Aug 1, 2022 by Rekha Nair 0 Comments

Kurnool, July 2022: Oasis Fertility as part of its expansion plans sets foot in Kurnool; launches its 5th centre in the state of Andhra Pradesh.

· Oasis Fertility is co-founded by Dr. Durga G Rao and Mr Kiran Gadela

· Oasis Fertility is ranked as the No. 1 Fertility Chain in South India and No. 3 in the country

· The fertility centre is 5th in Andhra Pradesh

· Aims to reach 50 centres across India in the next 3 years

· Offers personalized fertility treatments enabling couples in achieving their parenthood dreams

Oasis Fertility launched a full-fledged world-class IVF centre in Kurnool. This is 5th in the state following Vijayawada, Vizag, Guntur and Ongole. The centre is all set with a world-class IVF lab offering personalized highly advanced fertility treatments to both men and women and it was inaugurated by Dr. Vahida, Professor HOD Viswabharathi Medical College, Kurnool; and Dr. B. T. Jayalakshmi, B. A. N. I. S Yoga Master; Dr. Kiran Kumar, Spine Surgeon; Dr. Durga G Rao, Co-Founder & Medical Director, Oasis Fertility, Dr. Krishna Chaitanya, Scientific Head & Clinical Embryologist, Oasis Fertility, Dr. Vijaya Lakshmi D, Clinical Head & Fertility Specialist, Kurnool and Mr. Sudhaker Jadhav, Chief Operating Officer, Oasis Fertility graced the occasion.

Speaking on the occasion of the launch, Dr. Durga G Rao, Co-founder & Medical Director, Oasis Fertility stated, “We are extremely happy to enter Kurnool. The lack of standardized and scientific treatment methodologies propelled us to launch our centre here. Also, the TFR (Total Fertility Rate) in Andhra Pradesh has reduced to 1.6 which is a worrying trend. Erratic lifestyles, consumption of junk foods, obesity, and delayed parenthood have become major reasons for the steep increase in infertility in India. We wish to emphasize the fact that several advanced treatment options are available and therefore breaking the stigma around infertility is the need of the hour.”

Dr. Krishna Chaitanya, Scientific Head and Clinical Embryologist, Oasis Fertility stated, “Delighted to launch our centre here at Kurnool. There have been terrific advancements in the field of infertility, and technologies like IVM, ICSI, Micro-TESE, PGT, and ERA help in improving the success rates. Fertility treatments are highly personalized and all our treatments are backed by technology to improve patient outcomes. Our IVF labs are on par with international standards and all our treatments are evidence-based. We employ EWS technology to make the entire IVF process flawless enabling couples to embrace their genetic child without any sample mismatch. Oasis began its journey in 2009 at Hyderabad, today we have branches across the country. Infertility is a journey which may need 6 months or even a year for patients to visit the hospital frequently, especially those undergoing IVF treatment need to visit the hospital regularly. To seek treatment patients in Kurnool, have to go to Hyderabad or Bangalore. Leaving their avocation and staying in the city for treatment is inconvenient and expensive too, often the expense could be more than treatment cost. Therefore, to bring the treatment within the reach of couples we are setting up Oasis centers at all the District Headquarters, we are already in Vijayawada, Guntur, Vizag, Tirupati, now the best treatment is at the doorstep of the patient. The incidence of infertility is on the rise off late due to changes in lifestyle, rise in pollution, couple spending lesser time together and late marriages are all leading to childlessness. Best treatment is the need of the hour. Oasis is ensuring all the latest facilities under one roof at Kurnool center, to provide the best treatment and the patients need not go anywhere. Infertility is not women related problem, even men are equally responsible for childlessness. Therefore, we started a special male fertility clinic to provide comprehensive fertility care. To create a test tube baby, we need an advanced lab and have to maintain quality. Air quality to instruments used, persons trained are all of international standard. The facilities which are generally limited to big cities are being made available patients here in Kurnool.

Mr. Sudhaker Jadhav, Chief Operating Officer, Oasis Fertility, stated, “Expanding our network in Andhra Pradesh has always been our key focus due to the very low TFR and the lack of institutionalized setup. Through our cutting-edge technologies backed by eminent fertility specialists and the best embryologists, we have been offering baseline to advanced treatment solutions to men and women all under one roof. He also added, “There is very little awareness about the several advanced treatment possibilities that can enable in having a biological child despite severe infertility issues and our core agenda all these years has been to take this information to a larger section of the people across India through our online, offline camps, webinars, conclaves, etc.”

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Vijayalakshmi Dasari, Clinical Head & Fertility Specialist, Oasis Fertility, Kurnool stated, “Very happy to start our journey at Kurnool. The world-class treatment available in Bangalore or Hyderabad is now available in Kurnool through South India’s number 1 fertility center, Oasis fertility. People have apprehensions of exchange of sperms and eggs, to avoid such confusion, we have a unique Electronic Witness System. We also have AndroLife clinic to address male infertility problems. Till date in the last 13 years, around 67000 couples became parents with the help of Oasis Fertility. We see many cases of PCOS, endometriosis, uterine fibroids these days majorly due to an unhealthy lifestyle. As we follow a holistic approach, we help couples to conceive through lifestyle modifications, medications and baseline treatments as well. Through the Fertility Preservation technique, we empower cancer patients to store their eggs, sperms or embryos before undergoing cancer treatment and achieve their parenthood dream in the future at their convenience.”

Dr. Vahida said, “Oasis Fertility coming to Kurnool is good news especially childless couples in and around Kurnool. Childlessness is a huge trauma for couples and to treat that, Oasis setting up a center with state-of-the-art equipment here in Kurnool is of enormous benefit to the people.”

Dr. B. T. Jayalakshmi said, “like the doctors said the reasons for infertility is lifestyle changes, stress, besides pollution, Yoga coupled with infertility treatment can help couples to become parents.”
