Dr. Samantha Butts, MD MSCE, received her medical degree from Harvard Medical School and has been in practice for more than 20 years. She is the current Chief of the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at Penn State Health and Penn State College of Medicine. In this role, she specializes in treating individuals and couples who require fertility treatments in order to achieve pregnancy.
Dr. Butts has extensive experience providing the full spectrum of infertility treatment services to meet the needs of those seeking care who are single, coupled, LGBTQ, and those whose complex medical histories impact their reproductive health.
