During this visit Dr. Shaver wasn't really sure about the diagnosis the ER gave. She wanted to follow up with me to be sure.

With Dr shaver it is me and her making the decisions discussing the issues and seeing what's best for me that's why I love her because she listens to every single solitary concern even if it's nothing this lady has been in my life for for 40 years and I'm just going to say one thing about her she is a doctor that everyone would want to visit because of a beautiful bedside Manor concerning hard and great conversationalist she gets straight to the point and she treats me like I'm her family I hope family comes to her because we truly love her and the staff addresses everything and I must say this again that's one of the best teams I've seen in many many many many many many business at different doctors I will never ever stop seeing her unless she retires or leave I refer all of my friends to her because she's that good
