Biography

Dr. Gabrielsen’s clinical focus is male reproductive health—male infertility, fertility preservation, vasectomy/vasectomy reversal, erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, male sexual dysfunction, low testosterone. He is fellowship trained in microsurgery and performs vasectomy reversal, testicular/epididymal sperm extraction, micro TESE and varicocele repair for the treatment of male infertility, and performs microsurgical spermatic cord denervation for chronic testicular pain. He also offers medical and surgical treatment options for erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease. He works closely with the Reproductive Endocrinologists at the UR Medicine Strong Fertility Center to evaluate and treat male factor infertility in couples pursuing assisted reproductive techniques. As a research scientist, he seeks to understand the mechanisms underlying infertility and hypogonadism in order to develop novel diagnostic and treatment options for his patients.

Dr. Gabrielsen received his Medical Doctorate and PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2011. He completed residency at the Harvard Urologic Surgery Residency Program at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2017. He completed a two-year fellowship in Male Reproductive Medicine and Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, in 2019.

At URMC, we believe that patients should be empowered to make the right decisions regarding their personal healthcare. To do so, transparency is critical. URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website. This will help you make better-informed choices about how and with whom you seek care. Click here to learn more about the surveys used to generate this vital information.
