The Howard and Georgeanna Jones Institute for
Reproductive Medicine is world-renowned for its success in treating all types of
endocrine and fertility problems. Services provided include endocrine and
infertility evaluation, ovulation induction, artificial insemination, in vitro

the field. Services provided include in vitro fertilization, gamete intra-fallopian
transfer (GIFT), zygote intra-fallopian transfer (ZIFT), pre-embryo cryopreservation and a
variety of micro-manipulative procedures to assist fertilization, such as intracytoplasmic

| The
reproductive endocrinologists at the Jones Institute for
Reproductive Medicine are performing a new procedure,
robotic myomectomy, which surgically removes fibroid
tumors while allowing women to maintain their fertility.
Because this procedure is performed laparoscopically, it
requires small skin incisions, it is done on an
outpatient basis and it is a less invasive surgical
procedure. More than 180,000 women annually make a
decision to undergo a surgical hysterectomy in order to
obtain relief from uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids
are the most frequent pelvic tumors seen by
gynecologists.
