Dr. Marta Wais Quality Director
Co-Owner, Markham Fertility
I really want to build a superior fertility clinic. Sometime that means doing things that are not easy and that other clinics can't do. It means going above and beyond for my patients. I really want patients to feel like they received phenomenal care.

More About Dr. Wais
We asked each of our doctors some questions so you can learn about who they are as people, not just scientists and clinicians.
What motivates you?
We can't get everyone pregnant, but making people feel human when they are struggling or celebrating is immensely rewarding. Seeing people in their highs and being with them during their lows is important to me. I simply like being there others.
What is your message to patients who are struggling to create their family?
Do what you can to keep hope alive. Do what you need to do to support yourself through the process, whether that means leaning on me as your physician, or other supports around you. Take it one day at a time. It can be very overwhelming to think about all the steps, the whirlpool of 'what ifs'. I will always keep you centred on the big plan.
What would your patients say about you?
I am their cheerleader. I will literally motivate you. Give you 'high fives' or a hug. I support your choices. I'm the friend you call when you are stuck, excited, or in need of a shoulder.
