Texas Children’s Family Fertility Center has opened a clinic in The Woodlands bringing care closer to home for women and men north of Houston.

The clinic is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and is located at 17350 St. Luke’s Way, Suite 300, which is near Texas Children’s Hospital The Woodlands in the MAC2 Building at CHI St. Luke’s.

Dr. Paul Zarutskie and his staff are leading the clinic. Zarutski is a long-standing member of Texas Children’s Family Fertility team and also is an assistant professor with Baylor College of Medicine. Throughout his 30-year career he has treated more than 15,000 patients and has consistently been named one of the Best Doctors in America.

A pioneer in reproductive endocrinology, Zarutskie has developed innovative treatment protocols, drugs, devices and laboratory procedures, including intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and cryopreservation techniques. He was one of the first infertility specialists in the United States to introduce preimplantation genetic screening services into clinical practice, and Zarutskie’s early research in male fertility established him as a thought leader in the field and continues to guide treatment strategies.

“We are extremely excited about being able to serve women in The Woodlands area closer to home,” said Jennifer Dalton, the clinic’s manager. “One of our main goals here at Texas Children’s is patient access and providing that access closer to home.”
