Was very well pleased.
Dr. Saelinger-Shafer never makes me feel rushed; always listens to my concerns and acts on them. She only works in the office part time, but she always monitors things on her days off and conveys test results, answers my emails, and quickly responds to me as she is aware of her patient’s concerns, anxiety. She’s the best.
Dr. Saelinger- Shafer is very thorough when asking about any health issues I may have. She takes time to explain test results. She is familiar with all of my health issues. If she ever ran behind the scheduled time she would apologize. I could not find another Doctor that I could respect or admire more than Dr. Saelinger-Shafer.
