76 - Leaving a Legacy: Retiring from the Fertility Field, An Interview with Dr. Selwyn Oskowitz


Listen Later

Choosing when to retire, or more simply, whether or not one should retire, is a difficult question. It takes lots of reflection, looking back on one’s journey throughout their professional life and whether or not they feel like they’ve left no stone unturned as their journey comes to an end. In the field of fertility, it can be even more difficult to make that decision.

On this episode of Inside Reproductive Health, Griffin talks to Dr. Selwyn Oskowitz, founder of Boston IVF and heads the Rwanda Fertility Initiative, an organization with a mission to provide affordable fertility services to every citizen of Rwanda. Dr. Oskowitz retired in 2016, leaving behind a legacy that left its mark across the entire field of reproductive medicine in the United States and beyond. In addition to sharing what he’s been doing with RII, Dr. Oskowitz also discusses why he chose to retire and what he sees are the biggest positive changes to come to our field.
