Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I made the mistake of coming to this facility hoping for treatment after they told my husband they are treated people in my same situation with success. That apparently was a LIE. Dr Schaefer had me in and out in less than 8 minutes. He made no attempts to physically treat me or point me in the direction of someone/where that could. This facility and physician seem to care less about treating their patients and more about just collecting their insurance money.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Schaefer II?
My sinuses are much worse since he did surgery a few years ago! It's like I never recovered. My nose whistles, loud, and I have constant stuff stuck in my head and a cough from all the thick crud. When I get a cold now, it takes a month or more to get over. Drainage is so bad it disturbs my sleep much more than before hand. I don't know what he did but something isn't right
