      Join a team of 8 board certified reproductive endocrinologists, 3 fellows and a robust nursing staff to help provide infertility care to the greater Atlanta area.

With a commitment to evidence-based practice, you'll have a half-day dedicated to didactic studies each week, with the opportunity to participate in grand rounds.
