Wow! This was my first time seeing Dr. Crawford and I am incredibly impressed. She listened to every word I had to say about my knee problem. She gave my knee a thorough exam and then explained all my options to me. I decided on the most aggressive option and Dr. Crawford took care of my knee in a single visit. She explained every step of the procedure as she performed it and kept me comfortable throughout. I am offering a 5-star rating only because I can’t give 6. Highly recommend!

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Great doc but…location is awful. I knew it was in same building as Urgent Care but had no idea they shared same lobby. Waiting room is shared and small enough to where we were subject to close proximity to 3 people who were obviously sick and constantly coughing and sneezing! Unfortunately I will not return for another appointment because of this.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Shelby is a great doctor. She's passionate about what she does and it shows through the care she gives to her patients. The one time after my visit I wasn't to sure about something so I called and left a message on the nurse phone. When I got the call back. It was Dr.Shelby herself. I have never had the actual doctor call me back and talk to me. Always been the nurse so I thought that was awesome.
