Hear one patient’s #FINA story.💕
“If we could give 10 stars we would. Dr. D and his entire staff were heaven sent. The nurses are the best at what they do. They’re very personable and compassionate. Kendra, Tarryn and Abby are gems and they really made me comfortable every time I came into the office. They’re always so sweet and positive. They explained everything that was going on with me very thoroughly. I always looked forward to my visits with them.
My last visit was bittersweet and I can truly say I’ll miss this wonderful group of people. We received great news that we’re pregnant and expecting in June of 2022. Thank you FINA for all you’ve done to help make our dreams of being parents come true. We’re truly grateful for you all. God bless!”❤
Thank you so much to our patient for sharing her #FINA story! We appreciate you so much!

A special week at FINA!
This is a very special week at FINA! This week marks one year since we began seeing patients in our new facility!
We have so enjoyed the extra space and the beautiful architecture. And we have loved the convenience of having our very own state-of-the-art IVF lab and reproductive surgery suite right here in our own building.
We are continually improving so we can serve you better, and we are so thankful for all who choose us to do such an important work in their lives.

Cancer and Cryopreservation
Cancer and Cryopreservation…
Why should a woman or a man with cancer consider this?
A woman is born with all of the eggs that she will ever have, averaging 300,000 remaining eggs when she starts puberty. Certain types of chemotherapy and/or radiation localized to the pelvic region can kill or damage some or all of the eggs in the ovary. Therefore, it is often prudent to cryopreserve (freeze) eggs or embryos prior to undergoing these potentially harmful therapies in order to preserve a woman’s future ability to conceive and become pregnant.
A male produces sperm in his testes on a continual basis. Once produced, the sperm goes through 2-3 months of transport where it gains maturity and functionality. Certain types of chemotherapy and/or radiation localized to the pelvic region can damage the ability of the testes to produce and/or transport healthy sperm. Therefore, it is often prudent to cryopreserve (freeze) sperm prior to undergoing these potentially harmful therapies in order to preserve one’s future ability to conceive.
Since time is often of the essence with our oncology patients, these are top priority on FINA’s schedule. FINA works closely with your oncology team to consult with every patient desiring a consultation within 1-3 days of initial request.
You can schedule your initial consultation to discuss your current cancer treatment plan and the options available to you by calling us at 256-217-9613 or by visiting our website.
Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month
October is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month. This is a time when we can show support to the many families who have suffered such a tragic loss.
While child loss may be a more common occurrence than people think, there are still far too many families that face the devastating moments alone, desperate for support before, during or after the loss of a baby.
To all the families who have experienced this loss, we are so sorry. You are loved and supported, and your baby will never be forgotten.
