Fertility Program

Dr. Pero was born and raised in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and comes from a long lineage of accomplished, well-respected physicians. Surrounded by strong, supportive women throughout her life, she naturally gravitated toward medicine and developed a deep passion for women’s healthcare, ultimately specializing in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Dr. Roxanne Pero earned her M.D. from Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans and completed her residency at the University of Texas Southwestern/Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas. She is board-certified by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. With years of experience in private practice, Dr. Pero specializes in Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Infertility, providing care to thousands of women and supporting families through high-risk pregnancies. She is a Diplomate and Fellow of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. Additionally, she is board-certified in Functional Medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine.

During her own infertility journey with her husband, Dr. Pero was diagnosed with Endometriosis, Uterine Fibroids, Hormone Imbalance, and Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura — none of which “ran in her family.” This pivotal moment led her to recognize the limitations of relying solely on Western Medicine, while discovering the powerful advantages of Integrative, Lifestyle, and Functional Medicine.

After incorporating targeted nutrition, supplements, acupuncture, and whole-body support alongside modern fertility treatments, she was able to conceive. She and her husband went on to have three biological children and adopted their fourth. By embracing a Functional Medicine lifestyle through personalized nutrition and supplementation, regular movement, sleep, and stress optimization, and other foundational pillars of health, she has remained symptom-free from Endometriosis and Uterine Fibroids without surgical intervention or hormone therapy.

With over 15 years of nursing experience, caring for patients of all ages, Rebecca has a strong foundation in family practice, where she has spent the majority of her career supporting individuals and families in their health journeys. 

After earning her Master of Science in Nursing from the Louise Herrington School of Nursing at Baylor University in Dallas, Rebecca’s passion for functional medicine was sparked by personal health experiences and genuine intellectual intrigue, which led her to pursue certification through the Institute for Functional Medicine.

Dedicated to helping patients thrive in their pursuit of optimal health, she’s committed to building collaborative partnerships with her clients. Through education and shared decision-making, she aims to honor each individual’s unique needs and goals. Her clinical interests include hormone optimization, weight management, and preventive care for lifelong wellness.
