    Dr. Shirley knows about my daughter's medical conditions and made executive decisions based on her symptoms and our outlying concerns

    We have given Dr. Shirley multiple chances to meet our needs and we are done trying to transfer to other provider.

    It was a health check up, so routine. Doctor was thorough and asked questions, really checking on physical and mental health.

      She was so good w/my 2 year old who was very scared (she was in the ER the day prior and got stitches) so she was very skeptical at her apt. Dr. Shirley got down on her level, spoke to her about Lion King, and she warmed up to her.

      She was great w/both my 6 mo. old and 2 year old. Very informative, included me in the decisions, non judgmental, and very sweet.

      Dr. Shirley makes sure I don't have any more questions for her before. She leaves and always ask if I need anything.

      I asked for a referral to GI for recurring constipation. Although she did give us this, she made me feel that this was unnecessary. With a family history of Celiac, this is something that's always on my mind, and it definitely doesn't seem unwarranted. It definitely felt like I wasn't being heard.

      Dr. Shirley has always taken great care of my son and listens with an empathic ear. She always makes great recommendations that make sense, and explains things thoroughly. My son says he feels really comfortable with her.
