    The doctor was very responsive and attentive and listened to everything I had to say and helped me make the right decision. She is an excellent provider and I appreciated all her time that she spent with me. Although I am still waiting for the facility to call me for schedule my surgery. It's the only negative I have to say. Thank you.

    Dr Shy is knowledgeable, professional and i have complete trust in her judgment. She is easy to get hold of and when my last mammogram showed an area of concern she was right in touch with me giving guidance on how to proceed. I would highly recommend her!

    Dr shy is the kindest doctor I know. She is patient and very skilled in her profession. I had not seen her in over 2 years but she remembered so much about my case. I have 100% confidence in her.
