Approximately one in eight couples are affected by infertility in the United States, and this number is increasing each year.

A reproductive endocrinology physician provides advanced infertility procedures. In Alaska, many patients must travel out of state for the treatment.

But Alaska does have some infertility services to bridge the gap — and provide much needed evaluation and treatment options closer to home.
