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 highly recommend Dr. Shannarose Guma
Dr. Shannarose actually listens to her patients and always takes the time to do a good thorough visit, I appreciate that tremendously. I leave with the proper information as how to handle my health issues and answers to my questions.

One of the two best doctors I've ever had
She listens. There is no topic I'd be embarassed to bring up with her. A visit is an interactive discussion.

Now at Mercy Personal Physicians at Columbia
Dr. Guma has been my primary care doctor for more than ten years. She is always cheerful and professional and explains treatment thoroughly to me.

I miss you
She was the best doctor that I have ever had. She listened, she cried with me and listened to my every need and concern. She genuinely cared I felt for me and everything I went through. I miss her so much and she helped save my life. I am forever going to remember her and I wish she would come back.

The Worst
Dr Guma is the worst doctor I've ever had! When requesting referrals for an MRI she told me they were "A waste of my money" and denied me patient care. She would only offer to send me to Physical Therapy even though my employment has me in a different state every week so this was not an option. She does not listen to her patients needs. Luckily my new provider got me the MRI I needed and found the problem I suspected. I will never visit this office again.

I went to the doctors this time just for my annual physical and medicine refills. I’ve been a patient of Dr. GUMA‘s for close to eight years. She was the one who discovered I had hypothyroidism. She is always available for me. She spends as much time as you need with her. Her bedside manner is professional yet caring and empathetic. It is actually a pleasure to go to Dr. GUMA. Some doctors I have been to it’s dreadful. I wanted to say more but I ran out of characters thank you Dr. GUMA for caring for me for so many years

Dr. Guma is caring, detailed oriented, friendly and compassionate about her profession and her patients. She doesn't just hear you, she actually listens. I highly recommend anyone searching for a Primary Care Provider to look no further. You couldn't make a better choice than to choose her with your health care. I followed her from the city to Columbia because I trust her and the commute is nothing compared to my health and knowing I am cared for by the best!!!

I saw Dr. Guma 3-4 times. Was new to the area and asked for prescriptions that my former doc had prescribed. I had been prescribed a controlled pain medication that I had been promised was non-addictive but it was. So when I asked for this, I was scolded for taking this med; generally humiliated and also given a therapist referral. I realize it was probably her lack of insight, familiarity with me,license paranoia? And if I had not been talked down to in a harsh manner, I would have understood and not been so offended. Obviously, that was the end of this relationship. Being a new widow also at this time, it was very disappointing to feel such little compassion from this doc.
