Patient Testimonial
I began my own egg-freezing journey as an OB/GYN resident. Looking back 10 years later, now 38 years old, engaged, and ready to start my own family, I’m relieved to have frozen my eggs. At the same time, I feel obligated to give back and address the toll that surgical training has on women.

SGF in Alpharetta is fantastic. The office is beautiful and brand new. The office and clinical staff are friendly, they make you feel comfortable and they are very accommodating. I have never had to wait long for my appointment.

I have only wonderful things to say about Dr. Gay and his staff at the Alpharetta location. Knowledgeable, compassionate, and professional… I could not have asked for better care.

Dr. Swelstad has somehow perfected the difficult balance of being thoroughly educated and up to date in his field and patient and kind enough to make you feel important to him.

Dr. Libby was just amazing. We had a long journey and she was right there with us in the trenches. She was our third fertility doctor. She thought outside the box, was willing to try new things, was open to our questions, and used her team to help us.

I went through IVF with Dr. Humm. I felt heard, comforted, and comfortable the whole way. The support staff were beyond fantastic and turned what would have been a scary experience, into something that my husband and I never felt like we were navigating alone.

Q&A

As a former infertility patient, I know the struggles our patients are facing. I wanted to be the provider I wish I had when I was a patient.

Most sunny weekends, you will find me on our boat. I love to soak up the sun, listen to good music or just the waves, and spend time with friends. I enjoy reading, usually lighthearted comedies or mysteries.

I get up every workday at 3 a.m. to hit the gym. I’m a lifelong Cubs fan who celebrated the 2016 World Series Champs while on call (and delivered a baby mid-game).
