Patient Testimonial
Dr. Shah helped complete our family and answer our prayers. After his medical attention and direction, we now have a beautiful and healthy little boy.

Dr. Romanski filled us with so much hope when we needed it the most. Him and his team are absolutely amazing and hands on. I have never felt more cared for at a practice before. Highly recommend him for any fertility needs.

Dr. Barnard was wonderful to work with! I appreciated her care, patience, support, and calming demeanor. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and compassionate. While this process can be very intimidating and overwhelming, I felt better knowing that I had her on my side.

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.

Q&A

I love women’s health and focused on that area in my graduate program. I chose to work in reproductive medicine because of the opportunity to be a part of a patient’s family-building journey. I take joy in so many aspects of my job, especially being able to provide education and support to fertility patients in different phases of treatment. I feel I have a unique role to be present with them as they go through difficult circumstances as well as the chance to celebrate their successful moments. After working so many years in this field, I have also gotten to see such an evolution in all that we can offer patients for improved outcomes. It has certainly been a privilege to experience so many growing families and help encourage them along their journey. 

I enjoy staying active and spending time with family and friends. Tennis and pickleball have been great outdoor activities that have kept me busy on the weekends. I also love music and attending local concerts–Country music and 80’s cover bands are some of my favorites! Most of all I really appreciate time with my family whether it is cheering on my daughters’ sports teams, playing board games, or traveling to different parts of the country to build new memories together. 

I appreciate true crime mysteries and watching the next episode of a “Whodunnit?” show. I love getting to know the characters and plot and deciphering the evidence until I have finally guessed the villain!
