About
Sandy Goodman is the Patient Education Director at The Reproductive Medicine Group, a role that mirrors how she practices: she treats helping patients understand their diagnosis and options as part of the care itself. She joined the group in 2000 and is one of its partner physicians, board certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology and in the Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility subspecialty.
Dr. Goodman sees patients at the North Tampa and Wesley Chapel offices. She does not sit at the South Tampa office, which is the location this ProIVF page is built around; to book with her you would choose North Tampa or Wesley Chapel. Her North Tampa base sits alongside the group’s RMG IVF Surgery Center on Fletcher Avenue, where the practice performs egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
Her training path is unusually research-hospital heavy. She earned her undergraduate degree at Washington University in St. Louis, where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and her medical degree at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey’s Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, where she was inducted into Alpha Omega Alpha. She completed her OB/GYN residency at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s and Massachusetts General Hospitals program as Administrative Chief Resident, and her reproductive endocrinology fellowship at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institute. She is the recipient of the Excellence Award for Operative Laparoscopy and Operative Hysteroscopy.
