The fertility team at Genesis IVF & Women ’ s Specialist Centre invests enormous time and effort to ensure that patients achieve high clinical pregnancy rates .
They do this by treating each patient individually with tailor-made IVF programmes to suit each couple ’ s needs . These use all the resources available at Genesis IVF , with its team of experienced doctors , embryologists , and nurses supported by the most advanced technology , such as preimplantation genetic testing with ion torrent NGS and embryo freezing with Cryotec cryopreservation , which gives a 100 percent post-thaw embryo survival rate after freezing . Its use of embryo culture with time-lapse embryoscope incubation is another important and proven technology employed by Genesis IVF .
Part of Alpha IVF Group , Genesis IVF points to its reasonable prices and exceptionally high clinical pregnancy rates as its most enduring selling points .
The centre has a simple but ambitious mission — to “ become the most advanced IVF fertility centre in the region ” with the goal of surpassing even its parent .
With more than 30 years of experience in fertility treatment between them , the clinic ’ s two fertility specialists have recorded rates of over 70 percent , which makes it world-class . The centre also features a team of skilled and experienced embryologists and nurses .
Being strategically located in

Penang ( ranked as the first state in Malaysia for medical tourism ), the clinic has attracted a lot of medical tourists from Indonesia and Singapore , despite just three years in operation .
