"We chose to work with Sarah due to her emotional connection with IVF, her own experience going through this & her ability as coach & trainer. The most important result she achieved for our business is that we learnt & understood how critical it is to handle patients emotionally, not only by counsellors but by the whole staff of each centre. She achieved for our staff’s development is that they have started to become aware of importance of emotional connect with patients and & handle them sensitively & sensibly. The key benefits we have seen from working with Sarah is the growth in our staff’s ability to understand patients emotionally and handle them accordingly.” - NOVA IVI Fertility, Vinesh, Chief Operating Officer
