Patient Testimonial
From the moment I walked in, I felt nothing but comfort. Whether I start now or later, I’m not trusting anyone else with my fertility health. Love this office!

I cannot recommend Dr. Marchetto enough. She walked a very unique path with us. She held my hand every step and hurdle along the way, through all the tears and celebrations. I am forever thankful for her.

After 4 years of infertility, my husband and I chose to switch practices to Shady Grove Newark and Anne Hutchinson’s care. The difference was night and day. Dr. Hutchinson listens to her patients and makes them feel valued. My only regret is not finding her sooner!!

Amazing care! Dr. Quaas and his team are so proficient, professional, caring and understanding.

Shady Grove Fertility is the best in the country and the Carolinas. I was fortunate enough to find my way into SGF after poor care and treatment at another clinic. I needed a place where I felt seen, heard, and cared for. Dr. Mersereau, Wendy, and Ellie are the dream team!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would!! We love SGF Houston – Beaumont. Dr. Crochet has been nothing but the most wonderful doctor!

Q&A

A: I spent my early nursing career working in pediatrics. The most memorable part for me was caring for not only the pediatric patient, but for the family as a whole. Throughout NP school, I developed a passion for women’s health. The innovative world of reproductive medicine and my role here at SGF provided me with the best of both worlds while also helping patients along their journey of building a family. 

A: I enjoy traveling, baking, and trying new recipes. My husband and I are absolute foodies, and we love to try new restaurants whenever we can!
