Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Do Not Recommend
Performed an ER surgery and neglected to implement a drain, which caused excruciating pain. I ended up in another ER two weeks later to implement a drain, and then two more surgeries were required to correct the original procedure. I do not recommend Dr. Shin.

The absolute worst. Immediately wanted to do a major surgery, wouldn't consider a less aggressive approach. Never bothered speaking with my wife regarding my condition, never really fully examined me. Does not instill patient confidence; thank you God I fired him before he did surgery on me.

My experiences with Dr. Shin have all been positive. He is an excellent surgeon and has really done some life saving surgeries on myself and other patients that we have sent to him. I highly recommend Dr. Shin!
