Patient Testimonial
We transferred to SGF after starting our infertility journey at another local clinic and couldn’t have been happier with our decision! You would never know it is a large national clinic with the care you receive. We can’t thank Dr. Mitchell, Ellie, Wendy and all the staff at SGF enough!

Had my first consultation with Dr. Kendall and could not have been more pleased! She was so kind, patient and thorough during the consultation. With this being such a sensitive topic, and walking in extremely anxious, we left feeling so hopeful and excited about the journey.

Dr. Mitchell is easily the best doctor I’ve ever had. She took the time to explain each step, discuss options, and ensure I felt informed and empowered throughout the process. I was also impressed by how much she remembered about my history, preferences, and goals.

This office of ladies has been nothing short of a blessing in mine and my husbands life. We wouldn’t have been able to get to this position without our wonderful medical team! We are so blessed to have found Shady Grove and Dr. Vitez, Hailey, and Bree and the rest of the Shady Grove staff.

Dr. Healy was there for my husband and I after our D&C, and we immediately wanted to switch to her. By a disguised blessing, we were able to and she was on the journey with us as we expect our new miracle baby. I would recommend Dr. Healy over and over and over!

I cannot express enough good things about Dr. Mae Healy (and her nurse Emily)! She has truly walked right alongside us with every test result, diagnosis, exciting moment, all the way to graduation. She not only laughs with you, she educates you, and includes you. I will forever be grateful for her.

Q&A

My own experience with infertility drew me to work in this field. I found that that the compassionate care that is the hallmark of midwifery practice is equally important during the preconception process as it is during pregnancy and labor. Working in reproductive medicine I can realize midwifery’s mission to be ‘with woman’ and fulfill my professional goal of humanizing and normalizing an alternate path to fertility.

I enjoy my two Boston terriers, hiking, traveling and doing crosswords.

That I have hiked large portions of the Pacific Crest Trail on backpacking trips during the summers of my youth.
