"This is the perfect opportunity for CareMount Medical to extend our medical capabilities to individuals and couples having difficulty conceiving and those looking to preserve their fertility," stated CareMount CEO, Scott D. Hayworth, MD, FACOG. "By offering fertility treatment and fertility preservation services across our expansive network of physicians and care locations, we are even more prepared to treat the full spectrum of healthcare needs of patients in our community."
Dr. Alan Copperman, Managing Director of RMA of New York and Division Director and Vice Chairman of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai agreed. "By addressing the reproductive needs of a large population with compassionate, precise, accessible, and data-driven medicine, we will be delivering superior outcomes for this community."
Both CareMount Medical and RMA of New York are eager to support an expanded base of local residents in their family-building journeys. "The opening of a full-service, state-of-the-art IVF center in Mount Kisco represents a landmark in our ability to better serve both the individual and the community," stated Dr. Jeffrey Klein, Medical Director of RMA of New York at CareMount. Patients will no longer need to travel outside of the Hudson Valley for assisted reproductive procedures. "This partnership will allow us to build upon our decades-long commitment to Westchester County and the surrounding areas, and to provide each and every patient with access to excellent family-building care," stated Dr. Matthew Lederman, Practice Director of RMA of New York at CareMount.
Dr. Rachel Gerber, an expert Reproductive Endocrinologist and Infertility Specialist, joins Drs. Klein and Lederman in supporting patients seeking fertility treatment. RMA of New York at CareMount will offer services including fertility testing, in vitro fertilization (IVF), fertility preservation treatments in the form of egg freezing, embryo freezing, and sperm banking, as well as egg donation, intrauterine insemination (IUI), semen analysis, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), LGBTQ+ family-building services, and more.
