About
Most reproductive endocrinologists stop at the fellowship. Dr. Ann Korkidakis went back to school. After completing REI fellowships at the University of British Columbia and at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center/Harvard Medical School — yes, both — she earned a Master in Public Health at Johns Hopkins to study something a clinic visit can’t fix: who gets shut out of fertility care, and why.
That question shapes her publication record. Her work identifying the fertility needs of adolescents and young adults with cancer won the Fertility Preservation Prize Paper at the ASRM annual meeting in 2022, and a 2024 Fertility and Sterility study she co-authored tied state insurance mandates to racial and ethnic inequities in ART utilization. Her current research spans early embryo development, optimizing management of recurrent pregnancy loss (including an analysis of chromosomal errors in 1,107 miscarriages), and ongoing barriers to fertility care.
Born and raised in a large Greek family in Montreal, Korkidakis is fluent in French and Greek alongside English. She graduated with honors from McGill University (Anatomy and Cell Biology) before her MD at the same school and OB/GYN residency at Queen’s University. She sees patients at Boston IVF’s Brookline and Worcester centers, with telehealth across Massachusetts, and is an active candidate for the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Clinical Expertise
- Fertility Preservation for Cancer Patients: Egg, embryo and tissue banking coordinated around gonadotoxic treatment timelines; a Canadian fertility-preservation guideline lists her as co-author
- Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: Chromosomal analysis of pregnancy tissue and evidence-based management, a core research focus
- IVF and ICSI: Cycle care informed by her own publications on embryo quality, AMH, and time-lapse imaging
- PGT-A Counseling: Grounded in her work on embryonic chromosomal errors
- Planned Oocyte Cryopreservation: Outcomes data from over a decade of elective egg freezing
Why Choose Dr. Korkidakis
An award-winning researcher in the chair opposite you. Her prize paper on young cancer patients’ fertility needs is the kind of work that changes referral patterns — and she brings it into clinic.
Two fellowship programs, two countries. Training in Vancouver and Boston gives her a comparative view of how ART is practiced on both sides of the border.
Care in your language. Fluent French and Greek for patients who think in neither English.
She publishes on the procedures she performs. From frozen versus fresh transfer outcomes to endometrial compaction and live birth, her first-author papers track directly to treatment decisions.
