“Dr Bora was very clear and straightforward about our treatment options and chances of success. She listened carefully and took on board our thoughts and concerns, and was reassuring where appropriate. As somebody who was very anxious about IVF, I really appreciated that Dr Bora went out of her way to help me feel safe and supported. She is very knowledgeable and experienced and we couldn’t trust her professional judgement more”

“Dr Kate is always very kind, as a busy professional I always appreciate that she is on time for our appointments, in person and on the phone.”

“We are immensely grateful for Dr Bora’s support and expertise throughout our journey. She is very professional, detailed in her approach, honest in her medical recommendation, and helped tailor a treatment plan that worked for us. Always seemed to make time, friendly, compassionate and felt that she genuinely cared.
Thank you for helping us build our family Dr Bora”

“The most valuable part of having Dr Shabana Bora as our doctor was the communication. Our history was complex and I was very anxious. I was able to email Dr Bora whenever I had a question, and her response was so quick, putting my mind at ease. I always valued her human approach and ability to break down information in a more realistic way. It always felt like she was in our corner, willing this to work for us.”

“Kate has a wonderful bedside manner. She speaks to you as a person not a patient and doesn’t use medical jargon. She’s clear with her plans for you. I would highly recommend her as a doctor.”
