We are progressing on all fronts. Cycles of IVF and ICSI have resumed in 80% of clinics nationally, but with careful precautions and Covid testing for many patients.

..and does make microsurgery more difficult, but certainly not impossible. Once again, ‘distancing’ in the operating theatres, limits throughput, but we are getting used to a slower turnover of cases.

My office at home has never been better equipped, and we can now arrange all necessary investigations without delays.

I’ll share another update next week. In the meantime, stay well.
