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 love Dr.Shassberger. He has never made me feel not heard. I have been through 2 pregnancies with seeing him. I have zero complaints as he has always been encouraging and informative to me.

I had a bunch of issues going on with me. I mentioned a concern about how painful sex was. I got a lecture in front of his students about how much husband needs to 'prep' me better. went to another dr and had surgery...it was stage 2 endometriosis.

Uninterested in finding a cure
When I visited Dr. Shassberger for the first time, he told me 'Gross.' when I told him I hadn't had a period in 6 months and wanted to get my period back. Since then, he cannot tell me how it is caused because I do not fall under the case of 99% of PCOS patients and is more interested in pushing pills than finding out the source of my issue.

Very attentive and thorough
I am one that only goes to a dr when necessary and this is my 2nd round of visits with him. The first round being about 4 years ago. It's difficult for a woman to be comfortable with a male dr but he is very classy and well spoken with a calm demeanor that oozes respect and knowledge. He speaks to the point and waits for questions then answers concisely so that not only do you know your diagnosis/prognosis but you leave feeling educated in your matter. This site says he studied at a Veterinarian school. I showed him. He had never seen this sight and cares not about such things as they are trivial to him. His local reputation speaks for itself. My friend recommended him years ago. I recommend him as well. I am 55 and have seen a few in my lifetime. My favorite is a tie between Dr. Shassberger and my female "gooney doc" in Ohio. I don't care that he is male. I care more that he is locally respected, university entrusted & willing to teach students; and of course I give my permission!!!
