Dr. Shin was amazing. Super courteous and knowledgeable. Being in the medical field, I feel like she took her time getting to know me as a first time patient and assess me thoroughly. Easy to communicate with and seems like she really wants to be accessible to her patients. Would definitely recommend to anyone
Verified patient
Extremely knowledgeable. I’ve seen 6 different specialists in 3 years to no definite diagnosis. This is the closest I’ve come to reaching a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. She takes her time with you and covers all the baseline tests and questions to ensure she’s diagnosing you correctly.
