So You Want to Be a REPRODUCTIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY & INFERTILITY DOCTOR [Ep. 36]

So you want to be a reproductive endocrinologist. You love babies and want to help make your patients’ dreams of parenthood come true. Let’s debunk the public perception myths of what it means to be a reproductive endocrinologist and give it to you straight. This is the reality of reproductive endocrinology.

Huge shout out to Reproductive Endocrinologist Dr. Carrie Bedient for helping me with this video. See a day in her life on my other channel, Kevin Jubbal, M.D., and check her out on Instagram and at the Fertility Center of Las Vegas - links below.

Reproductive endocrinology and infertility, or REI for short, is the field of medicine concerned with helping people get pregnant who are unable to do so on their own. REI physicians are experts in all things related to conception and reproduction and are adept at managing any issues that may be preventing patients from becoming pregnant.

To become an REI physician, you must first complete four years of OB/GYN residency followed by 3 years of REI fellowship. Occasionally there are urology residents who will cross over to REI; however, the vast majority are OB/GYN trained.

Medical students best suited for reproductive endocrinology and infertility tend to be detail-oriented, patient, and adept at working in a slower-paced yet still high-stress environment.
