I feel like it's hit or miss whether Dr. Schafer will listen to me. But dealing with her office and the nonsense of messaging on the northshore app with this office is beyond frustrating.

I saw great reviews for this physician and it was recommended for me to to go see an allergist to see what can be causing my skin irritation but I felt like I was directed to the wrong department and should have seen a dermatologist instead? I also felt after I was assessed they told me they'd follow up with dermatology and try to figure out my problem so they can help be feel better and reduce whatever was going onI basically have not heard back nor do I feel like they cared about my problemand I think that's the worsetrying to find a physician who actually cares about your health

I believe Dr. Shaffer, finally diagnosed my problem, after going to many other doctors and tests. She is an excellent doctor, I wish I would of seen her years ago.

I am very pleased and impressed. The doctor explained things clearly, listened to specific questions and concerns, and provided thoughtful and insightful responses.

Dr. Shafer was callous and dismissive. The only physical exam or vitals taken was a peek into my right nostril with her otoscope (that wasn't working well per her comment). Then she felt my throat for swollen glands. All in less than 30 seconds. She quickly "diagnosed" me with "manifesting my own symptoms". She said "this past year has been traumatizing too many and our bodies go into fight or flight mode". And that I "should consider therapy." She looked at some of my recent health history results and said "Covid didn't cause the narrowing of your focus". I was very clear I was there for my ear nose and throat issues that have been ongoing for six months. I had no interest in her diagnosing my back pain. I told her I had Covid in September of last year and have been sick ever cents so I'm considered a long haul her up. She immediately dismissed that and said that "Covid could just kick off other issues that were dormant in my body previously". I understand that, but after that comment, she had no interest in trading my symptoms. I left the appointment feeling mentally deflated and upset. She should not be seeing Post Covid patients at all as she is completely unaware of the toll it has taken on our lives. To tell a sick patient that their symptoms are all in their head is preposterous and unprofessional. I will be telling everyone to never set foot in that office ever.
