133: It’s Not That Complicated…Or is it? with Dr. John Storment and Traci Keen

Listen Later

It is no secret that demand far exceeds supply in the word of fertility treatment, a gap franchises like Mate Fertility seek to close. But REI’s, like Dr. John Storment, argue that the training process employed by organizations like Mate merely imply board certification, and oversimplify years’ worth of education and training. Traci Keen believes that her company is serving the needs of patients with integrity and diligence, providing access to care that would be otherwise unavailable due to the lack of board-certified REIs in existence.

Who is right? Is access to care, even if it is not in line with ASRM guidelines, better than no care at all? Is this the evolution of fertility patient treatment?

Listen to the latest episode of Inside Reproductive Health to learn:

  • How impactful the care-access gap is to the evolution of fertility treatment.
  • Griffin press on the difference between private equity and venture capital’s place in the industry.
  • Dr. Stroman discuss how fellowship training in REI is absolutely necessary and OB/GYN physicians cannot be equally trained in mini-programs provided by organizations like Mate.
  • Traci Keen argue the criticism of Mate Fertility’s training program, how they provide an evolved model of care, and how they plan to increase accessibility of treatment.
