This created an atmosphere where my wife could be more relaxed for very stressful procedures. The communication was always prompt, professional, and kind even during stressful situations. Overall Shady Grove offered superior results, service, and was far more pleasant than our previous provider.Fertility clinic

From the very first appointment, I felt a real difference in how everything is handled. There’s a calm, organized, and genuinely caring atmosphere that immediately put me at ease during what has been an emotional and stressful journey. I always feel heard, never rushed, and everything is explained in a way that makes even the most overwhelming parts feel manageable. My doctor, Dr. Mitchell, has been wonderful—kind, steady, and incredibly reassuring. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes me feel like I’m truly being cared for as a person, not just a patient. All of the other doctors I’ve met have also been excellent—professional, attentive, and compassionate. Every interaction has felt thoughtful and reassuring, which has made a big difference throughout this process. Nurse Meredith has been especially amazing—warm, responsive, and so supportive. She always gets back to me quickly and has a way of making stressful updates feel calmer and easier to handle. The entire nursing team has been consistently kind, organized, and compassionate. I also want to mention PA Ellie Andres, who has been exceptional—so kind, patient, and supportive at every step. The anesthesia team was also outstanding, making me feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout procedures. The sonographers and phlebotomy staff deserve special mention as well—they have all been incredibly gentle, kind, and reassuring. Their warmth, patience, and professionalism made ultrasounds and blood draws much less stressful than I expected. The embryologists were also wonderful—professional, detail-oriented, and reassuring. The front desk and billing team have also been just as lovely—friendly, helpful, responsive and efficient, which makes all the logistics feel much less overwhelming. Overall, it feels like a team that truly works together with care and respect for patients. I’m very grateful to be in their care during this journey. THANK YOU SHADY GROVE TEAM!

Not only were our IVF results incredibly disappointing, but the clinic's administrative and billing departments are an absolute nightmare. Dealing with poor clinical outcomes is hard enough, but SGF compounded that stress with gross incompetence. They completely botched our billing by submitting claims to Carrot (who they know doesn't accept direct clinic claims), misverified our insurance (and it's in-network!), and provided incorrect information throughout the process. Worst of all, SGF completely shields their billing department from patients. When they make a massive financial mistake, you cannot speak to the people who can actually fix it. Instead, you are forced to deal with "financial educators" who give factually incorrect information, make impossible promises, and constantly pass the buck. If you want a clinic that takes accountability, communicates clearly, and doesn't add massive administrative stress to an already difficult medical journey, go somewhere else. SGF's billing is a nightmareMy experience at this clinic was very disappointing, and I ultimately decided to transfer my care elsewhere because I lost confidence in the level of communication and oversight…My experience at this clinic was very disappointing, and I ultimately decided to transfer my care elsewhere because I lost confidence in the level of communication and oversight during treatment. Throughout my time here, I experienced multiple issues that made the process feel stressful and disorganized. I received conflicting instructions regarding medication dosing leading into an IUI cycle, including guidance related to progesterone timing. Although I discussed the issue with the doctor beforehand, I left feeling that my concerns were not fully acknowledged. There were also administrative and lab-related mistakes that added unnecessary stress. On one occasion, a blood draw was mislabeled, and I was asked to repeat testing at an outside lab at my own expense, with no clear explanation as to why the additional cost would fall on me. Another upsetting moment occurred right before an IUI procedure, when a staff member mistakenly stated that two sperm vials had been thawed instead of one. Since we have a limited number of vials available, this caused significant panic before they later clarified it was a labeling mix-up. I also felt dismissed when I raised concerns about IUI timing during a holiday weekend and whether earlier timing might improve our chances. Rather than feeling supported, I felt like my questions were inconvenient. Overall, I personally experienced communication issues, errors, and a lack of attention to detail that made an already emotionally difficult process much harder. I would not recommend this clinic based on my experience.The whole team at Shady Grove has been amazing.

They have been so thoughtful and caring through both joy and loss, and we are so grateful for all of them. I have already recommended them to multiple friends.

