Dr. Alex Thompson, a dedicated fertility specialist at our new Warrington, PA location, provides a wide range of fertility services aimed at assisting the 1 in 8 couples who face challenges in conceiving.
About Dr. Thompson
Trained at a prestigious Ivy League institution, Dr. Thompson is not only a skilled reproductive endocrinologist but also a former educator at the medical school, where he received multiple accolades for his teaching prowess.
“The most compelling aspect of working in infertility for me is the opportunity to empathize with those experiencing a loss of control in their lives. My own experiences have instilled in me a deep understanding of this struggle,” shares Dr. Thompson.
At the age of 12, Dr. Thompson faced a life-altering injury that left him paralyzed from the waist down. This setback did not deter his competitive spirit; he excelled in wheelchair tennis, competing globally. His determination became a driving force in his pursuit of a medical career, culminating in his achievement as the first student in a wheelchair to graduate from his medical school.
