While a resident at the Tufts University School of Medicine, the medical students selected him for the Humanism and Excellence in Teaching Award from the Arnold P. Gold Foundation.
A Los Angeles native, Dr. Berger returned home to UCLA after his undergraduate studies at The Johns Hopkins University. He completed his PhD in Physiological Science and his MD degrees concurrently, and in his spare time, trained the athletic teams as the Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach. Dr. Berger completed his fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
Dr. Berger’s areas of expertise include Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS); reproductive surgery; fertility preservation; diet, obesity, and exercise in fertility; and competitive athletes and infertility.
