Melinda Henne, M.D.
Melinda Henne, M.D., M.S., F.A.C.O.G., joined IVF FLORIDA in 2023. Board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology, as well as Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, she brings with her a wealth of experience from private practice, academic institutions, and military settings. Dr. Henne is now seeing patients at Florida Reproductive Specialists by IVF Florida in Jacksonville.
Dr. Henne always knew medicine was her calling and became excited about caring for women with fertility struggles in high school as she watched her older brother and his wife struggle to conceive. She completed her undergraduate education at Georgetown University with a degree in Government Studies before joining the military to complete her medical education at the Medical University of South Carolina.
Dr. Henne completed her Obstetrics and Gynecology residency in the military and practiced general Obstetrics & Gynecology in the military before ultimately completing her Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility Fellowship at Stanford University.
While at Stanford, she obtained a master’s degree in health services research. She then served in the Air Force and gained experience as the Director of the Infertility Program at Walter Reed Military Medical Center. She was on faculty for the Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility and Minimally Invasive Surgery fellowships at the National Institute of Health and Uniformed Services University for Health Services.
After retiring from the Air Force as a Colonel, she became an Associate Professor at the University of South Florida before she moved to private practice. Although she loves all aspects of Reproductive Endocrinology, she is most passionate about reproductive options for single women and the LGBTQ+ community. She enjoys reproductive surgery, and her favorite procedure is tubal reversals.
Dr. Henne enjoys learning and is currently pursuing her MBA. When she is not working or studying, she is doting on her three adorable “furkids,” searching for the best vegan restaurant or practicing yoga. She also likes hiking, and Mt. Kilimanjaro is on her bucket list.
