What do you like about this subject?

I love everything about what I do, but the best part is helping couples to achieve their most precious goal of creating another life!

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Just because a doctor calls himself an "infertility specialist" it doesn't necessarily mean he/she has ANY background/training in infertility! Any doc with a license to practice medicine has a legal right to call himself an infertility specialist. Reproductive Endocrinologists have completed extra years of INTENSIVE training in either helping people get pregnant or stay pregnant.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Any doctor with a license to practice medicine has a legal right to call himself an infertility specialist, regardless of their background or training!
