Cheryl Dowling is a patient experience advisor, reproductive health leader, Emmy Award-winning storyteller, and bestselling author of Unspoken: The Unbearable Weight of Infertility. She is the founder of The IVF Warrior, one of the largest fertility platforms globally.

After navigating infertility, IVF, and pregnancy loss, Cheryl recognized a critical gap between how healthcare is delivered and how patients experience it. What began as personal storytelling has grown into global education, research collaboration, strategic advisory work, and partnerships focused on improving reproductive healthcare.

Her work sits at the intersection of patient experience, reproductive health, mental health, and healthcare innovation. Drawing on a background in counseling and nearly a decade of community leadership, Cheryl partners with researchers, healthcare organizations, startups, and industry leaders to ensure patient insight informs research, communication, product development, education, and care delivery.

Through millions of patient interactions, Cheryl has developed a deep understanding of the emotional, practical, and systemic challenges people face while navigating fertility care. She helps organizations bridge the gap between clinical expertise and lived experience, creating more informed, compassionate, and patient-centered solutions.

Her work has been featured by leading international media, including Forbes, Women's Health, Yahoo, MSN, and BuzzFeed, and has been recognized with a Sharecare Emmy Award for social impact storytelling.

Today, Cheryl collaborates with academic institutions, healthcare organizations, researchers, and innovators committed to building a more patient-centered future for reproductive health.
