Q&A with Dr. Channing Burks Chatmon

What do you like most about what you do?
I consider it an honor to be able to stand alongside my patients during their journey to overcome challenges with infertility and/or pregnancy loss in order to fulfill their dream of starting or expanding upon their family.

In practice, what are you most proud of?
I am most proud of the strong relationships that I am able to build with my patients. By sincerely listening to the unique story of each patient, I am able to provide them with individualized and evidence-based treatment options and through shared decision-making with each patient, determine a plan.

Why did you choose to work in the field of reproductive medicine?
I was drawn to reproductive medicine due to the importance of family in my own personal life and the innovative nature of the field. I am excited to walk alongside my patients in their journey to build upon their own families and am proud to be a part of a field that is constantly evolving and developing new and exciting technologies with the goal of improving patient outcomes.

What do you consider your special areas of interest in reproductive medicine and why?
Prior to my training in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, I completed a fellowship in Recurrent Pregnancy Loss, providing me with a special interest and experience helping patients that struggle with pregnancy loss. I also take a special interest in reproductive surgery, and the management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome as well as other ovulatory dysfunction disorders. Finally, addressing racial and ethnic disparities in reproductive medicine including increasing education, health literacy and promoting improved access to fertility care will be a life-long goal for me during my career.

What is your approach to medicine?
I strive to provide my patients with compassionate, personalized, evidence-based treatment plans that focus of their specific needs and wishes.
