Shady Grove Fertility Centers Becomes Nation's Largest Fertility Practice
Posted on: Tuesday, 22 August 2006, 15:00 CDT
ROCKVILLE, Md., Aug. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Shady Grove Fertility Centers, a nationally reputed Fertility and IVF practice is now the largest fertility center in the United States. Established in 1991, the Center took a holistic approach to treating the infertile couple by providing not only exceptional medical care but by also allocating resources to support the emotional and financial impact of infertility. In 1993, Shady Grove Fertility launched a controversial pay for performance Shared Risk Refund Program that guaranteed the couple would deliver a baby or receive a 100% refund. It was unheard of for a medical practice to address fee compensation in this way, but today, this type of program is the commonplace among fertility centers. Adherence to a high standard of innovation and focus on patient needs has been the driving force behind the practice's ongoing popularity among patients, the referring medical community, and health insurers.
In eight offices located throughout the Washington Metropolitan and surrounding areas, Shady Grove Fertility offers patients access to the most cutting edge fertility treatment available today but not at the expense of personalized care. The practice is structured so that the physicians and medical teams do not rotate; ensuring patients experience day-to-day continuity of care. Dr. Stillman explains, "Too often, patients have to choose between receiving state of the art medical care or individualized attention. Our goal has always been to provide the best of both worlds; access to the best medical treatment, delivered by warm, caring health professionals." He continues, "This formula has allowed Shady Grove Fertility to achieve an unparalleled level of success in our field."
In August 2006, Shady Grove Fertility will add three new physicians to their team, making a total of eighteen fertility specialists. "The reputation of Shady Grove Fertility Centers has placed us in the fortunate position of being able to recruit the top specialists from around the country," said Dr. Stillman. "Not only do we look for exceptional medical training and experience but also it is important that a new doctor fits into the culture of our practice. Our new physicians, Simon J. Kipersztok, MD, Jeanne O'Brien, MD, and Rachana Garde, MD, all sub-specialty trained in reproductive endocrinology and infertility, are well suited to providing the high standards of quality care that have become our practice hallmark."
