Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2023
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.