My husband and I were nervous going into this process and not sure what to expect but Dr. Bressler and the entire staff at SGF were nothing short of amazing the entire process. From answering all of our questions, guiding us with their knowledge and expertise, to comforting us when cycles didn’t go as planned and finally to celebrating with us when we were finally successful. They started as our care team but truly ended up becoming family. I got excited to see them at each appointment and missed them when we no longer had to go in (though it was for the best possible reason!). They always put me at ease and I always felt safe to express any emotions I was feeling. It was a long journey but we now have our little one in our arms and nothing can beat that feeling. We owe Shady Grove everything for helping us to start our family. I will 100% recommend them to anyone experiencing fertility challenges!We had an excellent experience with Shady Grove Fertility.

From the very beginning, the team took the time to thoroughly evaluate what was affecting my ability to get pregnant and ultimately diagnosed me with PCOS. They explained everything clearly, provided detailed information about my treatment options, and created a step-by-step plan that made the process feel much less overwhelming. One other thing I appreciated was how transparent they were about costs. At every stage, they kept us informed about what to expect financially, which helped us feel prepared throughout the journey. Most importantly, their care and expertise led to a successful cycle, and I’m so happy to say that I am now pregnant. We are incredibly grateful for the compassion, professionalism, and guidance we received from the entire team. I would highly recommend Shady Grove Fertility to anyone navigating fertility challenges.Dr. Mersereau has always been attentive and gentle throughout the difficult process that is infertility.

She handled our family with care from the beginning, when we decided not to pursue options, to the time we decided to move forward. She and her team listened, earnestly cheered us on, and were willing to try any research-backed solutions available! She, Dr. Bressler, and the whole care team were instrumental in growing our family. Hands down, I recommend SGF Cary to anyone struggling to make their dreams of having children a reality!We’re coming up on a year since my first transfer, and I’ve been meaning to write this review.

Now, nearly a year later, our beautiful baby girl was born this past March, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the team at SGF in Cary, NC! We wouldn’t be here without them. Every visit started with warmth and compassion. The PAs and nurses are incredible. I especially looked forward to my “you got this girl” hugs before my morning appointments. My husband and I were also very happy with Dr. Mitchell. She was consistently knowledgeable, supportive, and kind throughout our entire journey. Thank you Dr. Mitchell! Infertility can be incredibly difficult, and after experiencing a loss at the end of 2025 following an IUI cycle, those small moments of care meant everything to us. The team was also extremely responsive! Our questions were often answered right away, either by phone or through the portal, which brought so much reassurance during a stressful time. We can’t say enough good things about SGF Cary. We are so thankful for their care and support.My husband and I were referred to Dr. Bressler and her team after trying to conceive for a year with no success.

We ended up going the IVF route after a few failed IUIs, which ended up giving us our beautiful son who is now 11 weeks old. We curated a treatment plan specific to my husband and I, and we didn’t feel like just another patient. Dr. Bressler and everyone on her team is amazing. All the doctors and nurses at Shady Grove are so nice and caring!Everything was great from our experience.

We appreciated how streamlined the process was, how polite and professional the front staff is, how clean the office and treatment areas always are, and the elite organization and prompt reply for online messages. Dr Mitchell had an effective treatment plan that was clearly communicated to us and helped us to achieve our goal of growing our family. We will be eternally grateful to her and her team! Our PA, Ellie, was exceptional and so compassionate and encouraging at all of our ultrasounds. She was always a ray of sunshine for us though the challenging and arduous journey. Even the lab draw team was great- very encouraging and positive each visit. Well done, everyone!We are beyond grateful for choosing Shady Grove for our IVF journey.

IVF initially felt so intimidating, but the team made the entire process feel manageable. From our first consultation, we consistently felt that we were in capable hands and continued to feel supported every step of the way. Everyone was so warm and empathetic! Brianna always greeted us warmly at the front desk, instantly helping to ease any nerves. Ellie and Kimberly, who performed my ultrasounds, were not only professional but also full of helpful tips and reassuring guidance throughout the process. A very special thank you goes to Dr. Mitchell and her nurse, Meredith. Meredith was incredibly responsive, always quick to answer any questions and provide clarity when we needed it most. Dr. Mitchell is both brilliant and deeply compassionate. Whenever I found myself researching IVF protocols online, I felt reassured knowing her approach was consistently thorough and clearly grounded in extensive research. We were fortunate to use secondary insurance throughout our treatment and never experienced any issues with authorizations or billing. These ladies are so great! I wholeheartedly recommend Shady Grove to anyone navigating their fertility journey. We graduated to our OB yesterday, and while we are excited for this next chapter, we will truly miss the Shady Grove at Cary team. Thank you all for helping start our family! -Amanda and KirkAs we get closer to welcoming our little one, we’ve been reflecting on everything it took to get here.

