Extending Newcastle's fertility expertise to the Mid-North Coast
Patients on the Mid-North Coast have long had to travel for specialist fertility care. Dr Kate Burston is changing that, extending her Genea Newcastle practice to Port Macquarie so patients across the region can access consultations, testing and monitoring closer to home.
Dr Burston holds CREI qualification, subspecialty trained at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, and has a particular interest in male fertility, an area often under-investigated elsewhere. Her broader practice covers male and female infertility, fertility preservation, reproductive surgery, and recurrent pregnancy loss.
Why choose Genea
Genea's ongoing commitment to fertility research equips Dr Burston with world-leading tools and techniques, while keeping care personal and local. Genea's success rates are consistently above the national average, and when the time comes for procedures such as egg collection and embryo transfer, these take place at Genea Newcastle.
