We are thrilled to introduce Dr. Emily Chen, the latest addition to our team at At Home Insemination! She’s set to start seeing patients in early January 2021. Dr. Chen, whose parents immigrated to the United States, was inspired by their journey and the values they instilled in her. She’s dedicated herself to becoming a reproductive endocrinologist, passionate about helping families realize their dreams of parenthood.
Having witnessed the transformative effects of IVF in her own family, Dr. Chen is driven by the powerful combination of science and personal connections in family building. At our center, she will offer a wide range of fertility services, including:
- Fertility testing and diagnosis
- Semen analysis
- Hysterosalpingogram (HSG)
- In vitro fertilization (IVF)
- Egg, sperm, and embryo donation
- Genetic testing
- Gestational carrier services
- Egg freezing and fertility preservation for cancer patients
- LGBTQIA+ family building options
Dr. Chen, a proud graduate of the University of Virginia, is excited to return to her roots after completing her residency at a prestigious medical center and her fellowship in reproductive endocrinology in Boston. She is board eligible in both obstetrics and gynecology and reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
An active researcher, Dr. Chen has shared her insights across the country through numerous presentations, covering topics such as anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). She also contributes as a peer reviewer for various medical journals.
