When women search for care related to vaginal and pelvic floor health, one of the first questions they ask is simple: who is actually providing this treatment? At FemRenew in Toronto, every O-Shot, PRP, and MonaLisa Touch procedure is performed by Dr. Fay Weisberg, and her medical background is a big part of why patients feel confident choosing FemRenew for non-surgical, non-hormonal care.
This article introduces Dr. Weisberg’s training and current clinical roles, and explains why her background matters when you are deciding where to seek treatment for a sensitive health concern. You can also read her full biography on our About FemRenew page.
Dr. Fay Weisberg’s Medical Training and Credentials
Dr. Weisberg completed postgraduate training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Toronto, one of Canada’s leading academic medical programs. She holds fellow status with several respected professional bodies, including the Society of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Canada, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, and the Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society.
These credentials reflect ongoing engagement with the broader medical community, not simply a single certification earned early in a career. Readers interested in how OB/GYN training and fellowship credentials work more generally can review the University of Toronto’s own Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, where Dr. Weisberg holds an appointment as Assistant Professor.
What Fellowship Status Represents
Fellowship in a medical society is not an entry-level credential. It typically reflects years of practice, continued professional engagement, and peer recognition within a specialty. Holding fellow status across four separate organizations spanning obstetrics and gynaecology, reproductive medicine, and fertility medicine reflects a physician who has stayed active across multiple related fields rather than narrowing to a single niche early on.
For patients researching a provider before a sensitive consultation, this kind of multi-society involvement is a useful signal. It suggests ongoing exposure to current research, evolving best practices, and peer discussion, rather than training that stopped advancing after initial certification.
Current Clinical Roles
Beyond her role as Clinic Director of FemRenew, Dr. Weisberg is an active gynecologist at Sunnybrook Hospital, one of Toronto’s major academic hospitals, and is also Clinic Director of First Steps Fertility. Maintaining hospital-based clinical practice alongside a specialty non-surgical clinic means she continues to see a broad range of gynecological presentations, not only the conditions FemRenew treats directly.
This combination of hospital-based OB/GYN practice and focused non-surgical, non-hormonal treatment experience is relatively uncommon, and it shapes how FemRenew approaches patient care: thorough clinical evaluation first, then a conversation about whether non-surgical options are appropriate.
Practicing in both a hospital setting and a specialty clinic also means Dr. Weisberg regularly sees how different treatment approaches play out over time, across a wide range of patients and circumstances. That breadth of exposure is difficult to replicate in a practice limited to a single setting.
Why FemRenew’s Non-Surgical, Non-Hormonal Approach Reflects This Background
FemRenew describes itself as a non-surgical, non-hormonal clinic providing safe, fast, and effective treatments for vaginal and pelvic floor conditions. That positioning is not incidental. FemRenew’s own materials describe Dr. Weisberg as one of Canada’s first gynaecologists to offer laser and PRP treatment for vaginal tissue renewal, meaning the clinic’s non-surgical focus grew out of early, direct clinical experience with these technologies rather than being added as an afterthought.
For patients, this means treatment recommendations come from a physician who has both traditional OB/GYN training and specific, long-standing familiarity with laser and PRP-based approaches to vaginal health.
Why FemRenew Highlights This Background at All
Some clinics keep a provider’s credentials tucked away on a rarely visited page. FemRenew takes a different approach because, for a treatment area this personal, we believe patients are better served by understanding exactly who they are trusting with their care before they ever book an appointment. That transparency extends to being clear about what Dr. Weisberg’s background does and does not guarantee: strong credentials support confidence in a provider, but every patient’s evaluation and treatment plan still depends on their own individual history and symptoms.
What This Means for Your First Visit
Every FemRenew consultation begins with a conversation, not a procedure. Dr. Weisberg’s team uses your OB/GYN history and current symptoms to determine whether MonaLisa Touch, PRP therapy, or another non-surgical option is appropriate, and to explain what a realistic treatment plan could look like before anything is scheduled.
Patients are often relieved to learn that the first appointment is primarily a discussion. There is no expectation that you will commit to a treatment plan on the spot, and questions about credentials, experience, or the reasoning behind a recommendation are always welcome.
How to Verify a Provider’s Credentials Yourself
Patients do not need to simply take a clinic’s word for a physician’s background. Provincial medical regulatory colleges maintain public registries where anyone can look up a physician’s licensing status, education, and any disciplinary history. Hospital and university websites, such as Sunnybrook’s and the University of Toronto’s, also list current faculty and staff appointments publicly.
Taking a few minutes to check these public sources before a sensitive consultation is a reasonable step, and a transparent clinic should have no issue with patients doing exactly that. FemRenew’s team welcomes questions about credentials rather than treating them as an inconvenience.
Why Provider Background Matters for Sensitive Health Concerns
Vaginal and pelvic floor health can feel like an especially vulnerable topic to bring to a new provider. Knowing that the physician performing your treatment has both broad OB/GYN training and specific, long-standing experience with the exact procedures being discussed can make that conversation easier to start.
This is part of why FemRenew is transparent about who performs each treatment. Patients deserve to know not just what a procedure involves, but who is actually behind it.
How This Background Shapes Day-to-Day Patient Care
Credentials matter most when they translate into how a consultation actually unfolds. In practice, this means intake conversations that draw on broader OB/GYN training to rule out or identify other contributing factors, not just a narrow focus on the specific treatment a patient asked about. It also means a treatment recommendation is grounded in a physician’s own direct clinical experience with that exact procedure, rather than general familiarity from training materials alone.
For patients, the practical result is a consultation that feels thorough rather than rushed, and a treatment plan that reflects years of hands-on experience rather than a standardized script applied to every patient in the same way.
