Patient Reviews
Oct 19, 2022
I have been a patient of Dr. Shaffer for about fifthteen years. He is a fantastic doctor. His is very caring for his patients. He takes time to listen to you and explain what he advises to do to take care of you. He stays up to date on new treatments. I am very thankful that he is my gastroenterologist. His nurse, Lisa Peoples is great also. I highly recommend them. All the staff are nice at the Pilot Place office.
