Meet Our Program Director
Welcome to the Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Fellowship at Emory University School of Medicine.
Our program has grown alongside the field itself — from the early expansion of assisted reproductive technologies to today's rapidly evolving landscape of genetics, fertility preservation, and reproductive equity. Through that growth, our commitment has stayed constant: rigorous academic training paired with thoughtful, compassionate patient care. We aim to develop not just technical expertise, but physicians who think critically, remain curious, and advocate meaningfully for their patients.
We are proud of the community we've built here — faculty and fellows who genuinely value collaboration and who push each other to ask better questions. Our goal is to train outstanding REI physicians and to mentor the next generation of leaders who will shape this field with integrity and purpose. We're glad you're exploring what that looks like at Emory, and we invite you to learn more about the people, values, and experiences that define us.
— Heather Hipp, MD Fellowship Program Director, Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility Emory University School of Medicine
