I feel privileged to meet happy young women who want to donate eggs to help others. The best thing for me is when I can contact a recipient or a recipient couple and tell her/them that I have found an egg donor for her/them.

Juliane Haahr Steffen
Fertility Coordinator
Hello, my name is Juliane. I am a fertility coordinator and psychotherapist at the Sellmer Clinic.
In my psychotherapeutic practice, I have already met and treated many people with unfulfilled desire to have children and in 2023 I dared to start working with that background at this fertility clinic.
It became a real matter of the heart for me to be able to create a balanced synthesis between the biological and psychological aspects of the desire to have children. It is so incredibly important that people with an unfulfilled desire to have children feel seen and heard in all the challenges that their journey to having the child of their dreams brings with it.
I am myself the mother of a child who was able to see the light of day thanks to the help of a sperm donor.
I am looking forward to welcoming you to the Sellmer Clinic!

Bodil Marloth Meldgaard
Clinic Manager, Aarhus
My name is Bodil. I am the clinic manager at Sellmer Klinik’s department in Aarhus. I am also responsible for sales and marketing in the clinic. My job is primarily to make the day-to-day running of the clinic work so that you can experience professional treatment. I have a donor child myself, so we have been through fertility treatment and know the many questions that may arise along the way.
I also prepare egg donor profiles in close collaboration with our egg donor coordinators. A task that fills me with great gratitude every time I receive material from an egg donor – when I realise what a great gift she gives to others.
I originally have a master’s degree in experiences, marketing and tourism, but have worked in the fertility industry for many years. Both in a sperm bank and at fertility clinics. That’s why I have a great deal of knowledge of the legislation in different countries.

For more than 20 years, I have been a consultant at Aarhus University Hospital and have been responsible for reproductive surgery and benign gynaecology. I am an internationally recognised expert in the field of reproductive gynaecology, with a special interest in gynaecological ultrasound and binocular surgery of the uterus. I have written textbooks and have over 100 internationally recognised scientific articles. I have always strived for high professional standards.
For many years, the various fertility clinics in the area have referred fertility patients with uterine abnormalities to me for treatment, which has given me special experience. Fertility has always been my special interest and I have worked at various fertility clinics over the years alongside my work as a consultant. For the past two years I have worked exclusively at fertility clinics and now at Sellmer’s clinic.

Being able to help others fulfil their biggest dream is amazing. I’m a mum myself and know how wonderful it is when dreams come true.
You’ll mainly meet me when you need an egg retrieval and egg transfer. Otherwise, I sit in the lab and look after the eggs (fertilising them, looking at them and scoring them, and selecting which eggs to put back and which are suitable for freezing. And then of course I also clean sperm samples/thaw them from the freezer.
You can also meet me for blood sampling and other places in the clinic.

Looking forward to helping you fulfil your dream.
