Patient Reviews
Jan 20, 2024
Dr Shaffer was very pleasant, attentive and informative. He clearly explained my conditions and what my options are for dealing with them, and how dealing with them is in my best interests. Further, he’s completely aware that further proof will be needed by my insurance that the dizziness/instability is not an ear problem before I will be allowed to see a neurologist so we agreed a referral to the balance lab was my best course. It is wonderful to work with a competent and considerate medical professional who wants to make sure one is appropriately cared for in our for-profit health system. I highly recommend Dr Shaffer’s care.
