Dr. Van Heertum says, “When I found Nashville Fertility Center, I was impressed by the team. All the partners are knowledgeable and kind. I realized this was where I wanted to practice reproductive medicine.”
Kristin Van Heertum, MD, is committed to compassionate, individualized care. “I see each patient as a unique person, not a fertility diagnosis. I create fertility treatment plans that address each patient’s physical, emotional, and financial needs. It is important to me that patients feel involved in their treatment plans rather than passive participants.”
