Dr. Sweet was honest, upfront, and made sure to go over everything with us. When we had questions we were able to come in and sit down with him and go through everything together. He made us feel seen and heard especially when going over our options and not forcing us to do something we did not want to do. We felt like we had a great plan in place and everything worked out perfectly. His team was great as well! You can tell it takes a fully knowledgeable team to keep everything on track especially when egg retrievals are done on the weekend and nothing stands in the way. After graduating at 8 weeks Dr. Sweet was so happy for us - hugged me - and I felt like he really cared and was so happy to have help us get to where we were at especially after I cried several times in his office when the process of fertility makes you feel defected. He made it known that if I ever needed anything or had any issues to contact him and his office and he would be sure to see me asap. I felt like his office/clinic was a safe space because him and his team have seen so many people that have gone through similar situations and have seen them go onto have a successful pregnancy so I felt like I was at home in his care and in his offie with his team. Thank you for everything!

So far, my experience with Dr. Sweet and his staff has been amazing. Dr. Sweet is very blunt and to the point, which I like. I don't like things sugar-coated, and he is not the one to do that. I have 100% trust in him and his staff. Hopefully will be able to start treatments in the next couple of months and be on the road to having my miracle.

Friends of ours recommended Dr.Sweet’s office after they welcomed their twin boys via IVF a few years ago. Taking their advice, I planned to setup a visit with the physician. When I initially called to make an appointment, the receptionist who I spoke with really rubbed me the wrong way, enough to make an appointment with a different office. After going through multiple IUIs and getting a few red flags from that physician/office, we decided to give Dr. Sweet’s office another go. To my surprise, when I called to make another appointment, a different receptionist answered the phone. This staff member was sweet as can be and helped me schedule my consultation with Dr.Sweet. Although delaying treatment was extremely difficult, I knew seeking a second opinion was for the best. We needed to know that we trusted the doctor who would help us create our family and after our first meeting with Dr.Sweet I knew we made the right decision. He sat and went over every single detail of my chart. He asked questions and made suggestions that no other physician had brought up. He listened to every question I had and explained the answers in full detail. He was always patient with us and we always felt like he was on our team. Not only is he extremely smart and well-spoken but he’s also friendly and personable. Sometimes he gives you the information straight forward but I truly love that about him. Once someone has reached this point in their infertility journey, you don’t need someone who is going to beat around the bush. He will definitely not do that.
We switched to Dr.Sweet’s office in May 2021. Originally our egg retrieval was scheduled for September 2021 however due to family engagements we had to push it to November 2021. By January 2022 we were pregnant for the first time EVER. I’m currently 17 weeks with our little boy and none of this would have been possible without Dr.Sweet and his team. I’m so happy we trusted them with this journey.
If you’re researching IVF clinics and not sure where to turn, my recommendation to give Dr.Sweet a try.

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for three years without any help...obviously did not work. My regular OBGYN suggested Dr. Sweet. He told me that Dr. Sweet is the best in town and now we know why. We are currently 8weeks 5days pregnant. He knows his stuff...he is very straight forward and gives his honest opinion and solutions and if you follow them you will get pregnant.

Dr. Sweet is wonderful. Very knowledgeable with sound judgment...and compassion and humor! I had surgery for the first time in November 2020 and Dr. Sweet was incredibly attentive keeping me informed and visiting every day (I stayed a week) and also was an incredible advocate for my care in the hospital. I highly highly recommend.

Dr. Sweet and staff were amazing. They helped us navigate through a scary and unknown time. Dr. Sweet is knowledgeable, concise, and funny ( in a dry sense of humor way). He takes a very direct path to get you to your end game. I believe that his honesty and directness allowed us to make an informed decision and we are honored to be one of the couples that he has helped conceive a child. We recommend any person who is interested in having a baby, reach out to him.

Dr. Sweet is brilliant. He was able to diagnose an issue my regular gyno was unable to, but also found other fertility issues that hadn't been addressed before. He basically saved my fighting chance at having kids before it was too late!

Dr. Sweet and staff are amazing. I was a little skeptical at first, as I didn’t know what to expect with a fertility specialist. His knowledge and expertise made our experience a positive one; not to mention a positive pregnancy result! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much Dr. Sweet! You have turned our dream into a reality. We definitely recommend him and his practice. A tip/advise to all current and future patients, listen to him carefully, most, if not all your questions will be answered when he talks to you. I personally loved how effective and prompt communication was with the MAs - Thaylen and Erin were amazing as well. Though we’re overwhelmed with joy from our pregnancy, I am honestly sad I had to leave them and find an OB. Simply the best! Should we ever need help again, we will for sure go back!