My husband and I are incredibly thankful for our experience at Shady Grove. From our very first appointment to the day we graduated, Dr. Mitchell, Ellie, the Briannas at the front desk, and the phlebotomy team were nothing short of kind, supportive, and professional. We always felt informed, cared for, and truly supported every step of the way. We’ve already shared our experience with others, and we’ll continue recommending Shady Grove to anyone going through a similar journey. We’re so grateful to have been in such great hands, and we would absolutely trust Shady Grove again for our future journey.My husband and I have a large family but did not feel we were done yet so we did embryo adoption.

The nurses and Dr B were very supportive and understanding of our Catholic faith and that we could not do IVF but could adopt a little snowflake soul. We now have a baby girl who is a little miracle. She has big brothers and sisters who love her more than words. I have shared our story of embryo adoption with many people who never heard of it and now want to learn more! What a life saving option for these little souls waiting to be adopted. Shady Grove has amazing nurses, communication, staff, and Dr. B is wonderful. We would love to adopt one more little soul and we will go back to them.I can't say enough good things about Shady Grove. Everyone that I encountered at the facility was warm and welcoming.

I never felt rushed or felt like "just a number". I do really feel like my care was individualized. We had the pleasure of working primarily with Dr. Mersereau, Alli and Ellie for my fertility journey. But overall, all the providers there are wonderful to work with. We graduated from the clinic this week and can't wait to come back with updates, and hopefully a round 2 in the future! :)I cannot say enough good things about Shady Grove.

I am 43 and have struggled with fertility since my twenties. My ex and I were never able to get pregnant, but becoming a mom is something I have never been able to let go of. After a referral from my OBGYN, I went to Shady Grove to see if an egg retrieval was still possible at my age. I met with Dr. Mitchell, who was honest about the statistics but said it was still worth trying. The expectations were low because of my age, but I needed to know I had done everything I could. Within a day of starting ovarian stimulation, my body began reacting and continued to do so for several days. I worried something was wrong and contacted the clinic. They brought me in for an ultrasound. The nurse practitioner explained that it sounded like many follicles were responding well to the hormones, and the ultrasound confirmed that was the case. A few days later, I had the retrieval. I was incredibly nervous given my history and the uncertainty surrounding my ability to have a child. The team made me feel comfortable and walked me through each step, which helped calm my anxiety. When I woke up, I was told they had retrieved 31 eggs. The next day, I received a call letting me know that 23 were mature and successfully frozen. I never imagined my retrieval would be this successful. I am deeply grateful to Shady Grove. I cannot recommend Dr. Mitchell, Nurse Kim, and the entire staff enough.SGF Cary is absolutely impeccable!

