Meet Vickie!

Meet Vickie, FINA’s newest team member! She handles a lot of our administration, including scheduling appointments, coordinating referrals, and helping new patients get ready for their first consultation with Dr. D. We absolutely love her bright smile around the office.
Some fun facts about Vickie are that she loves to run, she’s from Kentucky, and she loves to paint. And she loves her puppy, Roxi. πŸΎπŸŽ¨πŸ–Œ
Next time you’re at FINA, make sure you say hello to Vickie!

A patient’s FINA story…πŸ’•

Cancer and Cryopreservation

Cancer and Cryopreservation…
Why should a woman or a man with cancer consider this?
A woman is born with all of the eggs that she will ever have, averaging 300,000 remaining eggs when she starts puberty. Certain types of chemotherapy and/or radiation localized to the pelvic region can kill or damage some or all of the eggs in the ovary. Therefore, it is often prudent to cryopreserve (freeze) eggs or embryos prior to undergoing these potentially harmful therapies in order to preserve a woman’s future ability to conceive and become pregnant.
A male produces sperm in his testes on a continual basis. Once produced, the sperm goes through 2-3 months of transport where it gains maturity and functionality. Certain types of chemotherapy and/or radiation localized to the pelvic region can damage the ability of the testes to produce and/or transport healthy sperm. Therefore, it is often prudent to cryopreserve (freeze) sperm prior to undergoing these potentially harmful therapies in order to preserve one’s future ability to conceive.
Since time is often of the essence with our oncology patients, these are top priority on FINA’s schedule. FINA works closely with your oncology team to consult with every patient desiring a consultation within 1-3 days of initial request.
You can schedule your initial consultation to discuss your current cancer treatment plan and the options available to you by calling us at 256-217-9613 or by visiting our website. ❀

Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month

October is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month. This is a time when we can show support to the many families who have suffered such a tragic loss.

While child loss may be a more common occurrence than people think, there are still far too many families that face the devastating moments alone, desperate for support before, during or after the loss of a baby.

To all the families who have experienced this loss, we are so sorry. You are loved and supported, and your baby will never be forgotten.❀️
