Dr. Daniel A. Potter, MD, FACOG, is a Reproductive Endocrinologist at Huntington Reproductive Center in Laguna Hills, California. HRC offers gender selection with MicroSort and PGD, and is a world-renowned infertility research center.
This is a pilot study that we are starting. It may provide the opportunity for couples to access IVF with minimal expense. Study Title: Creation of differentiated, patient-specific stem cell lines through somatic cell nuclear transfer Institutional review board: University of California, Irvine Study locations: Fullerton and Laguna Hills 12 patient pilot study Patients must be under 30 with normal ovarian reserve Patients receive free complete IVF cycle including ICSI and some medications Summary: HRC is proud to collaborate with Hans Kierstead, PhD on pioneering pilot study. The study may be expanded after the initial 12 patients have been enrolled. Dr. Keirstead is associate professor at the University of California, Irvine where he co-directs the Bill and Susan Gross Stem Cell Research Center. In this study, patients receive IVF treatment at no charge along with some of the medicine needed for the treatment. The couple will get the first 8 mature eggs. The remainder of the eggs will undergo somatic-cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) from fibroblasts harvested by HRC from spinal cord injured volunteers. The goal is to create patient-specific, differentiated stem cell lines. Contact: Bonnie, 949-472-9446 or cynthiaa@havingbabies.com
About Dr. Potter
Hi and thank you for your interest. I am Dr. Daniel Potter. I am a board certified in both Reproductive Endocrinology/Infertility and Obstetrics and Gynecology. I am currently the Medical Director and a principal at the Huntington Reproductive Center (HRC). HRC is one the larger fertility programs in the USA and has 6 offices in southern California.

The MicroSort West facility is located at my Laguna Hills office and is one of only two MicroSort facilities in the world. My third and final job is Laboratory Director of the Gene Security Network (www.genesecurity.net), a company looking to revolutionize PGD. As some of you know, I have written a book for infertile couples. Here is the link if anyone would like to see it:
; One of my passions in life is to help couples achieve the dream of parenthood that they have, including those that dream of a balanced family. Gender selection through fresh MicroSort and/or PGD has always played a huge role in my practice. It would be my pleasure to be your personal physician for this issue. To obtain a rapid appointment, please contact Cindy Anderson directly (cynthiaa@havingbabies.com) and state that you are from in-gender. Outside of medicine and science, live with my wife and two daughters (born through IVF) in Laguna Beach, California. I am currently trying to improve at beach volleyball, tennis and surfing. I enjoy coaching my girls teams, music, traveling and wine.
