I'm not sure who this person is, but if she was the lady that did my Saline this time around, she was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable during the process.

Shauna is AMAZING. She is equally personable and professional and connects with patients on a human level. She made a process that can be physically demanding as much as emotionally overwhelming feel manageable. From consultation to the review post my fourth round, I felt supported and seen. She is the best!

Excellent bedside manner, very efficient without sacrificing quality, and she pauses to ask me about my pain levels during the procedure (unheard of in my pre-NM fertility care)

Incredible provider. Very calming presence. We were fortunate to have good news for each of our encounters, but I suspect that she would be a very caring person if things were not going as planned. She is one of the main reasons (along with the embryology lab) that I would still chose northwestern after this terrible process.

Shauna is truly exceptional as a care provider. She listens with empathy, addresses every question thoroughly, and shares medical information without judgement. She is a model for practitioners who treat infertility. Going through fertility treatments is such an emotional and physically demanding journey. Having people like Shauna as a trusted medical professional I can count on has made a world of difference. I hope she is recognized for her excellence and character. This practice is so lucky to have her.

I was going to call in a review of Shauna but how timely that this survey was sent to me! Shauna is a treasure to your establishment and I hope she gets the recognition she deserves. I work as a PA and I know how it can really throw off your schedule when even one person comes in late. I was scheduled to be 30 min early but my gps took me out of the way and before I realized it, it was too late and I ended up being 20 minutes late to my appointment. I was completely embarrassed, because I know what position that puts her and her whole team in. I drove 2 hours for my appointment and she never hesitated about squeezing me in, even if it did throw her whole day off. When she saw how upset I was about to the whole situation, she took extra time (extra time she probably didn't have) to comfort me and get to know me and my story. She showed so much compassion and empathy and truly made me feel like I was among family/longtime friend. I can't say enough good about how she treated me and I really do hope she sees this and her direct supervisor as well, because they need to know what treasure they have!
