About
Dr. Mari Mikadze was the clinical face of Vita Nova Clinic: head doctor, Deputy Director of its Center for Reproductive Medicine, and head of the gynecology department, according to the official-site biography that survives verbatim on two independent mirror pages. She is a Georgian obstetrician-gynecologist who earned her medical degree at the Latvian Medical Academy in Riga in 1997 and holds the post-Soviet research degree Candidate of Medical Sciences.
Her sub-specialty training reads like a map of the region’s reproductive-medicine centers: obstetrics and gynecology internship and gynecologic endocrinology residency in Moscow, hysteroscopy in Moscow, and IVF specializations at Hadassah University Hospital in Jerusalem, in Vilnius, and in St. Petersburg. Within the clinic she was the physician patients actually point to - of the three doctors listed on a booking platform for Vita Nova, hers is the page with the most consultations (319) and the highest rating (4.8), and the surviving Google Maps reviews from 2022 name “Dr. Mari” repeatedly in surrogacy-journey testimonials.
One caution belongs in her profile, not just the clinic’s: Repro Society’s 2026 audit found that Mikadze’s credentials and RAHR/ESHRE memberships exist only as clinic-published self-description, with no matching record found in ESHRE registries, PubMed or Russian-language sources, and she appears simultaneously on the staff pages of three Tbilisi-area clinics around the same Lubliana street block (Vita Nova, Clinic Atlas, and a WhatClinic listing for a third). The clinic’s own website went offline in mid-2026 - see the clinic page status note - so confirm her current practice location and credentials directly before booking.
Clinical Expertise
- Recurrent pregnancy loss: diagnosis and management of repeated miscarriage and implantation failure, named as a core specialty in her bio and echoed in patient reviews describing years of failed attempts before Vita Nova
- IVF cycle leadership: full donor-egg and surrogacy cycle management - stimulation, retrieval, transfer and pregnancy monitoring - as the clinic’s senior reproduction physician
- Gynecologic endocrinology: Moscow residency training applied to hormonal and ovulatory causes of infertility
- Hysteroscopic surgery: specialist training in uterine cavity assessment and correction before transfer
- Pediatric gynecology: listed in her official bio as a third clinical focus alongside infertility and miscarriage
Why Choose Dr. Mari Mikadze
She carries the clinic’s strongest patient-facing record: every surviving first-person review collected for Vita Nova names her specifically, with recurring language about calm, detailed explanations that settled anxious patients after long negative histories elsewhere (“I was an extremely anxious patient… but speaking with her immediately calmed me,” Google Maps review, November 2022).
The combination of a Candidate of Medical Sciences research degree, Jerusalem IVF training and Moscow endocrinology and surgical specialties is unusual breadth in the Tbilisi market, and she deployed it as the clinic’s head doctor rather than a consultant - meaning protocol decisions sat with her.
Her recurrent-miscarriage and immunological-infertility emphasis maps directly onto the hardest donor and surrogacy cases, which were Vita Nova’s advertised specialty.
Professional Affiliations
Her bio lists membership of RAHR (Russian Association of Human Reproduction) and ESHRE (European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology), and describes active participation in international research and education. Treat both memberships as self-reported: an independent audit (Repro Society, 2026-07) located no registry records confirming them once the clinic’s own site ceased to exist. No license number is published; request her Georgian practice license when verifying current status.
Suitable For
- Couples with repeated losses or failed cycles: her miscarriage-workup profile is the reason complex cases were referred to her rather than to general IVF clinicians at the clinic
- Donor-egg and surrogacy intended parents: she managed the medical core of third-party programs, from recipient preparation through pregnancy monitoring
- Women with endocrine-driven infertility: PCOS, ovulatory and hormonal disorders evaluated with her Moscow endocrinology training
- Patients wanting one senior physician across the whole journey: the head-doctor role meant consultation, protocol and surgical decisions sat with a single accountable clinician
