Our Practice
Infertility Solutions, P.C. was established by Bruce I. Rose, Ph.D.,
M.D. to provide specialized care for women with gynecological problems and
couple's experiencing infertility. We strive to meet both the clinical and
emotional needs of our patients.
The practice is supported by a state-of-the-art advanced reproductive laboratory. We believe that laboratory quality is what distinguishes infertility practices from one another. Our laboratory is nationally certified. Our small size enables us to have a closer connection between clinical medicine and a subspecialty laboratory than many larger practices.
This practice has long had both a clinical and research focus on male infertility. We are supported by our male infertility assessment laboratory and sperm/embryo cyrobank.
Infertility care is tailored to the needs of each patient. We believe in an active, as opposed to observational, approach to achieving pregnancy as quickly as possible.
We are very aware of the burden that limitied insurance coverage places on patients and have tried to utilize approaches that maximize the impact of their resources.
Advanced Reproductive Technology
Infertility Solutions, P.C. offers leading edge advanced reproductive technologies including in vitro fertilization (IVF), intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), fertilization technology utilizing testicular sperm (TESE), PGD, embryo cryopreservation and assisted hatching. IVF, ICSI and TESE enable us to treat almost any male infertility problem including cases in which no sperm is in the ejaculate. Assisted hatching maximizes our effectiveness in achieving pregnancies in women over age 35. Embryo cryopreservation decreases the cost of achieving pregnancy with IVF in younger women. PGD is a new technology which involves removing a single cell from an embryo and sending it for genetic diagnosis. It can be used to select normal embryos from patients with genetic translocations and X-linked diseases. It can also be used for sex selection.
Infertility
Infertility can be attributed to multiple factors, and many of which are treatable. Because the factors which produce fertility are shared almost equally by male and female, treatment requires that both partners be evaluated.
A thorough evaluation usually begins with the simplest test and progresses to the more complicated. The results can help determine the best course of treatment for increasing the couple's probability of achieving pregnancy.
Breakthroughs in medications, microsurgery, and advanced reproductive technologies offer more hope than ever before for infertile couples.
Reproductive surgery
As a specially trained microsurgeon, Dr. Rose offers the highest level of expertise in reproductive pelvic surgery including tubal ligation reversal. An increasing focus of his practice is providing extensive reconstructive surgery through very small laparoscopic incisions. This is both cosmetically more desirable than the traditional approach and greatly decreases recovery time.
Dr. Rose also possesses expertise in some of the newer reproductive techniques including removal of fibroids through the hysteroscope, endometrial ablation, ovarian drilling and transcervical tubal cannulization of blocked tubes.
