Al principio nos ofrecieron unos descuentos con mutua que al final no pudimos aplicar porque era obligatorio que la mujer la tuviera. Cada visita nos atendió un ginecólogo /a del equipo diferente, a veces discrepaban las opiniones entre el equipo, las llamadas para la beta: rápidas, secas y frías “La beta ha salido negativa”. Los precios son elevados respecto a otras clínicas de la zona.
