Patient Testimonial
This office of ladies has been nothing short of a blessing in mine and my husbands life. We wouldn’t have been able to get to this position without our wonderful medical team! We are so blessed to have found Shady Grove and Dr. Vitez, Hailey, and Bree and the rest of the Shady Grove staff.

Dr. Healy was there for my husband and I after our D&C, and we immediately wanted to switch to her. By a disguised blessing, we were able to and she was on the journey with us as we expect our new miracle baby. I would recommend Dr. Healy over and over and over!

I cannot express enough good things about Dr. Mae Healy (and her nurse Emily)! She has truly walked right alongside us with every test result, diagnosis, exciting moment, all the way to graduation. She not only laughs with you, she educates you, and includes you. I will forever be grateful for her.

I’ve been going through my IVF process whilst undergoing breast cancer treatment. After my retrievals, it was discovered that I had multiple fibroids. I met Dr. Robinson and was thoroughly impressed by his kindness and genuinely taking the time to understand my case and plan my surgery.

I had a wonderful experience with IVF at Shady Grove Fertility. 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!

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.

Q&A

What I love about my job at SGF is that I get to focus on endocrinology and hormones, while also educating and empowering patients about how their bodies function, teaching what we’re looking for when we’re doing tests, why we’re using certain medications, and what’s happening in their bodies. In addition to this, there is a huge psychological component to our work. By the time people walk into our office, they’ve likely already been on an emotional roller coaster, no matter how long their fertility experience has been. It’s important to me to support our patients and their partners in the best way I can as they make their way through their journey with us, and that’s a different approach for each person. 

I love to garden and have quite a few plants in my office at work. I like to sew and knit, but over the years, these hobbies have turned into more of a textile collection and less of an active hobby. I need to develop a closet cleaning hobby! 
 

I happen to have two incredible moms, so I have experienced firsthand that there are many ways that people create families.
