Training and expertise

Emily qualified as a Registered Adult Nurse in 2013 and has since developed extensive experience across fertility, women's health, neonatal intensive care, maternity high dependency and surgical nursing. She is also an Independent Nurse Prescriber (V300), enabling her to provide holistic care to her patients.

Her specialist interests include donor conception, egg donation, sperm donation, IVF, ICSI, fertility preservation, egg freezing, ovulation induction and early pregnancy care. She is passionate about patient education, multidisciplinary working and delivering personalised, evidence-based fertility care.

The most rewarding part of my role is helping patients navigate what can often feel like an overwhelming journey. Being able to provide reassurance, celebrate milestones and support people as they work towards building their family is an absolute privilege, and it's what makes coming to work every day so rewarding

Career

Emily Starling is a Specialist Practitioner in Donation at Care Fertility.

Working closely with multidisciplinary colleagues, she ensures every patient feels informed, supported and confident throughout their fertility journey.

Since qualifying as a nurse, Emily has worked across a variety of clinical settings, including neonatal intensive care, maternity, surgical services and fertility. Fertility nursing has become her true passion, allowing her to combine clinical expertise with long-term patient relationships during one of the most significant periods of patients' lives. Before joining the donation team, she worked as a Fertility Nurse Specialist across both Care Fertility and Apricity Fertility, gaining extensive experience in IVF, ICSI, ovulation induction, fertility preservation, donor treatment and early pregnancy care. Returning to Care Fertility has allowed her to continue developing within a supportive, patient-centred organisation while focusing on helping patients build their families through donation.
