I have published a letter in Fertility and Sterility reports about a failed GnRh agonist trigger, and how we recovered from that unexpected negative outcome.

The question is not if we make mistakes, in reproductive medicine we have so many variables to account for and adjust that sub optimal scenarios are inevitable.The true question is how do we identify our own cognitive biases in order to reduce subjective interpretation, and what does it take to recover from these situations. Clinical expertise comes with seniority, but making the right choice in the face of a poor outcome also requires considerable psychological work with intellectual humility and professional security.

Metacognition is the science of thinking about how we think. It is a very important exercise to reflect on our mistakes and understand how our brains can trick us to make the wrong decisions, and how our experience and intuition can help correct the situation

On Sunday the 17th of May 2026, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.

Support Lionel Reyftmann's fundraising campaign. They've raised $7.49 so far!

I have started my robotic practice last year and I am still trying to understand where the robot can really enhance the hands of the surgeon. Fine suturing of the fallopian tubes is good example.
This surgical video describes a case where a woman had pelvic adhesions of the uterus and a bilateral blockage of the tubes. The robot is very helpful to repair and stitch the tubes as the sutures are very thin.
