Boston IVF, a worldwide leader in reproductive healthcare, research, and education, is pleased to announce the addition of award-winning and internationally recognized reproductive endocrinologist Gary Frishman, MD (he/him) to its growing fertility treatment practice and local fertility clinic in Providence, RI.

He is now accepting new patients at Rhode Island's first-ever free-standing IVF center and laboratory, Boston IVF’s Providence Fertility Center.

Double board-certified in reproductive endocrinology and infertility, Dr. Frishman joins Boston IVF from Women and Infants Hospital in Providence, RI.

He brings a full range of expertise in fertility treatments and family building services, including IUI, IVF, genetic testing, egg freezing, LGBTQIA+ options, oncofertility, single parenting, and more.

A mainstay in the Providence reproductive medicine community since 1991, Dr. Frishman has been selected as a Top Fertility Doctor by Rhode Island Monthly Magazine in every issue since its inception.

"To add a reproductive endocrinologist of Dr. Frishman's vast experience to the Boston IVF physician team is substantial and truly great news for our patients," said David Stern, MBA – CEO of Boston IVF. "As both a talented clinician and passionate educator, he is a quintessential fit for Boston IVF."

Alongside Dr. Frishman's significant clinical experience and mission to optimize clinical outcomes for individuals and couples who wish to build families through assisted reproductive technologies, he is also a passionate educator and researcher.

Since 1991, he has held an appointment at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, where, as a Clinical Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, he teaches the next generation of fertility doctors. Additionally, Dr. Frishman served a six-year term on the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACMGE) and is the only physician in the United States to hold working group roles for both the Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Fellowship Milestones at Brown University.

"I was drawn to Boston IVF for countless reasons – but what truly impresses me is the organization's ability and dedication to treating each individual or couple uniquely and based on their specific circumstance," said Gary Frishman, MD. "As a reproductive endocrinologist, researcher, and educator – I understand how instrumental each of these components is to create both a clinical and scientific ecosystem that maximizes the success of each patient. To join a practice like Boston IVF and work alongside so many experts who embrace this vision and flourish in such an environment is a perfect match."

A former President of both the Society for Reproductive Surgeons (SRS) and the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL), Dr. Frishman continues to be recognized in both North America and abroad for his contributions to Women's Health. He regularly contributes to medical literature and has been invited to present numerous lectures throughout North America and four other continents worldwide. He was the American representative of the International Advisory Board for The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist and currently serves as Deputy Editor for the Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology.

He has been on the boards of Big Sisters of Rhode Island and Day One, having served as Vice President for both organizations and most recently sat on the board of City Year. He currently sits on the Advocacy Board for the Rhode Island Blood Center.
