Dr. Shelley Williams is a smart and caring physician who listens to her patients. She has a wide network of other professionals she can send us to when a specialist is needed. I recommend her highly.
I was told by my pharmacist that the office should consider using e-Prescribe as it's more efficient than calling it in.

Verified patient
Dr. Williams took excellent care of me! She explained what she was doing, step by step, told me exactly what to expect, and referred me to other doctors who could provide the care I needed.
Verified patient
I have seen Dr. Williams before and She has always been very kind! Unfortunately her front staff member, in particular Stephanie, was very rude on the phone with me for no reason. I almost never leave reviews but as a former patient, her behavior and unprofessionalism are unacceptable. I will never visit this office again.
Verified patient
Dr. Williams is an excellent doctor with a great professional manner. She was very attentive to my health concerns. I feel like she took my concerns seriously and provided me with sound advice. Her waiting times are usually pretty low, so you’ll be able to see her quickly. I’m very happy with the service she provides.
She is always a pleasure to see!
Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Williams is always great. She is patient with questions and in helping her patients understand their health issues.
Verified patient
I never met Dr. Williams before this visit. She was super-busy but still made time to advocate on my behalf when I had trouble getting an authorization from my insurance company for a test that she wanted. She was working with very little help (probably because of the pandemic), yet she was greeting the patients by name, taking phone calls in both English and Spanish, and seeing patients while also doing their paperwork (!). I've never seen anyone working so hard. It's clear she was trying her best to help people who needed it. I do think she needs more staff (!), but she was a hardworking doctor really trying to help people. I think I saw one of the reviews called her "no nonsense," and I would say that's very accurate. She's interested but probably too busy for small talk. I sure did appreciate her help last week.
I actually Love her! She is the best!

I was really nervous going in, but Dr. Williams and the rest of her staff were warm, accommodating, and really helped put me at ease with their good humor and information. I left after the appointment feeling so much calmer and with a better understanding.
Verified patient
Waited in the waiting room for a hour just to be seen for 6 minutes. Given medication that didn’t treat what I had going on had to be prescribed new medication.
The best!!!

Very nice, professional and timely
