About
Two separate fellowship trainings in reproductive endocrinology and infertility - one at Wayne State University, one at Emory University - sit on top of Dr. Aida Shanti’s obstetrics and gynecology residency at Case Western Reserve University. That is the shape of her credential record: certified by the American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology in both the primary specialty and the subspecialty, practicing reproductive endocrinology at Aurora Fertility Services in West Allis, Wisconsin, as an employee of Aurora Health Care.
Her postgraduate path began outside the United States: an MD from Jordan University School of Medicine in 1982 and a rotating internship at Jordan University Hospital, followed by internal medicine and obstetrics-gynecology internships at Tulane University and a public health degree from Tulane’s School of Public Health. In clinic she works in English, Arabic and French.
One correction worth making explicitly. A medical-director title has appeared against her name in some earlier listings of this practice, and our sources do not support it: the 2023 SART clinic report for Aurora Fertility Services - West Allis names a different physician as Medical Director, and no administrative title of that kind appears in her captured profile. What the record does support is a long run of third-party directory listings, dated 2015 through 2026.
Clinical Expertise
- IVF: ovarian stimulation, monitoring, retrieval and transfer, managed within a clinic whose embryo transfers are reported as frozen rather than fresh
- ICSI: intracytoplasmic sperm injection for the male-factor component of an IVF case
- PGT-A: preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy, and the counseling that comes with deciding whether to test
- Endometriosis-associated infertility: evaluation and treatment planning for patients whose fertility is affected by endometriosis
- Egg freezing and fertility preservation: oocyte cryopreservation, both for planned delay of parenthood and before a treatment that threatens fertility
- Female infertility evaluation: diagnostic workup as the entry point to the above
- Out of the recorded scope: recurrent pregnancy loss does not appear in her documented specialty list, so if that is your reason for seeking a specialist, ask the clinic directly which physician covers it
Why Choose Dr. Aida Shanti
Certified twice over. ABOG certification in Obstetrics & Gynecology plus ABOG certification in Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility, with two REI fellowship programs behind the subspecialty. This is the verifiable part of the record.
Care in your language, not through an interpreter. English, Arabic and French consultation. For a patient whose medical history is complicated, the difference between describing symptoms in a second language and describing them in one’s own is real, and language assistance in other languages, including Simplified Chinese, is available through the health system at no charge.
A rating that is not uniformly flattering, and reviews that explain it. Her Aurora profile shows 3.9 out of 5 from 124 ratings with 36 written patient reviews. The two reviews captured in our dossier run in opposite directions: a 5.0 rating credits her knowledge and clear next steps for a couple struggling to understand their situation; a 1.0 rating calls her cold and stern while rating the staff as great. If you want a physician who spends time warming to you, take that second account seriously. If you want direct information and a defined plan, that is what the first one describes.
Hospital affiliation inside the system treating you. Her profile lists Aurora West Allis Medical Center, so hospital-level care, if a cycle ever needs it, has a defined affiliation inside the same system.

Suitable For
- IVF and ICSI patients: those whose workup has led to assisted reproduction at a clinic with published SART outcomes
- Endometriosis-related infertility: patients needing fertility planning where endometriosis is the complicating factor
- PGT-A decisions: patients weighing embryo genetic testing before transfer, including how testing interacts with a clinic whose reported transfers are all frozen
- Egg freezing and preservation: planned delay of childbearing, or fertility risk from another treatment
- Arabic- or French-speaking patients: consultation without interpretation
- Not the right fit if you want a physician who leads with reassurance rather than instruction - one captured patient review describes her style exactly that way
