Patient Testimonial
Dr. Healy is amazing! She was there to help us through every step of our fertility journey. She checked in frequently and was always able to answer any questions we had. Her calm and supportive demeanor brought a sense of peace to my husband and I during these anxious times.

I have had a great experience with Dr. Shah and his team at Shady Grove Fertility in Spring. If you’re wanting to try IVF but you’re nervous, give SGF a shot because the process was much more manageable than I thought it would be, due to the experience and kindness of this team.

Choosing Dr. Shah and his team at SGF for our IVF journey is one of the best decisions my partner and I made. Dr. Shah possesses exceptional medical expertise, but also a remarkable level of empathy, which is such a rare combination to experience as a patient. 

Dr. Morris was thoughtful and caring! She checked in throughout the entire egg retrieval process and responded to all questions. As a person of color, I deliberately sought her to be the lead of this very delicate and important step in my life. She was an outstanding provider!

We could not be more thankful to have had Dr. Katler’s support during our IVF journey. He was extremely thoughtful and attentive to our medical and emotional needs. We are eternally grateful to have found such a great doctor. Highly recommend!

Dr. Quaas is the kindest, most caring doctor. The team is truly the best and they really care about the patients. It’s a new practice, but I truly believe Dr. Quaas and the team understand the research and have great success rates. My husband and I are so grateful!

Q&A

For as long as I can remember, I have been passionate about the field of medicine and how science can be used to improve patients’ lives. I see no greater privilege than being able to help patients as they navigate their journey to building a family, which is why I chose to become an REI physician.

After extensive reproductive endocrinology and infertility training during my residency, I knew I wanted to become a reproductive healthcare provider. No two patients presenting for fertility care are the same. Working alongside patients, developing individualized treatment plans and helping patients reach their specific fertility goals, is an incredibly fulfilling experience.

Shady Grove Fertility is, first and foremost, focused on providing the best care to the patient. As a practice, SGF prioritizes research and innovation, so that patients continue to receive the most up to date, evidence-based care.

I had the opportunity to take care of a patient with multiple unexplained recurrent pregnancy losses. Her resilience and strength to continue treatment, despite the uncertainty of the future, was incredibly inspiring to me.

I want patients to always know they are not alone during their fertility journey. Their entire care team at SGF supports them, will advocate for them, and can provide many additional resources as needed. 

My grandmother — she was a mother to six and one of the only female lawyers at her firm in the 1950s. She overcame a lot of adversity and did not take “no” for an answer! 

Most of the time, energetic and upbeat!

To visit all 7 continents! 

I love being outside in any capacity! Hiking, running, playing tennis.
