Dedicated to knowing each patient's needs and expectations, Dr. George M. Grunert believes in seeing each patient at every visit, something that is not found in most infertility practices today. He and his staff believe that this one-on-one relationship is an integral part of his success in helping patients reach their goals. His practice is less contrived and less complicated than many encountered in the infertility field.

Dr. Grunert graduated from Rice University in Houston, received his MD degree from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, and completed post-graduate training in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Naval Regional Medical Center (NRMC) in Oakland, California. He received Fellowship training in Reproductive Endocrinology at NRMC, Oakland, and at the University of California at San Francisco. He returned to Houston in 1981 to begin the private practice of gynecology, infertility and reproductive endocrinology.

In 1986, Dr. Grunert founded the Laboratory for Assisted Reproductive Technology at the Obstetrical and Gynecological Associates and the Woman's Hospital of Texas. Since its inception Dr. Grunert has served as the Medical Director. This remains the oldest ongoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) program in Houston. It was the first program in the Southwest to be certified by the Society of Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART). The Laboratory is constantly involved in research to remain at the top of the field and to be able to offer the latest technology advancements to the patient.

Diagnostic testing and treatment of infertility is performed in a private outpatient clinic at the Obstetrical and Gynecological Associates of Houston. The in-vitro fertilization program is contained within the clinic and all IVF procedures are performed in our outpatient treatment facility, avoiding any visits to the hospital.
