Illume Fertility Physicians selected as Top Doctors in America by Castle Connolly

“Our team continues to approach each patient journey with the highest level of care and dedication.” said Dr. Mark Leondires, Founder, Medical Director and Partner at Illume Fertility.


NORWALK, Conn. (PRWEB)

Illume Fertility (formerly RMA of Connecticut), a leading modern fertility practice whose team of experts help individuals and couples grow their families, has announced that six of their board-certified reproductive endocrinologists have been honored with the prestigious Top Doc award by Castle Connolly. This marks the 30th year that renowned publishing company Castle Connolly has compiled its list of America’s Top Doctors®. Every doctor on the list is nominated by peer doctors in their specific field and assessed by a physician-led research team.

The 2023 Top Doc designation was awarded to:

Mark Leondires, MD

Spencer Richlin, MD

Joshua Hurwitz, MD

Cynthia Murdock, MD

Shaun Williams, MD

Ilana Ressler, MD

Top Docs are rigorously selected from among the total population of 900,000 physicians in practice in the United States and represent the top 7 percent of all U.S. practicing physicians. Castle Connolly’s research methodology is designed to identify doctors who will achieve the best possible health outcomes for their patients. For a reproductive endocrinologist, that translates to successful fertility treatment cycles (IUI and IVF) resulting in pregnancies and babies. All six Illume Fertility physicians are at the top of their field and have the most up-to-date knowledge and skills in the field of Reproductive Endocrinology, the medical specialty dedicated to fertility treatment.

“As we approach our 20th year in practice, we recognize and are grateful for the trust placed in us by the community we serve,” said Dr. Mark Leondires, Founder, Medical Director and Partner at Illume Fertility and Gay Parents To Be®. “Our team continues to approach each patient journey with the highest level of care and dedication, which is reflected in our 76% success rate* and the more than 10,000 babies we’ve helped bring into the world since 2004.”
