Genetics

The WIF is the only fertility treatment institute in Vienna that has its own genetics department. The genetics department is run by the renowned geneticists Prof. Markus Hengstschläger.

Genetic analyses have a pivotal role in reproductive medicine for three reasons:

  • They improve the chance of having a successful pregnancy
  • They can be used to clarify the risk of having a miscarriage
  • They can identify the risk of inheriting genetic diseases to your offspring

Genetic screenings are particularly important in older couples seeking fertility treatment, couples suffering from abortus habitualis, and in patients that have already experienced several failed attempts at IVF.


I was very satisfied with the treatment. The team is always striving to do their best. The waits are short. We felt very well taken care of.

Relaxing Atmosphere: An Institute with a relaxing atmosphere, very friendly, compassionate care. Highly recommend.

I would highly recommend this Institute to everyone: you don’t feel like a patient, all the employees are engaged and are excited for you. It’s a great feeling to receive so much support.

My doctor provided excellent guidance from our first meeting until successful pregnancy. I was able to call her at all hours of the day, and if I couldn’t reach her per phone, then I could always send her an E-mail.
