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’ve had back pain for 6 months that has constantly gotten worse. I’ve seen Shaw over 4 times now and he has all the imaging of X-rays and mri. He diagnosed me with sacroilitis and the pt the hospital gave me made things much worse. He and Wilmington health are the worst healthcare professionals I’ve ever seen in my life. I’ve been to many doctors in different states for orthopedic reasons being an athlete growing up and suffering injuries. I’ve never gone to someone so incompetent and unable to give any reasoning for the injury I suffered 6 months ago.

Very thorough
Mr. Shaw gave me a lot of his time despite running behind with his schedule. I felt I got a good exam and then very complete discussion of my problem and what my options were. I required a joint injection which was painless & feel that I received professional and competent care.

David doesn't waver. Always trying to do his best for the patient. He is one who listens to me and wants to know if his treatment is helping, He offers plans for future treatment or alternatives if he thinks they will benefit. I couldn't be more satisfied with my visits to Dave and Ermerg-Ortho. Mary
