As one of the few reproductive endocrinologists in the nation who has trained in embryology, Dr. Hong finds this experience is crucial to improving patient care and dedicates a portion of her time to the embryology laboratory.
“Not many people realize that providing the best possible outcome depends on ensuring that the embryo is properly cared for each step of the way. Each talented team member, from our embryologists, research coordinators, and patient services team to our financial counselors and nurses, contribute to making RMA one of the best places in the world to come to for reproductive care” she stated.
Having grown up in Bridgewater, New Jersey, Dr. Hong is excited and thankful to be able to give back to her home community. Treating the patient as a whole is her patient care philosophy. She strives to provide innovative medical care and does so with a caring and compassionate manner.
“It is a pleasure and honor to be trusted with the care of a couple at this significant time in their lives. The fertility journey that many couples experience can be all-consuming. Something that appears so easy for some can be very challenging for others. I am here to provide the medical support they need to succeed” she stated.
Not only do Dr. Hong and her team stay up-to-date on the latest fertility techniques, they consistently contribute to the development of new and revolutionary approaches to reproductive care. Her methods help patients who had previous difficulty conceiving, even with help from their physician. She has led several large research studies and contributed to publications in top peer-reviewed fertility journals, including Fertility and Sterility and Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics. Her research interests include embryo culture in the IVF laboratory, comprehensive chromosome screening (CCS), endometrial synchrony, and heritable genetic disorders.

Reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) is a surgical subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology that trains physicians in reproductive medicine addressing hormonal functioning as it pertains to the reproduction, as well as the issue of infertility. While most REI specialists primarily focus on the treatment of infertility, reproductive endocrinologists are trained to also evaluate and treat hormonal dysfunctions in females and males outside after the reproductive years.
In her spare time, Dr. Hong enjoys catching up on reading and spending time with her family. She speaks English, Chinese, and Spanish.
