Our profession was made better by her, and we will all miss her.' ACRM was also honored to have Howard Jones, MD speak at its annual Infertility Symposium in 2003. Dr. Jones addressed attendees from around the state on the history of fertility technology and ethical issues surrounding treatment. About the Author: Doctor Georgeanna Jones was a leader in the field of reproductive medicine and will be greatly missed by her colleagues and the infertility practice community.
