Physicians and Staff
At the Duke Fertility Center, you will see expert physicians that are active in setting the national standards for fertility care. Our physicians are train and certify the next generation of elite fertility specialists, which helps them stay at the forefront of the latest advances.
Our physicians are also active members of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, the Society of Gynecologic Investigation and the Society for Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. As members of national practice guideline committees, we continually work with fertility experts across the country to evaluate and revise the standards for fertility care.
But you may not be aware of all this — because each of our physicians has his or her own private practice. When you come to the Duke Fertility Center, you will develop a personal relationship with one of our physicians who will work with you to direct your care. In this way, only our most senior and experienced physicians are directly involved in the critical stages of your care.
In addition to your primary fertility physician, the Duke Fertility Center has put together an integrated team of nurses, psychologists, embryologists and support staff who work together to address all of your physical, emotional, and financial concerns.
