About Dr. Bendikson

Dr. Bendikson is the Medical Director, Reproductive Endocrinologist and Infertility Specialist at Pinnacle Fertility Los Angeles. She was named a co-chair of Pinnacle Fertility's Medical Leadership Board. She completed medical school at New York University, her OB/GYN residency at Harvard Medical School and her fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Cornell University.

She spent more than a decade at USC Fertility, where she directed the fellowship program that trains fertility specialists and founded the Center for Pregnancy Loss and the Fertility Diagnostics Program. She later served as national Chief Medical Officer for Clinical Development at Kindbody. She cares for patients with fertility evaluation and treatment, recurrent pregnancy loss, endometriosis, PCOS, egg freezing and fertility preservation.
