RESEARCH AND INFORMATION

A/Prof Wan Teh – Gynaecologist & Fertility Specialist

A/Prof Teh is actively involved in research. Under the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) scholarship, she completed a PhD study investigating the determinants of uterine receptivity in women with implantation failure. She is also the co-author of a number of significant research that have changed the clinical practice for IVF worldwide. What this means for women looking to conceive, A/Prof Teh aims to increase the rates of success for pregnancy.
