“I love that every patient I see comes in with a different story, a different presenting issue and requires a personalized approach in order to try to achieve an optimal and satisfactory solution.

"The greatest fulfillment I get from fertility medicine is educating my patients and empowering them to make confident decisions about their fertility. It's important to me that they understand their diagnosis and how it affects my treatment recommendations. For fertility preservation through egg or embryo banking, I believe patients should have a clear and honest understanding of their fertility potential and how it can change over time. My goal is to adapt to evolving priorities and share a common vision with my patients."   Dr. David Scholl completed both medical school and residency in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Toronto. He completed a two-year Fellowship in Gynaecologic Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at the University of Ottawa.
