Andrew Silverman, M.D., Ph.D.
 Dr.
Silverman graduated from medical school and simultaneously completed
a doctorate in microbiology at the State University of New York
in Buffalo, NY. He then completed a year of medical internship at
the University of Michigan.
Dr. Silverman was selected
to serve as a research associate at the National Cancer Institute
at the National Institutes of Health. He then completed his residency
in Obstetrics and Gynecology at McGill University in Montreal
Canada.
Dr. Silverman served as an Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology
at the University of Texas in San Antonio. He developed a keen interest
in reproductive health issues and decided to pursue subspecialty
training in reproductive endocrinology. Upon completion of
his training, he served as Director of the In-Vitro Fertilization program there.
In 1984, Dr. Silverman and his family moved to New York, and he has been in private
practice in Manhattan and Westchester County since that time. Dr. Silverman established the first free standing IVF center in the
Northeast, and was responsible for the first IVF pregnancy outside
of a University Hospital unit.
In 1987, Dr. Silverman became interested in Dr. Ericsson's work
in Gender Selection. After extensive study with Dr. Ericsson,
Dr. Silverman began offering Dr. Ericsson's Method of gender
selection to his patients. In thousands of cases, this procedure
has been extremely successful in increasing the odds of a couple
having a child of their desired sex.
Utilizing his extensive experience and expertise
in vitro fertilization, Dr. Silverman is now offering patients
in vitro fertilization with preimplantation genetic diagnosis
(IVF/PGD). IVF with PGD is extremely effective for family balancing
because only embryos of the desired gender are transferred to the
mother's uterus.
Dr. Silverman's practice
is limited to gynecology, fertility and gender selection.
