Early on in Dr. Ambler’s education, she was inspired to become a fertility doctor by a fertility physician mentor, while she earned her undergraduate degree from Ursinus College. She went on to receive her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Wayne State University, part of the prestigious Detroit Medical Center. She earned her postgraduate fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Geisinger Medical Center.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics and gynecology. An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health. 

Reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) is a surgical subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology that trains physicians in reproductive medicine addressing hormonal functioning as it pertains to the reproduction, as well as the issue of infertility. While most REI specialists primarily focus on the treatment of infertility, reproductive endocrinologists are trained to also evaluate and treat hormonal dysfunctions in females and males after the reproductive years.

Named a Top Doctor 2020 by The Global Directory of Who’s Who, Dr. Ambler’s service to fertility patients has proudly earned her Vitals.com “Patient’s Choice Award,” and Vitals.com “Compassionate Doctor Recognition” Award.
