Jamie Massie, MD, FACOG

About

Jamie Massie spent fourteen years in the United States Air Force before joining Pacific Northwest Fertility in 2022, and she came out of that service with an unusual teaching record: she trained medical students, OB/GYN residents and reproductive endocrinology fellows at San Antonio Military Medical Center and Madigan Army Medical Center, two of the largest academic centers in the military health system, and picked up ACOG’s National Faculty Award and the Armed Forces District’s Junior Fellow Professor of the Year along the way.

Her clinical training was all Stanford — residency in obstetrics and gynecology and then fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at the same institution, where she built advanced expertise in fertility evaluation, in vitro fertilization and collaborative reproduction. She earned her medical degree at the University of Maryland, College Park, and collected surgical honors during training: the Wayne W. Babcock Award for Excellence in Surgery, the Louis Harriman Douglass Award for Excellence in Obstetrics and Gynecology, and designation as an AAGL Honorary Resident for Special Excellence in Endoscopy.

At PNWF she directs the Center for Excellence in Collaborative Reproduction, the clinic’s program for patients using donor eggs, donor sperm or a gestational carrier. She is also co-founder and chief medical officer of My Fertility Health, Inc., the company behind navie, a reproductive health app she built to put cycle and fertility information in the patient’s own hands. Seattle Met has named her a Top Doctor since her arrival, and she is one of the few physicians in this field who speaks from experience about the fertility obstacles veterans face after service.

Clinical Expertise

• Collaborative (Third-Party) Reproduction: Runs PNWF’s dedicated center — donor egg, donor sperm and gestational carrier cycles, from medical design through coordination
• IVF and Fertility Evaluation: Stanford residency and fellowship; stimulation through retrieval and transfer
• Military and Veteran Fertility Care: Fourteen years inside the military health system, plus her own experience of fertility challenges within it
• Fertility Data and Self-Management: Co-founder and CMO of the reproductive health app navie
• Fertility Preservation: Preservation planning for patients whose treatment window is set by something else

Why Choose Dr. Jamie Massie

She runs the third-party reproduction program, which is an operational job as much as a medical one. Egg donation, sperm donation and surrogacy involve several calendars and several sets of lawyers. A director of a named center at PNWF is responsible for that sequence holding together, not just for writing the stimulation protocol.

Fourteen years of military medicine is a different kind of continuity training. At San Antonio and Madigan she taught residents and fellows while running clinical service, and her awards — ACOG’s National Faculty Award for the CORE curriculum, Brooke Army Medical Center’s Quality Patient Care Award, the Army Achievement Medal — are institutional ones. Patients whose care has to be handed between facilities, insurance systems or duty stations get a physician who has worked inside that problem.

She has been the patient in the system she now works in. Massie has said she understands the fertility challenges veterans face from her own service experience. For a patient arriving with records from the VA, a relocation history or a partner on active duty, that is a practical rather than rhetorical advantage.

She built a tool for patients to run their own data. As co-founder and chief medical officer of My Fertility Health, she developed navie, a comprehensive reproductive health application. The premise is that patients who can see their own numbers participate better in decisions — which tends to show in how she structures a visit.

She teaches for a living and it is documented. Junior Fellow Professor of the Year, National Faculty Award, and resident teaching honors at Stanford. Physicians who teach tend to explain the reasoning behind a protocol rather than only issuing it.
