Patient Testimonial
I’ve been going through my IVF process whilst undergoing breast cancer treatment. After my retrievals, it was discovered that I had multiple fibroids. I met Dr. Robinson and was thoroughly impressed by his kindness and genuinely taking the time to understand my case and plan my surgery.

I had a wonderful experience with IVF at Shady Grove Fertility. 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!

A huge thank you to Leslie and Dr. Kim and the amazing clinical coordinator Dori who have been fantastic the whole way. The kindness and compassion fills the room and the organization and professionalism creates an environment of peace, trust and comfort.

Dr. Robinson was great to work with, he took what could have been an incredibly scary surgery and made it approachable and eased all of my fears. He has a wonderful bedside manner, and I am so grateful that he was available to perform my procedure.

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.

Q&A

Reproductive medicine has always been a true passion for me on a professional and personal level. As a former fertility/IVF patient, I share the struggles that our patients face and feel so privileged to have the opportunity to help guide and educate them through their fertility process. 

Family time with my daughter and husband will always be my favorite thing. I also love to bake.  

I am a true “Professional Student.” I have been “in school” or specific programs of study for 32 years of my life. There will ALWAYS be so much more to learn!