From the second you walk through the front doors to any and all procedures you might have, every single person you encounter meets you with kindness and care and compassion. You can ask them absolutely anything and it will always be met with kindness. I am so incredibly grateful to have found this amazing clinic to walk with us on this very difficult journey. I literally cannot say enough good things about them! I would recommend that anyone walking this difficult journey reach out to this incredible clinic.I believe our fertility success was largely in part that Shady Grove has some of the best doctors/PAs/nurses in the area, has top tier technology that makes the patient life and…I believe our fertility success was largely in part that Shady Grove has some of the best doctors/PAs/nurses in the area, has top tier technology that makes the patient life and professionals' jobs easier, and has decades of experience built into this provider. I decided to look for a Fertility Clinic after an ectopic pregnancy and a year of TTC. A friend who had already been through the fertility journey recommended Shady Grove as the "Cadillac" of clinics- which I couldn't agree more. I will start this review with highlighting the facility. It is brand new and very well designed. The building stands alone and has plenty of parking. There was never any traffic trying to get to the appointments. The wait room was sometimes packed, but there was always enough seating for everyone. My husband always mentioned how he felt as ease knowing everyone in the wait room was going through similar experiences. I cannot say enough about the amazing the staff. The front desk ladies were always a pleasure to see and talk to. The phlebotomists and nurses were so so so sweet. They see so many patients daily and somehow still made me feel special. My initial visit with Dr. Bressler was definitely overwhelming, but she took the time to answer my questions and spell everything out. I knew I was in good hands. Finally, I wanted to give a special show out to PA Ellie and Nurse Stephanie. They always answered my questions with respect and care. From a technology standpoint, Shady Grove is top tier. Their patient portal was efficient and easy to use. It was equipped with a calendar to keep up with appointments and medications- a true life saver! They had up-to-date online modules to go over procedures and fine details (they made learning fun). All of the equipment in the facility are new and clean. I am truly going to miss Shady Grove after "graduating". I wish I could continue my OB care with Dr. Bressler and her team! I recommend Shady Grove Fertility to anyone who is looking for a state-of-the-art facility with a highly experienced and caring medical team.I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Shady Grove Fertility in Raleigh.

From the very beginning, I felt supported, seen, and genuinely cared for. Working with Dr. Bressler and our nurse coordinator, Stephanie, has been an absolute gift. They truly took the time to get to know us and understand our unique fertility journey, which made what can be an overwhelming process feel so much more manageable and human. Every interaction felt thoughtful, compassionate, and collaborative. As a military family that has been on this fertility journey for over five years, we felt especially cared for and understood. They were mindful of the unique stressors, uncertainty, and logistics that come with military life and long-term fertility treatment, and consistently made us feel supported every step of the way. I always felt like they were in our corner, answering questions thoroughly, checking in, and making sure we felt comfortable and informed at every step. Their warmth and professionalism made a huge difference during such an emotionally vulnerable time. Honestly, I wish I could stay with them for my entire pregnancy. I am so grateful for the care we received and would wholeheartedly recommend Shady Grove Raleigh to anyone going through this journey.The entire team is very friendly, personal and great to work with.

Many great things to say about this place and the journey with them. From the front desk staff, to the nurses and my doctor. Each and very person so caring. Nurse D was great at always getting my blood drawn, she was the best. Ellie was great with my ultrasounds and very nice. Allie was my nurse, who was awesome and always kept me informed. Dr. Mersereau was great. I would recommend Shady Grove. They listen and they care. Everyone was great and made the experience easy as possible! Thanks!The Shady Grove Clinic in Cary has been exceptional in their care from the start of my journey with diagnosing the cause of my multiple losses to now nearing the end of my first…The Shady Grove Clinic in Cary has been exceptional in their care from the start of my journey with diagnosing the cause of my multiple losses to now nearing the end of my first trimester from our first successful IVF transfer. Dr. Bressler & her team have been an absolute pleasure to work with the entire time. With Dr. B, I always felt heard - which I cannot emphasize how rare & important this was. Any questions that I had were answered thoughtfully and empathetically. Throughout the process, all updates were delivered professionally, timely & with care. All appointments were punctual and the staff were consistently warm & attentative. If you're experiencing fertility issues and/or multiple losses, I highly recommend reaching out to the Shady Grove clinic to start care. I have nothing but positive affirmations to share with Dr. B, Ellie, Rae, Brianna, Kenyatta, Michelle, etc. - the full team at Shady Grove. Thank you all for helping Ryan, I & our cats to grow our family!I came to SGF after being unsuccessful at another popular clinic in Raleigh and I am so glad I did!

