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.

Wouldn't refill my prescription when I was out of
I am a long time patient of Dr. Shih. I was in Florida helping my daughter with her move to Tampa to start a new life. I called Dr.Shih to refill a prescription that needs to be called in every month. This is medication that you will have a horrific withdraw symptoms Dr. Shih refused to fill my prescription, stating I needed to be seen in order for her to fill my prescription. I explained to the office staff that I was in Florida moving my daughter and I couldn't just fly back to see Dr. Shih. Still the doctor wouldn't refill my prescription. This is going to send me into withdrawal. I can't believe this was happening to me!

What a breath of fresh air..Dr Shih i actually takes time to explain things, even if she has to do some research herself. I really like this doctor and the office itself. The staff is friendly and really gets you in ASAP. It's about time a good doctor and a good staff...what more can one ask for.
