With more than 20 years’ experience as a fertility specialist, Dr Jeffrey Persson believes genetics and endocrinology are the cornerstones of fertility treatment. He is also one of the few reproductive endocrinologists in Australia who can help men with azoospermia (zero sperm count), using the most sophisticated microscopic sperm extraction procedures. Jeffrey is also a leading expert in vasectomy reversal.
Dr Persson is focussed on attention to detail and applying his specialist expertise to develop the best approach to treatment. With research interests in genetics and male infertility, Jeffrey trained and worked in Amsterdam before obtaining his MD. In 1995, he received his Fellowship of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, and his Certificate in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (CREI) with his thesis, ‘Genetic aspects of reproductive failure’.
He lectures at Sydney University, is actively involved in clinical research, and has published on the genetic aspects of infertility.
