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.

Dr.Shayfer is straight forward and gives clear explanations that are easy to understand. He doesn't waste your time. When I broke my arm, his office gave me an appointment that afternoon. When I came in for a consultation about about achy knee, i also got a timely appointment. He's good about answering questions. He does have a busy office and you may have to wait. For the sake of an accurate diagnosis and expert treatment, I don't mind the wait. I would recommend him without hesitation.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Shayfer?
Dr. Shayfer is one of the best, knowledgeable doctors I've ever been to. I would recommend him to anyone seeking an orthopedist. He may not be overly warm and fuzzy, but that's what teddy bears are for not doctors. I would much rather have his techinical knowledge than a teddy bear.
