Kinderwunschzentrum Niederrhein

For more than three decades, the Kinderwunschzentrum Niederrhein, Ki.Nd for short, has been treating couples and individuals facing infertility on the left bank of the Lower Rhine. The main location is on Madrider Straße in Mönchengladbach, and a branch is based in Krefeld. According to its own information, the number of fertility treatments is around 1,000 per year, and the center is described as the largest facility for gynecological endocrinology and reproductive medicine in the region. Its services include classic IVF and ICSI, donor sperm treatment (AID) for heterosexual couples, female couples, and single women, elective egg freezing for advance cryopreservation of eggs, and the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis. Anyone who first wants an overview can attend one of the regularly held free information evenings, which are offered on topics such as elective egg freezing and infertility and include a personal question-and-answer session with the medical team. Ki.Nd states that 60% to 70% of the couples treated can be helped to have a child of their own. According to its own statement, over 90% of patients rate the treatment as satisfactory. The website is available in German, English, and Dutch, which reflects the catchment area near the border. On Google, 153 people rate the center at an average of 4.6 out of 5 stars. Reviews mention by name, among others, Dr. Döhmen and Dr. Schalk as well as the performance of ICSI treatments. Appointment booking, cycle reporting, and prescription requests are possible through the website. Psychosocial support is listed as part of the offering.
