Date: Wednesday, July 9, 2008
Time: 6:30-8:00pm

Whether you are trying to advance your career, stabilize your finances, or have yet to meet that certain someone who you wish to settle down with, the inexorable truth is there is no snooze button on your biological clock. You may feel increasing anxiety about starting your own family, especially as your peers start to marry and conceive. How can you go about simply enjoying dating, or pursuing alternative goals, instead of dating with desperation to find a lifetime partner?

This intimate panel discussion will focus on the biological clock and its impact on dating and personal relationships. The panelists include: Dr. Jeffrey Klein, BoardCertified Reproductive Endocrinologist and Medical Director at Reproductive Medicine Associates of New York (RMA of NY), Westchester, Dr. Georgia Witkin, clinical psychologist at RMA of NY and author of 11 books including “The Female Stress Syndrome” and “It’s Not You, It’s Him” and Ilana Eberson, an expert in the dating, relationship and personal growth fields. Topics will include the latest advances in assisted reproductive technology and fertility preservation, fertility basics and myths, the challenges associated with trying to conceive, and how the reality of the biological clock impacts interpersonal relationships, personal decision-making and dating.
