Joe S. McIlhaney, Jr., MD

Founder and Chief Executive Officer — The Medical Institute for Sexual Health

Joe S. McIlhaney, Jr., M.D., is a board-certified obstetrician/gynecologist who resides in Plano, Texas. He moved to Plano in 2010 because of his wife, Marion. She had developed Alzheimer’s of which she died in 2018. He has three daughters and ten grandchildren. During his tenure as a private practitioner, he was active on the medical staff of St. David’s Community Hospital, including serving as President of the Medical Staff and member of the hospital’s Board of Trustees. As a physician, he focused his attention on reproductive technologies. He introduced laparoscopy, gynecologic laser surgery and microsurgery to the central Texas medical community. In 1984, along with three other physicians, Dr. McIlhaney was instrumental in founding one of the first successful non-university IVF programs in the country. Dr. McIlhaney was instrumental in the Hospital Board of Directors guidelines for the IVF program protecting human embryos. By limiting the number of eggs fertilized to those the husband and wife would agree in writing to receive back into the woman’s uterus, the number of excess embryos were almost eliminated. He also initiated one of the first dedicated women’s health centers in a private hospital in Texas at St. David’s Hospital during his tenure on the board. Dr. McIlhaney is the author of eight books including, 1250 Health-Care Questions Women Ask and Girls Uncovered and Hooked: The Brain Science on How Casual Sex Affects Human Development. Some of the books have been translated into foreign languages. His research for his books and the information in the books focused on the problems rampant in the USA and around the world, of STI’s, non-marital pregnancy and HIV/AID’s. As a result, he founded The Medical Institute for Sexual Health, a non-profit medical/educational research organization in 1992. In 1995, he left his private practice of twenty-eight years to devote his full-time attention to working with that organization. He retired from the Presidency of the Organization in 2005. He realized that there was no coordinated effort to provide healthy sexual guidance to young people in the United States. Many organizations around the country focused on guiding young people to being involved in sexual activity only if married. Dr. McIlhaney brought many of these issues together in the New Sexual Revolution Coalition. This group now consists of more than 400 groups and individuals working closely together. Dr. McIlhaney in early 2021 was then called back to leadership of the organization and continues in that role to the present.
