Nicole Banks, MD ’07, has joined Shady Grove Fertility at the practice’s SGF Jones Institute location in Norfolk, Va.

Banks is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology, reproductive endocrinology, and clinical genetics. After graduating from Harvard University magna cum laude, she earned her medical degree from the University of Virginia School of Medicine and then pursued her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Georgetown University where she was the recipient of the Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Resident Award.

Banks continued her studies with a research-intensive fellowship in genetics at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). During this time, she earned the 2013 ASRM Corporate Member Council In-training Travel Award, where she ultimately contributed to four ASRM presentations on topics including intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), structural abnormalities of the Y chromosome, and gene mutations. Banks then completed a second fellowship at NIH in reproductive endocrinology.
