Hi, I’m Shane Lipskind, and I’m the medical director at ACFS. As a double board-certified Obstetrician-Gynecologist and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility subspecialist, I feel incredibly fortunate to have gravitated toward one of the most dynamic and compelling fields in all of medicine.
If you’re reading this page, it’s likely that you understand why. While the science of reproductive medicine is undeniably fascinating in its own right, it was the promise of helping patients to fulfill their dreams of family and a better quality of life that inspired me to become a reproductive endocrinologist. I ultimately completed a 3-year fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital and devoted myself to acquiring the skills and expertise necessary to provide the highest level of reproductive care. There, I gained broad and in-depth first-hand experience in the evaluation and treatment of infertility and reproductive disorders. I developed special interests in endometriosis, fibroids, premature ovarian insufficiency/failure, polycystic ovarian syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, preimplantation genetic testing, and advanced laparoscopic, hysteroscopic and computer-assisted (robotic) surgery. As a consultant at our partner hospitals, Boston Children’s Hospital and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, I also learned to care for pediatric and adolescent girls in need of specialized gynecologic care and to deliver emergency fertility preservation services to patients facing a diagnosis of cancer.
