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.

An amazing Doctor and Angel
Dr Shin is an amazing doctor. She has been incredibly effective in controlling my chronic pain mostly without addictive medications. She is an almost magical diagnostician. Her knowledge of the body and her listening skills make her truly a treasure. I have been her patient as well as my husband and 2 of my grown children. I recommend her highly!

Dr. Shin Is truly a gift from God. Is the best listener and really knows what she’s doing she has the best method to make you feel brand new I had pop the disk and had pain radiating off my head and shoulders and could barely move and she gave me a trigger point injection and instantly I felt better, she is the best doctor and a straight up with what needs to be done she does not sugarcoat anything like other doctors if you truly want to be pain-free and feel better this is definitely the place. She uses strapping for muscle strength and alignment which is truly amazing, great with knowing exactly what needs to be done she explained and recommends everything unlike other doctors in the past. Altogether the trigger point injection with the strapping and giving me the proper exercise so straightening my core has made me feel brand new again. Highly recommend!!!

If I could give 10 stars, I would. My life of chronic pain is over! She LISTENS. After 3 yrs., 5 specialists and no relief for muscle spasms, I was skeptical.... Dr Shin found the problem on 1st visit and confirmed the diagnosis by MRI. She is Super smart, compassionate and detail oriented. Not rushed. She put the pieces of my puzzle together and I have hope again. Treatment plan is working already and i am so grateful to her. I'm not typically a review writer, but something this positive deserves to be shared.

Dr. Shin is the most amazing doctor. She has a holistic approach. After years of physical therapy, doing exercises, yoga, massage, surgery on my shoulder, Dr. Shin has looked at how my whole body is coordinating, not just one area. Finally I am getting my back straightened out, the arthritis is subsiding and I feel years younger!

Mira Shin is the worst doctor I’ve experienced in my life. Her bedside manners are awful. She is disgustingly rude and disrespectful. She only wants to loudly talk over you and assert some sort of authority. She does not listen to her patients or care about pain. She chastises you like a child and acts like she’s a gift from God. Her receptionist has better beside manners than Mira. Mira does not care to keep patients, and will tell you to leave even though she’s the rude one! She is unreasonable and not accommodating to patients needs. I was 5 minutes late for an appointment because I struggled to get ready one particular day due to my pain. She acted as if I had absolutely not shown up at all and came in with a whole plate of food. She’s absolutely ridiculous wnd unreasonable! She’s also a liar and claims her patients say things that they don’t. She do not keep proper notes or remember important details. She needs to be investigated. Stay away from this office!

Dr. Shin helped me recover from a back injury. She is a talented physician, very good at her specialty. Unfortunately she did not provide medical documentation- visit notes, treatment plans, etc to my disability company. My claim was denied pending receipt of her documentation. They were requested November 2019-February 2020 and they have not been received. My employer advised me that I will need to repay disability pay for the months I was absent from work. Multiple calls and letters from both myself and my disability company have not resulted in documents being sent. I left voicemail messages with her office of my situation, without a response. I asked if I could pick them up and send them overnight mail at my own expense, no response. In addition, 7-10 appointments have been cancelled or rescheduled due to her personal emergencies and/or illness.

Very unprofessional. Turns off her phones whenever she wants, doesn’t answer messages, and both her and her assistant have shockingly horrible attitudes. She is quite unstable as well, with no organization nor ANY plan even after being seen 4 times. Gave false information regarding ER respsonsibities, “I’m begging you”, she says my partner and I, “be threatening and record them” to demand MRIs (although he was stable) “Threaten to sue”! This woman shouldn’t be in practice!

An outstanding physician. Dr. Shin will take the time to listen first, formulate an effective treatment and then apply it with the upmost professionalism and care. A healer in every sense of the word.

Dr. Mira Shin is a miracle worker! After 2 days of walking art fairs for work my feet and back were killing me. I honestly didn't think I would be able to finish the week. I went to see her and she diagnosed my posture and spine in minutes. Then she wrapped and taped my back and feet to correct the imbalances. The next day I was a new man and was able to finish the weeks worth of trade shows without any back pain or blisters on my feet. My body thanks you!!!
