Doctor Bio
Even as a young girl, I always wanted to be a doctor. After college, I moved from Chicago to California for medical school. A rotation on the Stanford IVF service inspired me to go into OB/GYN. After finishing my residency, I completed a fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at UCSF. I then went back to Stanford, where my interest in fertility preservation for cancer survivors led me to set up one of the first oocyte cryopreservation programs in the US. As the Director of Women's Health and the REI Fellowship Director, I was involved in a number of research and educational activities. Currently, I am Professor Emerita and the Chief Medical Officer of Kindbody.

The fertility treatment journey can be extremely stressful... but it doesn't have to be. Get the support of a Board Certified ELANZA Coach that can help you prioritize your needs, help you process new information and emotions, and help you create the family you choose.
There are many ways to build a family and everyone does it differently. I want patients to feel that they are not alone and I am on whatever fertility journey they choose. My role is to educate, support, and provide the care that I would want for my own daughters.
