Document: EFTA00552910
Direct evidence link: View EFTA00552910
Date created: August 2, 2012
Date sent or filed: August 2, 2012
Date released: Published through the United States Department of Justice Epstein disclosures. The precise release date is not stated on the face of the record.
Author or creator: Unidentified or redacted correspondent
Sender: Unidentified or redacted correspondent
Recipient: Jeffrey Epstein
Custodian or producing source: United States Department of Justice, EFTA Data Set 9
Evidence type: Email concerning IVF, hormone treatment, and plans to arrange a medical appointment
Length and format: PDF reproduction of a short email exchange
Case or investigation: Department of Justice Epstein Files Transparency Act disclosure
People named: Jeffrey Epstein and a person identified only as Eva. The correspondent and physician’s name are redacted in EFTA00552910. The parallel copy EFTA01873860 visibly names the physician as Zev Rosenwaks.
Organizations named: No medical institution is expressly identified in the reply. The professional affiliation of Zev Rosenwaks, named in the parallel copy, is background from the institutional source below, not information stated in EFTA00552910.
Locations named: No location is expressly stated in the available exchange.
Content warning: This record contains private fertility and reproductive health information, including references to IVF, hormone treatment, and a planned medical appointment.
Key takeaway: EFTA00552910 records an unidentified correspondent arranging an appointment with a doctor recommended by Eva after Epstein raised IVF and hormones. This copy redacts the physician’s name. The parallel copy EFTA01873860 names Zev Rosenwaks. Neither copy proves that an appointment occurred or treatment was undertaken.

What Is This Record?

EFTA00552910 is a short email reply preserved among records released by the United States Department of Justice. The exchange concerns in vitro fertilization, commonly called IVF, hormone treatment, and a proposed medical appointment. The physician’s name is redacted in this Data Set 9 copy but visible as Zev Rosenwaks in the Data Set 10 parallel copy EFTA01873860.

Source clarification, October 19, 2026: Earlier wording incorrectly presented the physician’s name as visible in EFTA00552910. The name is visible in the separate production copy EFTA01873860. The quotation and citations below now distinguish the copies. Their different redactions do not establish that DOJ later altered either file.

The reply must be read together with EFTA00940204, which preserves the preceding message attributed to Jeffrey Epstein:

“I have been reading up on the invitro fertilization„ lets have a discussion before you start taking hormones.”

In EFTA00552910, the correspondent replied as follows. The bracketed notation marks the redaction in the scan:

“Ok thanks for looking into. I’m in the process of making an appointment with the doc Eva recommended, [name redacted].”

The wording places Epstein inside a private discussion about the correspondent’s reproductive health planning. The same reply in EFTA01873860 visibly names Zev Rosenwaks after the reference to Eva’s recommendation. The name is supported by that parallel primary record, not by reconstructing the redaction in EFTA00552910.

The record does not identify the correspondent in a manner that can be responsibly confirmed from this exchange alone. It also does not provide enough information to establish the identity of Eva.

Source and Provenance

Primary source: EFTA00552910 through Epstein Data

Parallel primary record: EFTA01873860, Data Set 10. This copy preserves the same reply and quoted preceding message, with the physician’s name visible.

Official or court source: United States Department of Justice copy of EFTA00552910

Official disclosure collection: Department of Justice Epstein Library

Version-history limitation: The site-hosted EFTA00552910 PDF and the screenshot attached to the article in February 2026 both show the physician-name redaction. Their attachment dates are site metadata, not independently authenticated historical checksums. No verified earlier unredacted version of EFTA00552910 was established in this review.

The EFTA identifier allows the record to be located within the federal disclosure collection. Official publication provides strong evidence of the record’s provenance as a document contained in the government production. It does not independently prove that every statement made inside the email was accurate or that every plan mentioned in it was completed.

EpsteinWiki’s DOJ Vault Data Set 9, 10, and 11 Files page provides additional context about the numbered federal productions and the limitations that apply when interpreting released records.

What the Record Contains

The record preserves two connected communications.

First, Epstein wrote that he had been reading about IVF and wanted to have a discussion before the correspondent began taking hormones.

Second, the correspondent thanked Epstein for looking into the subject and said an appointment was being arranged with a doctor recommended by Eva. The physician’s name is redacted in EFTA00552910 and visible as Zev Rosenwaks in EFTA01873860.

The exchange contains four significant elements.

