Ep. 8 Irish Medical Lives with Dr Chris Luke and guest Dr. John Waterstone
Description
Dr John Waterstone, Director of the Waterstone Clinics in Cork, Dublin, Limerick, and Waterford and former President of the Irish Fertility Society, is one of the true pioneers in fertility medicine in Ireland, and currently the most experienced specialist in reproductive medicine in the country.
In this episode of Irish Medical Lives, Dr Waterstone recalls his childhood in Kilkenny and Westmeath, his undergraduate days in Trinity College in Dublin (where he studied genetic science and medicine), and his specialist training in fertility care in London under the auspices of great British pathfinders, such as Professor Robert Winston.
John also tackles many of the questions commonly posed about fertility care in Ireland, and touches on some of the most recent advances and controversies, from delayed public funding of ‘IVF’ to the variability of actual ‘success rates’ between different services on both sides of the Atlantic.
