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.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Dr. Shay is one of the few doctors today who REALLY CARES about his patients and doesn't rush you through an appointment. He actually LISTENS, and he has helped me so very much over the past 30 years. He is a rare 'gem' of a doctor, and I really appreciate his caring and thorough ways. I've followed him to 4 different practices over the years, and I am blessed to have him as my PCP.

I would surely recommend Dr. Shay. I have been seeing him for the last 5 or 6 years,and I feel he is one of the most concerned doctors I have ever seen. He will spend extra time with you if needed, listen very closely to what you have to say also. I will give him a 5 STAR!

I am a local chiropractor and any time someone asks me who I prefer for medical care, I always recommend Dr. Shay. He has extensive knowledge not just of mainstream medicine, but also alternative therapies and works well with patients where they are. He does not belittle them when they ask questions, and has gotten a great number of patients well from conditions most struggle with for a lifetime. I wish more doctors practiced like he does!