Epstein was discussing IVF with the correspondent.
Epstein referred specifically to the possibility that the correspondent would begin taking hormones.
The correspondent told Epstein that an appointment was being arranged with a doctor whose name is redacted in this copy.
The correspondent attributed the doctor’s recommendation to someone identified only as Eva; the parallel copy identifies the doctor as Zev Rosenwaks.

The email does not disclose the correspondent’s diagnosis, treatment history, intended reproductive arrangement, relationship with Epstein, or reason for including him in the discussion.

Key Evidence Points

Epstein was discussing IVF and hormone treatment

Epstein’s message was not a generic reference to fertility medicine. He wrote about IVF in direct relation to the correspondent beginning hormone treatment and requested a discussion before that occurred.

This establishes that Epstein was engaging with the correspondent about a prospective medical decision. The record does not explain whether the correspondent had requested his research or advice.

The correspondent said she was arranging an appointment

The reply states that the correspondent was “in the process of making an appointment.” That wording documents an expressed intention and an ongoing scheduling effort.

It does not prove that an appointment was successfully scheduled, attended, or followed by medical treatment.

The parallel copy names Zev Rosenwaks

EFTA01873860 visibly identifies Zev Rosenwaks as the proposed physician. EFTA00552910 redacts that name. Separately, Weill Cornell Medicine identifies Rosenwaks as a specialist in reproductive endocrinology and infertility and as Director and Physician in Chief of the Ronald O. Perelman and Claudia Cohen Center for Reproductive Medicine. His specialty is background, not a basis for filling in a redacted name.

Weill Cornell also describes his work in assisted reproductive technology, IVF, ovarian stimulation, egg donation, cryopreservation, and related fertility care.

His appearance in the parallel copy does not establish that Rosenwaks met the correspondent, knew about Epstein’s participation in the conversation, communicated with Epstein, or committed any wrongdoing.

A person named Eva reportedly recommended Rosenwaks

Both copies say the appointment concerned “the doc Eva recommended.” The name Rosenwaks is visible in EFTA01873860, not EFTA00552910. The exchange does not provide Eva’s surname or other identifying information.

One possible interpretation is that the reference concerned Eva Andersson Dubin, a physician and longtime Epstein associate whose name appears elsewhere in the released records. The email itself does not establish that identification. The reference must therefore remain unresolved unless corroborating correspondence or metadata confirms it.

The record belongs to a broader group of fertility related communications

Other released records contain references to fertility specialists, egg freezing, sperm banking, hormones, egg retrieval, and cryogenic storage. Those records make this email relevant to broader research into Epstein’s repeated involvement in private reproductive discussions.

They do not automatically concern the same woman, the same proposed treatment, or the same reproductive plan. Similar subject matter is not proof of a shared episode.

What the Record Does and Does Not Prove

What it establishes

An email attributed to Epstein states that he had been reading about IVF.
Epstein asked to have a discussion before the correspondent began taking hormones.
The correspondent replied that she was in the process of arranging an appointment.
The parallel primary record EFTA01873860 names Zev Rosenwaks; the physician’s name is redacted in EFTA00552910.
The correspondent said a person named Eva had recommended the doctor.
The exchange occurred on August 2, 2012.
The communication was preserved within records released through the federal EFTA disclosure process.

What it does not establish

It does not identify the correspondent with sufficient certainty.
It does not prove that the appointment was completed.
It does not prove that the correspondent became Rosenwaks’s patient.
It does not prove that hormone treatment began.
It does not prove that IVF, egg retrieval, egg freezing, embryo creation, fertilization, implantation, or pregnancy occurred.
It does not identify the source of any sperm, eggs, or embryos.
It does not establish Epstein’s biological participation in any reproductive procedure.
It does not explain why Epstein was researching IVF or why the correspondent discussed the matter with him.
It does not prove that Epstein paid for, directed, controlled, or coerced medical treatment.
It does not prove that Rosenwaks knew Epstein was involved in the private discussion.
It does not establish that Rosenwaks communicated with Epstein about this correspondent.
It does not establish that the person named Eva was Eva Andersson Dubin.
It does not show that the correspondent was an Epstein employee, survivor, victim, recruiter, or participant in criminal conduct.
It does not independently connect this exchange to reported claims concerning Epstein’s interest in reproduction, genetics, eugenics, or impregnating multiple women.
It does not establish wrongdoing by the correspondent, Rosenwaks, or the person identified only as Eva.

