Patient Reviews
Oct 12, 2019
My experience with Dr. Shanks and his staff is a very pleasant one. I had a very rare blood condition and was in serious trouble. From the first visit he was informative and answered my questions, and told me what the next steps were. I had family present during one of his hospital visits and he was very eager to help them understand the disease and treatment. He correctly diagnosed my issue and started treating it immediately. We are all pleased with my progress up to this point. I am very happy with my outcome considering the serious condition I was in. On a side note: He has a great sense of humor if you do, I highly recommend Dr. Shanks L.Simon Vadnais Heights 10/11/2019
