I enjoy teaching patients about their reproductive health. My goal is to make sure my patients understand their diagnosis and, together, we set goals and create a treatment plan. I want to make patients feel comfortable and supported. It can be a stressful journey and many patients enter our office after months, or even years, of suffering from infertility. I take the time to listen to their experiences, relieve any anxiety they may have, and create a roadmap for their reproductive future. As a reproductive specialist, I love that our field remains dedicated to continuous research and development. Our field is relatively new: the first IVF baby was born in 1978 and it is amazing to see how the field has changed since that monumental birth. I am excited to see what the future holds and expect that, as our knowledge of reproductive health continues to expand, we will be able to help more patients create the families they desire.
