Infertility is a personal journey that cannot easily be discussed and involves more than 27.5 million couples in India. For many couples, however, fertility care isn’t just about the treatment itself – it’s about the hopes, fears and emotional ups and downs that are involved with trying to conceive. The path may be difficult and ambiguous and the adequate support may transform the situation.
In Pune, Noble Hospitals & Research Centre has become a trusted place for couples walking this road. Starting out as a small IVF department in 2010, it has grown over the years into a comprehensive centre for reproductive care. Today, Noble Hospitals provides a full spectrum of care, from women’s health and childbirth to neonatal and ICU services—all in one place. What sets them apart, though, is their focus on understanding and treating each patient as a person, not just a case.
Under the leadership of Dr. Divij Mane, Director, and Dr. Meenu Agarwal, Director & Sr. Consultant – Reproductive Medicine Specialist (IVF) & Gynaec Endoscopic Surgeon – Department of Reproductive Medicine, Noble Hospitals focuses on more than just medical treatment. They offer steady guidance, clear communication, and emotional support at every stage. Couples don’t just come here for procedures—they come for a partnership, where their hopes are listened to and their concerns are met with kindness and respect.
For many, Noble Hospitals isn’t just a clinic. It’s a place where science and compassion come together to bring the dream of parenthood closer to reality.
Let’s delve into the interview and understand how Noble Hospitals is changing the way fertility care feels—more human, more hopeful, and more personal!
Can you briefly introduce your IVF & Fertility Center and share what sets it apart from others in Pune?
Established in 2010, the IVF department has seen consistent growth and progress over the past one and the half decades. What began as a specialized unit has transformed into a fully integrated medical facility, offering a wide range of services including Gynaecology, Obstetrics, In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). These services are now conveniently available under one roof, ensuring comprehensive care for patients. This evolution reflects the department’s commitment to excellence and innovation in reproductive and maternal healthcare, making it a trusted centre for both expectant mothers and couples seeking fertility treatment.

What are the most advanced or unique treatments and technologies your centre currently offers?
Last year marked a major milestone with extensive renovations that introduced state-of-the-art laboratories equipped with the latest technologies led by excellent expert care to address fertility issues in both men and women. We offer a full range of assisted reproductive techniques, including IUI, TESA, TESE, and Micro TESE and others, tailored to individual needs. In the near future, we plan to introduce an Embryoscope, which will offer real-time imaging of embryo development. The department also serves as a recognized training centre through collaboration with German experts, helping nurture the next generation of fertility specialists.

These shared moments of happiness not only mark milestones for families but also inspire and motivate us to continue providing exceptional fertility care with dedication and heart.
How do you maintain transparency and trust with your patients throughout the treatment process?
Trust and transparency are a key in this journey. The patients are given clarity about the diagnosis, treatment plan and the costs involved. The transparency and the trust that develops ensures that we doctor, staff members and their family members are together in this journey.
What trends or developments do you foresee shaping the future of fertility care in India, and how is your centre preparing for them?
We believe fertility care should be accessible to all. While urban populations currently benefit the most, we are committed to expanding outreach programs and conducting more medical camps in rural and underserved areas, ensuring that advanced fertility care reaches everyone.
