FAQs

Preguntas Frecuentes de Clínicas

Respuestas a preguntas frecuentes de clínicas de fertilidad y laboratorios de embriología

How far in advance should we book?

Para transferencias planificadas, recomendamos reservar con 1-2 semanas de antelación. Sin embargo, una vez que ambas clínicas estén listas, podemos atender solicitudes urgentes el mismo día y al día siguiente con servicio prioritario.

Can we ship multiple patients' samples together?

Yes, absolutely. We can consolidate multiple samples in one shipment to the same destination clinic, which often reduces per-patient costs. Each sample maintains separate chain of custody documentation.

What if the receiving clinic changes their schedule?

We understand clinic schedules can change. Contact us immediately and we'll coordinate with all parties to adjust pickup/delivery times. For significant delays, we can arrange temporary storage at an approved facility.

Do you provide the dry shipper or do we need our own?

We provide IATA-compliant dry shippers with all necessary equipment. If you prefer to use your own shipper, we can accommodate that, though it must meet our safety and certification standards.

How do we track the shipment?

Your courier sends status updates at pickup, at handover and if plans change. A temperature logger records the shipper for the whole transfer, and both clinics receive the record after delivery.
