Our Fertility Doctors
TRM is led by Dr. Jessica Scotchie and Dr. Rink Murray, both founders are double board certified in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (REI) and Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN), and are members of the Society for Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. Drs. Scotchie and Murray are supported by our new provider Dr. Natalie Vukmer.
Our doctors understand that people struggling to conceive are longing for answers.
REI & OB/GYN
A native of Chattanooga, Dr. Murray attended medical school at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis and his residency and a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology Infertility at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. During this time he received numerous awards for his dedication to teaching and delivering outstanding, compassionate and ethical care. His decision to become a reproductive endocrinologist was influenced in large part by his and his wife’s own struggles with infertility.
“By being a fertility patient myself, I learned a great deal of what is important to a fertility patient. Direct, honest answers from a person who truly cares makes all the difference in the world.”
REI & OB/GYN
Dr. Scotchie attended medical school at the University of Florida, followed by a residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology and a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a training program recently recognized as the 4th best residency program in the United States. She has been elected one of the "Best Doctors in America" fours years in a row — a recognition given only to the top five percent of doctors. Dr. Scotchie’s passion is caring for other women, and she has dedicated her career to improving their lives.
“In founding TRM, Dr. Murray and I had a vision to create a special infertility practice with an intimate feel compared with some IVF programs...While I cannot help all patients achieve pregnancy, I can help them through the obstacles and difficulties by delivering compassionate expert care.”
OB/GYN
Dr. Natalie Vukmer completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology and is an OB/GYN at Tennessee Reproductive Medicine. Being able to care for women throughout their lives and during their most vulnerable moments is what drew Dr. Vukmer to pursue becoming an OB/GYN. But it is her connections with her patients that she values most in her work.
“At the end of the day, one of the most rewarding aspects of my job is the relationship I build with my patients.”
