From the earliest age, Isela Robertshaw, MD, had a fascination with the sciences and the complexity of the human body. As she pursued these interests, she began to appreciate the abundance of joy that the field of medicine has to offer as well. Today, when she meets a patient for the first time, Dr. Robertshaw understands that they have been through primary care and perhaps other specialists before walking into her office. Her approach is simple: listen and then individualize care to meet their needs.
Reproductive endocrinology is a unique field at the cusp of revolutionary technologies and new medical discoveries. As new cryopreservation technologies are being perfected and awareness of fertility options are reaching patients, the ability to preserve fertility for delayed childbearing is an exciting development for the next generation of couples. From elective fertility preservation to oncology-fertility options for those diagnosed with cancers, these new technologies give not only options but also hope for reproduction.
Dr. Robertshaw feels very fortunate to have found a path in life that allows her to become a part of the joy that couples experience when they are able to start a family.
Dr. Robertshaw resides in Montgomery with her husband and three young children.
