Dr. Shen is very polite, patient, and respectful. He asks questions and he listens, and he also takes time to answer questions and explain anything unclear. I did not feel rushed, dismissed, or like a case file. I feel he truly cares about his patients' health and wellbeing.

My first time seeing him. Too early to say.
Verified patient
Great visit. Right to the point
Verified patient
Horrible! Waited for 30 minutes to be seen and when I was seen his bedside manner was horrible, I went for a first time visit because of new health insurance I spoke of a medication I was on and he was quick to tell me that he would prescribe it but would not give me a health exam until the next visit. Then he said that I shouldn’t be on the medicine if I’m not on birth control. I’ve been taking this medicine for the last 10 years! I told him I’ve been on it and sexually active with no issue and he said “so you were having sex at 18?” The level of un professionalism was unbelievable. When I told him I didn’t want to be on birth control since I am engaged, he asked to refer me to a psychiatrist! I didn’t even go through with the wellness exam and walked out. Do not recommend!!!!!!
