Chicago IVF proudly recognizes Dr. Natalie Schultz during Women in Medicine Month, celebrating her contributions to reproductive medicine and women's growing presence in the medical profession. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, women now make up 54.6% of U.S. medical school students (2023-2024), representing a significant milestone for women in medicine.
Dr. Schultz has been an integral part of the Chicago IVF team since 2018. She is known for her dedication to her patients and her commitment to treating the whole person—not just the diagnosis. Her approach combines clinical expertise with compassion, patient education, and a focus on each patient’s emotional well-being and overall health.
Among Dr. Schultz’s many accomplishments:
• She has an extensive academic and clinical background, with training and appointments at Harvard Medical School, the University of Texas, and the University of Illinois College of Medicine.
• Her healthcare career began with an undergraduate degree in occupational therapy before she pursued medicine.
• She has extensive expertise in treating polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), now polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) and has achieved excellent outcomes for patients facing this complex condition.
• Throughout her career, she has embraced a holistic approach to fertility care, focusing on underlying causes of infertility rather than treating symptoms alone.
• She places a strong emphasis on patient education, including nutrition, exercise, and strategies to help reduce inflammation through appropriate supplements, vitamins, and medications.
