We are proud to share that Dr Kate Maclaran, co-founder of Alma Fertility, has been featured in Tatler’s Doctors Guide: Fertility Experts, a carefully curated list of leading fertility specialists helping patients across London and the UK.
Tatler’s guide highlights trusted private doctors based on recommendations from respected GPs, focusing on clinicians who consistently provide outstanding care, clear communication and excellent patient experiences. Being included is a meaningful mark of independent recognition.
Who is Dr Kate Maclaran?
Dr Kate Maclaran is a highly regarded London-based Consultant Gynaecologist and subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery, known for her warmth, expertise and deeply personal approach to fertility care.
She:
- Co-founded Alma Fertility at Battersea Power Station
- Holds senior roles within the NHS in fertility and reproductive medicine
- Brings both cutting-edge science and lived experience, having undergone IVF herself
Her areas of particular expertise include IVF, egg freezing, menopause and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). She is also deeply committed to women’s health advocacy, research and education.
Patients often describe Kate as clear, kind and empowering – someone who takes the time to explain options, validate emotions and help people feel more in control at what can be a very vulnerable time.
What is Tatler’s Doctors Guide?
Tatler’s Doctors Guide: Fertility Experts is part of a broader series showcasing top private doctors across a range of specialties. For the fertility edition, Tatler approached respected GPs to ask which specialists they trust and recommend most often to their patients.
From these recommendations, Tatler compiled a list of fertility experts known for:
- Exceptional clinical standards
- Strong communication and bedside manner
- Patient-centred, transparent care
The guide is designed as a helpful starting point for people trying to identify reputable specialists when considering private healthcare.
