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.

I was treated by Dr. Shea at the Birmingham VA Medical Center, she listened attentively to all of my concerns and I was treated with the best care in a long while at the BHVAMC. I was admitted through the ER., and she took care of all my needs and concerns. I am so releived that she is there. I have a lot of medical conditons that most Dr. just write off as Mental. Dr. Shea help me to navigate through all of the Red Tape and personally organized all of my up coming treatments and tests.

I see Dr Shea at the VA Med Ctr. She is a very good listener and doesn't rush the visit. I trust her completely. She is a great Doctor that I would recommend to others.