Unresolved questions

Who was the correspondent?
What relationship did the correspondent have with Epstein?
Did the correspondent ask Epstein to research IVF, or did he undertake that research independently?
Why did Epstein want a discussion before hormone treatment began?
Was an appointment with Rosenwaks actually scheduled?
Did the correspondent attend an appointment or receive treatment?
Who was the person identified as Eva?
Did Eva communicate directly with the correspondent, Epstein, or Rosenwaks?
Are there earlier or later messages that provide the missing medical and scheduling context?
What source-account or export metadata explains the different production copies and their redactions?
Why do EFTA00552910 and EFTA01873860 redact the physician’s name differently?
Were the matching copies produced from separate exports or custodial collections?

People and Entities Appearing in the Record

Jeffrey Epstein

Jeffrey Epstein was the recipient of the reply and the apparent author of the preceding message. His statement shows that he was reading about IVF and expected to discuss the subject before the correspondent began hormone treatment.

The record does not explain his authority, motive, or intended role.

Unidentified correspondent

The correspondent said an appointment was being arranged with the doctor Eva recommended. The parallel copy names the doctor as Zev Rosenwaks. The correspondent’s identity remains redacted and should not be inferred from this private medical exchange.

No criminal inference should be drawn from her participation in a private medical discussion.

Dr. Zev Rosenwaks

Rosenwaks is a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist. Weill Cornell identifies him as a leading physician in assisted reproduction and IVF.

EFTA01873860 names him as a physician recommended to the correspondent; EFTA00552910 redacts that name. Neither copy documents direct communication between Rosenwaks and Epstein, confirms that an appointment occurred, or establishes misconduct by Rosenwaks.

Eva

Eva is identified only as the person who recommended the doctor, named in the parallel copy as Zev Rosenwaks. No surname, address, professional title, or other unique identifier for Eva appears in the exchange.

Although Eva Andersson Dubin is a possible contextual match, that identification is not established by EFTA00552910.

United States Department of Justice

The Department of Justice published the record as part of the federal Epstein disclosure collection. Its role here concerns custody and public release, not authorship of the email or verification of every statement within it.

Timeline Significance

The exchange occurred on August 2, 2012, several years after Epstein’s 2008 Florida conviction and incarceration. It therefore documents continued private access to Epstein during the period after his conviction.

Within the immediate email sequence, the chronology is straightforward.

Epstein said he had been reading about IVF.
He requested a discussion before the correspondent began taking hormones.
The correspondent replied that an appointment was being arranged with a doctor Eva recommended. The name is visible only in the parallel copy discussed above.

This sequence matters because the reply is not an isolated mention of a physician. It directly answers Epstein’s message about IVF and hormone planning.

Within the broader record, EFTA00552910 is relevant because other released communications also associate Epstein with fertility related discussions. Researchers should compare those records for recurring names, referrals, dates, and procedures while avoiding the unsupported assumption that every message involved one coordinated plan.

Related Evidence

Directly connected record

EFTA00940204: Jeffrey Epstein Email Discussing IVF and Hormone Treatment

This is the preceding message to which EFTA00552910 responds. It provides the immediate IVF and hormone context; it is not the source identifying the proposed physician.

Parallel copy with the physician’s name visible

EFTA01873860: DOJ Record Containing the IVF and Rosenwaks Exchange

The actual scan of EFTA01873860 preserves the same reply and quoted preceding message as EFTA00552910. The reply dates match: August 2, 2012 at 20:02:03 in EFTA00552910 and 8:02:03 PM in EFTA01873860. Both quote Epstein’s August 2 message at 1:07 AM about IVF and hormones. EFTA00552910 blacks out the physician’s name; EFTA01873860 visibly prints Zev Rosenwaks. Treat these as parallel production copies of the same exchange, not two independent events. This comparison does not establish a later change to either file.

Broader fertility related records

EFTA02329528: 2016 Email to Jeffrey Epstein and Karyna Shuliak Referencing Dr. Rosenwaks

This later record concerns a fertility specialist and different identified participants. It provides thematic context but does not establish that the 2012 correspondent was Karyna Shuliak.

EFTA00827984: 2016 Email From Jeffrey Epstein Asking About Sperm Banking

This email documents Epstein raising a separate fertility preservation subject several years later.

