Very thorough. I never felt rushed. Very good "bedside manners"
Dr. Shaw and his team were great! In fact, everyone I had contact with at Ortho Illinois has been fabulous! This practice is top notch. They run the practice like a well oiled machine. Every time I called them they answered or called me back a reasonable amount of time, I received an appointment confirmation immediately, I never had to wait more than couple minutes for my appointment once I arrived at their office, and I very doctor I saw took the time to ensure I understood my aliment and the treatment they were advising. I have a herniated disk that n my lower spine and, being unaware if what was wrong, suffered for months. One week later, after I started seeing the physicians at Ortho Illinois, I feel like a new person! Dr Shaw injected a cortisone shot yesterday, at today I work up with no pain at all! Highly Recommend this group to anyone who is suffering needlessly from undiagnosed back pain!
Dr. Shah was very personable, listened to everything I said attentively and professional.
Dr. Shah and his staff listened to my issues and made good recommendations. Highly recommend!!
