What to watch out for at Institut Marquès?

  • Inconsistent Doctor Interactions
    While many praise the staff, some reviews indicate dissatisfaction with specific doctors’ attentiveness and communication skills. Patients reported feelings of neglect or insufficient explanation regarding their treatment processes, particularly during crucial moments like egg retrieval. This inconsistency has led to disappointment and a sense of being unvalued as a patient.
  • Lack of Transparency in Costs
    Several individuals expressed concerns over hidden costs associated with their treatments. Patients have reported being charged additional fees unexpectedly, often without prior explanation. This has left some feeling misled and frustrated, as budgeting for fertility treatments can already be challenging.
  • Emotional Turmoil Due to Treatment Failures
    Despite numerous successful stories, some patients have encountered emotional distress related to failed treatments. The mixed outcomes, combined with insufficient follow-up care or testing from the clinic, can lead to feelings of abandonment and a lack of closure.
  • Issues with Fertility Donor Matching
    Critics have mentioned discrepancies regarding the matching process for donors, citing concerns that the assigned donors may not align with the patient's preferences. Some reviews highlight dissatisfaction with the lack of detailed information about donor characteristics, which contributes to a feeling of uncertainty.
  • Mixed Experiences with Initial Consultations
    While the walk-in and initial experiences are generally positive, some patients reported lackluster interactions during their first consultations. Instances of doctors being dismissive of previously obtained medical records or not adequately addressing patient concerns have been highlighted, leading to a shaky start for new patients.

We were very well supported and monitored during our embryo transfer (the first after 10 years of PMA). The team is very competent and very human. Very attentive to our needs and questions. Very reassuring and above all very caring. On the day of the embryo transfer, we were made very welcome. The team is warm and caring.

The PMA journey is always difficult for a couple. It is long, complex, painful, so it is very important that the medical and administrative team supports the couple physically, psychologically and emotionally so that the process takes place in optimal conditions.
Having known 3 teams in 10 years, kindness is the key to successful support: Tenon in Paris (very good team), Mother-child in Lyon (disaster… notably an unhealthy gynecologist who should no longer practice today ) and Natecia in Lyon (adorable) who redirected us to the Marquès institute where we experienced the best possible welcome, a team that was both adorable and competent.

Personally, I am even sure that the kindness, availability and attentiveness of the team played a big role in our success (even if “benevolence” is not a “scientifically proven” argument) 😉

Today we are pregnant 👍 after 10 years of PMA.
And we finally return to a “classic” pregnancy journey in France.

Thank you to Dr. Walker’s entire team and to all the people from the Marquès Institute who accompanied us!!!

Thank you for your kindness and your listening ❤️

We went to this clinic on the recommendation of a friend who had undergone treatment there, still without success. We had been looking for a pregnancy for 1 year, pending getting on the Social Security list and we decided to try the private one, and this clinic was the one that convinced us. The treatment was not successful, we received a call from the doctor in which he told us and told us that he would put our case in the hands of the committee; We have not received news again.
Two months later we started the treatment through the public, and in the first ultrasound they performed on me they already confirmed that I have dilated tubes and that I have to have surgery to remove them, since if the treatment is carried out in this way, apart from not being successful, they may cause an ectopic pregnancy. In none of the numerous ultrasounds that I had during the check-ups with the doctor at the Marqués Institute did he detect this fact, nor with the hysterosalpingography test provided, asking the doctor directly about the result since we did not understand if this could cause any problems in the treatment. We were informed that there was no problem and we arrived at the transfer, which could cause an ectopic pregnancy and obviously without any possibility of success. For us it has literally been giving the clinic more than €10,000.

My partner and I turned to Rainbow Fertility in 2023 to realize our dream of expanding our family. We made an initial introductory appointment and Dr. Parastie’s team was immediately professional, helpful and empathetic. We didn’t feel like we were just “numbers”, which is what happened to us in other clinics.
They followed and supported us throughout the process, always promptly responding to doubts and checks to be carried out before the IVF treatment we chose. All in our language (in Italian), allowing us to calmly understand all the steps to take and making us feel almost at home.
Even once we arrived at the clinic we found a familiar, welcoming environment and we found doctors and nurses, in our opinion, competent and prepared.
We sincerely thank the Institut Marques for helping us realize our dream, after 9 months our baby arrived, healthy and beautiful!

I did an IVF process in the Barcelona office with the use of my oocytes and sperm donation, I carried out the genetic compatibility test with the donor and pre-implantation diagnosis of the blastocysts that were formed. I recently made the transfer, I still have to wait a few days for the pregnancy test: I’m writing this ‘review’ now, before knowing the outcome, because every body is different: what comes next (whether it’s a success or unfortunately no) it will depend on many factors, not just the characteristics of the clinic. Regarding everything I have done together with the clinic to get to now, on the ‘eve’ of the test, I am very happy with my choice of Marques: I chose it because it is a medical department with very solid experience in this field and objectively cutting-edge techniques and tools, even compared to other institutes. I based my choice on these ‘objective’ factors here. Then of course all the staff I had contact with were very kind, humane, I felt welcomed and calm.

The Marquès Institute is a unique place.
A team that listens and is present in every situation. The staff were very pleasant and warm, leaving us feeling serene from the clinic. Despite a very painful first failure,
We made a 2nd attempt, and we are waiting for the result.
A big thank you to Dr. Walker’s entire team for my follow-up and to Dr. Walker for his kindness and professionalism.
