Marla Carruthers, RN

Fertility Nurse Coordinator

 

Background

I grew up in the Capital District, but left for nearly a decade.  The early part of that time was spent as a traveling nurse, and the remainder in Boston.  I have now been living back in the area and working at Albany IVF for almost 2 years, and can’t imagine being happier anyplace else.  The rewarding and challenging nature of the work itself coupled with the exceptional team here creates a satisfying professional, as well as personal, experience.  I have worked in oncology and family medicine, but the majority of my career has been focused on women’s health.  Initially as a medical assistant during nursing school, continuing through many of my 12 years as a nurse, now leading me to this opportunity to care for women and their partners as they hope to build their families.
