He was dismissive, didn't listen very well, and the appointment ended with me leaving in tears. I had to ask a lot of questions to get information out of him, and even then he never answered me directly and talked in circles. I think once the issue was resolved revealed to not be surgical and "just tendinitis" he simply treated the appointment as perfunctory. It wasn't even until the end when I actually asked did I get a specific diagnosis of what kind of tendinitis, but then he never explained anything about it and just handed me a sheet. He seemed taken aback by me actually asking questions. I got cortisone shots and was given no information about side effects or after care. It was a terrible experience.

Dr. Valeriy Shubinets was very attentive to my concerns and explained everything in great detail. He offered me a few options to begin treatment beginning with the least invasive. I look forward to seeing him for my return visit

He explained everything that was going to happen. Surgery was perfect and no pain afterwards. He got my finger straightened out and it works like it should.
