Dr. R. Shaffer is a great doctor. I was very impressed of her professionalism, readiness to help, great organizational skills. I received her phone call on Sunday informing me about my tests results. Very promptly contacted my urologist and they together developed plan of treatment. Dr. R. Shaffer is a brilliant doctor.

Dr. Shaffer and her partner, [staff], both visited me in the hospital last month. They were very encouraging, very empathic, and very confident the treatment they prescribed would work. It has already made a big difference. I have full confidence in them and appreciate how they interact with me and my wife, who is present at every visit.
