Wildermuth Center

Infertility is a medical condition that affects 15-20% of married couples in the United States. Far from being a medical condition alone, the inability to become pregnant has a profound influence on a couple's emotional, psychological, and even physical well being. Infertility can cause undue stress on a marriage, many times resulting in spouses growing further apart rather than growing closer together.

Through a generous grant from the Wildermuth Memorial Foundation, the Specialty Center for Women at Sisters Hospital was able to establish The Wildermuth Reproductive Treatment Center. The Center's main focus is to provide support and services to those couples who want to maximize their fertility without resorting to artificial reproductive technologies.

Only diagnostic and treatment techniques that are in accordance with the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care will be performed at the Center. The Center will reply on Natural Family Planning as an important adjunct to maximizing the couple's fertility.

Services Offered:

  • Consultation: Including a review of the couple's history and complete female physical, if indicated.
  • Diagnostic Evaluation: Including: Hormonal studies, Hysterosalpingography, Ultrasound follicle series, Semen analysis, and Laparascopy.
  • Treatment: Individualized treatment plans based on the underlying condition causing infertility, including:
    • Ovulation induction.
    • Microsconservative surgery for endometriosis and adhesions.
    • Tubal ligation reversal.
    • Hysteroscopic cannulation of the fallopian tubes.
    • Hysteroscopic removal of uterine septum and scar tissue.
    • Myomectomy.
    • Enhancement of cervical mucus.
  • Education: Utilizing Natural Family Planning, the couple will learn the natural signs of fertility awareness to help in diagnosis and treatment.
  • Support Services: A Couples Support Group and spiritual counseling is offered to help the couple cope with infertility.
  • Research: The Center will undertake clinical studies to enhance the knowledge of reproductive medicine.
  • Financial Assistance: A limited amount of funds will be available to those couples unable to afford certain diagnostic or treatment options.

Facilities:

A woman's closest partner in health care is her primary care physician - the family practitioner, internist, or obstetrician/gynecologist who works with her to keep her healthy and treat illnesses as needed. When care is called for, a team of specialists and other professionals are available at the Specialty Center for Women, located in Sisters Hospital. Services at the Center include breast care, endocrinology, natural family planning, fertility treatment, perinatal medicine, obstetric medicine, urogynecology, post-reproductive gynecology, and gynecological oncology.
