IVF doctor filmed misleading people about treatment safety

A fertility consultant in Bristol has been filmed by an undercover reporter at an information evening making misleading claims about IVF safety.

Dr Gurpreet Kalra of Create Fertility, which promotes a low drug treatment, claimed women die in the UK each year due to high doses of IVF drugs.

In a statement, Dr Kalra said he may have inadvertently made a mistake, adding he had the duty to inform women about potential serious risks of high stimulation IVF.

BBC Inside Out West's report can be seen on BBC One in the West at 19:30 GMT on Monday 29 October, and afterwards on the BBC iPlayer.
