The Facility
Next Fertility Valencia is located on Avenida Burjassot in Valencia, in the neighborhood of Campanar. Right in front of the clinic there is a park, so it is surrounded by a green space.
Below are detailed all the facilities of the center, with the resources and technology available to perform assisted reproduction treatments.
Building and surroundings
Next Fertility Valencia is located very close to the Turia riverbed and the Valencia bus station. In addition, there is a hotel and a commercial area 5 minutes walking distance from the clinic.
The clinic occupies the entire ground floor of a corner building and has about 1,000 square meters of space. Its facade is light beige and the windows have blinds with the corporate colors. This ensures the privacy of their patients at all times.
In addition, the entire space of Next Fertility Valencia is adapted for people with reduced mobility since the doors are very wide and the toilets are also adapted accordingly.
Reception and waiting room
When patients enter the clinic, they find the reception area, where there is a white counter. Also, on the right hand side, there is a small office with pink chairs and a white table where patients are given an explanation of the estimates.
Next Fertility Valencia's reception is staffed by 3 people who work morning and afternoon shifts. All reception staff speak Spanish and English.
If you continue forward, there is a corridor where the waiting rooms are located. Specifically, there are 3 individual waiting rooms, guaranteeing patient privacy. Each of them has armchairs with the same shade as the wallpaper on the wall, which gives an aspect of care in the clinic. In addition, in the waiting rooms there is also a television to make the wait more pleasant, although it is not usually longer than 15-20 minutes.
During their stay at the clinic, the staff offers patients water, coffee and candy. WIFI and background music are available throughout the clinic to convey tranquility and serenity to patients.
Consulting rooms
At Next Fertility Valencia there are 5 consultign rooms and each one has an examination area. The equipment in these rooms consists of tables and chairs, a gynecological couch, a Voluson ultrasound scanner of the lastest generation and a monitor for patients to see the follicle count or the gestational sac, for example. In addition, Next Fertility Valencia's consultation rooms have their own bathroom with a WC, washbasin and bidet.
As mentioned above, 5 gynecologists work here. The languages spoken by the gynecologists are Spanish, English, Italian, German, Flemish and Dutch. In addition, all of them are on call on weekends and holidays, but only by telephone and not in person.
Operating room
The OR at Next Fertility Valencia occupies 30 square meters, making it a large and spacious operating room. There is direct communication between the operating room and the laboratory, which facilitates the transport of samples during the ovarian puncture.
Normally, there are 4 people present during surgery: the gynecologist, the anesthesiologist, the nurse and the assistant.
The operating room of Next Fertility Valencia is fully equipped with everything necessary to carry out the procedures for fertility treatments and outpatient surgery: surgical table, respirator, anesthesia equipment, hysteroscope, defibrillator and an ultrasound scanner with abdominal and vaginal probe of the latest generation of Mindray brand.
The hours for follicular puncture (ovum pickup) at Next Fertility Valencia are from 8:30am - 3:00pm, whilst embryo transfers are usually performed between 11:00am - 5:00pm. If scheduled for a weekend or on a public holiday, the hours are 8:30am - 12:00pm, regardless of the procedure.
On the other hand, Next Fertility Valencia's operating room is a sterile and clean space. All its corners and floor baseboards are rounded to avoid the accumulation of dirt. In addition, the material of the laboratory and operating room walls is made especially for sterile clean rooms.
Laboratories
Next Fertility Valencia has two laboratories, one for andrology and the other for embryology. Both laboratories occupy approximately 100 square meters where 5 embryologists work and are on call during weekends and holidays.
This center, like the rest of the Next Fertility group clinics, uses Witness as a security and traceability method for biological samples. This system is based on the use of radiofrequency identification chips that are attached to each sample. In this way, it is known at all times to which patient the samples belong and confusion between samples is avoided.
On the other hand, the administrative work is carried out outside the laboratory to avoid possible contamination of the samples.
The resources available in each of the different areas of the laboratory are detailed below.
Andrology laboratory
The andrology area is designed to perform procedures related to semen samples, such as seminograms, sperm capacitation, sperm selection, fragmentation analysis, sample processing for IVF-ICSI, freezing of semen samples and so on.
This laboratory of Next Fertility Valecia is equipped with:
- 1 Laminar flow hood.
- 1 Phase contrast microscopes
- incubator
- 1 centrifuges along with 2 more for the sperm bank.
Like the other Next Fertility locations, this clinic uses slow freezing as a method of cryopreservation of semen samples. In addition, the clinic has its own semen sample bank (CEIFER) and is adapted to work with infectious samples.
Embryology laboratory
The embryology laboratory of Next Fertility Valencia has three access areas, but in all cases access is restricted to authorized personnel only.
Here we find stainless steel furniture, rounded wall corners and floor baseboards, positive pressure and a filtering system with ventilation ducts using HEPA filters. All this ensures optimal conditions for embryo culture and that the laboratory is a completely sterile room.
The material available in the IVF laboratory of Next Fertility Valencia is detailed below:

Recovery room
In the surgical area are the recovery rooms. There are 4 individual recovery boxes at Next Fertility Valencia and all of them have their own bathroom. In addition, the recovery rooms have an articulated bed, a small table and a chair for the companion.
After the interventions, the staff at Next Fertility Valencia offers patients help and juice to assess tolerance before discharge.
Semen sample collection room
Next Fertility Valencia has a room for the collection of semen samples and is located right next to the andrology laboratory.
This room has a blue chair, a sink, a toilet, a paper dispenser on the wall, a television and a buzzer. In this way, when patients have collected the sample, they ring the bell and the laboratory staff comes to collect it.

This is where blood draws are performed and patients are taught how to take their medication.
The furniture in the nursing room includes an armchair with white armrests, a cabinet for storing equipment, a sink and a computer for administrative tasks.
