Patient Testimonial
From the very first appointment Dr Griffith was compassionate, patient, and always took the time to explain every step of the process in a way that made us feel informed and supported. IVF can be overwhelming, but he never rushed our questions and made sure we truly understood our options.

Dr. Griffith was very attentive to our concerns and thorough when explaining our plan of care! Thank you.

Dr. Griffith is an honest, compassionate physician who truly puts his patients first. He is a true role model for what healthcare providers should strive to be.

We are so blessed to have found Shady Grove and Dr. Vitez, Hailey, and Bree and the rest of the Shady Grove staff.

Simply put, SGF helped my husband and I become parents to our son, and for that, we are forever grateful to the SGF crew. Thank you will never be enough, but THANK YOU SGF!

Loved my experience with SGF! They go above and beyond for their patients. I highly recommend them to all my friends and family members who may experience some sort of pregnancy infertility or complication because they felt like family when I finally got to announce a successful pregnancy.

Q&A

I chose to work in this field because I love being a part of someone’s journey. I want to empower women with education about their fertility and be a support system throughout their treatment process. Each one of us is unique and our fertility care should reflect this. I enjoy building relationships with patients and knowing that I can be there to provide a safe space through their fertility journey means so much to me as an advanced practice provider.

I love doing workout classes, reading, playing with my pittie, and helping with animal rescue organizations!  

I have not been to an Eagles game even though I lived in Philadelphia for years – GO BIRDS!
