We would like to share a heartfelt message with you, filled with gratitude for everything you have done for us.
We would like to express a big THANK YOU to the entire team at Gennima, who stood by us throughout this incredibly challenging – yet truly magical – journey into motherhood and fatherhood.
From the very first moment we met Dr. Mantoudis, and later on Dr. Natsis, during our initial appointment, we felt a sense of trust and reassurance.
You guided us with professionalism, but also with genuine care, explaining every step of this journey to us.
The hysteroscopy and management of the underlying issues marked the first crucial step.
IVF and embryo transfer with Dr. Mantoudis then followed, with the invaluable support of the clinic’s embryology team — a journey filled with both anxiety and hope.
We will never forget the 12-day wait… and the moment we held in our hands the positive test we had been waiting for so many years, following our first and only IVF attempt.
A special thank you to our dear Ioanna Gatsiou, who stood by us throughout this entire journey, supported us, reassured us, and made us feel that we were never alone.
We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Dr. Vlachopoulos, who looked after us throughout the pregnancy with consistency and care, giving us confidence and peace of mind at every stage.
During the pregnancy, we faced a critical moment in which an emergency cerclage had to be performed, and there was a serious risk to our baby.
In those hours of uncertainty and fear, Dr. Mantoudis stood by us in a way we will never forget, giving us strength, calm, and hope. I will never forget his words just before the anaesthesia: “Don’t be afraid, I will save your baby” – words that remained deeply engraved in my memory and that, in the most beautiful way, became reality.
And of course, a huge thank you to the wonderful Evi Synodinou, who together with Dr. Mantoudis, helped me bring our baby boy into the world on 9 April 2026, through an incredible natural birth that we will remember forever.
We also want to thank all the staff at Gennima, who were always there for us over the phone, promptly assisting us with appointments, medication prescriptions, and anything we needed. Their support was invaluable and truly meaningful.
In such a sensitive journey, scientific expertise is invaluable — but it is compassion, understanding, and genuine care that truly make the difference. And you offered all of these generously. Thanks to you, a lifelong dream has become reality.
And every time we look at our child, we will remember that behind this miracle stand people who believed in us, supported us, and stood by our side with all their heart.
You will forever be a part of the most beautiful story of our lives.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything.
With respect and boundless gratitude,
Maria & Alexandros
Baby Boy
