated, and publicly reports HFEA-validated live birth rates up to twice the UK national average across IVF, frozen embryo transfer, and ICSI modalities, with results stratified by modality, donor-egg use, and age cohort.

Commercially, CRGH runs an event-driven, sales-led direct-to-patient model. Prospect patients are funnelled through free virtual and in-person open evenings, 60-minute paid video consultations, and a website with persona-segmented journey paths (heterosexual couples, same-sex couples, single patients, transgender patients). Pricing is bespoke per treatment plan; only specific packages are publicly itemised (e.g., Secure Egg Freezing from £3,500; egg donor compensation up to £985 per cycle). Financing risk is mitigated through Access Fertility's Multi-Cycle Packages and Refund Programmes and Kandoo Finance payment plans, while workplace-paid volume is routed via partnerships with Maven, Carrot, and Juniper. Donor logistics are handled through CT Shipper. Per-patient revenue is monetised across core treatment, add-on laboratory technologies (PGT-A, IMSI, EmbryoGlue), genetic screening and counselling, preservation, and diagnostic investigations. CRGH reports having helped more than 12,000 patients since 1990 and currently lists 101–250 employees. No parent company or external investor is disclosed; founder Paul Serhal remains in a leadership role, with Sandra Montagner Siney as CFO and Jonathon Lawrence as COO.
