Bristol Centre for Reproductive Medicine (BCRM) has recently appointed a new consultant gynaecologist and subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery.
Dr Guy Morris joins the clinic’s Aztec West team. He brings a wealth of expertise in fertility preservation, reproductive endocrinology, and male factor subfertility to the role, boosting the clinic’s capabilities in these crucial areas.
He said: “I’m thrilled to be joining BCRM and to be able to draw and lean on its collective experience at the start of my consulting career. BCRM has been in place since the ‘90s, its core team having been together for a very long time and have a huge amount of experience. There is a great sense of community among the people who work there who form a tight knit group, which it is a privilege to be part of.”
Dr Morris, who also works in the Gynaecology Department at North Bristol NHS Trust, says he is keen to raise awareness of male subfertility in his new role. He added: “In the past, the emphasis was primarily on the woman’s reproductive health. However, there’s been a noticeable shift towards a more holistic approach, both among the individuals and couples seeking assistance and among clinicians.
“There is now more focus on andrology, the direct equivalent of gynaecology, treating conditions that are unique to men. We’re now paying closer attention to the male partner’s role in fertility; this more balanced consideration of both partners’ needs represents a positive evolution in our approach.”
