Patient Testimonial
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.

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!

Q&A

I went to nursing school as a non-traditional student, after having three children. My primary reason for earning my BSN was so that I could become a certified nurse-midwife (CNM). After working in labor and delivery for a few years, I realized that I preferred to sleep at night, so I knew that becoming a CNM wasn’t in the cards for me. I made the move to a fertility clinic, and the physician I worked with had just completed his residency and it was his first solo practice. I fell in love with the knowledge that I gained during my first years as an REI RN, but more importantly, I truly treasured the relationships with my patients that I had the opportunity to gain! Over the past 18 years, I have been back and forth between L&D and REI, and once I completed my MSN, my primary focus was REI. What has always brought me back to REI is still the relationships I have. I’ve almost completed my Doctor of Nursing Practice and cannot wait to engage as a leader in REI.

My two most favorite hobbies include long-distance running and I’ve got a macaron baking business! I thrive on the detail and the concentration needed for both, just as I love the adrenaline rush of completing a marathon or the smile on someone’s face when they’ve tasted my pastries!

I tend to be a very reserved person, many people think that I’m shy or introverted, but the complete opposite is true! I protect my “circle,” but if you’re in it, you’ll see just how transparent I really am!
