If you are anaemic or have trouble tolerating iron supplements, you could benefit from an iron infusion. An iron infusion delivers iron directly into the bloodstream through a vein. Iron is an essential mineral assisting the body to carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. There are risks and benefits to having an iron infusion, and your doctor can explain these to you at a consultation. Iron Infusions are performed by Dr Dmytro Nechyporenko. Cost is $150.

Dr Dmytro Nechyporenko offers the option of Medical Termination of Pregnancy for those patients who meet the eligibility criteria. Medical termination of Pregnancy is suitable for women whose pregnancy is less than 9 weeks (63 days) gestation. Medical Termination uses medication rather than surgery to terminate the pregnancy. If you are considering a Medical Termination, please book an initial consultation.
