I never left feeling upset or confused about where I was in the process. I feel like she did everything she could to make my FET a success. I started at a different fertility clinic and my experience from the first clinic to Dr Zarek was a much better fit for me...I only had one embryo to try to transfer and I feel like Dr Zarek used every trick she had to make sure our one attempt was successful. I had a lot of questions a long the way and I felt like they were always answered in a timely manner and respectfully. I was never made to feel dumb and I really appreciated that.Dr Zarek was very knowledgeable and competent in the infertility field, providing top-tier patient centered care, which us feel seen, supported, and cared for throughout the…Dr Zarek was very knowledgeable and competent in the infertility field, providing top-tier patient centered care, which us feel seen, supported, and cared for throughout the process.

I thought we had a great report with each other so it made our doctor-patient relationship much easier. If I did have an issue, then we were able to respectfully discuss it. One instance was with the lack of communication by a nurse. Dr. Zarek even directly asked for my feedback a few times, which made me feel valued. It impressed me as well that she was willing to learn an work on things for continuous improvement. I have never experienced that with any doctor before. She gave her phone number to contact anytime. However, I tried to refrain and go to the nurses out of respect for her position as a doctor. It was good knowing I could reach out though.She [Dr. Shvetha Zarek] was so kind. A lot of doctors pushed us away because we were young and had only been struggling with conceiving for a year. She never made us feel bad. She…She [Dr. Shvetha Zarek] was so kind. A lot of doctors pushed us away because we were young and had only been struggling with conceiving for a year. She never made us feel bad. She was emphatic with how we were feeling and walked us through all the steps. She talked options to make sure it was affordable. She was always checking in on me to make sure I was mentally and physically okay at all times. She gave us our beautiful baby girl, we are forever grateful for her.What stood out most to me was Dr. Zarek’s availability, attention, and openness to emerging treatments.

As a microbiologist, I particularly appreciated her use of tools like vaginal microbiome analysis—something often overlooked but so important to reproductive health. Throughout treatment, I could reach her by text, and she adjusted my plan based on my preferences and history, suggesting new options I hadn’t encountered before.[Dr. Shvetha Zarek] never rushed us and took the time to explain everything that was needed...is super helpful and doesn’t make things feel weird or uncomfortable...During the IUI…[Dr. Shvetha Zarek] never rushed us and took the time to explain everything that was needed...is super helpful and doesn’t make things feel weird or uncomfortable...During the IUI treatment we had to take a couple visits to her office to monitor the follicles...really knew what she was talking aboutDr. Zarek was kind, compassionate, and helped figure out a game plan!

Not only to get pregnant but also to STAY pregnant which is so hard to find doctors who are willing to try to that. Currently 11 weeks pregnant and everything is looking great...Due to blocked tubes, ectopic pregnancy’s were a risk so we were tossing around the idea of IVF. Thankfully I got pregnant on my own and with the help of progesterone, prednisone, and lovenox I was able to stay pregnant!Dr. Zarek is an absolutely phenomenal doctor!

We felt very loved and cared for during our year long journey with her. She was always there for us and we will return for our future pregnancies. We have referred many friends to her and they all feel the same way and really enjoy working with her...We switched up IUI meds a few times to see if it generated different outcomes.
