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.

Never have I met a physician like Dr Shimamoto who is not only EXTREMELY knowledgeble, with excellent clinical skills, but also has a heart and compassion for his patients. I had extremely difficult sinus issues, he worked through the symptoms, and ultimately found a solution. His PA's are great, as are the office staff. A wonderful practice that truly makes you feel like you are part of a family. Thank you Santan Allergy for the excellent care!!!

Dr. Shimamoto and his nurse Kathy were both wonderful. I met Kathy first and she put me at ease when I was having so much trouble with the breathing test and continued to be very kind through the rest of the appointment. Then I met Dr, Shimamoto who was also very kind and caring. He listened to me and understood how frustrated I was with being sick so much. He said he would get to the bottom of it. I appreciated that he showed concern for me and wanted to begin a plan that would get me better.

Dr. Shimamoto is EXCELLENT along with his staff John Gedell, PAC and others. My personal physician did not catch my bacterial infection&other issues. I struggled to breath. Went to an Allergist, 1st time in my life. SAN TAN ALLERGY & ASTHMA, Dr. Shimamoto put me under a battery of tests and quickly found several problems. After 3 weeks of medication and treatment I feel much better. They all have a very professional manner, kind, listening and awesome follow-up & costs are very reasonable.

Fantastic, caring, intuitive Doctor, with refreshing bedside manners. I am in the health field and it is wonderful to see a Doctor who cares, is informative, who is able to relay information in lay terms, who clearly loves what he does and does it exceedingly well.
