About

About Tennessee Reproductive Medicine

Tennessee Reproductive Medicine (TRM) is a full-service reproductive endocrinology and infertility clinic located in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Founded in 2008 by Dr. Rink Murray and Dr. Jessica Scotchie, both double board-certified in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (REI) and Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN), TRM is committed to providing the highest quality fertility care to patients in Chattanooga and the Southeastern United States.

TRM emphasizes a personalized approach to patient care — physicians are present at every clinical visit and perform their own sonograms, ensuring patients receive immediate results and dedicated one-on-one time.

In October 2025 the clinic marked 17 years of helping build families, which is the only duration figure our sources attach to TRM itself; our capture records no patient or cycle count for the practice, so we do not quote one.

Patient Journey

Care at TRM begins with an initial consultation, booked through the clinic’s main phone line. The practice operates monitoring centers in Knoxville, Tennessee and Rome, Georgia, so patients who are not based in Chattanooga can complete part of a treatment cycle closer to home. Telehealth is listed among the clinic’s access options, and a free financial counseling appointment is offered alongside clinical intake.

Beyond those documented touchpoints, our sources for this clinic document no step-by-step treatment pathway — ovarian stimulation protocols, monitoring frequency, retrieval and transfer logistics, and post-transfer follow-up timing are not described in the material we collected, and the clinic’s contact and scheduling pages were not captured during research. Those steps are left out here rather than filled with a generic IVF timeline.

Assisted reproduction law in the United States is set mainly at the state level, and Tennessee’s rules are not those of neighboring states. Our sources for this clinic document no Tennessee statute-specific guidance on egg donation, surrogacy, embryo disposition, or preimplantation genetic testing — the material collected for this page includes no statute or case citations. Confirm current requirements with the clinic and with a family-law attorney before starting treatment.

I wouldn't be a mother without this practice and the surgical interference of Dr. Scotchie. I had been told I needed a hysterectomy due to insane fibroids and found my way to this office through looking for other options. I never felt truly listened to until my consult. I had 46 fibroids removed in an open myomectomy, and I am over the moon excited to say I just had a baby last week. This would not have been possible without the care and experience I received here. Thank you for not giving up on a difficult case! It literally changed the trajectory of my life.

Incredibly disappointing. My husband and I came to TRM after years of "unexplained infertility" and a miscarriage, looking for answers - to figure out the root cause of our fertility issues. Unfortunately, that was not TRM's goal. Dr.…...

I cannot thank Tennessee Reproductive Medicine enough for helping make my dream of becoming a mom come true. Dr. Scotchie performed a truly life-changing surgery that gave me the chance to conceive — something I will be forever grateful for. Her skill, compassion, and dedication changed my life in the best way possible. I also want to give special thanks to Physician Shelby Wright, who was so kind, understanding, and patient through every step of my journey. She listened to every concern and always made me feel supported and cared for. And I can’t forget to mention the amazing nurses, who went above and beyond to make every visit comfortable and encouraging. Their warmth and kindness made such a difference during an emotional process. Because of this incredible team, I am now 12 weeks pregnant with a baby boy! Words can’t express how thankful I am for their care, expertise, and compassion. They helped bring hope and joy back into my life. 💙

After a long journey with infertility, we are so excited to be pregnant—thanks to the incredible team at Tennessee Reproductive Medicine. Dr. Murray and Dr. Scotchie were not only experts in their field, but also incredibly compassionate and patient. They took the time to explain every option, answer every question, and guide us through each step of the IVF process with empathy and care. IVF can be an overwhelming experience, but the entire team at TRM—from the front desk staff to the nurses and lab techs—made it feel manageable and hopeful. We will forever be grateful to Tennessee Reproductive Medicine for helping make our dream of parenthood a reality. If you’re navigating infertility, we can’t recommend TRM highly enough—they are truly exceptional.

When i started going to TRM in 2022 i was completely comfortable, i felt heard & validated. I did not feel like a money sign & i felt as if they cared about me as a patient. I was seeing Dr Vukmer at the time and when i tell you she was a literal ANGEL SENT FROM HEAVEN .. We did a couple of surgery’s & always had a game plan of what was next .. i NEVER had communication problems with her . In 2024 - two years later im still going to this clinic and i request an appointment & only when i requested an appointment did they inform me that dr vukmer had left the practice. I’m sorry but ??? Don’t you think you should let her patients know that ASAP.. so they aren’t completely blindsided.. anyway moving on. I was told i could pick one of the other doctors to take over my treatment plan - i chose dr scotchie because the one time i had to see dr murray … let’s just say he has the personality of a dried out sponge . When my husband and i met with dr scotchie for the first time she made us both feel as if we were complete idiots & wasting her time by even having a consult appointment. The front office staff are rude as can be (aside from one lady) . The people who work in the lab were always so kind .. This clinic sees a money sign when you walk through the door . When you’re going through one of the hardest trials in your life it helps to have a little sympathy.. & it also helps to feel like people are there to help you and not just make a paycheck. TRM , on behalf of people in the trying to conceive community.. do better. so sad.
