Care is professional and the relationship built with patients is comforting.

Annual Well Woman Exam

I waited for 50 minutes to be seen Shimer herself is great. The scheduling is terrible. I waited for so long. Staff asked me about medication that was prescribed by the office. Office staff double books.

Pellets (Hormone Therapy)

Dr Shimer always takes her time to speak with me about my concerns and issues and speaks in a way that understandable and relatable. She is always offering options but not pushy or aggressive about it. She is on the forefront of the industry and shares insights when they make sense for her patients. Her staff is also always helpful and courteous.

Dr. Shimer provided me with insight on fasting and how much protein I need to be focused on daily.

Although I adore Dr. Shimer and Twyla, the front office staff is not friendly and/or welcoming. Nobody says anything to me, not even “hello” when I sign in. The first smile and acknowledgement occurs when Twyla opens the door to take me back to the exam room.
