Dr. Shafer is by far the best PCP I've ever had. He shows genuine concern for my well being and takes the time to listen and respond to all my concerns.

Dr. Shafer really went the extra mile to take into account my particular life style and fashion my prescription accordingly. He even did further research after I left and came up with a more desirable option that he called and discussed with me
