What you will learn

  • Say where the facts on a listing come from and who reports them.
  • Read the services, cycle count, medical director and accreditation fields without over-reading them.
  • Explain why a live-birth rate on a listing is a whole-clinic figure and not your own chance.
  • Name the next question to ask a clinic when a field is empty.

Questions

Is this course medical advice?

No. It does not tell you which treatment or which clinic to choose. It teaches you how to read a listing and what to ask. Talk to a doctor or other qualified clinician about your own care.

Does the course tell me which clinic is best?

No. A listing is a record, not a recommendation. The course shows what a listing says and what it does not say.

Does the certificate show I can advise other people?

No. It is a certificate of completion from this site and records that you passed the exam. It is not a licence, an accreditation or a professional qualification of any kind.
