Anything positive you can say about a doctor…say it triple for Dr S.
Always confident and grateful ... Thank you!
Great communicator with a sense of humor
The best.
Having a problem with your eyes is scary. Dr Shakin explained the issue, assuaged my fears, and is not so quick to laser or perform surgery for very minor issues.
Thorough and knowledgeable. Very kind and gentle! A wonderful doctor!
