We’re now home to Nevada’s only female board certified fertility specialist
Our Las Vegas fertility center has a big announcement to make: Our own Carrie Bedient, M.D., recently became the state of Nevada’s only female board certified fertility specialist, or reproductive endocrinologist.
Board certification in reproductive endocrinology and infertility is awarded by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology only after several years of advanced medical training and an intensive testing process, making Dr. Bedient one of a small number of reproductive endocrinologists nationwide who meets our nation’s highest standards for knowledge in this sub-specialty field.
What it takes to become a female board certified fertility specialist
Before becoming our state’s only female board certified fertility specialist, Dr. Bedient completed an intensive fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) at Emory University, as well as a residency at Case Western Reserve University & Cleveland Clinic Foundation. We were proud to welcome her to our team of Las Vegas fertility specialists in 2015.
To earn REI certification, Dr. Bedient received extensive training focused on diagnosing complex reproductive disorders, as well as the latest advanced treatment options to help men and women grow their families. To become board certified, she passed both written and oral exams proving her knowledge of this complex and evolving field of medicine.
Among the procedures she has mastered as a board certified fertility specialist are IVF, egg freezing for fertility preservation and minimally invasive fertility surgery.
An award-winning physician and researcher, Dr. Bedient shares her knowledge as a clinical assistant professor at the University of Nevada School of Medicine.
Expertise matters
Board certification is a tremendous accomplishment for any specialist, but it’s just one milestone in Dr. Bedient’s journey of lifelong learning. To maintain continuous certification, Dr. Bedient will pursue ongoing training, assessment and examinations, staying abreast of the newest developments in reproductive endocrinology and infertility. Her ongoing commitment to education places our team of Las Vegas fertility specialists at the forefront of our field.
We hope you’ll get to know Dr. Bedient and take full advantage of her expertise in infertility and reproductive endocrinology on your own journey to have a baby. To make an appointment with Nevada’s only female board certified fertility specialist, contact us today.
