What Clinica Romano does

Clinica Romano is a São Paulo-based private medical practice specializing in reproductive medicine, gynecology, and minimally invasive gynecological surgery, operating as part of the physician-led Grupo Romano network alongside Clínica FIV Anália Franco and the nutritional services of Dra. Erika Checon. Founded in 1998 by Dr. Rodrigo Romano, the clinic delivers assisted reproduction procedures including in vitro fertilization (FIV), intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), intrauterine insemination, preimplantation genetic diagnosis, alternative sperm collection, and cryopreservation of gametes and embryos under the Projeto ALFA laboratory alliance. Its clinical technology stack centers on minimally invasive surgical techniques (laparoscopy and hysteroscopy) and the ALFA cryopreservation system, which is described as having rigorous temperature control, air filtration, and liquid nitrogen maintenance meeting regulatory recommendations.

The clinic operates a direct-to-consumer, professional services model targeting individual patients in São Paulo, with two physical locations in the Tatuapé and Bela Vista neighborhoods and appointment scheduling facilitated primarily through WhatsApp. Revenue is generated per procedure from individual consultations, diagnostics, and assisted reproduction treatments, with pricing not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held under founder/physician control, with no external institutional investment, no public listing, and an estimated headcount of approximately 10 employees. Its customers are predominantly couples and individuals seeking pregnancy, women in reproductive age requiring gynecological care, cancer patients seeking fertility preservation, and women seeking integrated nutritional counseling. Marketing is conducted through the clinic's website, Instagram presence (@dr.rodrigoromano), and Google reviews verified via Trustindex.
