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 consulted Doctor Shannon on both of my rotator cuff surgeries. His training and credentials are impeccable, and his patients recommend him highly. I can see why. He took the time to review my MRIs and explain them to me and all of my treatment options. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and I have recommended a number of my friends to him for orthopedic consultations. If I am in need of orthopedic services in the future, Dr. Shannon is the only doctor that I would trust.

Did great with surgery but wouldn't listen to my complaint of how my knee popped during physical therapy due to the staff doing the wrong exercises. Now I'm waiting on a new MRI to see if the graph tore.

This is the best doctor I have ever encountered in my life. He takes his time explaining all your options and appears to genuinely care about his patients. I refered a co-worker to him and she had the same feeling about him.
