Ms Claire Mooney

Consultant Embryologist

Claire is a consultant embryologist with over 24 years’ experience in assisted conception and is our medical director at fertility solutions. She has worked and trained in some of the most successful IVF units in the world. Claire specialises in Male fertility and believes that in an assisted conception industry that focuses heavily on the female partner it is now essential to turn our attention to the male partner. Claire set up fertility solutions with Mr Ramsay to provide Men with a facility first to test but ultimately then improve their fertility to increase the chances of a natural conception and also if necessary to improve the outcomes of Assisted conception (IVF, IUI and ICSI).

Claire's mission is to bring male fertility to the forefront of patient's minds to the benefit of the couple. Claire focusses on investigating the man first in the couple's fertility journey with the aim of assisting natural conception.

Mr Jonathan Ramsay

Consultant Urologist

Mr Ramsay has been a Consultant Urologist at Hammersmith, Charing Cross and Chelsea & Westminster Hospitals since 1988. He works closely with the fertility units, both at Hammersmith and Chelsea, and is also a visiting urologist to fertility clinics in Bucks, Sussex, and Central London. Research interests and publications include methods and outcomes of sperm retrieval, vasectomy reversal and the genetic causes of infertility. Mr Ramsay is a UK leading male fertility specialist, and widely regarded as the leading expert in this field. Men with presumed fertility problems require individual care, diagnosis and advice, otherwise they feel abandoned by the doctors who can do so much for their partners, and sometimes they feel guilty that there seems to be so little they can do to help the situation. Mr Ramsay’s practice in men’s fertility aims to answer three important questions. Firstly, is there a ‘male factor’ problem? Secondly, can we diagnose a cause? Thirdly, can we offer straight-forward (evidence-based) treatment?
