My sincere thanks to Dr. Stetson for all that he had done to fulfill our dream. We are thrilled to know that we are going to have twins in June. If I could I would give him ten stars and they wouldn’t be enough. An amazing and supporting doctor. We highly recommend him. Giorgio and Diana Melodia

Excellent experience with Dr Stetson at Tree of Life. We had been through many, many fertility procedures and protocols the last 3 years before meeting Dr Stetson and are thrilled to say we are expecting a little girl in April! He’s helped make our dreams come true. Very thorough and so easy to reach with any questions or concerns any day or time. A wonderful bedside manner during the procedures as well. I can’t recommend him enough.Kelli Kester Chau
