Patient Testimonial
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!

I absolutely love the Beaumont SGF location. Everyone in that office is passionate about helping you start your family. They have become like a family to my husband and I, and we could not be more satisfied with our care from them.

Dr. Schnell and her staff are absolutely amazing, curious and friendly. The nurses that we worked with answered all of our questions and were excited to have helped us get pregnant. I’d highly recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Davis was great! He has such a calm demeanor and is super informative. He was friendly and outgoing at all of my appointments and answered all my questions. I felt very confident and safe in his care.

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).
