General Info

Dr. Catenacci was born and raised outside of Detroit, Michigan. She went to medical school at Wayne State University in Detroit and then moved to Ohio for post-graduate training. Her residency training in obstetrics and gynecology was done at MetroHealth Medical Center/Cleveland Clinic Foundation in Cleveland, Ohio. She then stayed at the Cleveland Clinic to complete a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. She is board-certified in both Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, and in Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Catenacci has had extensive training in the most up-to-date minimally invasive surgical techniques with experience in operative hysteroscopy for treatment of fibroids, uterine septums, and uterine adhesions. She is experienced with both traditional laparoscopy and robotic surgery in the treatment of uterine fibroids. "I was fortunate to train with some of the leaders in reproductive surgery," says Dr. Catenacci. "Having such a strong surgical background is becoming more unusual in our field. I find it rewarding to be able to tackle challenging cases in the operating room." In addition to laparoscopic surgery, Dr. Catenacci has had significant experience in tubal reanastamosis. "I understand that IVF may not be for all patients and I feel that this is an important service to offer our patients." Philosophy about infertility treatment: I find treating patients with infertility extremely rewarding. I understand the difficulties of infertility and work to support my patients throughout this difficult journey. Being able to help my patients achieve a healthy pregnancy is the best part of my job and what drew me to the field of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility.
