Board-certified reproductive endocrinologist Wendy B. Shelly, MD provides fertility treatment in Carlsbad through Fertility Specialists Medical Group on Paseo Del Norte near the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. Her IVF practice offers a full range of assisted reproductive technologies including intrauterine insemination, oocyte cryopreservation, and blastocyst transfer, complemented by integrative adjuncts like the fertility-focused acupuncture protocols at Aviara Acupuncture & Integrative Health nearby in the Aviara corridor. She earned her medical degree from Penn State's Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, completed her OB/GYN residency at the University of Virginia, and finished her reproductive endocrinology fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco. As surgical director of the San Diego Center for Reproductive Surgery, she performs minimally invasive laparoscopic and hysteroscopic procedures aimed at improving reproductive outcomes before or alongside IVF cycles. FSMG's Carlsbad office also coordinates hormonal optimization protocols with endocrine-focused practices such as Herway Health + Hormones for patients whose thyroid, adrenal, or metabolic profiles affect fertility outcomes. The on-site embryology laboratory utilizes intracytoplasmic sperm injection, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy, and assisted hatching protocols for day-five and day-six blastocyst transfers.
