In 1986, the first private fertility clinic in Norway opened. Livio Oslo - then known as the IVF clinic - has since been a pioneer in assisted fertilization. Over almost 40 years, the clinic has contributed to more than 3,500 children being born.
Livio Oslo has now become part of CMedical, and patients have access to a unique combination of modern technology, surgical expertise and extensive experience in fertility treatment.
"The advantages of us now joining forces are that the patients get access to a wider range of treatment options, more specialists in the same place, as well as good expertise and technology from both clinics", says Kjersti Brenden, gynecologist and fertility specialist from Livio Oslo.
A unique combination
CMedical is the first clinic in the Nordics to combine fertility treatment and surgery under the same roof. With state-of-the-art equipment, a high-tech fertility lab and a broad interdisciplinary team, the treatment is comprehensive and safe - from puberty and pregnancy to maternity and the period after birth.
"With state-of-the-art technology and fertility-preserving robotic surgery, we can offer more holistic care and treatment of a challenge that can be complex. This provides security along the way - something that sets us apart in a field where precision and cross-functional collaboration are crucial," says Birgitte Mitlid-Mork, Gynecologist and fertility specialist from CMedical.
Experience that builds security
Livio Oslo has been an important player in Norwegian fertility history, and brings with it almost four decades of experience.
"The most important experience we have gained after almost 40 years of fertility treatment is that development over time has provided security and experience. We have always focused on individualized patient follow-up," says Kjersti.
More are seeking treatment today
Involuntary childlessness affects between 8–12% of couples in Norway. At the same time, you can see that more people are seeking help today than in the past - both due to increased transparency and changes in the legislation.
"Attitudes towards assisted reproduction have become much less taboo than before. When you ask, almost everyone knows someone who has been through treatment," says Birgitte.
A broad interdisciplinary offer
A distinctive feature of CMedical is the breadth of the offer. The clinic has specialists in diseases that affect many infertiles, such as PMOS and endometriosis, and a separate expert team in advanced endometriosis surgery.
"We follow the patient closely before, during and after the fertility process. In addition to fertility treatment, we offer follow-up from obstetricians, obstetricians, pelvic floor osteopaths and gynecologists with expertise in birth defects. We also have a broad interdisciplinary team consisting of a fertility coach, nutritionist, sexologist and psychologist - all under the same roof. This is completely unique," emphasizes Birgitte.
The best of both worlds
With Livio Oslo and CMedical together, patients get a combination of experience, security and modern technology - all gathered in one place. This gives the patients a comprehensive and future-oriented offer, where both body and mind are taken care of.
