    En tant que client je ne recommande absolument pas cette agence. Ils m'ont imposé de changer 3 fois de programme avec des surcouts et des délais imposés inacceptables. Ils ont brisé ma confiance. Impossible de me faire rembourser ! 43 000 euros dépensés ! As a client I absolutely do not recommend this agency. They forced me to change programs 3 times with unacceptable additional costs and deadlines. They broke my trust. Impossible to get a refund! 43,000 euros spent!

Despite that, and knowing that I didn't have any disease at all, they continued to classify me as an HIV patient and charged me exorbitant amounts to proceed. For instance, a sperm washing at Dexeus costs around 500 euros...
