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 and my entire family (husband and married daughter) go to Dr. Schaffer. He is great in that he is friendly, explains everything very thoroughly, and is interested in knowing if you have any questions. I have recommended him to several of my friends and they have all gone to him and were very impressed with him and his services.

Ir was the appt. from hell! I checked in but then was ignored for 2+ hrs. while everyone after me was taken care of. They kept telling me I was next but I kept getting overlooked. Even the other patients were making comments. One sweet lady refused to go in until I was seen! I was the LAST one to be seen that morning!. After all that wait (to have a toe nail removed) he wouldn't do it-told me to come back after my vacation! No apologies, no explanation for the wait. I NEVER WENT BACK!
