Fertility Answers gives to our community
Community means a great deal to the doctors and staff of Fertility Answers and our outreach, resident education and philanthropy mirror our commitment to helping couples build families and furthering the advancement of education and social programs in the field of human reproduction.
Our annual Gift of Hope program grants a free IVF cycle to one deserving couple each year who demonstrates the medical, financial and emotional need for the procedure.
Dr. Storment and Dr. Chappell have served as Clinical Associate Professors with Louisiana State University School of Medicine and actively work with and mentors the LSU Obstetric and Gynecology residents at the University Medical Center in Lafayette and Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge.
