At The Fertility Center, we know that infertility is a deeply personal issue affecting all areas of a couple’s life. Founded in 1991 by Dr. William Dodds & Dr. James Young, we offer services designed to address each couple’s unique needs from basic fertility evaluation to In Vitro Fertilization and Donor services. We draw upon the extensive experience of our physicians, lab director and nursing professionals to optimize your chances for success. In addition to our medical services, we offer one-on-one counseling services with a certified infertility counselor, free of charge. We invite you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Valerie Shavell, Dr. Mili Thakur, Dr. Emma Giuliani, or Dr. Gary Jones at one of our locations in Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Mason, or Traverse City, where together we can develop a successful treatment plan for achieving your dream.

Referred to as our resident “ray of sunshine” by many patients, Dani, one of our MAs, received the sweetest gift from a patient today.

Dani was so excited to add this sign to our new blood draw room. We are lucky to have the most thoughtful patients ♥️

Much of our success as a practice is connected to the success of our lab partners at . They are the other half that makes us whole. Together, we partner everyday to bring the best care possible to our patients.

That’s why we’re so proud of their team! Sending big congratulations to Dr. Aldo Esterhuizen & Dr. Nagham Younis on receiving the Ovation Fertility Leader of the Year and Rising Star awards, respectively. In addition to their individual accomplishments, their entire laboratory team achieved an Ovation Cup runner-up status, recognizing their operational success in 2024.

Congratulations to you all!
