I completed my undergraduate training at the University of Texas at El Paso, majoring in biology with a minor in chemistry. I matriculated to the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston for medical school, and in 1988, also participated in a summer internship at the NIH working with the development of a rapid diagnostic skin test for people infected with Strongyloides stercoralis, before starting my clinical years. I completed my internship and residency in obstetrics and gynecology at LBJ Hospital and the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in Houston. I finally left Texas and ventured to the northeast, where I completed my fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at New England Medical Center (NEMC)/ Tufts Medical School. I continued on staff at NEMC for 6 years before coming to Massachusetts General Hospital.
Over my career, I have focused on the surgical aspect of infertility and reproduction. This includes endometriosis, fibroids, surgical repair of uterine anomalies and scar tissue, and repair of damaged fallopian tubes. I also co-direct the Mass General Integrated Fibroid Program. I have a strong interest in fertility treatment outcomes, reproductive surgery outcomes, environmental factors and reproduction, diversity in reproductive health care treatments.
Everyone is very friendly. They explain the procedures to you. I feel very comfortable in this hospital and I recommend it.
Very reassuring and pleasant
Dr. Petrozza made me feel very reassured when going into surgery with him. I highly recommend him for minimally invasive OBGYN support.
He was very opening about hearing on what is going on and how he can help me and my husband have a baby ! He had a lot more opinions than my last Doctor at Boston ivf! We left the zoom meeting very confident about what he said to us !
Dr. Petrozza was personable, knowledgeable, and understanding. He presented test results and a plan moving forward in a detailed but understandable way. He took the time to answer all questions, which were a bunch since this was our first visit. I feel optimistic and comfortable in his care.
Great experience, very calm and confident doctor which I appreciate
Dr. PETROZZA was phenomenal. he was friendly, knowledgeable, warm, and very thorough. He established rapport and helped create a comfortable environment, even though we were discussing less than ideal circumstances. He was great!