EFTA00835392: 2018 Email About an Egg Retrieval Procedure Communicated to Jeffrey Epstein

This record concerns a later medical procedure. It does not establish any connection to the unidentified correspondent in EFTA00552910.

EFTA00841630: 2018 Email Discussing Egg Freezing Hormones and Immigration Assistance With Jeffrey Epstein

This later communication combines references to reproductive health and administrative assistance. It must be evaluated as a separate exchange involving its own participants and circumstances.

EFTA00313848: California Cryobank Liability and Specimen Control Terms Signed by Jeffrey Epstein

This record concerns contractual terms governing stored reproductive material.

EFTA00313838: California Cryobank Specimen Storage Agreement Signed by Jeffrey Epstein

This agreement is potentially relevant to research concerning Epstein’s documented interest in reproductive material and storage. It does not prove that the 2012 exchange resulted in any specimen collection or storage.

The presence of multiple fertility related records supports further investigation into Epstein’s recurring interest in reproductive medicine. It does not permit the separate records to be merged into one factual narrative without documentary links between them.

Reliability and Limitations

EFTA00552910 is primary communication evidence of IVF, hormones, and a proposed appointment entering the correspondence. Its redacted physician-name field must not be transcribed as visible text. The identification of Zev Rosenwaks comes from the separately cited parallel primary record EFTA01873860.

Its principal limitations are substantial.

The correspondent’s identity is not established.
The record provides only a narrow section of the surrounding conversation.
The full reason for Epstein’s involvement is absent.
The person named Eva is not uniquely identified.
No appointment confirmation, medical record, invoice, calendar entry, or later treatment report is included.
The quoted text contains spelling and punctuation irregularities that may derive from the original messages, export process, or text extraction.
The record does not reveal whether other recipients were included.
A repeated copy of the same email does not constitute independent corroboration.
Secondary reporting can help locate connected records, but its interpretations must remain separate from what the primary email proves.

Under the EpsteinWiki Evidence Framework, this record should be classified as primary communication evidence. It establishes the content of the exchange. It does not establish completion of the medical plans discussed within it.

Survivor Safety and Privacy Review

This record contains highly sensitive reproductive health information about an unidentified person. Publication should preserve the evidentiary value of the exchange without exposing unnecessary personal information.

The correspondent’s identity should not be inferred from adjacent records, email address fragments, social associations, or similarity to other fertility related messages unless independent evidence conclusively establishes the match.

No private email address, telephone number, medical account information, date of birth, address, or other personal identifier should be reproduced.

The correspondent should not be described as a survivor, victim, employee, accomplice, or romantic partner unless reliable evidence separately establishes that status. Participation in this email does not itself support any such classification.

The reference to medical care should be limited to what the record states. There is no basis to disclose or speculate about a diagnosis, fertility history, pregnancy status, sexual history, or intended parentage.

Why This Record Matters

EFTA00552910 matters because it provides a direct, contemporaneous reply to Epstein’s message about IVF and hormones. The correspondent’s response describes a concrete proposed action: arranging a medical appointment. The physician’s name is redacted in this copy and visible in EFTA01873860.

The exchange also records that a person named Eva recommended the doctor. The parallel copy identifies that doctor as Zev Rosenwaks. This documents the stated referral, not an appointment, treatment, or misconduct.

The record becomes more significant when placed beside other released fertility related communications involving Epstein. Those materials document that reproductive medicine was not mentioned only once in his correspondence.

At the same time, the email is a clear example of why careful evidence boundaries matter. It records a conversation and an intended appointment. It does not prove treatment, parentage, biological participation, coercion, or a larger reproductive program.

Its value lies in the communication it preserves: Epstein participated in a private IVF and hormone discussion with an unidentified correspondent who said an appointment was being arranged with a doctor Eva recommended. The physician’s name, Zev Rosenwaks, is established by the parallel copy EFTA01873860, not by the redacted name field in EFTA00552910.

Fact Check

Verification status: The scans of EFTA00552910 and EFTA01873860 preserve the same August 2, 2012 exchange with different redactions. The former redacts the physician’s name; the latter visibly names Zev Rosenwaks. No verified earlier unredacted version of EFTA00552910 or subsequent DOJ alteration was established. The identities of the correspondent and Eva, and the occurrence of any appointment or treatment, remain unverified.

Copy-attribution audit: October 19, 2026. Broader article review previously dated September 11, 2026.
