Meet Dr. Shahin Ghadir

Dr. Shahin Ghadir is a leading fertility specialist and double board certified physician in Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. A founding partner of one of the nation’s top fertility centers, he also serves as an assistant clinical professor at UCLA and USC. Widely recognized as a Top Doctor in the U.S., Dr. Ghadir is known for his approachable nature and commitment to helping patients achieve their dream of building a family.

What We Talk About

  • Why fertility challenges are rising, how the biological clock truly works for men and women, and the key tests that give a clear picture of your reproductive timeline.

  • When to consider egg freezing, why timing matters so much, and what the real egg freezing process feels like from injections to retrieval to recovery.

  • How IVF has evolved, including modern genetic testing that screens embryos for all chromosomes and dramatically improves success rates.

  • What actually affects egg quality, what doesn’t, and why waiting to “get healthy first” can sometimes work against you.

  • Fertility pathways for same sex couples and single parents, from reciprocal IVF to donor eggs, donor sperm, and navigating surrogacy with clarity and confidence.

  • Costs and accessibility of fertility care, how insurance and employer benefits play a role, and what Dr. Ghadir hopes will change in the future.

  • The biggest myths he wants to dispel and the most important advice he gives every patient: get informed early so you can make empowered decisions about your future family.
