NP Emily Robertson-Shelby was one of my favorite healthcare providers I’ve seen in a long time. She was very personable, which made it easy to feel comfortable with her. She gave me a ton of information about the next steps of my health and made sure I had the proper check ups for my age and needs. She was also very concise with her information and she was on time and efficient. I was in and out in under 30 minutes. I really appreciate medical providers like her and I would definitely see her again and would recommend her as a provider.

I love Dr. Emily! She has a gentle, attentive, and knowledgeable bedside manner that always puts me at ease. I'm not the best at communicating/remembering all of my symptoms, but she is great at asking thorough questions to get to the bottom of what's really going on. Would definitely recommend!!

Nurse Practitioner Emily Robertson-Shelby was kind, friendly, professional and extremely thorough with me. Emily has a warm, easy-going bedside manner and I was very satisfied with her exam, quick lab report and prescriptions sent to my pharmacy.
July 1, 2024Mary Anne B.Verified patient
Emily is absolutely wonderful, and I'm so glad I found her. She always listens to me and any concerns I have and is very knowledgeable. However, what I love the most is she's not afraid to say when she doesn't know something or wants to do more research. Medicine is always evolving, so having a doctor with humility who is willing to go the extra mile is everything.
