Letterkenny outreach clinic

Where is the outreach clinic?

In collaboration with Dr McKernan, patients residing in Donegal and surrounding areas can now access initial consultations, all tracking scans and tests required for treatment in Belfast in Letterkenny General Hospital located at the Hospital Roundabout, Letterkenny, Donegal.

Usually only three appointments will then be required at TFP Belfast Fertility during treatment, thereby reducing the amount of travelling and disruption for our patients.
