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.

Excellent MD
Dr. Shay has been my gynecologist for a few years now and is the absolute best I have ever had in my 47 years. He is kind, thorough, intelligent and pleasant. He takes time to listen and answer all my questions. All this and somehow he is NEVER late…a first for me with any MD. The office staff is also excellent as well. I would highly recommend him to anybody.

Excellent care, attentive, & knowledgeable
I have seen Dr. Shay a couple of times, when my regular GYN was away and I needed to keep up with my appointment/checkup schedule. He always makes sure you understand what is going on throughout the visit, and has great bedside manner. Definitely recommend.

Great visit with Dr. Shay! Would recommend!
What stood out to me was he's not my doctor that I normally would see. I appreciate Dr. Shay mannerisms and for being knowledgeable about my care. I left my visit feeling better than I came. I would recommend him for sure. Thanks Dr. Shay!

Horrible experience. The staff is inept.
I waited an hour because they forgot about me. Then the doctor did not give me a referral for my ultrasound so I had to call the office from the ultrasound facility to get the referral. It took 20 minutes for someone to finally answer the phone. She said info was going to be faxed right away. It took them 2 hours and another phone call for them to finally fax it over. The staff is completely inept. I would never go back.

Consultation
I was searching for a gynecologist who is also a surgeon with experience removing ovarian cysts. To make a long story short - I'm TTC, and my fertility doctor advised I need to have an ovarian cyst removed before I begin fertility treatments. I found Dr Shay, and called his office to request a surgical consultation the next day. The office is bright, clean, and open. His staff is professional, pleasant, and efficient. Dr Shay was very kind, easy to talk to, and professional. During my consult, he explained I needed to see an endometriosis specialist after reviewing my case. He was kind enough to refer me to providers who can help me, and reassured me that I'll be ok. While I already have an OB that I like working with, I would still recommend Dr Shay, as it is very apparent he truly cares for his patients, whether they are new or current. I would definitely keep him in mind should I need to see another OB in the future.
