Southbank Day Surgery Launches New State-of-the-art Fertility Services
Southbank Day Surgery has expanded its medical offerings to include cutting-edge fertility services, after nearly three years of planning and preparation. The addition of these services in collaboration with Oasis Fertility Centre comes at a time when demand for advanced fertility treatments is rising, reflecting a growing societal need and interest in reproductive health solutions.
Recent reports highlight the pivotal role fertility treatments are having in helping thousands of Australians achieve parenthood each year. According to UNSW Sydney medical researchers, up to one in three women achieve successful pregnancies in their first IVF cycle. In 2021 alone, over 20,000 babies were born as a result of IVF procedures in Australia and New Zealand. Demand for elective egg freezing is also on the rise as it allows women to preserve their fertility and potentially conceive later in life.
Southbank Day Surgery has proudly welcomed the distinguished team of Visiting Medical Officers from Oasis Fertility, including Founder and Medical Director Dr. Baruah alongside Dr. Rowlands, Dr. Aali, Dr. Coundjidapadam and Dr. Jatoth. Since April 2024, the hospital has been offering egg collections and sperm retrievals, with our dedicated nurses and staff receiving thorough training to support these advanced fertility services. Dr. Baruah emphasises the importance of personalised care and technological advancements in improving fertility outcomes. The integration of Oasis Fertility Centre with Southbank’s new fertility services signifies a shared vision of excellence and patient-centered care.
“We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Baruah and his team to our facility,” says Southbank’s General Manager, Rebecca Siebenhausen. “Their expertise and commitment to innovation will enhance the standard of care we provide, making advanced fertility treatments more accessible to our community.”
“We are honoured to embark on this journey with our patients,” concludes Rebecca. “Together with Oasis Fertility, we look forward to supporting individuals and couples on their path to parenthood, striving to ensure each step is met with compassion and expertise.”
“By partnering with Oasis Fertility we have enhanced accessibility and convenience for our patients. Having these fertility services under one roof promotes transparency and continuity of care, which are crucial factors in patient satisfaction and successful outcomes.“
