How likely are you to recommend Dr. Shaw?
Dr. Shaw was very professional and caring as he listened carefully to what I was currently experiencing, and asked important questions to understand my medical history and concerns better. Given the severity of my situation and the factors of my own doing, Dr. Shaw had a very concerning, stern, and medically sound conversation with me about the importance of managing my blood pressure, the life-long effect, and the detrimental outcome.I was very reluctant to be admitted into the hospital for overnight observation (as that was my second time ever), still, with Dr. Shaw’s initial care and conversation, I took his medical advice and agreed. Dr. Shaw treated my hypertension and my other symptoms and diagnoses that initially made me go into the ER; which gave me immediate relief. I was truly given the best care by Dr. Shaw and the entire WMCER team who took care of me during my stay.
