An outstanding specialist who always suported us and stayed in touch even on weekends. You can approach Lois with any question, and she will always calm you down and do her best to help. Lois managed to arrange a trigger replacement( I stored it not as per guydance) within just one hour, which was truly incredible. Thank you so much!
Ms Whelan., is amazing what can I say! Always there for me explaining things I'm not sure of. She is never in a rush and always makes the time to answer any questions I have.
I couldn't have felt in safer hands with Lois, knowing she was there to guide and reassure me through my treatment, every step of the way. Her level of compassion and understanding is truly a gift, and that’s not even taking into account her clinical knowledge! Lois was amazing at explaining everything, and I knew she’d always talk things through no matter how daft I thought a question was. I would pick Lois to be my nurse 1000 times over. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being such a phenomenal human!
I read an article recently that said people going through IVF often don’t lean on their usual support circles, simply because others don’t fully understand. As sad as that is, it feels far less so when you have someone like Lois. She is always there — even if it’s just to listen. She’s incredibly kind, thoughtful of both of us and how we’re feeling, and keeps us informed every step of the way. She holds your hand through each moment, no matter how big or small, and makes an incredibly difficult journey feel that bit more manageable. Thank you Lois!
My IVF journey is something I’ll never forget, and so much of that is because of the incredible care and support I received from Lois. From the very first conversation, she made me feel completely at ease - like I wasn’t just another patient, but someone she genuinely cared about and wanted the very best for. What truly sets Lois apart is her unwavering support. IVF can be an emotional rollercoaster, but she was there through every high and low, always ready to listen, reassure, and guide me. There was never a moment where I felt alone in the process. If I needed clarity, reassurance, or just someone to talk things through with, she was always just a phone call away - and she never made me feel like any question was too small. Her communication was exceptional. She took the time to explain everything so clearly and thoughtfully, making sure I understood each step and felt comfortable with what was happening. She has such a calm, kind way of speaking that instantly puts you at ease, even during the more overwhelming moments. Because of Lois, what could have been a stressful and daunting experience instead felt smooth, supported, and manageable. She created such a sense of trust and calm throughout the entire journey, and I will always be so grateful for the care she gave me. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through something so important.
