Diana-Chavkin

“My three children were conceived through IVF and so I know all too well how this journey can actually be a roller coaster ride. I am incredibly grateful to this field since it allowed me to build my own family and also because it allowed me to have the best job in the world. Dedicating my life to helping others build families who would not have otherwise been able to do so without the help of medicine is a true honor. I strive to be the best fertility doctor that I can be by offering honest, compassionate and individualized care with exceptional outcomes."
