Clinica Gynera

What Clinica Gynera does

Clinica Gynera is a privately held fertility clinic founded in 2007 by Dr. Laura Dracea in Bucharest, Romania. Since 2019, it has operated as the only Romanian member of the FutureLife Group, a European reproductive medicine network spanning eight countries with more than 1,500 colleagues. The clinic runs a multidisciplinary medical team of approximately 70 specialists — including gynecologists, embryologists, urologists, endocrinologists, geneticists, and psychologists — and has served more than 30,000 patients cumulatively, performing 2,000+ IVF cycles per year and reporting 2,000+ children born via IVF since inception. Gynera serves both domestic Romanian patients and international medical-tourism patients, with customer segments spanning heterosexual couples, single women, same-sex female couples, and fertility preservation patients (both medical and social indications).

The clinic's technology platform centers on a state-of-the-art IVF laboratory equipped with EmbryoScope time-lapse embryo monitoring (with iDAScore AI-based embryo selection), ZyMot microfluidic sperm sorting, vitrification cryopreservation (>95% blastocyst survival rate), ICSI/PICSI micromanipulation, and full preimplantation genetic testing (PGT-A, PGT-M, PGT-SR) capabilities. Additional infrastructure includes AI Success Predictor predictive analytics for patient outcome forecasting, advanced andrology/microsurgery (TESE/micro-TESE), and complementary specialties (urology, endocrinology, nutrition, haematology, cardiology, psychology). The clinic holds ISO 9001 certification and is accredited by the Romanian Minister of Public Health for reproductive cell processing and storage, audited by the National Transplant Agency.

Gynera generates revenue primarily through per-cycle IVF package fees (RON 17,700 for Gynera Select up to RON 26,102 for Gynera Next Generation with AI and PGT-A), plus transaction fees for IUI, fertility preservation (egg/sperm/embryo freezing), genetic counseling and testing, and complementary specialty services. The clinic is an authorized provider of the Ministry of Family Program, which reimburses up to 15,000 RON for eligible Romanian patients. Distribution channels include direct clinic services in Bucharest, the Ministry of Family government program, an international patient services channel for medical tourism (minimum 2-week stay), and telemedicine consultations launched in 2021. Marketing relies on website content, patient testimonials, medical conference participation, and organic social media.
