Patient Testimonial
With Dr. Mitchell, I felt like I actually had options and was an active participant in my treatment plan. One of the things that sets her apart is how communicative she is. She personally handled most of my appointments, and when she didn’t, she always made a point to call or send a message.

From the very first consultation, Dr. Mitchell made my husband and I feel at ease and reassured. Having a infertility diagnosis felt so scary and left us with so many questions about the future, but she helped ease our fears.

This has been far an experience for my family, and I however doctor Mitchell has been amazing and very straight forward from the very beginning. I’m so thankful for her and the wonderful staff that made me feel as family everytime I arrived there.

I am so grateful to have found myself at SGF Carolinas. In this clinic I received an extremely thorough fertility workup, an individualized treatment plan, and always felt heard by my care team.

I would highly recommend Dr. Selter due to her knowledge, attention to detail, empathy/care for patients, and ability to explain things patiently during a time of high stress for patients. She explained things to me every step of the way so that I would feel comfortable and informed.

I wish I could give them more stars! Everyone here was so sweet and kind along my entire journey. My nurse Mya has been SO responsive with my billion questions! Dr. Swelstad is just amazing! Every single person in this facility made me feel so special and so well taken care of!

Q&A

After starting out my career as a physician assistant working in family medicine, I was able to begin what I consider to be my “dream job” here at Shady Grove Fertility. While my interest in fertility began during my physician assistant training in my reproductive endocrinology rotation with Abington Reproductive Medicine, I later developed a passion for this field after becoming an infertility patient myself. I have a two-and-a-half year old son, Finn, who was conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF) with Shady Grove Fertility in 2019. Having experienced the heartache of failed attempts, I have a profound degree of compassion for our patients, a distinct understanding of their journeys, and a strong desire to contribute to the advancement of the field of fertility medicine in whatever capacity that I can. I also have a sincere appreciation for and trust in the physicians of Shady Grove Fertility. I see every day how Shady Grove Fertility creates hope and fulfills the dreams of our patients, and I am honored to be a part of the Shady Grove Fertility Team.

I enjoy spending time with my family. We worked so hard to conceive my son, and I treasure every moment that I have with him.