My personal story later as I want to leave an objective review of SGF to help other families choose the right clinic for them. These are some of the things that SGF does differently that really set them apart. I never felt rushed - from my initial appointment with Dr Bressler to all procedures and visits, all my questions were answered in detail. At SGF you are assigned a dedicated nurse - she knows your case and will keep you updated. The other clinic I always had a different nurse call me, most of them I never met and I often felt like they were instructed to squash questions or concerns I wanted to bring up with the doctor. Dr Bressler called me herself as often as she could with important updates about my IVF cycle. All the monitoring appointments are with doctors or the physician assistant. Plus an additional nurse in the room. This gave me a lot of confidence as to how my cycle was monitored and I got to meet Dr Mersereau, Dr Mithchell and Ellie who are also wonderful. Most other practices just have nurses do the monitoring, it’s always someone new and they can’t answer any questions. If you are paying the same for monitoring, wouldn’t you rather have a doctor present to review your results and progress in real time? All the clinical staff I met were extremely kind - every single person at SGF did everything possible during my IVF cycle to make me feel cared for and safe. I felt so safe and in great hands both during my retrieval and transfer. If you get nervous about procedures like me, you will love it here! I wish that all doctors and medical staff everywhere showed this level of caring! Another major benefit is the place is brand new - spacious and shiny! The second floor - the lab and where the procedures are done is impressive- state of the art and immaculate. As far as insurance, billing and paperwork- the reality is that this part of the process is never easy. I’ve been to four different fertility clinics and overall my experience with the billing department was similar or better at SGF. No matter the outcome, SGF deserves 5 stars and I would confidently recommend them as the top choice to my friends and family. Now how many stars do you leave the doctor and her dream team to thank them for your miracle baby? And they did it on the first try, after me going through three IVF cycles at another clinic with poor results. I came to SGF not believing anymore - after 1.5 years of trying. I left pregnant at 42.5 years old. Everything was different and better from the beginning. To start Dr Bressler was a breath of fresh air - she believed in the possibility of success when I no longer did. She took a different approach to my treatment - the approach the other clinic avoided and didn’t recommend for me. Well it turns out she was right! I had my best egg retrieval, made the most and healthiest embryos, and ultimately got pregnant on the very first cycle at SGF. The treatment protocol Dr B prescribed to was also easier on my body. If your situation sounds similar, do yourself a big favor and go to SGF first.I can't say enough good things about Dr. Mersereau and the team at SGF Cary. .

The entire team has been so caring, compassionate, and attentive throughout my journey. They never make you feel like you’re a bother, no matter how many questions you have (and I’ve had plenty!). Every interaction feels personal — they truly take the time to listen and make sure you’re comfortable and informed every step of the way. Appointments are easy to schedule, and they always get you in quickly. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and stay on top of everything to make the process as smooth as possible. I’ve always felt like I was their only patient, which says a lot about how dedicated they are. Their after-hours line has also been such a comfort — knowing that someone is there for you, even outside of regular office hours, makes such a difference. I’m so grateful to have found a clinic that not only provides excellent medical care but also truly supports you emotionally through the process. I will always be thankful to SGF Cary for helping me grow my little family!My husband James and I started our initial journey at Carolina Conceptions Fertility.

We did not feel valued or listened to there. My friend Jenna in VA used Shady Grove Fertility and recommended we try them as she was 36 and had her baby in 11/2024. I can fore sure say Shady Grove Fertility listened to us, assisted us and guided us on what we thought was impossible to achieve was a baby of our own. The receptionists, lab techs even my favorite lab tech Whitney there, Stephanie our nurse who even anwsered our call after hours while she was at a concert (Now again going the extra mile to answer a call) and our doctor Dr. Bressler were all so easy to talk and have great personalities so it wasn't a scary environment but it felt like being at home and being taken care of without a second thought. The thought of caring SGF are a true family that truly shows how Shady Grove Fertility goes 10,000 miles more to help you any kind of way they can. James, me and our family are so thankful to them to be welcoming our miracle son at 41 years old for me in May 2026.

The front desk staff, nurses and my incredible case manager, Ali, are all exceptional. To them you are not a number, and they all want you to achieve a healthy pregnancy. They are always smiling and have such big hearts. Dr. Mersereau is kind, caring and truly listens so she can best craft a personal plan that fits you. The whole staff here is routing for you and you never feel rushed in and out the door like you can at other clinics. For anyone who has to endure the hard and lonely road of infertility, the staff at SGF will do their best to walk through it with you and be your cheerleaders.Working with Shady Grove Fertility in Cary, NC has been an incredible experience.
