Get to know Reproductive Endocrinologist and Infertility Specialist Dr. Dana R. Ambler, who serves patients in Englewood, Colorado.

Dr. Ambler is a trusted, fellowship-trained obstetrician-gynecologist & a compassionate, highly trained reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist. She sees patients at Denver Fertility in Englewood, Colorado, working alongside Dr. Bruce Albrecht.

Highly skilled in the latest fertility techniques and third-party reproduction, her interests include in vitro fertilization, comprehensive chromosomal testing of embryos, fertility preservation for oncology patients, congenital utero-vaginal tract anomalies, male infertility, and reproductive surgery. Her approach to fertility medicine treatment is a holistic, individualized, and tailored approach for each patient. “I center my practice around the mind, body, and soul. Emotional, fertility, and medical aspects are all fulfilled here.” 

Seeing her ability to relate to patients as her strength, Dr. Ambler empathetically states: “helping patients begin a family is indescribable. As their doctor, being a part of creating a family is extremely special; you really have an emotional connection with the couple that is unique from other medical specialties.” She is committed to providing only the best possible care to couples in a compassionate and candid approach, noting that her professional standard is to treat every patient like family.

Early on in Dr. Ambler’s education, she was inspired to become a fertility doctor by a fertility physician mentor, while she earned her undergraduate degree from Ursinus College. She went on to receive her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Wayne State University, part of the prestigious Detroit Medical Center. She earned her postgraduate fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Geisinger Medical Center. In addition, she holds a Master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences and Cellular Pathology from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

Professionally, Dr. Ambler has made numerous presentations at conferences across the country and has written multiple publications on postoperative adhesion development, endometriosis, ectopic pregnancies, and uterine anomalies. Among her extensive research topics, her fellowship focused on genetics, utilizing microarray technology, to characterize postoperative adhesion development. This research has awarded her several honors, including nominee for the prize paper, at the American Society of Reproductive Medicine.

Meeting each woman’s expectations and needs, she is board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology & reproductive endocrinology and infertility by the American Board of Osteopathic Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOOG). The mission of the ABOOG is to define standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.

With an extensive list of academic accomplishments, Dr. Ambler has worked with some of the best reproductive physicians in the country and brings with her a wealth of knowledge. In direct affiliation with her industry, she is a member of the American College of Osteopathic Obstetricians & Gynecologists (Fellow), the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, and the American Osteopathic Association.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics and gynecology. An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health. 

Reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) is a surgical subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology that trains physicians in reproductive medicine addressing hormonal functioning as it pertains to the reproduction, as well as the issue of infertility. While most REI specialists primarily focus on the treatment of infertility, reproductive endocrinologists are trained to also evaluate and treat hormonal dysfunctions in females and males after the reproductive years.

Named a Top Doctor 2020 by The Global Directory of Who’s Who, Dr. Ambler’s service to fertility patients has proudly earned her Vitals.com “Patient’s Choice Award,” and Vitals.com “Compassionate Doctor Recognition” Award.
