Absolutely the best practitioner I have ever had! Besides his educational and publishing background, he is very attentive, professional and caring in his delivery of service. Dr. Shovelin follows up on every issue proactively which prevented serious issues from developing in my case.

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
