LANA SCHLOTTHAUER, RNC-REIN

Lana is a beloved nurse at Southwest Fertility, serving patients for over 30 years. She is certified in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Nursing. As the IVF nurse coordinator, Lana guides and counsels patients with a caring and sensitive approach. She discusses treatment plans while explaining each step in great detail while also making herself accessible to answer questions through the often very stressful process.

Lana received ultrasound training from Gateway Community College in 1991 and holds an associate degree in nursing from Mesa Community College. She is also a member of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine.

Lana feels a special connection to the breast cancer community as she is a breast cancer survivor herself. Her support, understanding and heartfelt care for patients who are unexpectedly faced with a decision to preserve their fertility due to a cancer diagnosis is genuine.

Lana is a connoisseur of fine wine, has a contagious laugh, and especially loves to spend time with her daughter, grandsons, and twin sister. Lana’s guilty pleasures are the Hallmark Channel, makeup, and the occasional pedicure.
