'Significant concerns' over London fertility clinic following 'tragic loss of embryos
A fertility clinic in London has had its licence suspended due to "significant concerns" after a "tragic loss of embryos". The Human Fertilisation & Embryology Authority (HFEA) said it has paused the Homerton Fertility Centre's licence as there would be a "potential risk to patients, gametes and embryos" if it did not act. Staff at the centre, based in the London borough of Hackney, are "currently investigating issues relating to the storage of embryos," the local NHS Foundation Trust said. Its statement continued: "There have been three separate incidents within the unit which have highlighted errors in a small number of freezing processes."
