What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr. Shelby Crawford is an excellent orthopedic doctor. She took the time to discuss my condition. She treated me with an ultra sound injection for my injured shoulder. This was 100% better than receiving a shot. I loved having a follow up with her to go over the recent Physical Therapy I received. I am so glad that she has come to Alpena. I will continue to see her when I have a need for an orthopedic issue. I highly recommend her.
