Patient Testimonial
After our first appointment with Dr. Kallen we knew that he would be the right doctor for us based off of the knowledge, honesty and compassion he showed. We will be forever grateful to Dr. Kallen and his team!

I have been to 5 fertility clinics and seen 6 fertility doctors. Dr. Bressler and Shady Grove was hands down my best experience…by a landslide. Dr. B made me feel like an important individual. I can’t say enough good things about this practice and about Dr B.

At no point in time did I feel hopeless and was always comforted by next steps and kind words. But Dr. Mitchell truly is extra. I felt like her only patient. I can’t speak enough to her kindness. It is my firm belief that she 100000X capable of leading someone to pregnancy success.

I had a wonderful experience with IVF at Shady Grove. The staff were incredibly friendly and supportive throughout the entire process. I am especially grateful for Dr. Sally Vitez, whose positivity and expertise made a significant difference. I couldn’t be more thankful for her and the entire team!

Dr. Davis is the sweetest doctor and Dee is so wonderful I couldn’t imagine going through this journey with any other clinic. Thank you guys so much for everything. If you thinking about doing IVF this clinic is beyond everything you need for your fertility journey.

Dr. Lersten is so kind and explains procedures calmly, which helps relieve anxiety while going through the difficult process of fertility treatments. I am thankful to SGF for helping me build the family I’ve always wanted. I highly recommend SGF to anyone going through infertility.

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.
