Delaware Institute for Reproductive Medicine is truly a place where “dreams, through science, become reality.” If you are concerned with your fertility, or are in a place where fertility treatments may be an open conversation, the Delaware Institute for Reproductive Medicine (DIRM) is where you want to visit. Their services range from simple reassurance to the most advanced treatment options available, and they cater every fertility plan to the couple’s needs, wants, and expectations.

With both a laboratory team and a clinical team, you will be supported on every front. The journey of infertility can be lonely and quite isolating, and having such a welcoming and positive group of knowledgeable medical individuals by your side can help lower anxiety and boost confidence. Dr. Russell and his entire staff have the ability to turn a medical environment into a comforting and warm experience. Early on, you will feel as though they all transition from your doctors to your friends, and many clients view them as extended family.

“Thanks to Dr. Russell and his team of amazing Angel's, my husband and I are on our way to having a family. They have been so patient, and most of all supportive, we are not sure how we can truly ever show how thankful we really are!” Jenny Craine #IVFwarrior

The bedside manner is exquisite at DIRM and every employee genuinely cares for their patients. It can be a challenge, knowing that every potential mother who makes an appointment has the same dream of becoming pregnant - and that the dream becoming a reality is only possible with the right plan in place. It is a lot of pressure, but time and time again, Dr. Russell and his team work together to create these plans.

“At the end of my first meeting with Dr. Russell he stated, “Don’t worry, I will make this happen for you.” After testing and finding out some things, he had a plan. I’m happy to say that after working closely with him and his team, I was pregnant in August of 2014. I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl and they were with me from the beginning to the end. I’m also happy to say 4 years later I have two beautiful, healthy girls, all thanks to him.” Malorie Tartal

As families find out they are expecting a baby, hearing that heartbeat (or multiple heartbeats) is a moment that brings tears to everyone’s eyes. The emotional rollercoasters that take place within DIRM can include high highs and low lows, so that sweet sound is the prefect sound track to any day at the office. As a wholesaler of My Baby’s Heartbeat Bear, Dr. Russell and his team love having the ability of sending parents home from ultrasounds with a Heartbeat Animal. That ability to touch, hold, and squeeze something that contains the most precious moment - the moment they heard their child and knew dreams were becoming a reality, that ability is priceless.
