Great appt! Very upbeat and lively. On the first visit, I was seen by the technicians and dr’s assistants. Very informative. During the 2nd visit, I was visited by the dr. Extremely informative however it felt slightly rushed. I’m assuming earlier, less busy appts allow for more time. Hoping future appts aren’t as rushed. But don’t be discouraged, all has been going well.

The doctor is friendly and extremely proficient. A great listener and communicator. Her staff is well trained and friendly. They are caring and want to make sure you are comfortable at all times. I told several of my friends about her. The equipment is up to date and the office is nice and inviting. I enjoyed my visit and I look forward to hearing more about my exams and her planned treatment for me. I travel about 45 minutes to get to the office, but I'm honestly fine with it. I'd rather travel a long distance for a great doctor.

Dr. Shair is very knowledgeble and explains every step clearly. (you clearly understand what she is doing it is painless and you definitely feel that your health is first with her.) I have had issues with pain and swelling on my legs for years. Dr. Shair has given my legs a new start. I already feel much better, legs even look much better as unsightly green veins are disappearing. Dr. Shair makes a point to personally follow up after each procedure and answers even very late at night. I can not thank enough for Dr. Shair
