Moving from another State, I feared it would be difficult to find a doctor I cared for as much as my previous PCP the past 40+ years. But I found her! Dr. Shell is a compassionate, patient, attentive, caring and exceptional at her profession. I have already recommended her to several people I know. So grateful to have her as my PCP.
