Ms Lebogang Moatshe – Clinical Embryologist – Erasmuskloof

Ms Lebogang Moatshe – Clinical Embryologist – Erasmuskloof practices at Genesis Reproductive Centre, where she heads the embryology laboratory with precision and care. She earned her BSc in Biochemistry from the University of Johannesburg in 2011, followed by an Hons in Medical Biotechnology at the same university in 2013. Moreover, she completed an MSc in Reproductive Biology from the University of Pretoria in 2017, focusing her thesis on embryo metabolism under varying culture conditions. Consequently, Ms Moatshe brings nearly a decade of specialized expertise to every fertility cycle. Furthermore, she remains active in professional development, attending international workshops on time-lapse imaging and genetic screening, so that Genesis protocols stay at the cutting edge. Above all, her meticulous yet empathetic approach ensures that every couple benefits from transparent insights and the highest laboratory standards.

Services

At Genesis Reproductive Centre, Ms Moatshe oversees a comprehensive suite of embryology services. Each service combines technical rigor with patient-centered communication:

• Gamete Preparation & Assessment
  She evaluates eggs and sperm quality using advanced viability assays, thereby selecting the healthiest gametes for treatment.

• Time-Lapse Embryo Culture
  Moreover, she manages embryos in time-lapse incubators that capture developmental milestones without disturbance. Consequently, she identifies the most viable embryos for transfer.

• Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
  Under high-resolution microscopy, she injects single sperm into oocytes with steady precision. Furthermore, this technique maximizes fertilization rates in male-factor cases.

• Embryo Biopsy & Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)
  She performs precise trophectoderm biopsies on blastocysts. In addition, she liaises with genetics labs to ensure accurate chromosomal analysis while preserving embryo viability.

• Cryopreservation & Vitrification
  She applies ultra-rapid freezing protocols to eggs, sperm, and embryos. Therefore, she achieves post-thaw survival rates above 90%, which provides flexible treatment timelines.

• Assisted Hatching
  To enhance implantation potential, she uses laser-assisted zona thinning. Moreover, this method benefits patients with previous implantation failures.

• Quality Control & Accreditation
  She maintains ISO 9001 standards, oversees daily equipment calibration, and conducts regular proficiency testing. Consequently, the laboratory consistently meets the highest quality benchmarks.

Additional Information

Genesis Reproductive Centre’s embryology laboratory features state-of-the-art infrastructure—including dual-stage CO₂ incubators, humidity-controlled workstations, and a fully compliant clean-room environment. Furthermore, Ms Moatshe coordinates closely with clinicians, genetic counsellors, and andrologists under one roof, which ensures seamless care from egg retrieval to embryo transfer.

We offer flexible scheduling for laboratory procedures, accommodating early-morning egg collections and weekend thaw cycles without delay. Moreover, all laboratory data and imaging are stored securely in a digital records system, safeguarding confidentiality and enabling real-time result sharing with your fertility specialist. The practice adheres to rigorous infection-control protocols, and our clean-room design minimizes contamination risk.

Above all, Ms Moatshe and her team believe that technical excellence and transparent communication are inseparable. Consequently, every couple leaves the laboratory feeling informed, supported, and hopeful.
