Grace Private

My husband and I saw Dr Tania Widmer for infertility assistance. She was incredible the entire time, really efficient, always had an action plan and was very caring. She was there for everything, from surgery to scans and ultimately IVF. We did our first round of IVF with Dr Tania Widmer and the first round was successful. We are now 27 weeks pregnant with a healthy little girl. Thank you Dr Tania and the lovely team at Grace Private

I couldn’t recommend Grace Private enough!I just had my first bub with Dr. Pilgrim who supported and advocated for me every step of the way. The midwives were also very caring & knowledgeable. If we have a second bub we will definitely go with Grace Private again! Thank you Yasmin for your sensational care.

I highly recommend Dr Pilgrim and the Grace Private team for pregnancy and birth!I moved over from South Africa when I was 34 weeks pregnant and very nervous to find a new obstetrician in a news country and so late in my pregnancy. But my experience with Grace Private has been spectacular!The medical suites are stunning and all the staff are friendly and knowledgeable! Every time I called or emailed with a question pre and post birth, I was helped so quickly with so much kindness.Dr Pilgrim took me on even though I was so far along in my pregnancy, and she has been amazing. She is so kind and caring and always listened to me. My birthing experience was honestly so different to my first. Dr Pilgrim clearly explained all my options and supported my decision even when I changed my mind at one point.Thank you so much Dr Pilgrim and the Grace Private team for such an amazing experience!

Dr Tina Fleming is hands down my life saver. But not only that, she is one of the most beautiful women I know. Her compassion, understanding and advocacy for her patients is outstanding and her bedside manner is like no other, take it from me, a nurse!. She really focuses on incredible multidisciplinary care for my endo to make sure I am getting the best outcome. I have had previous surgeries elsewhere and my most recent surgery with Tina was significantly different (in the best way possible). Being under her care in the hospital post op really optimised the best recovery I’ve ever had and set me up to live life again. I’m so grateful to have her in my life treating me and now I am even going to go on my fertility preservation journey with her. Thank you for everything, always Tina x

It’s been 9 months since the birth of our son & I still don’t have the words to express how truly grateful we are to Dr Tina Fleming. (Sorry for the long review)My husband & I struggled to fall pregnant for 5 years. We had seen multiple doctors, had all the tests & were told everything was “perfect”. I decided to seek another opinion from a fertility specialist and chose to see Dr Tina. From our very first appointment Dr Tina embodied warmth, compassion & empathy. She made us feel incredibly supported & genuinely wanted to help us.She completely respected my decision of not wanting to jump straight on the IVF train and she made sure she left no stone unturned as she guided us through fertility treatments. After we had exhausted all other options Dr Tina suspected I had endometriosis and strongly recommended an exploratory laparoscopy before starting IVF. I didn’t have any symptoms of endo & she was the only doctor to ever suggest the possibility!! I was expecting her to maybe find a tiny bit….she found & removed early stage 4 endometriosis, my only symptom was infertility.We started IVF a few weeks later & I got my first ever positive pregnancy test after our very first round! We ended up having a couple of early miscarriages. The support & care I received from Dr Tina & all the incredible Grace team was something I will always be eternally grateful for. Our third embryo transfer gave us our son.Dr Tina puts her heart & soul into the care of every one of her patients and she rides the wave of IVF highs & lows with us. She feels our pain when things don’t go as planned and celebrates even the tiniest of wins. Her knowledge is incredible & she was my voice of reason throughout our entire fertility and pregnancy whirlwind. We had quite a journey with Dr Tina & having her deliver our son after everything she did to help us get him here was such an incredible moment that I will never forget.Having an endometriosis diagnosis is a little overwhelming, and being asymptomatic we don’t know when I will need another laparoscopy or what the future holds, but I know whatever happens, I have an incredible surgeon by my side and I will be in the safest hands!Dr Tina, you changed our lives in the best way possible and we are so grateful to you. We will see you for the making of baby #2 very soon! X

Can't speak highly enough of Dr. Yasmin Pilgrim and the midwives at Grace. My wife and I were quite anxious going into the pregnancy. Meeting Yasmin helped us feel secure and allowed us to enjoy the process. She is very approachable and kind.Yasmin was personally there to make sure baby came out safe and sound. The midwives were attentive and caring. My wife and baby both did very well after the delivery. She has a beautiful bed side manner and is great at explaining things clearly. Thank you so much Yamin, you are an amazing clinician and an even better person.

Could not recommend Adriana Olog and the team at Grave Private enough! They were so amazing to deal with every step of the way, great midwife support in Sarah. Hospital service also amazing! Highly recommend Grace Private to anyone. You won’t be disappointed.

Do not use Dr Tina Fleming at Grace Private if you actually want to get pregnant with IVF. I chose Grace Private for IVF as we had an excellent experience with Dr Adriana Olog for our daughter's birth. Adriana was competent, kind, respectful and compassionate and mistakenly I expected the same from her colleague. I was devastatingly disappointed. Dr Fleming failed to use even the most basic current medications to enhance our IVF outcomes even when used for our daughters successful conception (with another IVF dr), she showed zero respect for our embryos - especially a precious tested embryo - pushing cycle after cycle without even so much as a phone call after a miscarriage (even when I specifically asked for a quick follow up appointment twice) to see how I was and talk about what we can do differently next time. I had to research everything for my treatment myself asking for medications other doctors are increasingly using routinely. Going through IVF is an extremely stressful and vulnerable time, you need to feel supported and trusting of your doctor yet I felt alone, mislead and swindled. Also the nursing and admin team at Grace were too busy. I and the Monash nurses would often wait days for a reply - unacceptable as IVF is time critical. The head office manager was rude and lacked compassion. Truly we get more follow up and compassion at our dogs vet than from the team at Grace Private. I am not the type to leave a review like this but honestly i want to save you the heartache, lost time, and money we have experienced. I have since asked around (the IVF community is easy to connect with on social media) and I found a number of women who have been to Grace for help getting pregnant and not one of them ended up with a baby in their arms, some moved to another fertility specialist and finally got their rainbow baby. Sending only love and baby dust to you xx

I have been seeing Debra Miller for pelvic floor support post birth. It has been such a positive experience, she has been so compassionate and knowledgeable during our sessions. I feel much more equipped and empowered to strengthen my body. Thank you so much for your support!
