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 highly recommend Dr Shaffer to anyone who is serious about their health. She goes the extra mile to correct any issue that you might have and the expertise to do it correctly. Very down to earth.

Dr. Shaffer has been my physician for over twenty years. Throughout the years she has consistently taken time to carefully listen to my health concerns, thoroughly explain the diagnoses, and create successful treatment plans. I would recommend Dr. Shaffer if you want a physician who listens, shows compassion and will put you on the road to recovery.

I would highly recommend Dr. Shaffer. She is a very calm doctor and I am very comfortable with her. She listens and seems to be an excellent diagnostic doctor. During this pandemic, doctor appointments are very scary, having a calm, kind doctor is such a relief.

I trust Dr. Shaffer as my PCP. She always takes care of my medication needs. She delivered my first born and only child! My daughter now drives herself for doctor appointments with Dr. Shaffer. I think that it is cool that my daughter is now attending the same college that Dr. Shaffer had attended! Go Roos!

Dr Shaffer has been my primary doctor for many years and I am very happy with her. She always has time for me, listens to my questions and concerns. She explains pending procedures so well, and I appreciate that. She got me through shingles, pneumonia twice, weight gain and loss. Dr Shaffer is a thorough doctor with a kind approach. I highly recommend her.

Upbeat and positive, Dr. Shaffer sized up the situation immediately. Diagnosis even included external events that caused the allergic rash I'd never had before. She was patient and flexible explaining various options for treatment. Pretty darn impressed, I was! P.S./Spoiler alert: All pet lovers...look no further for sure for a doc you'll consider yourself quite lucky to find and be taken care of by.

If you are looking for an easy to talk to dr who listens and pays attention to your concerns, this is who you are looking for. She’s intelligent, yet mirrors her info to your knowledge base (doesn’t talk over your head, yet never talks down to you).
