Dr. Fady Ihsan Sharara, MD

After struggling to conceive, my husband and I were referred to the VCRM team, and choosing them was one of the best decisions we could have made. Dr. Shahara is incredibly thorough, kind, and experienced, and he and the entire VCRM team genuinely care about their patients. They truly become like family. Infertility is such a personal journey, and having a team that knows you, checks in on you, and supports you every step of the way makes all the difference. Today, I graduated from VCRM 8 weeks pregnant, after two years of unexplained infertility. The VCRM team was there for us through every step, and I am so incredibly grateful they were part of our journey. We can’t wait for them to meet our baby next spring!

We went to Dr. Sharara after having multiple failures with a different clinic. Not only did he treat us with absolute care and compassion, but he was extremely thorough in exploring the causes of our infertility and treating the underlying conditions that could be impacting us. I am so grateful to Dr. Sharara. He was very honest and straightforward with us, and I really appreciated that. Our other clinic told us we had unexplained infertility, but Dr. Sharara actually did the investigative work to see what was going on. Through changes in lifestyle and medication, we were able to get five embryos! I cannot tell you how happy I am to have a chance at another pregnancy due to Dr. Sharara's diligence and care.

From my very first appointment, the entire team made me feel supported, cared for, and genuinely valued. Everyone was kind, compassionate, and professional, and they always took the time to answer my questions and ease any concerns I had. They made what can be a very emotional journey feel much less overwhelming. Dr. Sharara is an exceptional physician. He is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and took the time to explain every step of the process, making me feel confident in my treatment plan. His expertise, along with the outstanding nurses and staff, gave me complete trust that I was receiving the best possible care. The communication throughout the process was excellent, and I always felt informed, encouraged, and supported. I cannot recommend this clinic enough. Every member of the team truly cares about their patients and wants the best possible outcome. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care, encouragement, and kindness I received throughout my journey, and I… will always be thankful for the positive experience they gave me during such an important time in my life.

We had a great experience with Dr. Shahara and his team at VCRM. After a late second trimester loss, Dr. Shahara did a thorough work up to help investigate and ensure we were in a good spot to do another embryo transfer. I was so impressed with all the things he checked compared to the prior fertility clinic we worked with. His team of nurses and front desk reception were a pleasure to work with as well.

My gynecologist recommended that I work with a reproductive endocrinologist, and after doing some research, my husband and I chose VCRM and Dr. Fady Sharara. After the consultation with him and interacting with the staff, my husband and I trusted him to help us on our fertility journey. Dr. Sharara is very knowledgeable and an expert in the field, which made me feel comfortable and confident in putting our trust in him. I appreciated that he did a very thorough and comprehensive diagnostic work up to figure out the best treatment plan. As someone who is also in the healthcare field, I very much appreciate having more data. The nurses (Ava and Jessica), billing coordinator (Trish), and other staff (Maggie) were also wonderful. Compared to the brief experience that I had with a large fertility clinic, VCRM felt like a white glove service. I graduated this week from the clinic at eight and a half weeks pregnant and am incredibly grateful to Dr. Sharara and the entire VCRM team for their… guidance, care, and support. I know that I'm very lucky to have only had to do one round of IVF and for the first transfer to be successful. Dr. Sharara gave me agency to decide when to start IVF (I personally didn’t want to spend much time doing IUI) and was supportive of all my decisions as long as they were medically sound. I highly recommend Dr. Sharara and the entire VCRM staff!

I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience with VCRM. From the very beginning, I felt supported, cared for, and truly seen during such an emotional journey. After dealing with infertility for over 7 years, I truly never thought I would be able to conceive. Dr. Fady Sharara changed my life for the better—he gave me hope when I felt like there was none, and I will forever be grateful for that. His expertise, compassion, and dedication made all the difference for me. I’m so thankful for the protocol he created that worked for my situation, and I genuinely hope he can continue to help others who are just like me find their own success and happiness. A huge thank you to his wonderful nurses, Jill and Jessica, who were always there with kindness, patience, and reassurance whenever I needed it most. They made such a difference in my experience. I also want to recognize Maggie and Trisha at the front desk. No matter what kind of day I was having, they always greeted me with… warmth and a smile, making me feel welcome and cared for. This journey isn’t always easy, but having a team like this behind you makes all the difference. I’m beyond grateful for everyone at VCRM for their support and dedication, and I’m so excited for this new chapter ahead.

I was diagnosed with infertility and chose the Virginia Center for Reproductive Medicine for my care, and I am so grateful that I choose to go to Dr. Fady Sharara, He was really caring, friendly and he took the time at first run all the necessary tests and he thoroughly understood my situation before starting any treatment. I truly appreciated that he focused on consultations and personalized care instead of rushing straight into treatment. Dr. Sharara is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and friendly, which made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. The nurses and staff were equally wonderful—kind, supportive, and always willing to answer questions and reassure me during stressful moments. I never felt alone during this journey. Today, I am graduating from the clinic at eight and a half weeks pregnant, and I am incredibly thankful to Dr. Sharara and the entire VCRM team for their guidance, care, and constant support. I highly recommend this center to anyone going… through infertility—they genuinely care about their patients.

Dr. Shara helped us conceive our second child and he also helped us with our first. He and his staff are incredible. They are thoughtful, empathetic and brilliant. Dr. S is always employing cutting edge research and creating 1:1, personalized care for every patient. His staff make you feel like family and take a challenging experience and make it warm and positive. Dr. S did what another clinic found impossible, he gave us the best gift in the world - our family.

My husband and I were referred to Dr. Sharara by a friend after trying to conceive on our own for over a year. From our first visit, we were impressed by the professionalism of the entire team. The office staff is consistently friendly, kind, and efficient, creating a welcoming and well-organized environment, and scheduling appointments is always straightforward. Dr. Sharara’s direct, to-the-point manner is both reassuring and encouraging. We especially appreciated his willingness to develop a thoughtful diagnostic plan and clearly explain each step of the process along the way. We truly believe that his guidance and expertise played an important role in helping us conceive our first child naturally. We are deeply grateful for the care we received and would highly recommend this practice.

Dr. Sharara and his staff made what could have been a very unpleasant process one of the most comfortable medical experiences I've had as a patient. I came to VCRM with severe endometriosis and trying to get pregnant, a combination that doesn't often go well together. Dr. Sharara was incredibly knowledgable and tailored my treatment to exactly what I needed based on my personal medical history, age, and test results. He performed every test, ultrasound, and procedure himself, and I saw the same two nurses for every appointment. I would call fairly often with questions or concerns as I went through the process, and I always got responses the same day that were helpful, and was never made to feel foolish for asking. His staff was nothing short of amazing, providing gentle and respectful care and positive encouragement. I would enthusiastically recommend Dr. Sharara and VCRM to anyone looking for exceptional care in their fertility journey.
