Dandenong locals ready to embark on their journey to parenthood will soon have high quality IVF for low cost, right on their doorstep. First Step Fertility is pleased to be expanding to Dandenong to provide easy access to bulk-billed, world-class IVF treatment.
We have designed a unique service model which is based on bulk-billing, the most affordable way to gain access to IVF treatments. Our model focuses on minimal gap payments and fully stimulated cycles. It is a unique way which allows us to remove the financial barriers other full-service clinics in Dandenong can pose for couples pursuing their dream of having a baby.
With a budget-friendly approach that sets us apart, couples located in Dandenong and all surrounding areas can now enjoy.
At First Step Fertility, the quality and service remains at the highest levels thus giving you the best chance of falling pregnant. You will be seen by a powerhouse of IVF specialists who are recognised experts in their field, and jointly looked after by experienced fertility nurse coordinators during your treatment program at our Dandenong clinic.
By delivering quality services without the cost, we help our patients achieve significant savings while they begin their family. With no means testing, it is our priority to lower travel and financial stress to give you ease of access and peace of mind.
What can you expect?
Patients can expect to be seen be highly esteemed and experienced fertility specialists and nurses while accessing various IVF treatments at our Dandenong clinic. Both face-to-face and telehealth consultations will be available to deliver maximum flexibility throughout the process.
We offer a fully stimulated cycle with both bulk-billed fertility treatments, IVF and ICSI, which incurs no out-of-pocket expense. The only costs associated with treatments are the day surgery costs for the egg collection procedure ($1,150 – $1,350), non-PBS medication (approx. $300), frozen embryo transfers, and some pathology tests (blood tests are bulk-billed where possible). To make any out-of-pocket expenses more bearable, we offer interest-free payment plans through Humm.
To be eligible for the treatments at our clinic we require patients to carry a Medicare card to access bulk-billing.
Getting there
For your ease, our new clinic will sit in the heart of Dandenong at Dandenong Plaza on the corner of McCrae and Walker St, to be highly accessible. Not only is the clinic situated in a central location, but it is complemented with free secure parking for the first five hours to limit the stress that often comes in tandem with finding and then paying for a parking spot.
The clinic is also in a prime location for those who prefer to use public transport. Located within walking distance from both train and bus stations, patients can get to and from their appointments via the 802, 804, 828, 850, 901 buses or the Cranbourne and Pakenham trains.
